NCIt synonyms : Receptor for Amphotropic Murine Retrovirus; Pit2; SLC20A2; Gibbon Ape Leukemia Virus Receptor 2; hPit2; PiT-2; Solute Carrier Family 20 Member 2; Phosphate Transporter 2; GLVR-2; Gibbon Ape Leukemia Retrovirus Receptor 2;
NCIt definition : Sodium-dependent phosphate transporter 2 (652 aa, 70 kDa) is encoded by the human
SLC20A2 gene. This protein is involved in gamma-retroviral receptor activity and cellular
uptake of phosphate.;
NCIt note : Sodium-dependent phosphate transporter 2 is a retroviral receptor. When expressed
in human cells, this receptor confers susceptibility to infection by amphotropic murine
leukemia virus (A-MuLV), 10A1 murine leukemia virus (10A1 MLV) and some members of
feline leukemia virus subgroup B (FeLV-B). (UniProt);
