Summary

SLC43A1 belongs to the system L family of plasma membrane carrier proteins that transports large neutral amino acids (Babu et al., 2003 [PubMed 12930836]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that exposure to α-particles, γ-rays, and neutrons in liver cells induced distinct gene expression profiles, with the SLC43A1 being down-regulated specifically following γ-ray exposure [Roudkenar et al. DOI:10.1269/jrr.07078].
