Stoichiometry | |
PHT2 has not been analyzed systematically with respect to driving force, mode of transport, and substrate specificity. The pH dependence observed for transport of histidine [2] and the model peptides used, i.e., carnosine [2] and histidyl-leucine [2], suggest a similar mode of operation as PEPT1 and PEPT2 proteins. |

Immunopharmacology Comments |
SLC15A3 and SLC15A4 are preferentially expressed by cells within the lymphatic system, including dendritic cells. Expression of these two genes is upregulated in response to TLR stimulation [1,3]. There is some experimental evidence which suggests that SLC15A3 plays an important role in regulating TLR4-mediated inflammatory responses [3]. |
