General description
Solute carrier family 43, member 2 (SLC43A2, LAT4) is a system L amino acid transporter that preferentially transports L-tyrosine. Other members of the L amino acid transporter family include LAT1, LAT2 and LAT3. LAT4 may be an important amino acid transporter during gestation wherein it facilitates amino acid transport from the placenta into the fetus.
Specificity
Anti-SLC43A2 polyclonal antibody reacts with bovine, canine, rat, and human solute carrier family 43, member 2 proteins.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human SLC43A2
Application
Anti-SLC43A2 polyclonal antibody is used to tag solute carrier family 43, member 2 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of solute carrier family 43, member 2 in transport of tyrosine during fetal gestation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
SLC43A2 is a Sodium-, chloride, pH-independent high affinity transport of large neutral amino acids.
