Anti-SLC38A6 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein solute carrier family 38 member 6. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 456 amino acid residues and a mass of 50.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably expressed in many tissues, such as the bronchus, thyroid gland, and breast. A member of the Amino acid/polyamine transporter 2 protein family, SLC38A6 is a suspected sodium-dependent amino acid/proton antiporter, could be a neuronal transporter for glutamate. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include N system amino acid transporter NAT-1, N-system amino acid transporter 1, Na(+)-coupled neutral amino acid transporter 6, and probable sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporter 6. SLC38A6 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some SLC38A6 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. These antibodies are most commonly used in ELISA experiments, among other applications.
