Function |
Functions as an electroneutral and bidirectional ammonium transporter. May regulate transepithelial ammonia secretion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11062476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14761968, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15929723, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16477434}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Apical cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10852913, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12204676}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10852913, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12204676}. Note=Also detected at the basolateral membrane and in subapical vesicles. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in brain, testis, placenta, pancreas, esophagus and prostate. Expressed in squamous epithelial tissues (at protein level). According to PubMed:11062476, specifically expressed in kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10852913, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11062476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12204676}.
