Post Translational Modifications | N-glycosylated. |
Function | Antiporter that mediates the exchange of sulfate and oxalate against chloride ions across a membrane. Stimulates anion transport activity of CFTR. May cooperate with CFTR in the regulation of chloride and bicarbonate ions fluxes required for activation of the ADCY10/PKA pathway during sperm motility and sperm capacitation. May play a role in sperm tail differentiation and motility and hence male fertility. |
