Anti-SLC22A3 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated

Solute carrier family 22 (extraneuronal monoamine transporter), member 3, also known as SLC22A3 or OCT3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC22A3 gene. This gene is mapped to 6q25.3. Polyspecific organic cation transporters in the liver, kidney, intestine, and other organs are critical for elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins. This gene mediates potential-dependent transport of a variety of organic cations. It may play a significant role in the disposition of cationic neurotoxins and neurotransmitters in the brain.

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human SLC22A3, which shares 76.5% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat SLC22A3.
