Product Images

Anti-SLC7A8 mouse monoclonal antibody (TA500631) immunofluorescent staining of COS7 cells transiently transfected by pCMV6-ENTRY SLC7A8 (RC208586).

• 

  HEK293T cells transfected with either RC208586 overexpress plasmid (Red) or empty vector control plasmid (Blue) were immunostained by anti-SLC7A8 antibody (TA500631), and then analyzed by flow cytometry.

• Background: Sodium-independent, high-affinity transport of small and large neutral amino acids such as alanine, serine, threonine, cysteine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, leucine, arginine and tryptophan, when associated with SLC3A2/4F2hc. Acts as an amino acid exchanger. Has higher affinity for L-phenylalanine than LAT1 but lower affinity for glutamine and serine. L-alanine is transported at physiological concentrations. Plays a role in basolateral (re)absorption of neutral amino acids. Involved in the uptake of methylmercury (MeHg) when administered as the L-cysteine orD,L-homocysteine complexes, and hence plays a role in metal ion homeostasis and toxicity. Involved in the cellular activity of small molecular weight nitrosothiols, via the stereoselective transport of L-nitrosocysteine (L-CNSO) across the transmembrane. Plays an essential role in the reabsorption of neutral amino acids from the epithelial cells to the bloodstream in the kidney.
• Synonyms: LAT2; LPI-PC1
