Gene information for SLC22A4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6583
Official gene symbolSLC22A4
Full namesolute carrier family 22 (organic cation/ergothioneine transporter), member 4
Aliases,MGC34546,MGC40524,OCTN1,
Gene summaryPolyspecific organic cation transporters in the liver, kidney, intestine, and other organs are critical for elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins. The encoded protein is an organic cation transporter and plasma integral membrane protein containing eleven putative transmembrane domains as well as a nucleotide-binding site motif. Transport by this protein is at least partially ATP-dependent. [provided by RefSeq]
