Abstract excerpt
A heterozygous mutation (c.643C.A; p.Q215X) in the creatine transporter SLC16A12 has been proposed to cause a syndrome with juvenile cataracts, microcornea, and glucosuria in humans. To further explore the role of SLC16A12 in renal physiology and decipher the mechanism underlying the phenotype of humans with the SLC16A12 mutation, we studied Slc16a12 knockout (KO) rats. Slc16a12 KO rats had lower plasma levels...
