This transporter is the primary mechanism for uptake of intestinal bile acids by apical cells in the distal ileum. Bile acids are the catabolic product of cholesterol metabolism, so this protein is also critical for cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause primary bile acid malabsorption (PBAM); muatations in this gene may also be associated with other diseases of the liver and intestines, such as familial hypertriglyceridemia (FHTG). [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: Plays a critical role in the sodium-dependent reabsorption of bile acids from the lumen of the small intestine. Plays a key role in cholesterol metabolism. |SBF| |bile acid:sodium symporter activity| |bile acid and bile salt transport| |microvillus| |monocarboxylic acid transport| |organic hydroxy compound transport| |sodium ion transport| |carboxylic acid transport| |organic acid transport| |lipid transport| |apical plasma membrane| |lipid localization| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |organic anion transport| |anion transport| |metal ion transport| |response to bacterium| |cation transport| |transmembrane transport| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
