SLC7A9
Name
solute carrier family 7 (amino acid transporter light chain, bo,+ system), member 9
Synonyms
CSNU3, BAT1 [provided by Ensembl, GRCh37]
Location
chr19:33,321,415-33,360,672 (reverse strand)
Summary
This gene encodes a protein that belongs to a family of light subunits of amino acid transporters. This protein plays a role in the high-affinity and sodium-independent transport of cystine and neutral and dibasic amino acids, and appears to function in the reabsorption of cystine in the kidney tubule. Mutations in this gene cause non-type I cystinuria, a disease that leads to cystine stones in the urinary system due to impaired transport of cystine and dibasic amino acids. Alternate transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]

Differential expression
Differential gene expression across cell types as calculated by the DESeq package (version 1.6.3). Cells are sorted based on median gene expression from highest to lowest. Squares in the upper diagonal matrix indicate results from pair-wise comparisons of two cell types on the x- and y-axis. Changing the tab on top will switch from log2 fold change to P values, and mousing over the squares will display those values. Adjusting the threshold slider will change the color of the square to indicate if it is above or below the threshold.

DICE QTLs
Discovery of genetic variants directly associated with the gene expression level (SNP located within +/- 1 Mb of the TSS); 'expression quantitative trait loci' (eQTL). Hover over the table headers for a description of several of the fields.

RNA expression levels (in reads per million) averaged across samples are shown for each cell type, along with the Gencode annotations. Controls allow you to zoom in/out, move to a different region of the genome, change scales, or add/remove tracks. Future versions will also display SNPs/eQTLs as separate tracks.
