Gene:
solute carrier family 25 (mitochondrial carrier; ornithine transporter) member 2
Gene ID:
201922
Symbol:
SLC25A2
Species:
1000
Description:
Located between the protocadherin beta and gamma gene clusters on chromosome 5, this intronless gene encodes a protein that is highly similar to an ornithine transporter localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Although its particular function is unknown, it most likely plays a role in metabolism as a mitochondrial transport protein.
