Research Abstract |
We successfully demonstrated that DAPI can be efficiently transported by both hMATEs, hMATE1 and hMATE2-K, and hOCT1. By taking advantage of its fluorescent nature, we developed a rapid assay system for the selection of inhibitors, which include potential substrates, of hMATEs and hOCT1.
