Membrane Biochemistry

Associate professor: Hiroshi Omote

We are interested in transport mechanism of transporters and their physiological functions. Our main target is vesicular neurotransmitter transporters including polyamine transporter (VPAT), glutamate transporter (VGLUT) and nucleotide transporter (VNUT). We also investigate physiological function of intracellular glucose transporters.

Keywords
