Synonyms Monocyte amino acid permease 2; MOP-2; Solute carrier family 7 member 7; y(+)L-type amino acid transporter 1; Y+LAT1; y+LAT-1; SLC7A7
DT Family Amino Acid-Polyamine-Organocation (APC) Family
L-type Amino Acid Transporter (LAT) Family
Tissue Specificity Highest expression in kidney and peripheralblood leukocytes. Weaker expression is observed in lung, heart,placenta, spleen, testis and small intestine. Expressed in normalfibroblasts and those from LPI patients. Also expressed in HUVECs,monocytes, retinal pigment epithelial cells, and various carcinomacell lines, with highest expression in a colon-carcinoma cellline.
Function This transporter Involved in the sodium-independent uptake of dibasic amino acids and sodium-dependent uptake of some neutral amino acids. And it plays a role in nitric oxide synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) via transport of L-arginine. Requires coexpression with SLC3A2/4F2hc to mediate the uptake of arginine, leucine and glutamine.
Endogenous Substrate(s) Amino acids
