| Type: | Family | Name: | L-type amino acid transporter |
| Description: | Amino acid permeases are integral membrane proteins involved in the transport of amino acids into the cell. A number of such proteins have been found to beevolutionary related [, , ].These proteins seem to contain up to 12 transmembrane segments. The best conserved region in this family is located in the second transmembrane segment.In this family of L-type amino acid transporters one example is the high affinity methionine permease from yeast. | Short Name: | L_AA_transporter |
