Target Details
- Target: Large neutral Amino acid Transporter 1 (LAT1, CD98)
- Target background: LAT1, also known as SLC7A5, is part of the APC superfamily and forms a heterodimeric amino acid transporter channel. LAT1 interacts with CD98 glycoprotein via a conserved disulphide. This transporter channel is involved in the uptake of essential amino acids in various regions, particularly the placenta and blood brain barrier. LAT1 expressed on numerous cell types including B cells, activated T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, erythrocytes and endothelial cells. LAT1 is up-regulated on leucocytes in inflammatory lesions and is strongly expressed by neoplastic cells. Changes in amino acid transporter expression, including LAT1, are thought to be an early change in oncogenesis, as they provide growth and survival advantages.
