Biology:SLC25A24

Generic protein structure example

Solute carrier family 25 (mitochondrial carrier; phosphate carrier), member 24 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC25A24 gene.

Function

This gene encodes a carrier protein that transports ATP-Mg exchanging it for phosphate. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
