About SLC22A3

Cytogenetic location: 6q25.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:160,348,378-160,452,577 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 527 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 29.4), prostate (RPKM 6.3) and 10 other tissues.

Summary

Polyspecific organic cation transporters in the liver, kidney, intestine, and Other organs are critical for elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins. This gene is one of three similar cation transporter genes located in a cluster on chromosome 6. The encoded protein contains twelve putative transmembrane domains and is a plasma integral membrane protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
