Summary
Predicted to enable acetylcholine transmembrane transporter activity and xenobiotic transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including chemical synaptic transmission; serotonin transport; and xenobiotic transport. Predicted to be located in membrane and terminal bouton. Predicted to be part of AP-1 adaptor complex and AP-2 adaptor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 21. Orthologous to human SLC18A3 (solute carrier family 18 member A3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]
