|
| Function |
Mediates electroneutral potassium-chloride cotransport. May be activated by cell swelling. May contribute to cell volume homeostasis in single cells.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Basolateral cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in heart, brain and kidney. Detected at lower levels in skeletal muscle, placenta, lung and pancreas. Detected in umbilical vein endothelial cells. Isoform 2 is more abundant in kidney. Isoform 5 is testis specific. Expressed in the proximal tubule of the kidney (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16048901}.
