Molecular Characterization and Nutrition Regulation of the Neutral Amino Acid Transporter ASCT2 in Triploid Crucian Carp

AlaSerCys Transporter 2 (ASCT2), encoded by the SLC1A5 gene, plays an important role in the absorption of glutamine. In this study, the full-length cDNA sequence of ASCT2 was cloned from triploid crucian carp. It encodes 539 amino acid residues and a stop codon. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that t...
