Gene

SLC52A2

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
SLC52A2
Name
solute carrier family 52 member 2
Synonyms
  • BVVLS2
  • D15Ertd747e
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables 4-hydroxybutyrate receptor activity and riboflavin transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in riboflavin transport. Located in plasma membrane. Implicated in Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 2.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a membrane protein which belongs to the riboflavin transporter family. In humans, riboflavin must be obtained by intestinal absorption because it cannot be synthesized by the body. The water-soluble vitamin riboflavin is processed to the coenzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) which then act as intermediaries in many cellular metabolic reactions. Paralogous members of the riboflavin transporter gene family are located on chromosomes 17 and 20. Unlike other members of this family, this gene has higher expression in brain tissue than small intestine. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 2 - an autosomal recessive progressive neurologic disorder characterized by deafness, bulbar dysfunction, and axial and limb hypotonia.
