Function |
Sodium-independent transporter that mediates the update of aromatic acid. Can function as a net efflux pathway for aromatic amino acids in the basosolateral epithelial cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Strongly expressed in kidney and skeletal muscle and at lower level in placenta and heart. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11827462}.
