Sodium-Coupled Vitamin C Transporters

Membrane transport proteins that actively co-transport ASCORBIC ACID and sodium ions across the CELL MEMBRANE. Dietary absorption of VITAMIN C is highly dependent upon this class of transporters and a subset of SODIUM GLUCOSE TRANSPORTERS which transport the oxidized form of vitamin C, DEHYDROASCORBIC ACID.

Also Known As:

SLC23A1 Transporter; SLC23A2 Transporter; SVCT 1, Ascorbic Acid Transporter; SVCT 2, Ascorbic Acid Transporter; Sodium-Dependent Vitamin C Transporter; Sodium-Dependent Vitamin C Transporter 1; Sodium-Dependent Vitamin C Transporter 2; Solute Carrier Family 23 (Nucleobase Transporters), Member 1; Solute Carrier Family 23 (Nucleobase Transporters), Member 2; Sodium Coupled Vitamin C Transporters; Sodium Dependent Vitamin C Transporter; Sodium Dependent Vitamin C Transporter 1; Sodium Dependent Vitamin C Transporter 2; Transporter, SLC23A1; Transporter, SLC23A2
