Summary
Protein Function
The Na+-dependent taurocholate (TC) cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP/Ntcp) is the major sinusoidal bile salt transporter of hepatocytes. Ntcp mediates the transport of conjugated bile salts such as TC and taurochenodeoxycholate in a Na+-dependent fashion using the Na+ gradient produced by the Na+-K+-ATPase. (PMID: 23886862)
Cys Function & Property
Ntcp has 8 cysteines, and one of these, Cys266, is highly conserved not only across several species but also with the NTCP/Ntcp homolog, apical Na+-dependent bile acid transporter (Asbt).
Some three-dimensional homology model for human NTCP predicts that Cys96 lies in a possible permeation pathway for Na+. And S-nitrosylation of Cys96 may result in steric hindrance that blocks the permeation pathway for Na+ and thereby inhibits Ntcp function.
