Major Facilitator Superfamily; The Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) is a large and diverse group of secondary transporters that includes uniporters, symporters, and antiporters. MFS proteins facilitate the transport across cytoplasmic or internal membranes of a variety of substrates including ions, sugar phosphates, drugs, neurotransmitters, nucleosides, amino acids, and peptides. They do so using the electrochemical potential of the transported substrates. Uniporters transport a single substrate, while symporters and antiporters transport two substrates in the same or in opposite directions, respectively, across membranes. MFS proteins are typically 400 to 600 amino acids in length, and the majority contain 12 transmembrane alpha helices (TMs) connected by hydrophilic loops. The N- and C-terminal halves of these proteins display weak similarity and may be the result of a gene duplication/fusion event. Based on kinetic studies and the structures of a few bacterial superfamily members, GlpT (glycerol-3-phosphate transporter), LacY (lactose permease), and EmrD (multidrug transporter), MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement. Bacterial members function primarily for nutrient uptake, and as drug-efflux pumps to confer antibiotic resistance. Some MFS proteins have medical significance in humans such as the glucose transporter Glut4, which is impaired in type II diabetes, and glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT), which causes glycogen storage disease when mutated.

Solute carrier organic anion transporter 1B subfamily of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters; The Solute carrier organic anion transporter 1B (SLCO1B), also called organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B), subfamily is composed of two human proteins, OATP1B1 (encoded by SLCO1B1) and OATP1B3 (encoded by SLCO1B3), and one rodent member, OATP1B2 (encoded by Slco1b2). OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 are almost exclusively expressed on the basal side of hepatocytes in normal human organs. They both can accept a wide variety of structurally-unrelated compounds as substrates including clinically-important drugs such as hydroxymethylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), angiotensin II receptor blockers (sartans), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and anti-diabetes drugs (glinides). Loss-of-function mutations in both SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 genes result in the Rotor syndrome, a hereditary hyperbilirubinemia. The SLCO1B/OATP1B subfamily belongs to the Solute carrier organic anion transporter [SLCO, also called organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) or Solute carrier family 21] family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of transporters. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Organic Anion Transporter Polypeptide (OATP) family; This family consists of several eukaryotic Organic-Anion-Transporting Polypeptides (OATPs). Several have been identified mostly in human and rat. Different OATPs vary in tissue distribution and substrate specificity. Since the numbering of different OATPs in particular species was based originally on the order of discovery, similarly numbered OATPs in humans and rats did not necessarily correspond in function, tissue distribution and substrate specificity (in spite of the name, some OATPs also transport organic cations and neutral molecules). Thus, Tamai et al. initiated the current scheme of using digits for rat OATPs and letters for human ones. Prostaglandin transporter (PGT) proteins are also considered to be OATP family members. In addition, the methotrexate transporter OATK is closely related to OATPs. This family also includes several predicted proteins from Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster. This similarity was not previously noted. Note: Members of this family are described (in the Swiss-Prot database) as belonging to the SLC21 family of transporters.

sodium-independent organic anion transporter; The Organo Anion Transporter (OAT) Family (TC 2.A.60)Proteins of the OAT family catalyze the Na+-independent facilitated transport of organic anions such as bromosulfobromophthalein and prostaglandins as well as conjugated and unconjugated bile acids (taurocholate and cholate, respectively). These transporters have been characterized in mammals, but homologues are present in C. elegans and A. thaliana. Some of the mammalian proteins exhibit a high degree of tissue specificity. For example, the rat OAT is found at high levels in liver and kidney and at lower levels in other tissues. These proteins possess 10-12 putative a-helical transmembrane spanners. They may catalyze electrogenic anion uniport or anion exchange.

Solute carrier organic anion transporters of the Major Facilitator Superfamily of transporters; Solute carrier organic anion transporters (SLCOs) are also called organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) or SLC21 (Solute carrier family 21) proteins. They are sodium-independent transporters that mediate the transport of a broad range of endo- as well as xenobiotics. Their substrates are mainly amphipathic organic anions with a molecular weight of more than 300Da, although there are a few known neutral or positively charged substrates. These include drugs including statins, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, antibiotics, antihistaminics, antihypertensives, and anticancer drugs. SLCOs/OATPs can be classified into 6 families (SLCO1-6 or OATP1-6) and each family may have subfamilies (e.g. OATP1A, OATP1B, OATP1C). Within the subfamilies, individual members are numbered according to the chronology of their identification and if there is already an ortholog known, they are given the same number. For example, the first SLCO identified, is rat OATP1A1 (encoded by the Slco1a1 gene). The second SLCO identified is the first human SLCO from the same subfamily and is called OATP1A2 (encoded by the SLCO1A2 gene). There are 11 human SLCOs/OATPs. SLCOs belong to the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins, which are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.

Deletion of the SLCO5A1 gene has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Mesomelia-synostoses syndrome (MSS), a rare autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by mesomelic limb shortening, acral synostoses, and multiple congenital malformations. OATP5A1 may be a non-classical OATP which is involved in biological processes that require the reorganization of the cell shape, such as differentiation and migration. It seems to affect intracellular transport of drugs and may participate in chemoresistance of small cell lung cancer (SCLC by sequestration), rather than mediating cellular uptake. The SLCO5/OATP5 family belongs to the Solute carrier organic anion transporter [SLCO, also called organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) or Solute carrier family 21] family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of transporters.

Major Facilitator Superfamily; The Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) is a large and diverse group of secondary transporters that includes uniporters, symporters, and antiporters. MFS proteins facilitate the transport across cytoplasmic or internal membranes of a variety of substrates including ions, sugar phosphates, drugs, neurotransmitters, nucleosides, amino acids, and peptides. They do so using the electrochemical potential of the transported substrates. Uniporters transport a single substrate, while symporters and antiporters transport two substrates in the same or in opposite directions, respectively, across membranes. MFS proteins are typically 400 to 600 amino acids in length, and the majority contain 12 transmembrane alpha helices (TMs) connected by hydrophilic loops. The N- and C-terminal halves of these proteins display weak similarity and may be the result of a gene duplication/fusion event. Based on kinetic studies and the structures of a few bacterial superfamily members, GlpT (glycerol-3-phosphate transporter), LacY (lactose permease), and EmrD (multidrug transporter), MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement. Bacterial members function primarily for nutrient uptake, and as drug-efflux pumps to confer antibiotic resistance. Some MFS proteins have medical significance in humans such as the glucose transporter Glut4, which is impaired in type II diabetes, and glucose-6-phosphate transporter (G6PT), which causes glycogen storage disease when mutated.

Kazal type serine protease inhibitors and follistatin-like domains. Kazal inhibitors inhibit serine proteases, such as, trypsin, chyomotrypsin, avian ovomucoids, and elastases. The inhibitory domain has one reactive site peptide bond, which serves the cognate enzyme as substrate. The reactive site peptide bond is a combining loop which has an identical conformation in all Kazal inhibitors and in all enzyme/inhibitor complexes. These Kazal domains (small hydrophobic core of alpha/beta structure with 3 to 4 disulfide bonds) often occur in tandem arrays. Similar domains are also present in follistatin (FS) and follistatin-like family members, which play an important role in tissue specific regulation. The FS domain consists of an N-terminal beta hairpin (FOLN/EGF-like domain) and a Kazal-like domain and has five disulfide bonds. Although the Kazal-like FS substructure is similar to Kazal proteinase inhibitors, no FS domain has yet been shown to be a proteinase inhibitor. Follistatin-like family members include SPARC, also known as, BM-40 or osteonectin, the Gallus gallus Flik protein, as well as, agrin which has a long array of FS domains. The kazal-type inhibitor domain has also been detected in an extracellular loop region of solute carrier 21 (SLC21) family members (organic anion transporters) , which may regulate the specificity of anion uptake. The distant homolog, Ascidian trypsin inhibitor, is included in this CD.

Class 1 and Class 2 Glucose transporters (GLUTs) of the Major Facilitator Superfamily; This subfamily includes Class 1 and Class 2 glucose transporters (GLUTs) including Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 1 (SLC2A1, also called glucose transporter type 1 or GLUT1), SLC2A2-5 (GLUT2-5), SLC2A7 (GLUT7), SLC2A9 (GLUT9), SLC2A11 (GLUT11), SLC2A14 (GLUT14), and similar proteins. GLUTs are a family of proteins that facilitate the transport of hexoses such as glucose and fructose. There are fourteen GLUTs found in humans; they display different substrate specificities and tissue expression. They have been categorized into three classes based on sequence similarity: Class 1 (GLUTs 1-4, 14); Class 2 (GLUTs 5, 7, 9, and 11); and Class 3 (GLUTs 6, 8, 10, 12, and HMIT). GLUTs 1-5 are the most thoroughly studied and are well-established as glucose and/or fructose transporters in various tissues and cell types. GLUT proteins are comprised of about 500 amino acid residues, possess a single N-linked oligosaccharide, and have 12 transmembrane segments. They belong to the Glucose transporter -like (GLUT-like) family of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of membrane transport proteins. MFS proteins are thought to function through a single substrate binding site, alternating-access mechanism involving a rocker-switch type of movement.
