Function
- Na+-independent sulfate anion transporter activity
- may cooperate with SLC26A2 to mediate DIDS-sensitive sulfate uptake into high endothelial venule endothelial cells (HEVEC)
Structure
- belongs to the SLC26A/sulP transporter (TC 2.A.53) family
- contains 1 STAS domain
Compartment
Expression
- detected in all tissues tested
- highest expression observed in brain, kidney, HEVEC & placenta
- lowest expression in pancreas, skeletal muscle, liver, lung & heart
