Description
Description
The solute carrier family 4 (SLC4) members are bicarbonate transmembrane transporters. SLC4 members are co-transporters that exchange Na+ or Cl- for HCO3- across the plasma membrane. They are primarily involved in acid-base homeostasis. (Adapted from FBrf0130048 and PMID:23506864).
