Description
SLC22A24 (Solute Carrier Family 22 Member 24) encodes a member of the organic anion transporter (OAT) family. The protein, also known as OAT10, mediates the transport of organic anions and cations across cell membranes, playing a role in the renal and hepatic clearance of drugs, toxins, and endogenous metabolites. It is expressed predominantly in kidney and liver tissues.

Protein Summary
SLC22A24 (OAT10) is a 551-amino acid transmembrane protein with 12 predicted alpha-helical domains. It functions as a sodium-independent organic anion exchanger, facilitating the uptake of urate, para-aminohippurate, and various drugs. Localized to the basolateral membrane of renal proximal tubule cells and hepatocytes, it contributes to the elimination of endogenous and xenobiotic organic anions.
