OCTN1 (Organic Cation Transporter Novel 1), encoded by the *SLC22A4* gene in humans, is a transmembrane protein belonging to the solute carrier (SLC) superfamily. It functions as a sodium-dependent transporter primarily involved in the cellular uptake of organic cations, such as acetylcholine, carnitine, and ergothioneine (a potent antioxidant). OCTN1 is expressed in various tissues, including the kidneys, intestines, lungs, and immune cells, suggesting roles in nutrient absorption, detoxification, and immune modulation. Its ability to transport ergothioneine has drawn attention due to this compound’s potential neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties.
Genetic variations in *SLC22A4* have been linked to autoimmune disorders like Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis, highlighting its clinical relevance. For instance, the L503F polymorphism in OCTN1 is associated with altered transporter activity and increased disease susceptibility. To study its function and mechanisms, recombinant OCTN1 protein is produced using heterologous expression systems (e.g., *E. coli*, insect, or mammalian cells). This engineered protein retains functional activity, enabling in vitro studies on substrate specificity, kinetics, and drug interactions.
Recombinant OCTN1 is crucial for structural analyses (e.g., crystallography or cryo-EM) to map substrate-binding sites and design targeted therapies. Challenges in its production include maintaining proper folding and post-translational modifications, often requiring mammalian expression systems. Research on OCTN1 continues to explore its dual role as a nutrient transporter and a mediator of oxidative stress responses, positioning it as a potential therapeutic target for metabolic and inflammatory diseases.
