Gene: SLC22A7

Alternate names for this Gene: NLT|OAT2|hOAT11

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is involved in the sodium-independent transport and excretion of organic anions, some of which are potentially toxic. The encoded protein is an integral membrane protein and appears to be localized to the basolateral membrane of the kidney. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 6

Location in Chromosome : 6p21.1

Description of this Gene: solute carrier family 22 member 7

Type of Gene: protein-coding
