solute carrier family 43 member 2

MGC34680

solute carrier family 43 (amino acid system L transporter), member 2

Large neutral amino acids transporter small subunit 4

L-type amino acid transporter 4

Solute carrier family 43 member 2

This gene encodes a member of the L-amino acid transporter-3 or SLC43 family of transporters. The encoded protein mediates sodium-, chloride-, and pH-independent transport of L-isomers of neutral amino acids, including leucine, phenylalanine, valine and methionine. This protein may contribute to the transfer of amino acids across the placental membrane to the fetus. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016].
