Sodium- and chloride-dependent neutral and basic amino acid transporter B(0+) (SLC6A14) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC6A14 gene.[5][6]
Function
SLC6A14 is a member of the Na+- and Cl−-dependent neurotransmitter transporter family and transports both neutral and cationic amino acids in an Na+- and Cl−-dependent manner.[supplied by OMIM][6]
