Solute Carrier Family 25, Member 35 (SLC25A35)

SLC25A35 belongs to the SLC25 family of mitochondrial carrier proteins (Haitina et al., 2006).By searching databases for SLC25 family members, Haitina et al. (2006) identified 2 splice variants of SLC25A35. The deduced protein contains 315 amino acids.Haitina et al. (2006) determined that the SLC25A35 gene contains 6 exons.By genomic sequence analysis, Haitina et al. (2006) mapped the SLC25A35 gene to chromosome 17. They mapped the mouse gene to chromosome 11.The solute carrier (SLC) group of membrane transport proteins include over 300 members organized into 47 families. The SLC gene nomenclature system was originally proposed by the Human Genome Organization (HUGO) and is the basis for the official HUGO names of the genes that encode these transporters.
