Gene information for SLCO1A2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6579
Official gene symbolSLCO1A2
Full namesolute carrier organic anion transporter family, member 1A2
Aliases,OATP,OATP-A,OATP1A2,SLC21A3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a sodium-independent transporter which mediates cellular uptake of organic ions in the liver. Its substrates include bile acids, bromosulphophthalein, and some steroidal compounds. The protein is a member of the SLC21A family of solute carriers. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq]
