Strategies for Successful Over-Expression of Human Membrane Transport Systems Using Bacterial Hosts: Future Perspectives

Michele Galluccio et al.

Summary: Membrane transport systems play a crucial role in maintaining cell homeostasis and drug interactions. E. coli is a preferred host for expressing human membrane proteins, but their hydrophobicity and structural differences pose challenges. This review summarizes various strategies for expressing human transport systems in bacteria.

Bacterial over-expression of functionally active human CT2 (SLC22A16) carnitine transporter

Michele Galluccio et al.

Summary: This study successfully expressed the carnitine transporter CT2 in Escherichia coli and found that the recombinant protein is capable of transporting carnitine. These findings have significant implications for the basic research on membrane transporters and their applications in human health.

The Role of Cystine/Glutamate Antiporter SLC7A11/xCT in the Pathophysiology of Cancer

Nidhi Jyotsana et al.

Summary: SLC7A11 is an antiporter that mediates the exchange of extracellular cystine for intracellular glutamate. It plays diverse functional roles in maintaining redox homeostasis and immune system function, and is associated with the development and drug resistance of diseases such as cancer. In this review, the focus is on discussing its molecular functions and therapeutic strategies in gastrointestinal cancers.

Cystine transporter SLC7A11/xCT in cancer: ferroptosis, nutrient dependency, and cancer therapy

Pranavi Koppula et al.

Summary: The overexpression of SLC7A11 promotes tumor growth while causing significant metabolic reprogramming costs for cancer cells. Cancer cells with high expression of SLC7A11 exhibit glucose- and glutamine-dependency, presenting potential metabolic vulnerabilities for therapeutic targeting.

Molecular basis for redox control by the human cystine/glutamate antiporter system xc-

Joanne L. Parker et al.

Summary: The study presents the cryo-EM structure of human system xc- in both apo and glutamate bound states, discussing its cystine transport mechanism and highlighting its potential as a target for anticancer therapies due to its role in cellular redox homeostasis. The research shows an allosteric mechanism for ligand discrimination in system xc(-) supported by molecular dynamics and cell-based assays, establishing a mechanism for cystine transport in human cells.
