Two complementary DNAs for the organic anion transporter subtypes oatp2 and oatp3,
which transport thyroid hormones as well as taurocholate, were isolated from a rat retina
cDNA library. The sequence of oatp2 is identical to that recently reported (Noé, B.,
Hagenbuch, B., Stieger, B., and Meier, PJ (1997) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94, 10346–
10350), whereas the sequence of oatp3 is novel. oatp3 consists of 670 amino acid residues
and exhibits a structural architecture common to the organic anion transporter family …
