Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in transmembrane transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 115. Is an ortholog of human SPNS1 (SPNS lysolipid transporter 1, lysophospholipid); SPNS2 (SPNS lysolipid transporter 2, sphingosine-1-phosphate); and SPNS3 (SPNS lysolipid transporter 3, sphingosine-1-phosphate (putative)).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
