About: Chloride potassium symporter

An Entity of Type: protein, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The chloride potassium symporter is a membrane transport protein of the solute carrier family 12 that is present in the S3-segment of the renal proximal tubule and in the neuron. It functions in renal chloride reabsorption to transport chloride across the basolateral membrane. Chloride potassium symporter can lower intracellular chloride concentrations below the electrochemical equilibrium potential.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • The chloride potassium symporter is a membrane transport protein of the solute carrier family 12 that is present in the S3-segment of the renal proximal tubule and in the neuron. It functions in renal chloride reabsorption to transport chloride across the basolateral membrane. Chloride potassium symporter can lower intracellular chloride concentrations below the electrochemical equilibrium potential. The concentrations of K+ and Cl− ions are high inside the cell due to the activities of Na+/K+ ATPase and NKCC cotransporter, respectively. Hence, their net driving force acting on the K/Cl cotransporter favours the exit of both K+ and Cl− from the cell. (en)
