SLC6A8 - solute carrier family 6 member 8
Function
Creatine:sodium symporter which mediates the uptake of creatine (PubMed:7953292, PubMed:7945388, PubMed:9882430, PubMed:17465020, PubMed:22644605, PubMed:25861866). Plays an important role in supplying creatine to the brain via the blood-brain barrier (By similarity).
