Gene information for SLC2A9 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID56606
Official gene symbolSLC2A9
Full namesolute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 9
Aliases,GLUT9,GLUTX,UAQTL2,URATv1,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the SLC2A facilitative glucose transporter family. Members of this family play a significant role in maintaining glucose homeostasis. The encoded protein may play a role in the development and survival of chondrocytes in cartilage matrices. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
