Slc4a11 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including active borate transmembrane transporter activity; monoatomic cation channel activity; and water transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including bicarbonate transport; cellular hypotonic response; and monoatomic cation transport. Located in basolateral plasma membrane and vesicle membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy; congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy of cornea; and corneal dystrophy-perceptive deafness syndrome. Orthologous to human SLC4A11 (solute carrier family 4 member 11). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
