Gene: SLC13A3

Alternate names for this Gene: ARLIAK|NADC3|SDCT2

Gene Summary: Mammalian sodium-dicarboxylate cotransporters transport succinate and other Krebs cycle intermediates. They fall into 2 categories based on their substrate affinity: low affinity and high affinity. Both the low- and high-affinity transporters play an important role in the handling of citrate by the kidneys. The protein encoded by this gene represents the high-affinity form. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, although the full-length nature of some of them have not been characterized yet.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 20

Location in Chromosome : 20q13.12

Description of this Gene: solute carrier family 13 member 3

Type of Gene: protein-coding
