LAT4_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: SLC43A2, LAT4, PP7664
Protein names and data: LAT4_HUMAN, Full=Large neutral amino acids transporter small subunit 4, Full=L-type amino acid transporter 4;Full=Solute carrier family 43 member 2; Length: 569 a.a., Mass: 62747 Da,
fasta formatted sequence
Function: Sodium-, chloride-, and pH-independent high affinity transport of large neutral amino acids
Cellular location: Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (By similarity)
Tissue specificity: Detected in several tissues with higher expression in placenta, kidney and peripheral blood leukocytes. In the kidney, is detected in epithelial cells of the distal tubule and collecting duct. In the intestine, is expressed mainly in crypt cells of the intestinal microvilli and epithelial cells in the base of the villus
