Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 26503
Gene name Solute carrier family 17 member 5
Gene symbol SLC17A5
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ASTISSDNSDSDSIALINSIASDSLDVEAT
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6q13
Summary This gene encodes a membrane transporter that exports free sialic acids that have been cleaved off of cell surface lipids and proteins from lysosomes. Mutations in this gene cause sialic acid storage diseases, including infantile sialic acid storage disor

Protein name Sialin (H(+)/nitrate cotransporter) (H(+)/sialic acid cotransporter) (AST) (Membrane glycoprotein HP59) (Solute carrier family 17 member 5) (Vesicular excitatory amino acid transporter) (VEAT)
Protein function Multifunctional anion transporter that operates via two distinct transport mechanisms, namely proton-coupled anion cotransport and membrane potential-dependent anion transport (PubMed:15510212, PubMed:21781115, PubMed:22778404, PubMed:23889254).
