Gene information for SLC29A4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID222962
Official gene symbolSLC29A4
Full namesolute carrier family 29 (nucleoside transporters), member 4
Aliases,ENT4,FLJ34923,PMAT,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the SLC29 family and encodes a plasma membrane protein with 11 transmembrane helices. This protein catalyzes the reuptake of monoamines into presynaptic neurons, thus determining the intensity and duration of monoamine neural signaling. It has been shown to transport several compounds, including serotonin, dopamine, and the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium. Alternate transcriptional splice variants which encode the same protein have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq]
