SLC36A1, Official Symbol SLC36A1provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 36 member 1provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:18761 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000123643 MIM:606561; AllianceGenome:HGNC:18761 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as Dct1; PAT1; LYAAT1; TRAMD3 Summary This gene encodes a member of the eukaryote-specific amino acid/auxin permease (AAAP) 1 transporter family. The encoded protein functions as a proton-dependent, small amino acid transporter. This gene is clustered with related family members on chromosome 5q33.1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
