STAINING SUMMARY

GENE INFORMATION
Gene name	SLC6A8 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms	CRTR, CT1
Description	Solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter), member 8 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene 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, Dec 2008]
