Human SLC26A1 Gene Variants: A Pilot Study by Paul A. Dawson, Pearl Sim, David W. Mudge, David Cowley

“…SLC26A1 encodes the sulfate anion transporter 1 (SAT1) protein, and its loss in mice leads to hyperoxaluria and calcium oxalate renal stones. To investigate the possible involvement of SAT1 in human urolithiasis, we screened the SLC26A1 gene in a cohort of 13 individuals with recurrent calcium oxalate urolithiasis, which is the commonest type. …”
