Tissue Specificity Expressed abundantly in adult lung, liver,brain, skeletal muscle, placenta, bone marrow, testis, restinglymphocytes and monocytes, and in fetal liver. Weaker expressionin thymus, cornea, retina, peripheral leukocytes, spleen, kidney,colon and lymph node. During gestation, expression in the placentawas significantly stronger at full-term than at the mid-trimesterstage. Also expressed in all human tumor cell lines tested and inthe astrocytic process of primary astrocytic gliomas. Expressed inretinal endothelial cells and in the intestinal epithelial cellline Caco-2.
Function This sodium-independent, high-affinity transporter involved in cellular amino acid uptake and mediates the transport of large neutral amino acids such as phenylalanine, tyrosine, leucine, arginine and tryptophan. Involved in the transport of L-DOPA across the blood-brain barrier, and that of thyroid hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) across the cell membrane in tissues such as placenta. Plays a role in neuronal cell proliferation (neurogenesis) in brain. Involved in the uptake of methylmercury (MeHg) when administered as the L-cysteine or D,L-homocysteine complexes, and hence plays a role in metal ion homeostasis and toxicity. Involved in the cellular activity of small molecular weight nitrosothiols, via the stereoselective transport of L-nitrosocysteine (L-CNSO) across the transmembrane. May play an important role in high-grade gliomas. Mediates blood-to-retina L-leucine transport across the inner blood-retinal barrier which in turn may play a key role in maintaining large neutral amino acids as well as neurotransmitters in the neural retina. Acts as the major transporter of tyrosine in fibroblasts. When associated with LAPTM4B, recruits SLC3A2 and SLC7A5 to lysosomes to promote leucine uptake into these organelles and is required for mTORC1 activation.
