Large Neutral Amino Acids Transporter Small Subunit 3 (SLC43A1) Reagents

Large neutral amino acids transporter small subunit 3

Sodium-independent, high affinity transport of large neutral amino acids. Has narrower substrate selectivity compared to SLC7A5 and SLC7A8 and mainly transports branched-chain amino acids and phenylalanine. Plays a role in the development of human prostate cancer, from prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia to invasive prostate cancer.

Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

SLC43A transporter (TC 2.A.1.44) family

In adults, found in all tissues examined with highest expression in pancreas. In fetus, highest expression in liver and lower levels in kidney, and lung. High levels found in prostate cancer cells.
