Summary
Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
This gene encodes a member of the major facilitator superfamily. The encoded transmembrane protein is a calcium transporter. Unlike the related protein feline leukemia virus subgroup C receptor 1, the protein encoded by this locus does not bind to feline |

| Protein name |
Choline/ethanolamine transporter FLVCR2 (Calcium-chelate transporter) (CCT) (Feline leukemia virus subgroup C receptor-related protein 2) (Heme transporter FLVCR2) |
| Protein function |
Choline uniporter that specifically mediates choline uptake at the blood-brain-barrier (PubMed:38302740, PubMed:38778100). Responsible for the majority of choline uptake across the blood-brain-barrier from the circulation into the brain (By simi |
