SLC6A20
solute carrier family 6 member 20 | IMINO, SIT1, XT3, Xtrp3

Transport of small hydrophilic substances across cell membranes is mediated by substrate-specific transporter proteins which have been classified into several families of related genes. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sodium:neurotransmitter symporter (SNF) family and functions as a proline transporter expressed in kidney and small intestine. Mutations in this gene are associated with Hyperglycinuria and Iminoglycinuria. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

SLC6A20 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating SLC6A20 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for SLC6A20. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = SLC6A20 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to SLC6A20

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of SLC6A20, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
