Abstract

Urea transporters encoded by the UT-A gene play fundamental roles in the kidney and possibly other tissues. Knowledge of the genomic organization of the mouse, rat and human UT-A genes has enabled the engineering of transgenic and knockout animals and these have helped refine our understanding of the role of UT-A proteins. This review summarizes the published work that has accrued on the structure and regulation of these genes. It also documents a novel cDNA, human UT-A3, which has enabled a major refinement of the human UT-A gene structure. This and other information contained in this review should prove useful for future comparative genomic analysis, studies addressing gene regulation and for the engineering of transgenic and knockout animal strains.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 July 2012.
All research outputs
#4,968,506
of 23,806,312 outputs
Outputs from The Journal of Membrane Biology
#60
of 803 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#23,179
of 165,068 outputs
Outputs of similar age from The Journal of Membrane Biology
#1
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,806,312 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 76th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 803 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 165,068 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 79% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
