Solute carrier family 61 member 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC61A1 gene (previously MFSD4).^[5] This protein is responsible for molybdenum uptake instead of the cell.^[5] It has previously been described as an atypical SLC, and it is expressed in neuronal plasma membrane.^[6] It is a plausible Solute carrier transporter.^[7] It transports molybdate anions,^[8] and it interacts with GLP-1R.^[9] In humans, it is encoded by the gene SLC61A1.^[10]
