Solute carrier family 10 member 4

Introduction

Solute carrier family 10 member 4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC10A4 gene.[1] In mice, it appears to promote acidification of synaptic vesicles containing monoamines, enhancing their uptake, and is co-expressed with VMAT2 and VAChT.[2]
