Protein
H(+)/Cl(-) exchange transporter 3
Organism
Oryctolagus cuniculus
Function
Mediates the exchange of chloride ions against protons. Functions as antiporter and contributes to the acidification of the endosome and synaptic vesicle lumen, and may thereby affect vesicle trafficking and exocytosis. May play an important role in neuronal cell function through regulation of membrane excitability by protein kinase C. It could help neuronal cells to establish short-term memory (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the chloride channel (TC 2.A.49) family. ClC-3/CLCN3 subfamily.
