Summary
Predicted to enable symporter activity. Predicted to be involved in sodium ion transport. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including intestine; nervous system; non-striated muscle; pharynx; and rectal gland cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital hypothyroidism and thyroid dyshormonogenesis 1. Orthologous to several human genes including SLC5A12 (solute carrier family 5 member 12) and SLC5A8 (solute carrier family 5 member 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
