AAT-1

CELE_F27C8.1, F27C8.1
aat-1 encodes an amino acid transporter catalytic subunit; when co-expressed in Xenopus oocytes with the ATG-2 glycoprotein subunit, AAT-1 is able to facilitate amino acid uptake and exchange, showing a relatively high affinity for small and some large neutral amino acids; in addition, AAT-1 is able to covalently associate with ATG-2 or ATG-1 to form heterodimers in the Xenopus expression system; when co-expressed with ATG-2, AAT-1 localizes to the cell surface of oocytes, but when expressed alone or with ATG-1, AAT-1 localizes intracellularly.
