Organic anion transporting polypeptide 3A1 (OATP3A1, encoded by the SLCO3A1 gene) is a prostaglandin, oligopeptide, and steroid/thyroid hormone transporter with wide tissue distribution, expressed, e.g., in the human brain and testis. Although the physiological importance of OATP3A1 has not yet been...
