High-Throughput Assay Development for Cystine-Glutamate Antiporter (x(c) (-)) Highlights Faster Cystine Uptake than Glutamate Release in Glioma Cells

The cystine-glutamate antiporter (system x(c) (-)) is a Na(+)-independent amino acid transporter that exchanges extracellular cystine for intracellular glutamate. It is thought to play a critical role in cellular redox processes through regulation of intracellular glutathione synthesis via cystine u...
