GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC22A16 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CT2, FLIPT2, OAT6, OKB1
Description
Solute carrier family 22 (organic cation/carnitine transporter), member 16 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the organic zwitterion transporter protein family which transports carnitine. The encoded protein has also been shown to transport anticancer drugs like bleomycin (PMID: 20037140) successful treatment has been correlated with the level of activity of this transporter in tumor cells.
