The encoded protein transports glutamine, asparagine, histidine, serine, alanine, and glycine across the cell membrane, but does not transport charged amino acids, imino acids, or N-alkylated amino acids. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]. * **UniProt Summary**: Functions as a sodium-dependent amino acid transporter which countertransport protons. Mediates the saturable, pH- sensitive, and electrogenic cotransport of several neutral amino acids including glycine, asparagine, alanine, serine, glutamine and histidine with sodium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11243884}. |Aa trans| |glycine transmembrane transporter activity| |glycine transport| |neutral amino acid transport| |amino acid transmembrane transporter activity| |L-amino acid transport| |amino acid transmembrane transport| |amino acid transport| |carboxylic acid transmembrane transport| |organic acid transmembrane transport| |drug transport| |neurotransmitter transport| |anion transmembrane transport| |carboxylic acid transport| |organic acid transport| |organic anion transport| |anion transport| |cation transport| |ion transmembrane transport| |response to drug| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |nitrogen compound transport| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp519|RS-1 10μM R08 exp519]]|-2.48| |[[:results:exp529|Thimerosal 0.85μM R08 exp529]]|-1.71| |[[:results:exp359|FK-506 30μM R07 exp359]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp521|Salinomycin 3.5μM R08 exp521]]|1.77| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
