SLC26A3 - solute carrier family 26 member 3 Gene
Also Known as CLD; DRA
Species: Homo sapiens
About SLC26A3
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 252 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in colon (RPKM 709.1), duodenum (RPKM 299.0) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a Transmembrane Glycoprotein that transports chloride ions across the cell membrane in exchange for bicarbonate ions. It is localized to the mucosa of the lower intestinal tract, particularly to the apical membrane of columnar epithelium and some goblet cells. The protein is essential for intestinal chloride absorption, and mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital chloride diarrhea. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
