| Function |
Functions as a sodium-dependent amino acid transporter which countertransport protons. Mediates the saturable, pH- sensitive, and electrogenic cotransport of several neutral amino acids including glycine, asparagine, alanine, serine, glutamine and histidine with sodium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11243884}.
