Function
Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Cell membrane
Tissue Specificity: Highly expressed in colon, kidney, prostate, intestine and activated lymphocytes. Expressed at much higher levels in the renal cell cancers than in surrounding normal kidney tissue. Moderately expressed in pancreas, ovary and testis. Expressed in sweat glands and bronchiolar epithelium
Disease Association: Hyperchlorhidrosis, isolated (HYCHL) : An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by excessive sweating and increased sweat chloride levels. Affected individuals suffer from episodes of hyponatremic dehydration and report increased amounts of visible salt precipitates in sweat. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
