Gene ontology (GO)Gene Ontology (GO) annotations describing the biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components associated with a gene.
Essential component of the Ost-alpha/Ost-beta complex, a heterodimer that acts as the intestinal basolateral transporter responsible for bile acid export from enterocytes into portal blood (PubMed:16317684). Modulates SLC51A glycosylation, membr
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed with a high expression in ileum. Expressed in testis, colon, liver, small intestine, kidney, ovary and adrenal gland; and at low levels in heart, lung, brain, pituitary, thyroid gland, uterus, prostate, mammary gland a

ClinVar entries with uncertain/conflicting evidence, and associations from other databases
(OMIM, Orphanet, GWAS, etc.) where the gene is not established as causal.
Diseases Linked via Similar GenesDiseases curated for genes most similar to SLC51B (see Related Genes above), that are NOT already directly curated for SLC51B itself -- a lead worth checking, not a confirmed association.
