Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4891
Gene name Solute carrier family 11 member 2
Gene symbol SLC11A2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AHMIO1DCT1DMT1NRAMP2
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12q13.12
Summary This gene encodes a member of the solute carrier family 11 protein family. The product of this gene transports divalent metals and is involved in iron absorption. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypochromic microcytic anemia with iron overload.
