The sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporters (SNAT) of the SLC38 gene family include System A subtypes SNAT1, SNAT2 and SNAT4 and System N subtypes SNAT3 and SNAT5. The SLC38 transporters are essential for the uptake of nutrients, energy production, metabolism, detoxification, and the cycling of neurotransmitters. SNAT4, also designated ATA3, NAT3 or PAAT, has been mapped to human chromosome 12q13. Tissue expression of the SNAT4 protein is most predominant in embryonic and adult liver and to a much lesser extent in the muscle, kidney and pancreas. System A transport proteins may play a significant role in fetal development and inhibition of the transport system has been associated with fetal growth retardation.
