SLC6A8 Gene (Protein Coding)

Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 8

GC0XP153688
GIFtS:
45
The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein whose function is to transport creatine into and out of cells. Defects in this gene can result in X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008] See more...
