Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 6536
Gene name Solute carrier family 6 member 9
Gene symbol SLC6A9
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GCENSGGLYT1
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1p34.1
Summary The amino acid glycine acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. The protein encoded by this gene is one of two transporters that stop glycine signaling by removing it from the synaptic cleft. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]
