Background
SLC7A8 is sodium-independent, high-affinity transport of large neutral amino acids. It has higher affinity for L-phenylalanine than LAT1 but lower affinity for glutamine and serine. L-alanine is transported at physiological concentrations. SLC7A8 also plays a role in basolateral (re)absorption of neutral amino acids.
