Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** SLC34A2 is a member of the solute carrier family 34, which is characterized by its ability to transport inorganic cations, anions, and amino acids/oligopeptides across cell membranes. The NPT2B protein, encoded by SLC34A2, is a type II sodium-potassium-pi cotransporter that is highly expressed in epithelial cells of the lower respiratory tract, lung, and other tissues. The protein has a high affinity for phosphate ions and is capable of transporting phosphate into cells in exchange for sodium ions. **Pathways and Functions:** The SLC34A2 gene is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Intracellular Phosphate Ion Homeostasis:** The NPT2B protein plays a critical role in maintaining intracellular phosphate ion homeostasis by transporting phosphate ions into cells in exchange for sodium ions. 2. **Surfactant Metabolism:** SLC34A2 is involved in the regulation of surfactant metabolism, which is essential for maintaining lung function and preventing respiratory distress syndrome. 3. **Phosphate Ion Transport:** The NPT2B protein is capable of transporting phosphate ions across cell membranes, which is essential for various cellular processes, including DNA synthesis and cell growth. 4. **Sodium-Coupled Phosphate Cotransport:** SLC34A2 is a type II sodium-potassium-pi cotransporter, which means that it uses sodium ions to transport phosphate ions into cells. **Clinical Significance:** Mutations in SLC34A2 have been associated with various diseases, including: 1. **Palm:** A rare disorder characterized by the formation of calcium phosphate stones in the hands and feet. 2. **Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis (PAM):** A rare disorder characterized by the formation of calcium phosphate stones in the lungs. 3. **Surfactant Metabolic Disorders:** SLC34A2 mutations have been associated with surfactant metabolic disorders, which can lead to respiratory distress syndrome and other lung-related complications. In conclusion, the SLC34A2 gene plays a critical role in regulating phosphate homeostasis and surfactant metabolism. Mutations in this gene can lead to various diseases, highlighting the importance of this gene in maintaining human health. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms underlying SLC34A2-mediated diseases and to develop effective therapeutic strategies for these disorders.
