1. SLC23A1, the gene encoding sodium-dependent vitamin C transport protein 1 (SVCT1) : regulation of transcription and its functional consequences

Creator:: Michels, Alexander Johannes
Abstract:: Vitamin C is an essential component of the human diet. Uptake of vitamin C in the cell is regulated by the function of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters (SVCTs). SVCT1 (encoded by the SLC23A1 gene) is expressed in the colon, liver and kidney, where it plays a vital role in determining...
