SLC22A12 blocking peptide
SLC22A12 Peptide - N-terminal region
Target Description: SLC22A12 is required for efficient urate re-absorption in the kidney. SLC22A12 regulates blood urate levels. SLC22A12 mediates saturable urate uptake by facilitating the exchange of urate against organic anions.The protein encoded by this gene is a urate transporter and urate-anion exchanger which regulates the level of urate in the blood. This protein is an integral membrane protein primarily found in kidney. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the organic anion transporter (OAT) family, and it acts as a urate transporter to regulate urate levels in blood. This protein is an integral membrane protein primarily found in epithelial cells of the proximal tubule of the kidney. An elevated level of serum urate, hyperuricemia, is associated with increased incidences of gout, and mutations in this gene cause renal hypouricemia type 1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2013]
Uniprot Description
SLC22A12: Required for efficient urate re-absorption in the kidney. Regulates blood urate levels. Mediates saturable urate uptake by facilitating the exchange of urate against organic anions. Defects in SLC22A12 are the cause of hypouricemia renal type 1 (RHUC1). A disorder characterized by impaired uric acid reabsorption at the apical membrane of proximal renal tubule cells, and high urinary urate excretion. Patients often appear asymptomatic, but may be subject to exercise-induced acute renal failure, chronic renal dysfunction and nephrolithiasis. Belongs to the major facilitator (TC 2.A.1) superfamily. Organic cation transporter (TC 2.A.1.19) family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SLC22A12 slc22a12 (Catalog #AAA3232172) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's SLC22A12 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC22A12 slc22a12 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SLC22A12, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
