======= SLC23A2 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: SLC23A2 * **Official Name**: solute carrier family 23 member 2 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=9962|9962]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9UGH3|Q9UGH3]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=SLC23A2&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20SLC23A2|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/603791|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: The absorption of vitamin C into the body and its distribution to organs requires two sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters. This gene encodes one of the two required transporters and the encoded protein accounts for tissue-specific uptake of vitamin C. Previously, this gene had an official symbol of SLC23A1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Sodium/ascorbate cotransporter. Mediates electrogenic uptake of vitamin C, with a stoichiometry of 2 Na(+) for each ascorbate. |Xan ur permease| |L-ascorbic acid transmembrane transport| |L-ascorbate:sodium symporter activity| |sodium-dependent L-ascorbate transmembrane transporter activity| |nucleobase transmembrane transporter activity| |transepithelial L-ascorbic acid transport| |L-ascorbic acid transmembrane transporter activity| |coenzyme transport| |nucleobase transport| |L-ascorbic acid metabolic process| |vitamin transmembrane transport| |transepithelial transport| |basal plasma membrane| |monosaccharide transmembrane transport| |carbohydrate transmembrane transport| |vitamin transport| |transporter activity| |cofactor transport| |carbohydrate transport| |water-soluble vitamin metabolic process| |vitamin metabolic process| |organic acid transmembrane transport| |carboxylic acid transmembrane transport| |sodium ion transport| |basolateral plasma membrane| |monosaccharide metabolic process| |coenzyme metabolic process| |anion transmembrane transport| |carboxylic acid transport| |organic acid transport| |apical plasma membrane| |response to oxidative stress| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |cofactor metabolic process| |organic anion transport| |carbohydrate metabolic process| |anion transport| |metal ion transport| |cation transport| |carboxylic acid metabolic process| |ion transmembrane transport| |oxoacid metabolic process| |organic acid metabolic process| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |integral component of plasma membrane| |small molecule metabolic process| |nitrogen compound transport| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp81|Selumetinib 20μM R02 exp81]]|-2.1| |[[:results:exp432|YM155 0.001μM R08 exp432]]|-1.87| |[[:results:exp165|RO-3306 3 to 4μM on day4 R04 exp165]]|-1.8| |[[:results:exp261|ABT-702 5μM R06 exp261]]|-1.78| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
