Solute carrier family 12 member 3

UniProt P55017 Organism Homo sapiens Gene NCC, SLC12A3, TSC

Also known as: NCC, SLC12A3, TSC

Function

Electroneutral sodium and chloride ion cotransporter, which acts as a key mediator of sodium and chloride reabsorption in kidney distal convoluted tubules. Also acts as a receptor for the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL18, thereby contributing to IL18-induced cytokine production, including IFNG, IL6, IL18 and CCL2 (By similarity). May act either independently of IL18R1, or in a complex with IL18R1 (By similarity).
