SLC36A1 solute carrier family 36 member 1

Gene ID: 206358, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: Dct1; PAT1; LYAAT1; TRAMD3

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the eukaryote-specific amino acid/auxin permease (AAAP) 1 transporter family. The encoded protein functions as a proton-dependent, small amino acid transporter. This gene is clustered with related family members on chromosome 5q33.1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
