Function | Symporter that cotransports neutral amino acids and sodium ions from the extraccellular to the intracellular side of the cell membrane (PubMed:10930503, PubMed:15922329, PubMed:16621798, PubMed:15774260). The trasnport is pH-sensitive, Li(+)-intolerant, electrogenic, driven by the Na(+) electrochemical gradient and cotransports of neutral amino acids and sodium ions with a stoichiometry of 1:1. May function in the transport of amino acids at the blood-brain barrier (PubMed:10930503, PubMed:15774260). May function in the transport of amino acids in the supply of maternal nutrients to the fetus through the placenta (By similarity). Maintains a key metabolic glutamine/glutamate balance underpinning retrograde signaling by dendritic release of the neurotransmitter glutamate (By similarity). Transports L-proline in differentiating osteoblasts for the efficient synthesis of proline-enriched proteins and provides proline essential for osteoblast differentiation and bone formation during bone development (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JHE5}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JHE5} Note=Insulin promotes recruitment to the plasma membrane from a pool localized in the trans-Golgi network or endosomes. Enriched in the somatodendritic compartment of neurons, it is also detected at the axonal shaft but excluded from the nerve terminal {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9JHE5} |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed (PubMed:10930503). Expressed in neocortex (PubMed:16616430). Widely expressed in the central nervous system with higher concentrations in caudal regions. Expressed by glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons together with astrocytes and other non-neuronal cells in the cerebral cortex (at protein level) (PubMed:15774260). |
