Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Involved in the sodium-dependent cotransport of myo- inositol (MI) with a Na(+):MI stoichiometry of 2:1. Exclusively responsible for apical MI transport and absorption in intestine. Also can transport D-chiro-inositol (DCI) but not L-fructose. Exhibits stereospecific cotransport of both D-glucose and D- xylose. May induce apoptosis through the TNF-alpha, PDCD1 pathway. May play a role in the regulation of MI concentration in serum, involving reabsorption in at least the proximal tubule of the kidney. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15172003}.
Subcellular Localization Membrane {ECO:0000250UniProtKB:Q28728}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250UniProtKB:Q28728}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Highest expression in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver and placenta. Weaker expression in brain, colon, spleen, lung and peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12039040}.
