GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

SLC23A1 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

SLC23A2, SVCT1, YSPL3

Description

Solute carrier family 23 (ascorbic acid transporter), member 1 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The absorption of vitamin C into the body and its distribution to organs requires two sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters. This gene encodes one of the two transporters. The encoded protein is active in bulk vitamin C transport involving epithelial surfaces. Previously, this gene had an official symbol of SLC23A2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]
