    FAMILY phosphatase transporter family, PiT family
    CATEGORY unknown/unspecified , receptor , transport channel
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • transporter capable of Na(+)-independent P(i) transport at acidic pH
  • modify its oligomerization independently of Pi (inorganic phosphate) uptake in response to changes in the extracellular Pi concentration, suggesting a possible role in Pi sensing
  • SLC20A2 and XPR1 are transporters with phosphate uptake and efflux functions, respectively
  • SLC20A2-XPR1 interplay that depends on inositol polyphosphate (IP) such as PP-IPs and controls cellular phosphate homeostasis via the efflux route, and alteration of this interplay likely contributes to primary familial brain calcification (PFBC)
