Sodium-dependent neutral amino acid transporter B(0)AT2

SLC6A15 shows structural characteristics of an Na+ and Cl−-dependent neurotransmitter transporter, including 12 transmembrane (TM) domains, intracellular N and C termini, and large extracellular loops containing multiple N-glycosylation sites. == Clinical relevance ==

Variants of this gene linked with depression are associated with reduced SLC6A15 expression in the human hippocampus, as well as decreased volume of this brain region. == References ==
