About Slc24a5

Summary

Predicted to enable Calcium Channel activity and calcium, potassium:sodium antiporter activity. Predicted to be involved in calcium ion transport; cellular calcium ion homeostasis; and melanocyte differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within ion transmembrane transport and negative regulation of melanin biosynthetic process. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in trans-Golgi network. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculocutaneous albinism type VI. Orthologous to human SLC24A5 (solute carrier family 24 member 5).
