Abstract

A full length cDNA for rkST1, a novel member of the Na+/glucose cotransporter family, was cloned from rabbit kidney and sequenced. The coding sequence comprised 2022 base pairs and 674 amino acids. rkST1 beared 50-60% amino acid identity to the other cotransporters and was characteristic in respect of its expression in brain in addition to kidney among the cotransporters.
