Description
SLC67A1 encodes a member of the solute carrier family 67, predicted to function as a transmembrane transporter. The protein is localized to the plasma membrane and may be involved in small molecule transport. Expression data suggest broad tissue distribution with highest levels in the kidney and liver.

Protein Summary
SLC67A1 is a 456-amino acid transmembrane protein with 12 predicted alpha-helical domains, characteristic of the major facilitator superfamily (MFS). It is predicted to function as an organic solute transporter, though its specific substrate remains unknown. The protein is expressed in kidney, liver, and brain, and mutations are linked to neurodevelopmental disorders.
