Symbol: SLC6A4 Name: solute carrier family 6 (neurotransmitter transporter, serotonin), member 4 Entrez gene ID: 6532 Ensembl gene ID: ENSG00000108576 Species: Human (Taxid: 9606) Observation: Two alleles, 44-bp insertion (l allele) or deletion (s allele) in the promoter region of SLC6A4, were examined in 265 Japanese centenarians and control subjects. The frequency of the l/l genotype and the l allele was significantly greater in centenarians than in younger control subjects, particularly women [16095668].SLC6A4 was found to be associated with longevity [22985157].
