SLC28A2 - solute carrier family 28 member 2 Gene
Also Known as CNT2; HCNT2; SPNT1; HsT17153
Species: Homo sapiens
About SLC28A2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 198 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 43.4), duodenum (RPKM 31.3) and 4 other tissues.
Summary
Enables neurotransmitter transmembrane transporter activity and nucleoside transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in several processes, including nucleoside transport; purine nucleobase transmembrane transport; and pyrimidine-containing compound transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of brush border membrane; coated vesicle; and vesicle membrane. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane.
