|
| Function |
Involved in the high-affinity, sodium-independent transport of cystine and neutral and dibasic amino acids (system B(0,+)-like activity). Thought to be responsible for the high- affinity reabsorption of cystine in the kidney proximal tubule. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10588648}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Apical cell membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12167606}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12167606}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in the brush border membrane in the kidney (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12167606}.
