Background:  Neutral amino acid transporter proteins, also designated alanine/serine/ cysteine/threonine transporters (ASCT), belong to the sodium:dicarboxylate (SDF) symporter family or proteins. The members of this family of proteins are multi-pass membrane-bound proteins that act as transporters for threonine, alanine, serine and cysteine. ASCT1 and ASCT2 have been shown to exhibit sodium dependence. ASCT1 is expressed in most tissues, but highest expression has been detected in muscle, brain and pancreas. The highest levels of ASCT2 expression are found in placenta, kidney, pancreas, muscle and intestine.
