Background Information
SLC51A also known as OSTA, belongs to the OST-alpha family. SLC51A is an essential component of the Ost-alpha/Ost-beta complex, a heterodimer that acts as the intestinal basolateral transporter responsible for bile acid export from enterocytes into portal blood (PubMed:16317684). SLC51A is located in basolateral plasma membrane and transported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane upon interacting with SLC51B. SLC51A is expressed with a high expression in kidney and intestine (PMID: 15563450). Mutations in SLC51A are associated with Cholestasis progressive familial intrahepatic 6(PMID: 31863603).
