Primary Identifier | MGI:2143484 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 103098 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables branched-chain amino acid:sodium symporter activity; neutral L-amino acid:sodium symporter activity; and proline:sodium symporter activity. Involved in L-leucine transport and proline transport. Located in membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system; central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; metanephros; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SLC6A15 (solute carrier family 6 member 15). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit decreased synaptosome transport activities but exhibit no behavioral abnormalities. [provided by MGI curators] |
