Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖View more information in the IUPHAR Pharmacology Education Project: dipyridamole, dipyridamole |

Target | Comment |
Equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 | SLC29A1 (ENT1) has 100-1000-fold lower affinity for nucleobases as compared with nucleosides [12]. The affinities of draflazine, dilazep, KF24345 and dipyridamole at SLC29A1 transporters are species dependent, exhibiting lower affinity at rat transporters than at human transporters [5,8]. Dilazep and nitrobenzylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside have distinct but overlapping binding domains in the SLC29A1 crystal structure [11]. The loss of SLC29A1 activity in SLC29A1-null mice has been associated with a hypermineralization disorder similar to human diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis [10]. Lack of SLC29A1 also results in the Augustine-null blood type [1]. SLC29A1 forms homodimers and heterodimers (with SLC29A2) [4]. |
