SLC26A9, Official Symbol SLC26A9provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 26 member 9provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:14469 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000174502 MIM:608481; AllianceGenome:HGNC:14469 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 Summary This gene is one member of a family of sulfate/anion transporter genes. Family members are well conserved in their genomic (number and size of exons) and protein (aa length among species) structures yet have markedly different tissue expression patterns. The product of this gene is a highly selective chloride ion channel regulated by WNK kinases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding differing isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008] Expression Biased expression in salivary gland (RPKM 19.0), stomach (RPKM 12.3) and 5 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
