About SLC28A3

Cytogenetic location: 9q21.32-q21.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:84,275,457-84,368,727 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in gall bladder (RPKM 4.2), bone marrow (RPKM 3.2) and 11 other tissues.

Summary

Nucleoside transporters, such as SLC28A3, regulate multiple cellular processes, including neurotransmission, vascular tone, adenosine concentration in the vicinity of cell surface receptors, and transport and metabolism of nucleoside drugs. SLC28A3 shows broad specificity for pyrimidine and purine nucleosides (Ritzel et al., 2001 [PubMed 11032837]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
