GO Classification
Functions
amino acid transmembrane transporter activity / L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity / L-arginine transmembrane transporter activity
Processes
amino acid import across plasma membrane / L-alpha-amino acid transmembrane transport / L-amino acid transport / L-arginine transmembrane transport / transport across blood-brain barrier
Components
cell junction
General Function
Functions as a permease involved in the transport of the cationic amino acids (L-arginine, L-lysine, L-ornithine and L-homoarginine); the affinity for its substrates differs between isoforms created by alternative splicing (PubMed:28684763, PubMed:9174363). May play a role in classical or alternative activation of macrophages via its role in arginine transport (By similarity)
