solute carrier organic anion transporter family, member 1E1
Synonyms
Oatp1e1
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable bile acid transmembrane transporter activity and sodium-independent organic anion transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in bile acid and bile salt transport and sodium-independent organic anion transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within monoatomic ion transport and transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in basolateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in brain; gill; and skeletal muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in bilirubin metabolic disorder and gastrointestinal stromal tumor. Orthologous to human SLCO1B1 (solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B1); SLCO1B3 (solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B3); and SLCO1B7 (solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B7 (putative)).
