Slc25a51 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables NAD transmembrane transporter activity and organic anion transmembrane transporter activity. Involved in NAD biosynthetic process via the salvage pathway; NADP biosynthetic process; and nicotinamide riboside metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is active in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer and cortical plate. Orthologous to several human genes including SLC25A51 (solute carrier family 25 member 51). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Slc25a51 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
