SLC20A1 Antibody / PiT-1

Sodium-dependent phosphate transporter 1, also called Gibbon ape leukemia virus receptor 1 (GLVR-1) and Phosphate transporter 1 (PiT-1), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC20A1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a sodium-phosphate symporter that absorbs phosphate from interstitial fluid for use in cellular functions such as metabolism, signal transduction, and nucleic acid and lipid synthesis. The encoded protein is also a retroviral receptor, causing human cells to be susceptible to infection by gibbon ape leukemia virus, simian sarcoma-associated virus, feline leukemia virus subgroup B, and 10A1 murine leukemia virus.
