SLC4A3

Anion exchange protein 3

Anion exchange protein 3

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens


Anion exchange protein 3 is a membrane transport protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC4A3 gene.[5][6] AE3 is functionally similar to the Band 3 Cl/HCO3 exchange protein but it is expressed primarily in brain neurons and in the heart. Like AE2 its activity is sensitive to pH.[7][8] AE3 mutations have been linked to seizures.[9][10]
