About Slc7a6

Summary

Predicted to enable L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity and basic amino acid transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in basic amino acid transmembrane transport and ornithine transport. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SLC7A6 (solute carrier family 7 member 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
