About SLC38A5

Cytogenetic location: Xp11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:48,458,544-48,470,260 (from NCBI)

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Broad expression in pancreas (RPKM 19.9), bone marrow (RPKM 15.5) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a system N sodium-coupled amino acid transporter. The encoded protein transports glutamine, asparagine, histidine, serine, alanine, and glycine across the cell membrane, but does not transport charged Amino acids, imino acids, or N-alkylated Amino acids. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
