A novel proline, glycine: Kpositive symporter in midgut brush-border membrane vesicles from larval Manduca sexta

Rapid filtration assays were used to investigate alkali-cation-dependent uptake of proline and glycine into brush-border membrane vesicles from the midgut of the larval tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta. Proline symport was found mostly in posterior midgut vesicles, which suggests that the pro, gly: Kp...

Zusammenfassung:Rapid filtration assays were used to investigate alkali-cation-dependent uptake of proline and glycine into brush-border membrane vesicles from the midgut of the larval tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta. Proline symport was found mostly in posterior midgut vesicles, which suggests that the pro, gly: Kpositive symporter could be localized in this region of the midgut.
