Schematic representation of NIS secondary structure model. The schematic diagram shows the predicted secondary structure of NIS. The commonly accepted topological model of NIS shows 13 transmembrane helices with N terminus located extracellularly and C terminus located intracellularly. Transmembrane segments are represented by cylinders. Positions of 14 amino acid residues mutated in this study are indicated by arrows.
