Cl-formate exchanger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cl-formate exchanger is a transport protein present in the kidney[1], where it functions in the renal chloride reabsorption. It is also present in vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle [2].
The true molecular nature of the protein is unknown[3].
