Background Information
SLC4A7 also known as NBCn1, NBC3, NBC2, is an electroneutral Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) cotransporter (PMID: 14736710). SLC4A7 mediates the coupled movement of sodium and bicarbonate ions across the plasma membrane. SLC4A7 plays a key role in macrophage acidification, mediating bicarbonate import into the cytoplasm which is crucial for net acid extrusion and maintenance of cytoplasmic pH during phagocytosis (PubMed:29779931). SLC4A7 is expressed in testis, spleen, and retina. SLC4A7 may be a major regulator of extracellular pH of retina where light stimulation produces an extracellular alkalization and may contribute as a solute transporter to the prevention of retinal detachment(PMID: 9610397).
