Summary

SLC29A4 (solute carrier family 29 member 4, HGNC:23097) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 7p22.1, encoding Equilibrative nucleoside transporter 4 (Q7RTT9). Electrogenic voltage-dependent transporter that mediates the transport of a variety of endogenous bioactive amines, cationic xenobiotics and drugs.

This gene encodes a member of the SLC29A/ENT transporter protein family. The encoded membrane protein catalyzes the reuptake of monoamines into presynaptic neurons, thus determining the intensity and duration of monoamine neural signaling. It has been shown to transport several compounds, including serotonin, dopamine, and the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Electrogenic voltage-dependent transporter that mediates the transport of a variety of endogenous bioactive amines, cationic xenobiotics and drugs. Utilizes the physiologic inside-negative membrane potential as a driving force to facilitate cellular uptake of organic cations. Functions as a Na(+)- and Cl(-)-independent bidirectional transporter. Substrate transport is pH-dependent and enhanced under acidic condition, which is most likely the result of allosteric changes in the transporter structure. Implicated in monoamine neurotransmitters uptake such as serotonin, dopamine, adrenaline/epinephrine, noradrenaline/norepinephrine, histamine and tyramine, thereby supporting a role in homeostatic regulation of aminergic neurotransmission in the central nervous system. Also responsible for the uptake of bioactive amines and drugs through the blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier, from the CSF into choroid plexus epithelial cells, thereby playing a significant role in the clearance of cationic neurotoxins, xenobiotics and metabolic waste in the brain. Involved in bidirectional transport of the purine nucleoside adenosine and plays a role in the regulation of extracellular adenosine concentrations in cardiac tissues, in particular during ischemia. May be involved in organic cation uptake from the tubular lumen into renal tubular cells, thereby contributing to organic cation reabsorption in the kidney. Also transports guanidine.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Apical cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Mainly expressed in brain and skeletal muscle. In brain, expressed in cerebellum, cerebral cortex, medulla oblongata, occipital pole, frontal and temporal lobes putamen, spinal cord, substancia nigra, hippocampus, caudate nucleus, nucleus accumbens, pons and choroid plexus. Expressed in heart, in both cardiomyocytes and vascular endothelial cells. Also expressed in adrenal gland, small intestine, pancreas, kidney, liver, bone marrow, lymph node. Located in endometrial stroma, where the expression is high in the proliferative phase, decreases during the secretory phase, and is no longer detectable in the menstrual phase.

Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated.

Activity regulation. Activated at acidic pH.

Domain organisation. Glu-206 is essential for cation selectivity and may function as the charge sensor for cationic substrates.

Miscellaneous. Does not interact with nucleosides, nucleobases or nucleotides, other than a moderate activity for adenosine. Mediates the uptake of neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP(+)).

Similarity. Belongs to the SLC29A/ENT transporter (TC 2.A.57) family.
