Slc41a1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables inorganic cation transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in cellular response to magnesium ion and magnesium ion transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in basolateral plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; mesenteric adipose tissue; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephronophthisis. Orthologous to human SLC41A1 (solute carrier family 41 member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Slc41a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- sodium ion transporter
- antiporter
- inorganic uptake permease
- protein binding
- magnesium ion transporter
- metal ion transporter
- transporter
