Source: NCBI Gene (ID 246787)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 246787)
Symbol: Slc5a2
Full name: solute carrier family 5 (sodium/glucose cotransporter), member 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Also known as: Sglt2
Summary: Predicted to enable D-glucose transmembrane transporter activity; alpha-glucoside transmembrane transporter activity; and glucose:sodium symporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including alpha-glucoside transport; import across plasma membrane; and renal potassium excretion. Predicted to act upstream of or within carbohydrate transport and ion transport. Predicted to be located in brush border membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Is expressed in urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in renal glycosuria. Orthologous to human SLC5A2 (solute carrier family 5 member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
