Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text.

Ideally this entry shall become one comprehensive and continuous article. Bulleted lists, for instance, were only used because it is impossible to automatically integrate independent facts into a continuous text.

Much of the current information on this page has been automatically compiled from Pubmed.

This precompiled information serves as a substrate and matrix to embed your contributions, but it is by no means the final word - Homo sapiens can do much better!

High impact information on FUN26

  • FUI1 and function unknown now 26 (FUN26) are proteins of uncertain function with sequence similarities to members of the uracil/allantoin permease and equilibrative nucleoside transporter families of transporter proteins, respectively [1].
  • Fractionation of yeast membranes containing immunotagged recombinant FUN26 (shown to be functional in oocytes) demonstrated that the protein was primarily in intracellular membranes [1].
  • When FUN26 cDNA was expressed in oocytes of Xenopus laevis, inward fluxes of [(3)H]uridine, [(3)H]adenosine, and [(3)H]cytidine were stimulated, and uridine influx was independent of pH and not inhibited by dilazep, dipyridamole, or nitrobenzylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside [1].
