Abstract
Drugs targeting the central nervous system often fail clinical trials because of their poor transport to the brain. Therefore, our group is interested in unraveling the mechanisms of import of compounds through plasma membrane transporters of the blood-brain barrier. Using genetically modified Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a biological platform, recent studies have shown that it is possible…
