Rb1509-130810-WS

Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from internal region of human SLC7A8 (LAT2) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen. The peptide is homologous in mouse and rat.

Accession

Also known
L-type amino acid transporter 2, Solute carrier family 7 member 8, LAT2, SLC7A8

Target
FUNCTION: 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 or D,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.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Basolateral cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note: Localized to the cytoplasm when expressed alone. When coexpressed with SLC3A2/4F2hc, is localized to the plasma membrane. Colocalized with SLC3A2/4F2hc at the basolateral membrane of kidney cortex proximal tubules and small intestine epithelia of the villi.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY:
Strongly expressed in kidney and small intestine. Moderately present in placenta, ovary and brain

Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.

Expiry Date
12 months after reconstitution

Shipping
This item will be shipped to you at ambient temperature in a lyophilised form.
