Summary

SLC5A10 (solute carrier family 5 member 10, HGNC:23155) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17p11.2, encoding Sodium/mannose cotransporter SLC5A10 (A0PJK1). Electrogenic Na+-coupled sugar symporter that actively transports D-mannose or D-fructose at the plasma membrane, with a Na+ to sugar coupling ratio of 1:1.

This gene is a member of the sodium/glucose transporter family. Members of this family are sodium-dependent transporters and can be divided into two subfamilies based on sequence homology, one that co-transports sugars and the second that transports molecules such as ascorbate, choline, iodide, lipoate, monocaroboxylates, and pantothenate. The protein encoded by this gene has the highest affinity for mannose and has been reported to be most highly expressed in the kidney. This protein may function as a kidney-specific, sodium-dependent mannose and fructose co-transporter. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. Electrogenic Na+-coupled sugar symporter that actively transports D-mannose or D-fructose at the plasma membrane, with a Na+ to sugar coupling ratio of 1:1. Transporter activity is driven by a transmembrane Na+ electrochemical gradient set by the Na+/K+ pump. Exclusively recognizes sugar substrates having a pyranose ring with an axial hydroxyl group on carbon 2. Has likely evolved to enable renal reabsorption of D-mannose, an important constituent of oligosaccharide chains of glycoproteins. Contributes to dietary D-fructose reabsorption from glomerular filtrate across the brush border of the kidney. Appears to have no transporter activity.

Subcellular location. Apical cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Predominantly expressed at high levels in kidney. Very low expression is detected in testes. Expressed in kidney. The most abundant isoform expressed in kidney. Expressed in kidney. Expressed in kidney.

Activity regulation. Inhibited by phlorizin.

Similarity. Belongs to the sodium:solute symporter (SSF) (TC 2.A.21) family.
