equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1(English)

• a sodium-independent transporter for purine and pyrimidine nucleosides and for some nucleobases. Nucleoside transporters are classified into two major classes, equilibrative bi-directional facilitators (ENTs) and Na+-dependent concentrative transporters (CNTs). Human ENT1 (hENT1, SLC29A1) was cloned from the placenta in 1996 and thus the first member to be characterized in the SLC29 family. ENT1 is a glycosylated protein that contains 456 amino acid residues (50 kDa). Its gene is located at the chromosomal region 6p21.1-21.2
