Mammalian sodium/dicarboxylate cotransporters (transport succinate and other Krebs cycle intermediates) fall into two categories based on their substrate affinity. The human gene SLC13A2 encodes a low-affinity sodium/dicarboxlate co-transporter, NaDC1. NaDC1 is highly expressed in the brush-border membranes of kidney and intestinal cells and reabsorbs Krebs cycle intermediates, such as succinate and citrate, from the glomerular filtrate (Pajor AM, 1996).
