Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 256471
Gene name Major facilitator superfamily domain containing 8
Gene symbol MFSD8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CCMDCLN7SLC74A1
Chromosome 4
Chromosome location 4q28.2
Summary This gene encodes a ubiquitous integral membrane protein that contains a transporter domain and a major facilitator superfamily (MFS) domain. Other members of the major facilitator superfamily transport small solutes through chemiosmotic ion gradients. Th
