Gene information for SLC22A1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6580
Official gene symbolSLC22A1
Full namesolute carrier family 22 (organic cation transporter), member 1
Aliases,HOCT1,OCT1,oct1_cds,
Gene summaryPolyspecific 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. This gene is one of three similar cation transporter genes located in a cluster on chromosome 6. The encoded protein contains twelve putative transmembrane domains and is a plasma integral membrane protein. Two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene, but only the longer variant encodes a functional transporter. [provided by RefSeq]
