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]
