SLC3A2 (solute carrier family 3 member 2), also known as CD98 or 4F2hc, is a multifunctional transmembrane protein that plays critical roles in amino acid transport, cell adhesion, and intracellular signaling. It serves as the heavy chain component of heterodimeric amino acid transporters, pairing with various light chains (e.g., LAT1. LAT2. y+LAT1) to form system L, y+L, or asc transporters. This partnership enables the uptake of essential neutral, cationic, and large neutral amino acids, linking cellular metabolism to growth signals through mTOR pathway activation.
Originally identified as a lymphocyte activation antigen (CD98), it is highly expressed in proliferating cells, including activated immune cells and cancer cells. Its dual functions include facilitating integrin-mediated cell adhesion and fusion processes, particularly in placental development and osteoclast activity. The extracellular domain of SLC3A2/CD98 contributes to cell-cell interactions, while its transmembrane domain anchors the light chain transporters.
Recombinant SLC3A2/CD98 proteins are engineered to study its structural and functional properties, often used in ligand-receptor interaction assays, antibody development, and mechanistic studies of amino acid transport. In therapeutic contexts, CD98 is investigated as a target for cancer immunotherapy due to its overexpression in tumors and role in supporting cancer cell proliferation. Additionally, its involvement in autoimmune diseases and viral entry mechanisms has spurred research into inhibitory antibodies or small molecules.
Produced typically in mammalian expression systems, recombinant CD98 retains post-translational modifications crucial for its native conformation and binding capabilities. Research applications span from elucidating amino acid dysregulation in metabolic disorders to developing diagnostic tools for malignancies. Its intersection of metabolic and adhesive functions continues to make SLC3A2/CD98 a compelling subject in both basic and translational biomedical research.
