Gene: SLC3A1

Alternate names for this Gene: ATR1|CSNU1|D2H|NBAT|RBAT

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a type II membrane glycoprotein which is one of the components of the renal amino acid transporter which transports neutral and basic amino acids in the renal tubule and intestinal tract. Mutations and deletions in this gene are associated with cystinuria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 2

Location in Chromosome : 2p21

Description of this Gene: solute carrier family 3 member 1

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: PREPL

Alternate names for this Gene: CMS22

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the prolyl oligopeptidase subfamily of serine peptidases. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypotonia-cystinuria syndrome, also known as the 2p21 deletion syndrome. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding either the same or different isoforms have been described for this gene.
