Description

SLC22A14 encodes a member of the solute carrier family 22 (organic cation transporter) family. The protein is predicted to function as an organic cation transporter, involved in the transport of small organic cations across cellular membranes. Expression is enriched in testis and kidney, suggesting a role in male fertility and renal transport.

Protein Summary

SLC22A14 is a 551-amino acid transmembrane protein with 12 predicted alpha-helical domains, characteristic of the major facilitator superfamily. It functions as an organic cation transporter, likely mediating the uptake of endogenous and exogenous cations. Expression is highest in testis and kidney, with potential roles in spermatogenesis and renal secretion.
