Description
Description
Solute carrier family 5 (SLC5) members are sodium:solute symporters. The SLC5 family is most widely known for the import of glucose across the plasma membrane, but members of this group have been shown to transport a variety of solutes such as sugars, vitamins and choline. (Adapted from FBrf0214274, PMID:32810346 and PMID:32767111).
