DescriptionFUNCTION: Symporter that cotransports short-chain neutral amino acids and sodium ions from the extraccellular to the intracellular side of the cell membrane . The transport is elctrogenic, pH dependent and driven by the Na(+) electrochemical gradient . Participates in the astroglia-derived glutamine transport into GABAergic interneurons for neurotransmitter GABA de novo synthesis (By similarity). May also contributes to amino acid transport in placental trophoblasts . Also regulates synaptic plasticity . .
