======= SLC34A2 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: SLC34A2 * **Official Name**: solute carrier family 34 member 2 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=10568|10568]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/O95436|O95436]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=SLC34A2&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20SLC34A2|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/604217|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: The protein encoded by this gene is a pH-sensitive sodium-dependent phosphate transporter. Phosphate uptake is increased at lower pH. Defects in this gene are a cause of pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: May be involved in actively transporting phosphate into cells via Na(+) cotransport. It may be the main phosphate transport protein in the intestinal brush border membrane. May have a role in the synthesis of surfactant in lungs' alveoli. |Na Pi cotrans| |sodium-dependent phosphate transport| |sodium-dependent phosphate transmembrane transporter activity| |sodium ion binding| |cellular divalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |cellular phosphate ion homeostasis| |cellular trivalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |sodium:phosphate symporter activity| |phosphate ion homeostasis| |phosphate ion binding| |divalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |trivalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |cellular monovalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |cellular anion homeostasis| |phosphate ion transport| |monovalent inorganic anion homeostasis| |brush border| |brush border membrane| |anion homeostasis| |response to estrogen| |sodium ion transmembrane transport| |vesicle| |sodium ion transport| |inorganic anion transport| |apical plasma membrane| |in utero embryonic development| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |inorganic cation transmembrane transport| |anion transport| |cation transmembrane transport| |chordate embryonic development| |metal ion transport| |cellular ion homeostasis| |inorganic ion transmembrane transport| |embryo development ending in birth or egg hatching| |inorganic ion homeostasis| |cellular chemical homeostasis| |ion homeostasis| |cation transport| |cellular homeostasis| |ion transmembrane transport| |embryo development| |chemical homeostasis| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |homeostatic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
