======= SLC7A3 =======
== Gene Information ==
* **Official Symbol**: SLC7A3
* **Official Name**: solute carrier family 7 member 3
* **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A
* **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=84889|84889]]
* **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q8WY07|Q8WY07]]
* **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=SLC7A3&organism=9606|BioGRID]]

== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes a member of the solute carrier family 7. The encoded protein is a sodium-independent cationic amino acid transporter. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcripts that encoded the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010].
* **UniProt Summary**: Mediates the uptake of the cationic amino acids arginine, lysine and ornithine in a sodium-independent manner. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11591158}.
