Slc3a2 - solute carrier family 3 (activators of dibasic and neutral amino acid transport), member 2

Predicted to enable amino acid transmembrane transporter activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in carboxylic acid transport and viral entry into host cell. Predicted to act upstream of or within response to exogenous dsRNA. Located in apical pole of neuron. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and spinal cord. Orthologous to human SLC3A2 (solute carrier family 3 member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
