Slc10a4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable bile acid:sodium symporter activity. Involved in regulation of neurotransmitter loading into synaptic vesicle. Acts upstream of or within adult behavior and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Is active in several cellular components, including dopaminergic synapse; serotonergic synapse; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Is expressed in genitourinary system and nervous system. Orthologous to human SLC10A4 (solute carrier family 10 member 4). [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 Slc10a4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
