Isolation of a novel aquaglyceroporin from a marine teleost (Sparus auratus) Fu...
Santos, C. R. A.; Estêvão, M. D.; Fuentes, J.; Cardoso, J. C. R.; Fabra, M.; Passos, A. L.; Detmers, F. J.; Deen, P. M. T.; Cerdà, J.; Power, DeborahThe aquaporins (formerly called the major intrinsic protein family) are transmembrane channel proteins. The family includes the CHIP group, which are functionally characterised as water channels and the GLP group, which are specialised for glycerol transport. The present study reports the identification and characterisation of a novel GLP family member in a teleost fish, the sea bream Sparus auratus. A sea brea...
Evolution of the thyroid hormone-binding protein, transthyretin
Power, Deborah; Elias, N. P.; Richardson, S. J.; Mendes, J.; Soares, M. C.; Santos, C. R. A.Transthyretin (TTR) belongs to a group of proteins, which includes thyroxine-binding globulin and albumin, that bind to and transport thyroid hormones in the blood. TTR is also indirectly implicated in the carriage of vitamin A through the mediation of retinol-binding protein (RBP). It was first identified in 1942 in human serum and cerebrospinal fluid and was formerly called prealbumin for its ability to migra...
