Synonyms OCT6; CT2; Carnitine transporter 2; FLIPT2; Flipt 2; HEL-S-18; OKB1; Organic cation transporter OKB1; SLC22A16; Solute carrier family 22 member 16; dJ261K5.1; Organic cation/carnitine transporter 6
DT Family Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS)
Organic Cation Transporter (OCT) Family
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed at low levels in adulttissues and fetal brain, lung, liver and kidney. Expressed intestis and epididymis (at protein level). Expressed at lowerlevels in bone marrow and fetal liver. Expressed in hematopoieticcells, including CD34(+) leukocytes and leukemia cells. Abundantlyexpressed in ovarian cancer clear-cell adenocarcinoma. Expressedin endometrium (at protein level); highly expressed during thenormal secretory phase, but expression is significantly reduced inthe proliferative phase.
Function This sodium-ion dependent transporter mediates the uptake of carnitine. Also transports organic cations such as tetraethylammonium (TEA) and doxorubicin. Thought to mediate the L-carnitine secretion mechanism from testis epididymal epithelium into the lumen which is involved in the maturation of spermatozoa. The uptake of TEA is inhibited by various organic cations.
Disease(s) Nutritional deficiency [ICD-11: 5B7Z]
