GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC15A2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
PEPT2
Description
Solute carrier family 15 (oligopeptide transporter), member 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The mammalian kidney expresses a proton-coupled peptide transporter that is responsible for the absorption of small peptides, as well as beta-lactam antibiotics and other peptide-like drugs, from the tubular filtrate. This transporter, SLC15A2, belongs to the same gene family as SLC15A1 (MIM 600544), the proton-coupled peptide transporter found in the small intestine (Liu et al, 1995 [PubMed 7756356]).[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2011]
