Name | SLC52A2 |
---|---|
Synonyms | GPR172A, PAR1, RFT3 |
Function | Plasma membrane transporter mediating the uptake by cells of the water soluble vitamin B2/riboflavin that plays a key role in biochemical oxidation-reduction reactions of the carbohydrate, lipid, and amino acid metabolism (PubMed:20463145, PubMed:22864630, PubMed:23243084, PubMed:24253200, PubMed:27702554). Humans are unable to synthesize vitamin B2/riboflavin and must obtain it via intestinal absorption (PubMed:20463145). May also act as a receptor for 4- hydroxybutyrate (Probable). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in brain, fetal brain and salivary gland. Weakly expressed in other tissues. |
