(1)

Calculated for the 1 μCi/mL content of [3H]-labeled substrates in the incubation media, based on specific activities (see Materials and Methods).

(2)

Data from Table 1.

(3)

Calculated as CL = Vtransport/S (plotted in Figure 5B).

(4)

Calculated as Vmax = CL·(S+Ki) (plotted in Figure 5C).

(5)

Oat6-mediated uptake of methotrexate is not detectable (no difference between Oat6-injected and uninjected oocytes, see Figure 5A).
