Drosophila expresses a CD98 transporter with an evolutionarily conserved structure and amino acid-transport properties.

Mammalian CD98 heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of a promiscuous single-pass transmembrane glycoprotein, CD98hc (CD98 heavy chain), and one of six multipass transmembrane proteins or 'light chains'. The heterodimeric complexes of CD98hc and the light chains LAT1 (L-type amino...
