Disease

S19A1_HUMAN Methotrexate dose selection. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

S19A1_HUMAN Antiporter that mediates the import of reduced folates or a subset of cyclic dinucleotides, driven by the export of organic anions (PubMed:7826387, PubMed:9041240, PubMed:10787414, PubMed:15337749, PubMed:16115875, PubMed:22554803, PubMed:31511694, PubMed:31126740, PubMed:32276275). Mechanistically, acts as a secondary active transporter, which exports intracellular organic anions down their concentration gradients to facilitate the uptake of its substrates (PubMed:22554803, PubMed:31511694, PubMed:31126740). Has high affinity for N5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the predominant circulating form of folate (PubMed:10787414, PubMed:14609557, PubMed:22554803). Also able to mediate the import of antifolate drug methotrexate (PubMed:7615551, PubMed:7641195, PubMed:9767079, PubMed:22554803). Also acts as an importer of immunoreactive cyclic dinucleotides, such as cyclic GMP-AMP (2'-3'-cGAMP), an immune messenger produced in response to DNA virus in the cytosol, and its linkage isomer 3'-3'-cGAMP, thus playing a role in triggering larger immune responses (PubMed:31511694, PubMed:31126740). 5-amino-4-imidazolecarboxamide riboside (AICAR), when phosphorylated to AICAR monophosphate, can serve as an organic anion for antiporter activity (PubMed:22554803).^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13]}
