Slc2a9 - solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 9 Gene

Also Known as Glut9; GLUT-9; SLC2A9B; SLC2a9A

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 117591

Summary

Enables glucose transmembrane transporter activity and urate transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in urate transport. Acts upstream of or within glucose transmembrane transport. Located in apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and nuclear envelope. Is integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; heart; liver; metanephros; and thymus primordium. Used to study abdominal obesity-metabolic syndrome and hyperuricemia. Orthologous to human SLC2A9 (solute carrier family 2 member 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
