Proton-coupled amino acid transporter 2 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the SLC36A2 gene.^[5]

Function

SLC36A2 transports small amino acids (glycine, alanine, and proline) and also the D-enantiomers and select amino acid derivatives, such as gamma-aminobutyric acid.^[5]^[6]

Clinical significance

Mutations in the SLC36A2 gene are associated with Iminoglycinuria.^[7]
