2.A.21.3.6
Myoinositol:Na+ symporter, SMIT2 (also transports D-chiro-inositol, D-glucose and D-xylose) (Coady et al., 2002; Aouameur et al., 2007).  A 5-state model includes cooperative binding of Na+, strong apparent asymmetry of the energy barriers, a rate limiting step which is likely associated with the translocation of the empty transporter, and a turnover rate of 21 s-1 (Sasseville et al. 2014). The potential for modulation of plasma myoinositol by variation in SLC5A11 has been assessed (Weston et al. 2022).
