SLC22A16, solute carrier family 22 member 16

SLC22A16, solute carrier family 22 member 16

• 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.
