About SLC38A9

Cytogenetic location: 5q11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:55,625,845-55,712,335 (from NCBI)

This gene has 26 transcripts (splice variants), 209 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 15.1), testis (RPKM 7.5) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

Enables L-arginine transmembrane transporter activity and L-leucine transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in amino acid transmembrane transport; cellular response to amino acid stimulus; and positive regulation of TOR signaling. Located in late endosome and lysosomal membrane. Is integral component of lysosomal membrane. Colocalizes with Ragulator complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
