Gene Information

human ... SLC6A4(6532)

General description

Solute carrier family 6 member 4 (SLC6A4) is also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter (5-HTT). It is an integral membrane protein, which is mapped to human chromosome 17q11.2. The encoded protein is a member of the SLC6 (solute carrier family 6) gene family and is mainly expressed in brain and blood cells.

Immunogen

Peptide with sequence C-KERIIKSITPETPT, from the C-terminal region of the protein sequence according to NP_001036.1

Biochem/physiol Actions

Solute carrier family 6 member 4 (SLC6A4) catalyzes the transport of neurotransmitter serotonin from the synaptic space into presynaptic neurons. It plays a vital role in mood and anxiety regulation. Mutation in the gene may alter the expression of serotonin (5HT) in the synaptic cleft, which ultimately leads to schizophrenia. Allelic variations in the gene increase the risk of susceptibility to autism and rigid-compulsive behaviors.
