About Slc5a5

Summary

Enables sodium:iodide symporter activity. Involved in iodide transmembrane transport and sodium ion transport. Is active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital hypothyroidism and thyroid dyshormonogenesis 1. Orthologous to human SLC5A5 (solute carrier family 5 member 5).
