In particular, the neuronal transporter EAAT3 has many functions, such as the regulation of inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, and neuroprotection in the brain [ 27– 29], and it accounts for about 40%% of glutamate uptake in the hippocampus [ 30].
The surface area of a cell influences its ability to communicate with its environment, and impacts critical functions such as respiration and uptake of nutrients.
Important functions such as nutritional uptake and immune evasion are suspected functions of the tegument and this review discusses these aspects and presents some insights into some of these crucial functions.
Other stream functions, such as nutrient uptake, have not been studied sufficiently to draw conclusions concerning how they may or may not be affected by elevated major ions.
Among such genes were factors involved in virulence-associated functions such as iron uptake, biofilm formation, stress response, antimicrobial resistance and adherence.
Beyond identifying genes with broad expected functions, such as regulators of the actin cytoskeleton and vesicular trafficking, these studies also identified genes required for the uptake of specific fungal pathogens.
Protein trafficking is tightly regulated in all cells and mediates important functions such as receptor signaling, cell cell contacts, cell adhesion, nutrient uptake, and membrane excitability.
Various functions have been proposed for FABPs such as the uptake, transport, and delivery of fatty acids to beta-oxidation [ 43, 44].
These observations suggest that neural stem cells provide neurotrophic support to the retina; however, the uptake of subretinal debris by transplanted cells suggests that additional functions such as phagocytic clearance may be engaged in transplanted cells.
Vegetation may dramatically affect the performance of land treatment systems through its effects on hydraulic loading, nutrient uptake, biomass production, microbial community (structure and activity), and other particular functions such as trace elements uptake/inactivation and toxic organics degradation/inactivation.
