Function
This sodium-dependent amino acid transporter mediates the saturable, pH-sensitive and electrogenic cotransport 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 and in the supply of maternal nutrients to the fetus through the placenta.
Endogenous Substrate(s) Amino acids; Sodium ion
