SLC29A4 - solute carrier family 29 member 4 Gene
Also Known as ENT4; PMAT
Species: Homo sapiens
About SLC29A4
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 35.4), adrenal (RPKM 3.7) and 4 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the SLC29A/ENT transporter protein family. The encoded membrane protein catalyzes the reuptake of monoamines into presynaptic neurons, thus determining the intensity and duration of monoamine neural signaling. It has been shown to transport several compounds, including serotonin, dopamine, and the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
