Catalysis of the transfer of lysine from one side of a membrane to the other. In high affinity transport the transporter is able to bind the solute even if it is only present at very low concentrations. Catalysis of the transfer of amino acids from one side of a membrane to the other. Amino acids are organic molecules that contain an amino group and a carboxyl group. Catalysis of the transfer of L-lysine from the inside of the cell to the outside of the cell across a membrane. Catalysis of the reaction: lysine(out) + cadaverine(in) = lysine(in) + cadaverine(out). Catalysis of the transfer of basic amino acids from one side of a membrane to the other. Acidic amino acids have a pH above 7. Catalysis of the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: lysine(out) + H+(out) = lysine(in) + H+(in). Catalysis of the transfer of an L-amino acid from one side of a membrane to the other. L-amino acids are the L-enantiomers of amino acids. Catalysis of the transfer of L-lysine from one side of a membrane to the other. L-lysine is 2,6-diaminohexanoic acid.
