| Definition | Homo sapiens solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, creatine), member 8 (SLC6A8), transcript variant 2, mRNA. |
| Product | sodium- and chloride-dependent creatine transporter 1 isoform 2 |
| Comment | Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membrane protein whose function is to transport creatine into and out of cells. Defects in this gene can result in X-linked creatine deficiency syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]. Transcript Variant: This variant (2) uses an alternate in-frame splice site in the central coding region, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (2) lacks a 10-aa segment but has the same N- and C-termini, compared to isoform 1. |
