NCIt definition : Human SLC26A2 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 5q32 and is approximately
33 kb in length. This allele, which encodes sulfate transporter protein, plays a role
in anion exchange and cartilage development. Mutations in the gene are associated
with diastrophic dysplasia.;
