GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC12A2 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
BSC, BSC2, NKCC1, PPP1R141
Description
Solute carrier family 12 (sodium/potassium/chloride transporter), member 2 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene mediates sodium and chloride transport and reabsorption. The encoded protein is a membrane protein and is important in maintaining proper ionic balance and cell volume. This protein is phosphorylated in response to DNA damage. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
