| HGNC Family | Solute carriers (SLC) |
| Name | solute carrier family 5 (sodium/sugar cotransporter), member 10 |
| Description | This gene is a member of the sodium/glucose transporter family. Members of this family are sodium-dependent transporters and can be divided into two subfamilies based on sequence homology, one that co-transports sugars and the second that transports molecules such as ascorbate, choline, iodide, lipoate, monocaroboxylates, and pantothenate. The protein encoded by this gene has the highest affinity for mannose and has been reported to be most highly expressed in the kidney. This protein may function as a kidney-specific, sodium-dependent mannose and fructose co-transporter. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nRecent studies have revealed that SLC5A10, also known as SGLT5, is a kidney‐specific sodium‐dependent cotransporter that plays a key role in carbohydrate reabsorption. In functional analyses, the most abundant splice variant of SLC5A10 efficiently mediates sodium‐dependent uptake of sugars—with a pronounced transport capacity for mannose and fructose—and is inhibited by various monosaccharides and even by certain SGLT2 inhibitors at micromolar potencies. These findings underscore its primary role in the renal reabsorption of specific monosaccharides."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn addition to its role in sugar handling, genetic and biochemical studies have identified SLC5A10 as a critical transporter of 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG), a polyol used as an emerging biomarker for glycemic control. Rare, protein-altering variants in SLC5A10 are associated with markedly lower circulating 1,5-AG levels, suggesting that altered transporter function directly impacts its reabsorption in the kidney. This aspect of SLC5A10 physiology has important clinical implications—not only for the monitoring of glycemic status, but also in light of evidence that reduced 1,5-AG levels can ameliorate neutropenia in conditions such as glycogen storage disease type 1b and severe congenital neutropenia type 4."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nMoreover, investigations into genetic variation within the SLC5A10 locus have uncovered intronic variants that, while not affecting SLC5A10 expression itself, are predicted to modulate the expression of the nearby DRG2 gene.
