Background Information

Large neutral amino acid transporter 1 LAT1(also named as SLC7A5) is a sodium- and pH-independent transporter that supplies essential amino acids (e.g., leucine, phenylalanine) to cells. It plays an important role in the blood-brain barrier (BBB), where it facilitates the transport of thyroid hormones, drugs (e.g., l-DOPA, gabapentin), and metabolites to the brain. In addition, its expression is highly upregulated in various types of human cancers, which are characterized by a high demand for amino acids for growth and proliferation. The LAT1 subunit in humans is a 507 amino acid-long polypeptide with a theoretical molecular mass of 55 kDa. The protein is hydrophobic and is predicted to be constituted by 12 transmembrane segments. The apparent molecular mass of the proteins diminished to approximately 35 - 40 kDa.(PMID: 23912240 ;PMID: 26256001)
