Genotype-dependent effects of inhibitors of the organic cation transporter, OCT1: predictions of metformin interactions
Common genetic variants of the liver-specific human organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1; SLC22A1) have reduced transport capacity for substrates such as the antidiabetic drug metformin. The effect of… Expand

A deep intronic mutation in FGB creates a consensus exonic splicing enhancer motif that results in afibrinogenemia caused by aberrant mRNA splicing, which can be corrected in vitro with antisense…
We previously described a novel homozygous point mutation (FGB c.115–600A>G) located deep within intron 1 of the fibrinogen beta gene (FGB), as a likely cause of afibrinogenemia. While this was the… Expand

Novel fibrinogen mutation γ314Thr→Pro (fibrinogen AI duPont) associated with hepatic fibrinogen storage disease and hypofibrinogenaemia
Mutation in fibrinogen genes may lead to quantitative or qualitative disorders that result in bleeding, thrombosis or hepatic fibrinogen storage disease. Only three mutations in the fibrinogen γ gene… Expand

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease: New Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Perspectives
Purpose of ReviewParkinson’s disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder, the aetiology of which is still largely unknown. Overwhelming evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction is a… Expand

Mutation in mitochondrial ribosomal protein S7 (MRPS7) causes congenital sensorineural deafness, progressive hepatic and renal failure and lactic acidemia.
Functional defects of the mitochondrial translation machinery, as a result of mutations in nuclear-encoded genes, have been associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) deficiencies.… Expand

The opt1 gene of Drosophila melanogaster encodes a proton-dependent dipeptide transporter.
We have cloned and characterized the opt1 gene of Drosophila melanogaster. This gene encodes a protein with significant similarity to the PTR family of oligopeptide transporters. The OPT1 protein is… Expand
