Essentially all cancers displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining with a granular pattern in a large subset of cases. Remaining cancer cells were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC4A5 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
NBC4
Description
Solute carrier family 4 (sodium bicarbonate cotransporter), member 5 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the sodium bicarbonate cotransporter (NBC) family, part of the bicarbonate transporter superfamily. Sodium bicarbonate cotransporters are involved in intracellular pH regulation and electroneural or electrogenic sodium bicarbonate transport. This protein is thought to be an integral membrane protein. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
