== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Essential component of the Ost-alpha/Ost-beta complex, a heterodimer that acts as the intestinal basolateral transporter responsible for bile acid export from enterocytes into portal blood. Efficiently transports the major species of bile acids. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16317684}.
