Symbol: Slc2a9
Full name: solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 9
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: GLUT-9; Glut9; SLC2A9B; SLC2a9A
Summary: Enables glucose transmembrane transporter activity and urate transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in urate transport. Acts upstream of or within glucose transmembrane transport. Located in apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and nuclear envelope. Is integral component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; heart; liver; metanephros; and thymus primordium. Used to study abdominal obesity-metabolic syndrome and hyperuricemia. Orthologous to human SLC2A9 (solute carrier family 2 member 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
