Tissue Specificity | Strongly expressed in kidney, skeletal muscle, heart and placenta. Primarily expressed by surface epithelial cells of the colon (at protein level). Expressed in CD68 macrophage and CD43 T-cells but not in CD20 B-cells. In testis, localized to Sertoli cell basal membranes, peritubular myoid cells and Leydig cells. |
Post Translational Modifications | Glycosylated. Glycosylation affects the expression levels. Isoform 3: Not glycosylated. |
Function | Sodium-ion dependent, high affinity carnitine transporter. Involved in the active cellular uptake of carnitine. Transports one sodium ion with one molecule of carnitine. Also transports organic cations such as tetraethylammonium (TEA) without the involvement of sodium. Relative uptake activity ratio of carnitine to TEA is 11.3. In intestinal epithelia, transports the quorum-sensing pentapeptide CSF (competence and sporulation factor) from Bacillus Subtilis wich induces cytoprotective heat shock proteins contributing to intestinal homeostasis. May also contribute to regulate the transport of organic compounds in testis across the blood-testis-barrier (Probable). Isoform 3: Retained in the ER, unable to perform carnitine uptake. |
