Gene ID: 11000

About SLC27A3

Cytogenetic location: 1q21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:153,775,407-153,780,157 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 202 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in lung (RPKM 12.3), fat (RPKM 11.5) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene belongs to a family of integral membrane proteins and encodes a protein that is involved in lipid metabolism. The increased expression of this gene in human neural stem cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells suggests that it plays an important role in early brain development. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with autism spectrum disorders. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2017]
