RESOLUTE

MFSD5 (Hs)

Substrates

molybdate [3]

Comment

MFSD5/SLC61 is a putative 12TM cell-surface protein which appears to allow the accumulation of molybdate, and where the neural expression appears to respond to changes in the diet. It is expressed in cervix, stomach, nerve and skin [3]; ubiquitous but higher in skeletal muscle, olfactory bulb [1]; blood, cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum and spinal cord (mouse) [2].
