Component

Human SLC5A6 R123L protein variant

p.Arg123Leu SMVT protein studied after expression in human HuTu-80 and U87 cells; distinct from wild-type SLC5A6.

2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What it does

Every recorded relationship this component is part of, grouped by its role. Plain wording comes first; the technical statement follows.

Recorded relationships

What it acts on

  1. Expression of human SLC5A6 R123L failed to induce biotin uptake above control in HuTu-80 and U87 cells, whereas wild-type SLC5A6 increased uptake.

    Human intestinal HuTu-80 and brain-derived U87 cell transfection and live-cell imaging of patient-derived SLC5A6 variants
    exposure
    Forty-eight hours after transfection; 5 nM [3H]biotin, pH 7.4, 37 degrees C, five-minute uptake.
    limitations
    Human transformed cell models expressing GFP-tagged constructs. Biotin is the measured substrate; impaired B5/lipoate transport is plausible through shared machinery but is not directly quantified here. Genetic dysfunction is not dietary B5 deficiency.
