Positive relationship network of SLC17A6 in MK4MDD

Network loading ...

Note:
1. The different color of the nodes denotes the level of the nodes.

Genetic/Epigenetic Locus	Protein and Other Molecule	Cell and Molecular Pathway	Neural System	Cognition and Behavior	Symptoms and Signs	Environment	MDD

2. Besides the component related relationships from literature, gene mapped protein and protein mapped gene are also shown in the network. If the mapped gene or protein is not from literature, square node would be used instead of Circle node. Accordingly, the relationship is marked with dot line.
2. User can drag the nodes to rearrange the layout of the network. Click the node will enter the report page of the node. Right-click will show also the menus to link to the report page of the node and remove the node and related edges. Hover the node will show the level of the node and hover the edge will show the evidence/description of the edge.
3. The network is generated using Cytoscape Web

REACT_19118	slc mediated_transmembrane_transport	Proteins with transporting functions can be roughly classifi...... Proteins with transporting functions can be roughly classified into 3 categories: ATP-powered pumps, ion channels, and transporters. Pumps utilize the energy released by ATP hydrolysis to power the movement of the substrates across the membrane, against their electrochemical gradient. Channels at the open state can transfer the substrates. At least 20-25% amino-acid sequence identity is shared by members belonging to the same SLC family. No homology is shared between different SLC families. While the HUGO nomenclature system by definition only includes human genes, the nomenclature system has been informally extended to include rodent species through the use of lower cases letters (e.g., Slc1a1 denotes the rodent ortholog of the human SLC1A1 gene). And it's worthwhile to mention that pumps, channels and aquporins are not included in SLC superfamily. More...

Teleologically, one might argue that inorganic cation and anion transport would be evolutionarily among the oldest transport functions. Eight families comprise the group that transports exclusively inorganic cations and anions across membranes : SLC4 plays a pivotal role in mediating Na+- and/or Cl-dependent transport of basic anions [e.g. HCO3, ; SLC8 is a group of Na+/Ca2+ exchangers ; SLC24 is a group of Na+/Ca2+ or Na+/K+ exchangers ; SLC9 comprises Na+/H+ exchanger proteins involved in the electroneutral exchange of sodium ion and protons ; SLC12 functions as Na+, K+ and Cl ion electroneutral symporters ; SLC26 is the trans-epithelial multifunctional anion. SLC34 is an important Type II Na+/; SLC20 was originally identified as a viral receptor, and functions as a Type III Na+/. Eight SLC gene families are involved in the transport of amino acids and oligopeptides. More...
