| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated at Thr-929 and Thr-1030 by OXSR1/OSR1 and STK39/SPAK downstream of WNK kinases (WNK1, WNK2, WNK3 or WNK4), inhibiting the potassium-chloride cotransport activity. |
| Function | Mediates electroneutral potassium-chloride cotransport in mature neurons and is required for neuronal Cl(-) homeostasis. As major extruder of intracellular chloride, it establishes the low neuronal Cl(-) levels required for chloride influx after binding of GABA-A and glycine to their receptors, with subsequent hyperpolarization and neuronal inhibition. Involved in the regulation of dendritic spine formation and maturation. |
