An amino acid transporter is a membrane transport protein that transports amino acids. They are mainly of the solute carrier family.

Solute carrier family examples

VIAAT

Vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter (VIAAT) is responsible for the storage of GABA and glycine in neuronal synaptic vesicles.12
