Abstract excerpt
After the discovery of abundant v-ATPase complexes in the osteoclast ruffled membrane it was obvious that in parallel a negative counter-ion needs to be transported across this membrane to allow for efficient transport of protons into the resorption lacuna. While different candidate proteins were discussed the osteopetrosis phenotype of Clcn7 knockout mice suggested that the chloride/proton-exchanger ClC-7 might...
