Score is the Open Targets composite evidence score (0-1). Higher = stronger gene-disease association.

Protein function (UniProt)

Chloride anion exchanger

Mediates chloride-bicarbonate exchange with a chloride bicarbonate stoichiometry of 2:1 in the intestinal epithelia (PubMed:16606687, PubMed:19321737, PubMed:22159084, PubMed:22627094). Plays a role in the chloride and bicarbonate homeostasis during sperm epididymal maturation and capacitation (By similarity)
