Gene details

HGNC symbol
SLC13A2 
Aliases
NaCT; NADC1; SDCT1; NaDC-1 
Common name
solute carrier family 13 member 2 
Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-coupled citrate transporter that is regulated by the chaperone activity of cyclophilin b. The encoded protein may play a role in the formation of kidney stones. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

Population
American
Study Design
The gene was sequenced in 13 subjects of age 90-99, 12 subjects between age 38-49 and 18 subjects age <23. The I550V polymorphism was genotyped in 2366 subjects and examined for its association with age.
Conclusions
An examination of 1338 female and 684 male white subjects demonstrated that the 1648 A/G (I550V) mutation was not associated with a greater longevity
Indentifier
I550V
