Research Abstract |
LAT1(L-type amino acid transporter 1) is one of the transporters which uptake essential amino acids. Expression of the function requires an interacting partner, CD98/4F2hc. In this study, a new experimental system has been developed to study LAT1-function in detail and it is shown that CD98/4F2hc is not essential for the function. Furthermore, Annexine II was identified as a CD98/4F2hc -binding protein beside integrin.
