Transmembrane amino acid transporter protein Identifiers Symbol Aa_trans Pfam PF01490 InterPro IPR013057 TCDB 2.A.18 Available protein structures: Pfam structures PDB RCSB PDB; PDBe PDBsum structure summary An amino acid transporter is a membrane transport protein that transports amino acids. They are mainly of the solute carrier family.
