    Summary
    Predicted to enable L-glutamate transmembrane transporter activity; glutamate:sodium symporter activity; and neutral L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in L-glutamate transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 41. Orthologous to human SLC1A2 (solute carrier family 1 member 2).
