SLC3A1 solute carrier family 3 member 1

Gene ID: 6519, updated on 27-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: D2H; ATR1; NBAT; RBAT; CSNU1

Summary

This gene encodes a type II membrane glycoprotein which is one of the components of the renal amino acid transporter which transports neutral and basic amino acids in the renal tubule and intestinal tract. Mutations and deletions in this gene are associated with cystinuria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.
