SLC22A5 is a

organic cation transporters in the liver, kidney, intestine, and other organs are critical for the elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins.[5] Mutations in the SLC22A5 gene cause systemic primary carnitine deficiency, which can lead to heart failure.[6]

Structure

The SLC22A5 gene, containing 10 exons,

transmembrane domains, with a long extracellular loop of 107 amino acids between the first two transmembrane domains and an intracellular loop between the fourth and fifth transmembrane domains. This long extracellular loop has three potential sites for N-glycosylation, and the intracellular loop has an ATP/GTP binding motif. In putative intracellular domains, there are five potential sites for protein-kinase C-dependent phosphorylation and one for protein-kinase A-dependent phosphorylation.[10]

Function

The SLC22A5 gene codes for a plasma

organic cation transporter and a sodium-dependent high affinity carnitine transporter.[5] The encoded protein is involved in the active cellular uptake of carnitine, transporting one sodium ion with one molecule of carnitine. Organic cations transported by this protein include tetraethylammonium (TEA) without involvement of sodium. The relative uptake activity ratio of carnitine to TEA is 11.3.[11]

Clinical Significance

The main

arrhythmias, muscle weakness, and heart failure in early childhood.[6][12][13] Patients may be asymptomatic, with about 70% of asymptomatic patients having a missense mutation or in-frame deletion; nonsense mutation frequency is increased in symptomatic patients.[14] The symptoms and outcome of the disease can be drastically improved by replacement therapy with L-carnitine.[15] The estimated incidence of primary carnitine deficiency in newborns is about 1 in 40,000.[16]

Interactions

SLC22A5 interacts with PDZK1.[11]
