Equilibrative nucleobase transporter 1

Definition:

Sodium-independent purine-selective nucleobase transporter which mediates the equilibrative transport of extracellular purine nucleobases such as adenine, guanine and hypoxanthine. May regulate fatty acid (FA) transport in adipocytes, acting as a positive regulator of FA efflux and as a negative regulator of FA uptake (By similarity).; [Isoform 1]: Sodium-independent purine-selective nucleobase transporter which mediates the equilibrative transport of extracellular purine nucleobase adenine. Mediates the influx and efflux of the purine nucleobase analog drug 6-mercaptopurine across the membrane.; [Isoform 2]: Sodium-independent purine-selective nucleobase transporter which mediates the equilibrative transport of extracellular purine nucleobase adenine. Mediates the influx and efflux of the purine nucleobase analog drug 6-mercaptopurine across the membrane.
