======= SLC24A5 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: SLC24A5 * **Official Name**: solute carrier family 24 member 5 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=283652|283652]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q71RS6|Q71RS6]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=SLC24A5&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20SLC24A5|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/609802|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: This gene is a member of the potassium-dependent sodium/calcium exchanger family and encodes an intracellular membrane protein with 2 large hydrophilic loops and 2 sets of multiple transmembrane-spanning segments. Sequence variation in this gene has been associated with differences in skin pigmentation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Cation exchanger involved in pigmentation, possibly by participating in ion transport in melanosomes. Predominant sodium- Calcium exchanger in melanocytes. Probably transports 1 Ca(2+) and 1 K(+) to the melanosome in exchange for 4 cytoplasmic Na(+). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16357253, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18166528}. |Na Ca ex| |negative regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthetic process| |negative regulation of melanin biosynthetic process| |calcium, potassium:sodium antiporter activity| |regulation of melanin biosynthetic process| |regulation of secondary metabolite biosynthetic process| |regulation of secondary metabolic process| |melanocyte differentiation| |pigment cell differentiation| |developmental pigmentation| |symporter activity| |calcium channel activity| |sodium ion transmembrane transport| |pigmentation| |trans-Golgi network membrane| |melanosome| |sodium ion transport| |potassium ion transmembrane transport| |potassium ion transport| |trans-Golgi network| |calcium ion transmembrane transport| |calcium ion transport| |anion transmembrane transport| |divalent metal ion transport| |divalent inorganic cation transport| |monovalent inorganic cation transport| |cellular calcium ion homeostasis| |calcium ion homeostasis| |cellular divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |divalent inorganic cation homeostasis| |cellular metal ion homeostasis| |inorganic cation transmembrane transport| |anion transport| |cation transmembrane transport| |metal ion homeostasis| |cellular cation homeostasis| |metal ion transport| |cellular ion homeostasis| |inorganic ion transmembrane transport| |cation homeostasis| |inorganic ion homeostasis| |cellular chemical homeostasis| |ion homeostasis| |cation transport| |cellular homeostasis| |ion transmembrane transport| |chemical homeostasis| |transmembrane transport| |ion transport| |negative regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |negative regulation of biosynthetic process| |homeostatic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
