Rabbit anti-Human SLC4A4 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9Y6R1

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SLC4A4

Target Full Name

Electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1

Target Function

Electrogenic sodium/bicarbonate cotransporter with a Na(+):HCO3(-) stoichiometry varying from 1:2 to 1:3. May regulate bicarbonate influx/efflux at the basolateral membrane of cells and regulate intracellular pH.; May have a higher activity than isoform 1.

Target Involvement

Renal tubular acidosis, proximal, with ocular abnormalities and mental retardation (pRTA-OA)

Target Subcellular Location

Basolateral cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

Anion exchanger (TC 2.A.31) family

Target Tissue Specificity

Isoform 1 is expressed in pancreas and to a lower extent in heart, skeletal muscle, liver, parotid salivary glands, prostate, colon, stomach, thyroid, brain and spinal chord. Corneal endothelium cells express only isoform 1 (at protein level). Isoform 2 i

Target Background

This gene encodes a sodium bicarbonate cotransporter (NBC) involved in the regulation of bicarbonate secretion and absorption and intracellular pH. Mutations in this gene are associated with proximal renal tubular acidosis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
