Slc6a5 - solute carrier family 6 member 5 Gene
Also Known as GLYT2
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Slc6a5
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 210 orthologues, 20 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward (RPKM 649.2).
Summary
Enables glycine transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in glycine transport and neurotransmitter uptake. Located in dense core granule and endosome. Is active in glycinergic synapse. Is integral component of presynaptic membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hyperekplexia 3. Orthologous to human SLC6A5 (solute carrier family 6 member 5).
