Predicted to enable [acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid biosynthetic process and mitochondrial small ribosomal subunit assembly. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in optic atrophy. Orthologous to human MCAT
solute carrier family 7 (cationic amino acid transporter, y+ system), member 1
Enables L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity and virus receptor activity. Involved in L-arginine transmembrane transport and L-ornithine transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane and basolateral plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing c
omplex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cranium; genitourinary system; immune system; and jaw. Orthologous to human SLC7A1 (solute carrier family 7 member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
