Abstract
Nutrient sensing and signalling mechanisms controlling the System A transporter SNAT2 have been assessed. SNAT2 appears to be an amino acid (AA) sensor which exerts autoregulatory control of transcription and, potentially, transporter turnover. An additional sensor for large neutral AA may also control SNAT2 through the JNK pathway.
