Abstract excerpt
The SLC12A6 gene encoding the K(+)-Cl(-) cotransporter KCC3 is expressed in multiple tissues, including kidney. Here, we report the molecular characterization of several NH(2)-terminal isoforms of human and mouse KCC3, along with intrarenal localization and functional characterization in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Two major isoforms, KCC3a and KCC3b, are generated by transcriptional initiation 5' of two distinct...
