Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: SLC26A6 is a multifunctional anion transporter with a critical physiological role in the transport of oxalate anions. Recognizing a genetic variant of SLC26A6 would advance our understanding of oxalate transport in the formation of calcium oxalate stones. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All nsSNPs (nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms) reported in human SLC26A6 were investigated using 4 in silico tools,...
