Mediates electrogenic symport of neutral amino acids and sodium ions. Has a broad specificity, with a preference for Ala, followed by His, Cys, Asn, Ser, Gly, Val, Thr, Gln and Met. May mediate sodium- independent transport of cationic amino acids, such as Arg and Lys. Amino acid uptake is pH-dependent, with low transport activities at pH 6.5, intermediate at pH 7.0 and highest between pH 7.5 and 8.5. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11342143, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11414754}. |Aa trans| |amino acid transmembrane transporter activity| |symporter activity| |amino acid transmembrane transport| |amino acid transport| |organic acid transmembrane transport| |carboxylic acid transmembrane transport| |sodium ion transport| |anion transmembrane transport| |organic acid transport| |carboxylic acid transport| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |organic anion transport| |anion transport| |metal ion transport| |cation transport| |ion transmembrane transport| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |nitrogen compound transport| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp187|proTAME 5μM R04 exp187]]|-2.06| |[[:results:exp269|Bisphenol A 100μM R06 exp269]]|-1.88| |[[:results:exp132|Metformin 40μM R03 exp132]]|-1.82| |[[:results:exp334|All-trans-Retinoic-Acid 40μM R07 exp334]]|-1.77| |[[:results:exp390|Pifithrin-alpha 20μM R07 exp390]]|1.86| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
