FIG. 1.
Uptake of [3H]adenosine by the tbat1-null mutant. Uptake of 20 nM [3H]adenosine was inhibited by inosine (filled squares) with an IC50 of 1.1 ± 0.1 μM. Adenine failed to inhibit [3H]adenosine at concentrations as high as 100 μM when it was added alone (open squares). The inhibition induced by 1 mM adenine is attributable to a low-affinity inhibition of P1.
