Description

solute carrier family 2 (facilitated glucose transporter), member 9

Gene Summary

Enables D-glucose transmembrane transporter activity and urate transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in urate transport. Acts upstream of or within D-glucose transmembrane transport. Located in apical plasma membrane and basolateral plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; heart; liver; metanephros; and thymus primordium. Used to study abdominal obesity-metabolic syndrome and hyperuricemia. Orthologous to human SLC2A9 (solute carrier family 2 member 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
