Protein function (UniProt)

Sodium-dependent phosphate transporter 2

Sodium-phosphate symporter which preferentially transports the monovalent form of phosphate with a stoichiometry of two sodium ions per phosphate ion (PubMed:12205090, PubMed:15955065, PubMed:16790504, PubMed:17494632, PubMed:22327515, PubMed:28722801, PubMed:30704756). Plays a critical role in the determination of bone quality and strength by providing phosphate for bone mineralization (By similarity). Required to maintain normal cerebrospinal fluid phosphate levels (By similarity). Mediates phosphate-induced calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells (VCMCs) and can functionally compensate for loss of SLC20A1 in VCMCs (By similarity)
