Unc-93 homolog A (C. elegans) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UNC93A gene.[5]
Unc93A is a major facilitator superfamily (MFS), and a putative solute carrier in humans.[6][7] It belongs to the atypical SLCs that was recently listed.[6] It is therefore presumed that UNC93A is a transporter protein.
UNC93A is closely related to UNC93B1 and MFSD11.[8][9]
UNC93A is affected by amino acid deprivation in cell cortex cultures[7][8] and starvation in in vivo samples.[8]
It is expressed in neurons, with staining close to the plasma membrane.[8]
