2.A.58.1.5
Sodium-dependent phosphate transport protein 2A (Sodium-phosphate transport protein 2A; Na+-dependent phosphate cotransporter 2A; NaPiIIa; NaPi-3; NaPi-2a) (Solute carrier family 34 member 1; SLC34A1) of 639 aas and 12 TMSs. Structure-function relationships of the first and fourth predicted extracellular linkers of the type IIa Na+/Pi cotransporter have been stidied (Ehnes et al. 2004). It co-transports 3 Na+ with 1 divalent phosphate anion.  There are 3 Na+ binding sites, N1 (binds Na+ or Li+), N2 and N3, (both of which are Na+-specific); residues comprising N1 have been identified (Fenollar-Ferrer et al. 2015). Glucocorticoid-induced acute diuresis in rats is due to reduced renal expression of sodium-dependent cotransporter genes (Zhao et al. 2024).  Glucocorticoids, including dexamethasone (Dex) and prednisolone (PSL), acutely induced diuresis. Dex significantly increased the urinary excretion of sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose, and inorganic phosphorus by increasing expression of the Na+-dependent transporter genes (Zhao et al. 2024).  Renal Pi transporters are regulated, may provide novel drug targets for prevention or treatment of hyperphosphatemia, and contribute to the genetic risk to develop kidney stones and CKD (Wagner et al. 2025).
