| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables carnitine transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within carnitine transport. Located in peroxisomal membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; liver; lung; nasal cavity mucosa; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Crohn's disease; cardiomyopathy; inherited metabolic disorder; and systemic primary carnitine deficiency disease. Orthologous to human SLC22A5 (solute carrier family 22 member 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit no detectable phenotypic abnormalities. [provided by MGI curators] |
