Allantoin permease, PucI, with 12 TMSs and both N- and C-termini on the inside. PucI transports allantoin with a Km of 24 mμM, but recognizes some additional hydantoin compounds, including hydantoin itself, and to a lesser extent a range of nucleobases and nucleosides (Ma et al. 2016).

2.A.39.3.11









Purine/uracil uptake porter of 599 aas and 12 TMSs, NCS1 or PLUTO.  Nucleobase:proton symporter that facilitates the uptake of nucleobases in the cells. Can transport adenine, guanine and uracil (Witz et al. 2014). Contributes to uracil import into plastids for plastidic uracil salvage which is essential for plant growth and development (Witz et al. 2012).

2.A.39.3.12









NCS1 of 540 aas and 12 TMSs.  Transports adenine, guanine, hypoxanthine, cytosine, and allantoin and competitively binds xanthine and uric acid. The closely related Zea mays NCS1 transports adenine, guanine, and cytosine and competitively binds, 5-fluorocytosine, hypoxanthine, xanthine, and uric acid. The differences in these NCS1 profiles are due to a limited number of amino acid differences (Rapp et al. 2016).

NCS1 of Setaria viridis (Green bristlegrass) (Setaria italica subsp. viridis)
2.A.39.3.13









Uracil-specific permease of 581 aas and 11 or 12 TMSs. FUR4.  Deletion of the FUR4 gene confers resistance to 5-fluorouracil as well as cross-resistance to triazoles and imidazole antifungal agents when they are used simultaneously with 5-fluorouracil although the nucleobase transporters are not involved in azole uptake. Only fluorinated pyrimidines, not pyrimidines themselves, are able to promote cross-resistance to azoles by both the salvage and the de novo pathway of pyrimidine synthesis. Subinhibitory doses of 5-fluorocytosine, 5-fluorouracil, and 5-fluorouridine also trigger resistance to fluconazole in susceptible wild-type strains of C. lusitaniae and of different Candida species. Thus, intracellular fluorinated nucleotides play a role in azole resistance, either by preventing azoles from targeting the catalytic site of lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase or by acting as a molecular switch for the triggering of efflux transport (Gabriel et al. 2014; ).
