SLC5A4

SLC5A4

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

The low affinity sodium-glucose cotransporter also known as the sodium/glucose cotransporter 3 (SGLT3) or solute carrier family 5 member 4 (SLC5A4) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC5A4 gene.[5][6][7] It functions as a sugar sensor.
