SLC25A12, Official Symbol SLC25A12provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 25 member 12provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:10982 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000115840 MIM:603667; AllianceGenome:HGNC:10982 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 AGC1; DEE39; ARALAR; EIEE39 Summary This gene encodes a calcium-binding mitochondrial carrier protein. The encoded protein localizes to the mitochondria and is involved in the exchange of aspartate for glutamate across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with autism, and mutations in this gene may also be a cause of global cerebral hypomyelination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene.
