SLC49A4 solute carrier family 49 member 4 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene

Summary

Official Symbol: SLC49A4provided by HGNC
Official Full Name: solute carrier family 49 member 4provided by HGNC
Primary source: HGNC:HGNC:16628
See related: Ensembl:ENSG00000138463 MIM:602773; AllianceGenome:HGNC:16628
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: RCC4; DIRC2
Summary: This gene encodes a membrane-bound protein from the major facilitator superfamily of transporters. Disruption of this gene by translocation has been associated with haplo-insufficiency and renal cell carcinomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not yet been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

What's a GeneRIF?

Disrupted in renal carcinoma 2 (DIRC2/SLC49A4) is an H[+]-driven lysosomal pyridoxine exporter.
Title: Disrupted in renal carcinoma 2 (DIRC2/SLC49A4) is an H(+)-driven lysosomal pyridoxine exporter.
Data strongly support the idea that DIRC2 is an electrogenic lysosomal metabolite transporter which is subjected to and presumably modulated by limited proteolytic processing.
Title: Disrupted in renal carcinoma 2 (DIRC2), a novel transporter of the lysosomal membrane, is proteolytically processed by cathepsin L.
Gene disruption may result in haplo-insufficiency and, through this mechanism, in the onset of tumor growth.
Title: Disruption of a novel MFS transporter gene, DIRC2, by a familial renal cell carcinoma-associated t(2;3)(q35;q21).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
