Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Involved in the sodium-independent uptake of dibasic amino acids and sodium-dependent uptake of some neutral amino acids. Requires coexpression with SLC3A2/4F2hc to mediate the uptake of arginine, leucine and glutamine. Plays a role in nitric oxide synthesis via transport of L-arginine, and is involved in the transport of L-arginine in monocytes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:9878049}.
Subcellular Localization Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Strongly expressed in kidney and intestine. Weaker expression observed in epididymis, testis, ovary, thyroid pancreas, sub-gland and liver. {ECO:0000269PubMed:9878049}.
