This gene encodes a member of the organic-cation transporter family. It is located in a gene cluster with another member of the family, organic cation transporter like 3. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein which is thought to transport small molecules and since this protein is conserved among several species, it is suggested to have a fundamental role in mammalian systems. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]

Target development/druggability level:
TdarkThese are targets about which virtually nothing is known. They do not have known drug or small molecule activities that satisfy the activity thresholds detailed below AND satisfy two or more of the following criteria: 1) A PubMed text-mining score from Jensen Lab < 5; 2) <= 3 Gene RIFs; 3) <= 50 Antibodies available according to http://antibodypedia.com.
Tractability (small molecule):
Predicted TractableTargets with a predicted Ro5 druggable domain (druggable genome); Targets with a drugEBIlity score equal or greater than 0
Tractability (antibody):
Predicted Tractable - Medium to low confidenceTargets with GO cell component terms plasma membrane or secreted with low or unknown confidence; Targets with predicted signal peptide and transmembrane domains; GO cell component - medium confidence; Human Protein Atlas - high confidence
