SLC1A4 solute carrier family 1 member 4

Gene ID: 6509, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SATT; ASCT1; SPATCCM

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-dependent neutral amino acid transporter for alanine, serine, cysteine, and threonine. Defects in this gene have been associated with developmental delay, microcephaly, and intellectual disability. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
