Function
SLC6A8 is a Creatine:sodium symporter which mediates the uptake of creatine. Plays an important role in supplying creatine to the brain via the blood-brain barrier (By similarity)[1][2][3][4][5][6].
-
Subcellular Localization
Cell membrane; Apical cell membrane
-
Expression
Tissue_Specificity: Predominantly expressed in skeletal muscle and kidney. Also found in brain, heart, colon, testis and prostate. -
