SLC6A20 (Solute Carrier Family 6 Member 20) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Transport of glucose and other sugars, bile salts and organic acids, metal ions and amine compounds and NRF2 pathway. 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 SLC6A20 is a member of the subgroup of transporter with unidentified substrates within the Na+ and Cl- coupled transporter family. SLC6A20 is expressed in kidney, and its alternative splicing generates 2 transcript variants.
