SLC16A12: Products

SLC16A12 is a transmembrane transporter that likely plays a role in monocarboxylic acid transport. A mutation in SLC16A12 has been associated with juvenile cataracts, microcornea and renal glucosuria. There is tissue-specific variability of SLC16A12 transcript levels. It exhibits high expression in the eye and kidney, the two organs affected by Renal Glucosuria. SLC16A12 may be important for lens and kidney homeostasis and play a role in age-related cataract.
