|
| Function |
May act as a transporter of organic cations based on a proton efflux antiport mechanism. May play a role in the transport of chloroquine and quinidine-related compounds in kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9744804}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Apical cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Note=Localized at the apical membrane surface of renal proximal tubules. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9744804}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed at high levels in adult and fetal kidney and liver, and adult colon. Expressed in fetal renal proximal tubules (at protein level). Expressed at lower levels in heart, brain and lung. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9499412, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9520460, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9570947, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9744804}.
