| Tissue Specificity | Predominantly expressed in lung at the luminal side of the bronchiolar and alveolar epithelium of lung. To a lower extent, also expressed in pancreas and prostate. |
| Function | Ion transporter that can act both as an ion channel and anion exchanger. Mainly acts as a chloride channel, which mediate uncoupled chloride anion transport in an alternate-access mechanism where a saturable binding site is alternately exposed to either one or the other side of the membrane. Also acts as a DIDS- and thiosulfate- sensitive anion exchanger the exchange of chloride for bicarbonate ions across the cell membrane. |
