solute carrier family 12 member 6; electroneutral K+-chloride cotransporter 3; K-Cl cotransporter 3 (SLC12A6, KCC3)
Function:
- mediates electroneutral K+-chloride cotransport
- may be activated by cell swelling
- may contribute to cell volume homeostasis in single cells
- activated by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)
- inhibited by DIOA, bumetanide & furosemide
- homomultimer & heteromultimer with other K-Cl cotransporters (putative)
Structure:
- N-glycosylated
- belongs to the SLC12A transporter family
Compartment: membrane
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2
Expression:
- highly expressed in heart, brain & kidney
- detected at lower levels in skeletal muscle, placenta, lung & pancreas
- detected in umbilical vein endothelial cells
- up-regulated by VEGF
- down-regulated by TNF
Pathology:
- defects in SLC12A6 are a cause of agenesis of the corpus callosum with peripheral neuropathy (ACCPN)
