GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC22A4 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
MGC34546, OCTN1
Description
Solute carrier family 22 (organic cation/zwitterion transporter), member 4 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Polyspecific 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, Jul 2008]
