NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the organic zwitterion transporter protein family which transports carnitine. The encoded protein has also been shown to transport anticancer drugs like bleomycin (PMID: 20037140) successful treatment has been correlated with the level of activity of this transporter in tumor cells.

Uniprot Description
SLC22A16: High affinity carnitine transporter; the uptake is partially sodium-ion dependent. Thought to mediate the L-carnitine secretion mechanism from testis epididymal epithelium into the lumen which is involved in the maturation of spermatozoa. Also transports organic cations such as tetraethylammonium (TEA) and doxorubicin. The uptake of TEA is inhibited by various organic cations. The uptake of doxorubicin is sodium-independent. Belongs to the major facilitator (TC 2.A.1) superfamily. Organic cation transporter (TC 2.A.1.19) family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Hamster CT2 slc22a16 (Catalog #AAA9362351) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9362351 ELISA Kit recognizes Hamster CT2. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Carnitine Transporter 2 (CT2), ELISA Kit" 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
