Predicted to enable L-alanine transmembrane transporter activity; L-leucine transmembrane transporter activity; and aromatic amino acid transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in L-leucine import across plasma membrane. Located in cell cortex. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; adult heart; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; ganglia; and gut section. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lung non-small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human SLC3A2 (solute carrier family 3 member 2).
The gene CD98 heavy chain is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\CD98hc (CG2791, FBgn0037533). It is a protein_coding_gene from Dmel. It has 4 annotated transcripts and 4 polypeptides (3 unique). Gene sequence location is 3R:7974409..7978428. Its molecular function is unknown. It is involved in the biological process described with: L-leucine import across plasma membrane; amino acid transport; phenylalanine transport; carbohydrate metabolic process; L-alanine import across plasma membrane. 9 alleles are reported. No phenotypic data is available. The phenotypic classes of alleles include: lethal; viable; fertile; lethal - all die during embryonic stage. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of very high expression to a trough of moderately high expression. Peak expression observed within 00-12 hour embryonic stages, during early pupal stages, in adult female stages.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see JBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
