Background:
SLC41A2 (solute carrier family 41, member 2), also known as SLC41A1-L, is a 573 amino acid, multi-pass membrane protein that belongs to the SLC41A transporter family that includes SLC41A1 and SLC41A3. Expressed in lymphocytes and localizing to the cell membrane, SLC41A2 contains twelve transmembrane domains, three myristoylation sequences, numerous possible phosphorylation sites and a putative N-glycosylation site. SLC41A2 is believed to function as a plasma-membrane magnesium transporter. Magnesium, a cofactor for ATP, plays a vital role in metabolic and biochemical processes. The transport of magnesium across membranes is essential for maintaining magnesium homeostasis and is fundamental to vertebrate metabolism.
Synonyms:
