SLC28A3 [ENSP00000365413]
Solute carrier family 28 member 3; Sodium-dependent, pyrimidine- and purine-selective. Involved in the homeostasis of endogenous nucleosides. Exhibits the transport characteristics of the nucleoside transport system cib or N3 subtype (N3/cib) (with marked transport of both thymidine and inosine). Employs a 2:1 sodium/nucleoside ratio. Also able to transport gemcitabine, 3'- azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT), ribavirin and 3-deazauridine. ; Belongs to the concentrative nucleoside transporter (CNT) (TC 2.A.41) family.
