It specifically mediates the transport of essential amino acids and related signals from the lysosomal lumen to the cytoplasm. The protein has a mass of approximately 61 kilodaltons and is primarily expressed in tissues with high metabolic activity like the liver kidneys and brain. This expression pattern supports its role in cellular and metabolic homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThis protein serves as a component of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway. SLC38A9 directly interacts with the lysosomal surface to connect amino acid availability to mTORC1 activation. By doing so it influences cell growth and autophagy processes in response to amino acid levels. As a part of the mTORC1 complex SLC38A9 plays an important function in translating extracellular cues to intracellular responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSLC38A9 is integral in the amino acid sensing mechanism that regulates the mTORC1 pathway. This pathway controls vital processes like protein synthesis and cell proliferation. The protein partners with other key players in the mTOR signaling pathway including Rag GTPases and Raptor to relay amino acid abundance to the mTORC1 complex. This relationship ensures that cellular growth processes are synchronized with available nutrition resources.\u003cbr\u003e\nSLC38A9 is implicated in metabolic diseases and cancer. Dysregulation of amino acid sensing and mTORC1 activity mediated through SLC38A9 contributes to metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Moreover its involvement with mTORC1 links it to cancer progression as mTORC1 is often upregulated in tumors. This relationship suggests a potential therapeutic interest in targeting SLC38A9 together with proteins like mTOR for disease intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845144924329,"sku":"ab265823","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab265823","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
