Entrez gene ID | | 64849 |
Official gene symbol | | SLC13A3 |
Full name | | solute carrier family 13 (sodium-dependent dicarboxylate transporter), member 3 |
Aliases | | ,NADC3,SDCT2, |
Gene summary | | Mammalian sodium-dicarboxylate cotransporters transport succinate and other Krebs cycle intermediates. They fall into 2 categories based on their substrate affinity: low affinity and high affinity. Both the low- and high-affinity transporters play an important role in the handling of citrate by the kidneys. The protein encoded by this gene represents the high-affinity form. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, although the full-length nature of some of them have not been characterized yet.
