| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables glycine transmembrane transporter activity and thyroid hormone transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in amino acid transport and thyroid hormone transport. Acts upstream of or within L-amino acid transport. Located in apical plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and immune system. Used to study sensorineural hearing loss. Orthologous to human SLC7A8 (solute carrier family 7 member 8). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted mutation display hypoactivity, decreased motor performance, and resistance to pharmacologically induced seizures. [provided by MGI curators] |
