About Slc2a1

Primary_assembly 5: 132,717,196-132,745,416 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026978.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 374 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 52 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 185.1), Kidney (RPKM 121.2) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including D-glucose transmembrane transporter activity; dehydroascorbic acid transmembrane transporter activity; and kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular hyperosmotic response; cellular response to mechanical stimulus; and dehydroascorbic acid transport. Located in several cellular components, including Z disc; basolateral plasma membrane; and intercalated disc. Colocalizes with sarcolemma. Biomarker of hypertension; hypothyroidism; and middle cerebral artery infarction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in brain disease (multiple); carbohydrate metabolic disorder; myelomeningocele; obesity; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human SLC2A1 (solute carrier family 2 member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
