-  Comments and Description Text from UniProtKB
  ID: SO3A1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 3A1; Short=OATP3A1; AltName: Full=Organic anion transporter polypeptide-related protein 3; Short=OATP-RP3; Short=OATPRP3; AltName: Full=Organic anion-transporting polypeptide D; Short=OATP-D; AltName: Full=PGE1 transporter; AltName: Full=Sodium-independent organic anion transporter D; AltName: Full=Solute carrier family 21 member 11;
FUNCTION: Mediates the Na(+)-independent transport of organic anions such as estrone-3-sulfate (PubMed:10873595). Mediates transport of prostaglandins (PG) E1 and E2, thyroxine (T4), deltorphin II, BQ-123 and vasopressin, but not DPDPE (a derivative of enkephalin lacking an N-terminal tyrosine residue), estrone-3- sulfate, taurocholate, digoxin nor DHEAS (PubMed:16971491).
BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=101 nM for PGE1 (isoform 1); KM=218 nM for PGE1 (isoform 2); KM=219 nM for PGE2 (isoform 1); KM=371 nM for PGE2 (isoform 2);
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in spleen and leukocytes. Generally the expression of isoform 1 is higher than that of isoform 2. Isoform 2 is particularly abundant in testis and brain. In testis, isoform 1 is detected in spermatogonia at different stages and absent from Sertoli cells, while isoform 2 is present in both (at protein level). Expressed in the choroid plexus epithelium, isoform 1 being localized at the basolateral membrane and isoform 2 at the apical one, as well as in the subapical intracellular vesicular compartments. Differential expression of both isoforms is also observed in other brain region: isoform 1 is very abundant in the gray matter of the frontal cortex, but is not associated with neuronal cell bodies. Not detected in the white matter. In contrast, isoform 2 is associated with neuronal bodies and axons in both the gray and the white matters of the frontal cortex.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the organo anion transporter (TC 2.A.60) family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Kazal-like domain.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
