  • Description Nucleobase cation symporter 2 family

Abstract

The nucleobase cation symporter 2 (NCS2) family, also known as the nucleobase ascorbate transporter(NAT) family, are a large family found in bacteria, fungi (except Saccharomyces cerevisiae), plants and mammals. Nucleobase transporter families have solute transport preferences among purines and pyrimidines. Members of this family often have overlapping but unique solute transport and binding profiles [ 1 ].
