Prostate cancer and most cases of breast, ovarian, endometrial, skin and testicular cancers were moderately stained. Remaining cancer tissues were generally weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC12A6 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
ACCPN, KCC3
Description
Solute carrier family 12 (potassium/chloride transporter), member 6 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene is a member of the K-Cl cotransporter (KCC) family. K-Cl cotransporters are integral membrane proteins that lower intracellular chloride concentrations below the electrochemical equilibrium potential. The proteins encoded by this gene are activated by cell swelling induced by hypotonic conditions. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Mutations in this gene are associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum with peripheral neuropathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
