Subcellular Location:
Basolateral cell membrane

Function

Function:
Involved in the sodium-independent uptake of dibasic amino acids and sodium-dependent uptake of some neutral amino acids. Requires coexpression with SLC3A2/4F2hc to mediate the uptake of arginine, leucine and glutamine. Plays a role in nitric oxide synthesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) via transport of L-arginine. Involved in the transport of L-arginine in monocytes.
Kinetics:
BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=31.7 uM for L-leucine (in the presence of 0.1 M NaCl)
Enzyme Regulation:
ENZYME REGULATION: Arginine transport is inhibited by protein kinase C (PKC) and treatment with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA).
