| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in liver, testis, spleen, lung, pancreas, and small intestine and expressed poorly in other tissues. |
| Function | Mitochondrial transporter of the positively charged amino acids ornithine, lysine and arginine, and the neutral amino acid citrulline. In addition, transports the basic amino acids histidine, homoarginine, and asymmetric dimethylarginine (aDMA), but not symmetric DMA, and the D-forms of lysine, arginine, ornithine and histidine. Functions by both counter-exchange and uniport mechanisms. |
