Other Information

**Key Characteristics** The SLC26A2 gene is a member of the solute carrier family 26 (SLC26) and is primarily expressed in the apical plasma membrane of various epithelial cells. The SLC26A2 protein is a multifunctional anion exchanger that can transport a wide range of anions, including bicarbonate, chloride, sulfate, and inorganic cations. The protein has been shown to utilize secondary active transport mechanisms, which rely on the concentration gradient of a co-transported molecule to drive the transport of the anion. **Pathways and Functions** The SLC26A2 protein is involved in multiple cellular pathways, including: 1. **Bicarbonate Transport**: The SLC26A2 protein plays a crucial role in the regulation of bicarbonate transport in various tissues, including the colon and placenta. 2. **Chloride Transport**: The protein is also involved in chloride transport, which is essential for maintaining proper ion balance and fluid homeostasis in the body. 3. **Sulfate Transport**: The SLC26A2 protein is a sulfate transporter that is involved in the transport of sulfate across cell membranes. 4. **Glycosaminoglycan Metabolism**: The protein is also implicated in the metabolism of glycosaminoglycans, which are important components of the extracellular matrix. 5. **Oxalate Transport**: The SLC26A2 protein has been shown to transport oxalate, a compound that is involved in the development of kidney stones. **Clinical Significance** Mutations in the SLC26A2 gene have been associated with several diseases, including: 1. **Chondrodysplasias**: Mutations in the SLC26A2 gene have been linked to various forms of chondrodysplasias, a group of disorders characterized by abnormal bone development. 2. **Disorders of Glycosylation**: The SLC26A2 protein is also involved in glycosylation, a process that is essential for the proper functioning of proteins. Mutations in the gene have been associated with disorders of glycosylation, including congenital disorders of glycosylation. 3. **Metabolic Disorders**: The SLC26A2 protein is also involved in the regulation of metabolism, particularly in the transport of sulfate and oxalate. Mutations in the gene have been associated with metabolic disorders, including kidney stone disease. In conclusion, the SLC26A2 gene is a multifunctional anion exchanger that plays a crucial role in various cellular pathways, including bicarbonate transport, chloride transport, and sulfate transport. Mutations in this gene have been associated with several diseases, including chondrodysplasias, disorders of glycosylation, and metabolic disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the implications of this gene in human health and disease.
