This family of transporters show conservation of 12 transmembrane helices as well as functionally significant amino acid residues (Joost and Thorens, 2001 [PubMed 11780753]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008] Expression Broad expression in prostate (RPKM 9.5), endometrium (RPKM 4.6) and 18 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
