About Slc7a11

Summary

Predicted to enable L-amino acid transmembrane transporter activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; oligopeptide transmembrane transport; and regulation of cellular amino acid metabolic process. Located in apical part of cell; astrocyte projection; and brush border membrane. Is expressed in brain; meninges; and sensory organ. Used to study Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome and platelet storage pool deficiency. Orthologous to human SLC7A11 (solute carrier family 7 member 11). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
