Gene name

SLC15A1 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

HPECT1, HPEPT1, PEPT1

Description

Solute carrier family 15 (oligopeptide transporter), member 1 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene encodes an intestinal hydrogen peptide cotransporter that is a member of the solute carrier family 15. The encoded protein is localized to the brush border membrane of the intestinal epithelium and mediates the uptake of di- and tripeptides from the lumen into the enterocytes. This protein plays an important role in the uptake and digestion of dietary proteins. This protein also facilitates the absorption of numerous peptidomimetic drugs. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]
