About MFSD12

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:3,538,275-3,557,586 (from NCBI)

This gene has 14 transcripts (splice variants), 228 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 23.3), skin (RPKM 11.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables cysteine transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in cysteine transmembrane transport; pigment metabolic process involved in pigmentation; and regulation of melanin biosynthetic process. Located in lysosome and melanosome. Part of late endosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
