SLC4A1/AE1 Polyclonal Antibody
Code No: BMP012
Background:
SLC4A1/AE1/Band3/CD233, a member of the anion exchanger family, is the major glycoprotein of the erythrocyte membrane. SLC4A1 has an important role for the high rate exchange of chloride by bicarbonate ion during carbon dioxide transport by erythrocytes. Defective mutations of SLC4A1 gene have been reported to cause either the erythroid disorders including spherocytic hemolytic anaemia or ovalocytosis, or distal renal tubular acidosis. One SLC4A1 null human is also known with very severe anemia and nephrocalcinosis.
