SLC49A2

Protein name: FLVCR2 Aliases: MFSD7C, CCT, EPV, PVHH, FLVCRL14q Substrates: heme Transport type: unknown Tissue and cellular expression: liver, kidney, brain, lung, placenta, fetal liver, bone marrow Subcellular expression: located on the plasma membrane Disease: Fowler syndrome Locus: 14q24.3 Sequence ID: NP_001182212.1, NM_001195283.1 NP_060261.2, NM_017791.2 Gene ID: 55640 Splice variants: a variant transcript differs in the 5'-UTR and uses an alternate start codon, which should encode a shorter hypothetical protein

FLVC2_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: FLVCR2, C14orf58
Protein names and data: FLVC2_HUMAN, Full=Feline leukemia virus subgroup C receptor-related protein 2, Full=Calcium-chelate transporter;Short=CCT; Length: 526 a.a., Mass: 57241 Da,
fasta formatted sequence

Function: Acts as an importer of heme. Also acts as a transporter for a calcium-chelator complex, important for growth and calcium metabolism
Disease:
Cellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
Tissue specificity: Expressed in non-hematopoietic tissues, with relative abundant expression in brain, placenta, lung, liver and kidney. Also expressed in hematopoietic tissues (fetal liver, spleen, lymph node, thymus, leukocytes and bone marrow). Found in acidophil cells of the pituitary that secrete growth hormone and prolactin
