Slc22a18 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in xenobiotic detoxification by transmembrane export across the plasma membrane. Predicted to act upstream of or within monoatomic anion transport. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane and cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nuclear envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including liver; metanephros; nervous system; reproductive system; and yolk sac. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer; esophagus adenocarcinoma; and lung cancer. Orthologous to human SLC22A18 (solute carrier family 22 member 18).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Slc22a18 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
