FLVCR1 - FLVCR heme transporter 1 Gene
Also Known as PCA; AXPC1; FLVCR; PCARP; MFSD7B; SLC49A1
Species: Homo sapiens
About FLVCR1
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 223 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in small intestine (RPKM 9.2), duodenum (RPKM 4.1) and 21 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the major facilitator superfamily of transporter proteins. The encoded protein is a heme transporter that may play a critical role in erythropoiesis by protecting developing erythroid cells from heme toxicity. This gene may play a role in posterior column ataxia with retinitis pigmentosa and the hematological disorder Diamond-Blackfan syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]
