About Slc5a2

Primary_assembly 1: 182,847,106-182,853,306 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026974.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues, 13 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 171.3) and Lung (RPKM 4.8).

Summary

Enables glucose:sodium symporter activity. Involved in glucose transmembrane transport; negative regulation of urine volume; and renal potassium excretion. Located in brush border membrane. Is integral component of membrane. Used to study hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in renal glycosuria. Orthologous to human SLC5A2 (solute carrier family 5 member 2).
