Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Sodium-dependent and purine-selective transporter. Exhibits the transport characteristics of the nucleoside transport system cif or N1 subtype (N1/cif) (selective for purine nucleosides and uridine). Plays a critical role in specific uptake and salvage of purine nucleosides in kidney and other tissues.
Subcellular Localization Membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Expressed in heart and skeletal muscle followed by liver, kidney, intestine, pancreas, placenta and brain. Weak expression in lung.
