Research Abstract |
Riboflavin transporters had been identified. The purpose of this study is to clarify the physiological role of RFT1 and its homologues. RFT3, which is expressed in the brain, was identified. The functional characteristics of RFTs were elucidated. Heterozygous deletion in the RFT1 gene was found. In addition, RFT genes were registered in the HGNC database. In conclusion, we obtained novel findings in the physiological role of RFTs.
