SLC17A3, Official Symbol SLC17A3provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 17 member 3provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:10931 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000124564 MIM:611034; AllianceGenome:HGNC:10931 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 NPT4; GOUT4; UAQTL4 Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a voltage-driven transporter that excretes intracellular urate and organic anions from the blood into renal tubule cells. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The longer isoform is a plasma membrane protein with transporter activity while the shorter isoform localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum.
