SLC1A4 - solute carrier family 1 member 4 Gene

Also Known as SATT; ASCT1; SPATCCM

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 6509

About SLC1A4

Cytogenetic location: 2p14 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:64,988,479-65,023,865 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 33.8), adrenal (RPKM 12.8) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-dependent neutral Amino acid Transporter for alanine, serine, cysteine, and threonine. Defects in this gene have been associated with developmental delay, microcephaly, and intellectual disability. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
