Molecular transport properties of sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporters
The Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporter (NaDC1) plays important roles in absorption of citric acid cycle intermediates from the intestinal and renal tubular lumen. NaDC1 influences the homeostasis of citrate, which may be associated with the formation of kidney stones. The studies in this dissertation …

Substrate specificity and functional characterization of sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporters
Transport of dicarboxylates across the plasma membrane is mediated by the Na+/dicarboxylate cotransporters (NaDCs) belonging to the SLC13 gene family. These transporters play important roles in the homeostasis of dicarboxylates. The studies in this dissertation focused on two aspects of the NaDCs: …
