|
| Function |
Isoform 1, but not isoform 3, exhibits some choline transporter activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10677542, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20665236}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Present in supporting cells of the inner ear (at protein level). Only isoform 3 is expressed in inner ear vestibular tissue. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14973250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20665236}.
