======= SLC38A1 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: SLC38A1 * **Official Name**: solute carrier family 38 member 1 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=81539|81539]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9H2H9|Q9H2H9]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=SLC38A1&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20SLC38A1|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/608490|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: N/A * **UniProt Summary**: Functions as a sodium-dependent amino acid transporter. Mediates the saturable, pH-sensitive and electrogenic cotransport of glutamine and sodium ions with a stoichiometry of 1:1. May also transport small zwitterionic and aliphatic amino acids with a lower affinity. May supply glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons with glutamine which is required for the synthesis of the neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10891391}. |Aa trans| |amino acid:sodium symporter activity| |neutral amino acid transmembrane transporter activity| |L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity| |neurotransmitter uptake| |neutral amino acid transport| |amino acid transmembrane transporter activity| |L-alpha-amino acid transmembrane transport| |L-amino acid transport| |amino acid transmembrane transport| |amino acid transport| |carboxylic acid transmembrane transport| |organic acid transmembrane transport| |sodium ion transport| |neurotransmitter transport| |anion transmembrane transport| |organic acid transport| |carboxylic acid transport| |regulation of neurotransmitter levels| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |organic anion transport| |anion transport| |metal ion transport| |import into cell| |cation transport| |ion transmembrane transport| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |nitrogen compound transport| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp148|SB202190 10μM R03 exp148]]|-2.2| |[[:results:exp241|QNZ 0.01μM R05 exp241]]|-2.02| |[[:results:exp510|Nicotine 3000μM R08 exp510]]|-1.98| |[[:results:exp529|Thimerosal 0.85μM R08 exp529]]|-1.74| |[[:results:exp478|Doxorubicin 0.02μM R08 exp478]]|1.7| |[[:results:exp393|Resminostat 0.5μM R07 exp393]]|1.82| |[[:results:exp84|UM0125461 0.74μM R02 exp84]]|1.93| ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:h:hars|HARS]]|0.454| |[[:human genes:s:suv39h1|SUV39H1]]|0.411| |[[:human genes:s:slc38a2|SLC38A2]]|0.403| Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 2/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|1/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|1/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **Essentiality Rank**: 4738 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: 9.02 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
