Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 19 (SLC6A19)

Target
SLC6A19
Molecular classification
Transporter, Solute Carrier, Membrane Protein
01

Overview

SLC6A19 encodes the B0AT1 protein, a sodium-dependent neutral amino acid transporter located primarily in the intestinal and renal epithelial cells. It plays a critical role in the absorption and reabsorption of neutral amino acids. Mutations in SLC6A19 cause Hartnup disease, characterized by impaired neutral amino acid transport and increased urinary excretion.
