Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 23657
Gene name Solute carrier family 7 member 11
Gene symbol SLC7A11
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CCBR1xCT
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q28.3
Summary This gene encodes a member of a heteromeric, sodium-independent, anionic amino acid transport system that is highly specific for cysteine and glutamate. In this system, designated Xc(-), the anionic form of cysteine is transported in exchange for glutamat
