Gene ID: 6534

About SLC6A7

Cytogenetic location: 5q32 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:150,190,062-150,211,063 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 124 orthologues and 19 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 4.6), small intestine (RPKM 0.9) and 2 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmitter gene family and encodes a high-affinity mammalian brain L-proline transporter protein. This transporter protein differs from Other sodium-dependent plasma membrane carriers by its pharmacological specificity, kinetic properties, and ionic requirements. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
