Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 6535

About SLC6A8

Cytogenetic location: Xq28 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:153,687,926-153,696,593 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 187 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in small intestine (RPKM 30.0), heart (RPKM 29.5) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein whose function is to transport creatine into and out of cells. Defects in this gene can result in X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
