FUNCTIONAL INSIGHTS INTO HRG-1-MEDIATED HEME TRANSPORT
(2012)
Heme is an essential cofactor involved in various biological processes including oxygen transport, xenobiotic detoxification, oxidative metabolism, gas sensing, circadian rhythm, signal transduction, microRNA processing ...
LONG-RANGE SIGNALING AT THE INTESTINAL-NEURAL AXIS PROMOTES ORGANISMAL HEME HOMEOSTASIS IN C. ELEGANS
(2014)
Metazoans synthesize and regulate intracellular heme in a cell autonomous manner although genetic evidence in vertebrates suggests that cell non-autonomous mechanisms may exist at the organismal level. In <italic>C. ...
Genetic Suppressors of mrp-5 Lethality in C. elegans
(2016)
Heme is an essential cofactor in numerous proteins, but is also cytotoxic. Thus, directed pathways must exist for regulating heme homeostasis. C. elegans is a powerful genetic animal model for elucidating these pathways ...
FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF HEME TRANSPORTERS IN ZEBRAFISH
(2017)
Hrg1 and Mrp5 are identified as eukaryotic heme importer and exporter, respectively. Two Hrg1 paralogs have been annotated in zebrafish genome, Hrg1a (Slc48a1b) and Hrg1b (Slc48a1a) with 84% homology in protein sequences. ...
