Cl-formate exchanger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cl−-formate exchanger is a transport protein present in the kidney,[1] where it functions in the renal chloride reabsorption. It is also present in vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle.[2]
The true molecular nature of the protein is unknown.[3]
