2.A.27.1.1
Glutamate:Na+ symporter, GltS, of 401 aas and 12 TMSs.  It transports L- and D-glutamate, α-methylglutamate and homocysteate. Swapping the order of the two halves (repeat units) does not decrease activity (Dobrowolski and Lolkema, 2010).

Accession Number:P0AER8
Protein Name:Sodium/glutamate symport carrier protein GltS aka GLTC aka B3653
Length:401
Molecular Weight:42425.00
Species:Escherichia coli [83333]
Number of TMSs:10
Location1 / Topology2 / Orientation3: Cell inner membrane1 / Multi-pass membrane protein2
Substrate L-glutamate(1-), glutamate(2-)
