Summary: Predicted to enable choline transmembrane transporter activity and ethanolamine transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including choline transport; ethanolamine transport; and positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial outer membrane and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in membrane. Orthologous to human SLC44A2 (solute carrier family 44 member 2 (CTL2 blood group)).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
