Also known as
AtGABP; bidirectional amino acid transporter 1; GABA permease; GABP
Summary
Encodes a bidirectional amino acid transporter that can transport ala, arg, glu and lys, GABA but not pro with both export and import activity. Its expression is localized in the vascular tissues suggesting a function in amino acids export from the phloem into sink tissue.
