Amino acid transporter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An amino acid transporter is a membrane transport protein that transports amino acids. They are mainly of the solute carrier family.
[edit] Solute carrier family examples
- (1) high affinity glutamate and neutral amino acid transporter[1]
- (3) heavy subunits of heteromeric amino acid transporters[2]
- (7) cationic amino acid transporter/glycoprotein-associated[3]
- (15) proton oligopeptide cotransporter[4]
- (17) vesicular glutamate transporter[5]
- (18) vesicular amine transporter[6]
- (25) some mitochondrial carriers[7]
- (26) multifunctional anion exchanger[8]
- (32) vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter[9]
- (36) proton-coupled amino acid transporter[10]
- (38) System A & N, sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporter[11]
