Abstract
B°AT1 transporter reconstituted in liposomes does not require collectrin for function. ⺠The transporter catalyses Gln-Na+ cotransport by random simultaneous mechanism. ⺠Methylmercury inactivates the transporter; N-acetylcysteine reverses this effect. ⺠A CXXC motif of B°AT1 close to the membrane is a possible binding site of mercurials.
