Slc25a22 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable L-aspartate transmembrane transporter activity; L-glutamate transmembrane transporter activity; and amino acid:proton symporter activity. Predicted to be involved in dicarboxylic acid transport; malate-aspartate shuttle; and regulation of insulin secretion. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in alimentary system; eye; liver; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 3. Orthologous to human SLC25A22 (solute carrier family 25 member 22). [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 Slc25a22 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
