Function
S15A2_HUMAN Proton-coupled intake of oligopeptides of 2 to 4 amino acids with a preference for dipeptides (PubMed:7756356). Transports the dipeptide-like aminopeptidase inhibitor bestatin (By similarity). Can also transport the aminocephalosporin antibiotic cefadroxil (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P46029][UniProtKB:Q63424][1]
