Slc20a2 - solute carrier family 20, member 2 Gene

Predicted to enable inorganic phosphate transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in phosphate ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within phosphate ion transport; sodium ion transport; and viral process. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; liver; male reproductive gland or organ; spleen; and yolk sac. Used to study basal ganglia calcification. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in basal ganglia calcification. Orthologous to human SLC20A2 (solute carrier family 20 member 2).
