**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human SLC25A15 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 13q14.11 and is approximately 23 kb in length. This allele, which encodes mitochondrial ornithine transporter 1 protein, plays a role in the transport of cytoplasmic ornithine into the mitochondrial matrix. Mutations in the gene are associated with hyperornithinemia-hyperammonemia-homocitrullinemia syndrome.
