SLC6A20 Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Transport of small hydrophilic substances across cell membranes is mediated by substrate-specific transporter proteins which have been classified into several families of related genes. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the subgroup of transporter with unidentified substrates within the Na+ and Cl- coupled transporter family. This gene is expressed in kidney, and its alternative splicing generates 2 transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
SLC6A20: Mediates the calcium-dependent uptake of imino acids such as L-proline, N-methyl-L-proline and pipecolate as well as N- methylated amino acids. Involved in the transport of glycine. Defects in SLC6A20 are a cause of hyperglycinuria (HG). It is a condition characterized by excess of glycine in the urine. In some cases it is associated with renal colic and renal oxalate stones. Defects in SLC6A20 are a cause of iminoglycinuria (IG). It is a disorder of renal tubular reabsorption of glycine and imino acids (proline and hydroxyproline), marked by excessive levels of all three substances in the urine. Haploinsufficiency of SLC6A20 combined with deficiency of the neutral amino acid transporter SLC6A19 or partially inactivating mutations in SLC36A2, is responsible for iminoglycinuria. Additional polymorphisms and mutations in SLC6A18 can contribute to the IG phenotype in some families. Belongs to the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) (TC 2.A.22) family. SLC6A20 subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SLC6A20 slc6a20 (Catalog #AAA9419644) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The SLC6A20 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's SLC6A20 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western Blot: 1:1000-3000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SLC6A20 slc6a20 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 "SLC6A20, Polyclonal Antibody" 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
