Target Name
SLC7A6
Target Full Name
Y+L amino acid transporter 2
Target Function
Involved in the sodium-independent uptake of dibasic amino acids and sodium-dependent uptake of some neutral amino acids. Requires coexpression with SLC3A2/4F2hc to mediate the uptake of arginine, leucine and glutamine. Also acts as an arginine/glutamine exchanger, following an antiport mechanism for amino acid transport, influencing arginine release in exchange for extracellular amino acids. Plays a role in nitric oxide synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) via transport of L-arginine. Involved in the transport of L-arginine in monocytes. Reduces uptake of ornithine in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells.
Target Subcellular Location
Basolateral cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
Amino acid-polyamine-organocation (APC) superfamily, L-type amino acid transporter (LAT) (TC 2.A.3.8) family
Target Tissue Specificity
Expressed in normal fibroblasts and those from LPI patients. Also expressed in HUVECs, monocytes, RPE cells, and various carcinoma cell lines.
