General annotation (Comments)

Function

Amino acid-proton symporter. Stereospecific transporter with a broad specificity for glutamate, aspartate and neutral and acidic amino acids. Ref.4

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein Potential.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in flower buds, siliques, developing seeds and funiculi. Ref.1

Developmental stage

Found in young seeds 2 to 5 days after fertilization, but not expressed in mature seeds. Ref.1

Disruption phenotype

Reduced seed number and silique size correlated with a specifically altered amino acid composition of young siliques. Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the amino acid/polyamine transporter 2 family. Amino acid/auxin permease (AAAP) (TC 2.A.18.2) subfamily. [View classification]

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=444 µM for aspartate Ref.1

Vmax=1.7 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward aspartate
