Target data Epithelial ion channel that plays an important role in the regulation of epithelial ion and water transport and fluid homeostasis (PubMed : 26823428). Mediates the transport of chloride ions across the cell membrane (PubMed : 10792060, PubMed : 11524016, PubMed : 11707463, PubMed : 12519745, PubMed : 12529365, PubMed : 12588899, PubMed : 12727866, PubMed : 15010471, PubMed : 17036051, PubMed : 1712898, PubMed : 17182731, PubMed : 19398555, PubMed : 19621064, PubMed : 22178883, PubMed : 25330774, PubMed : 26846474, PubMed : 28087700, PubMed : 8910473, PubMed : 9804160). Possesses an intrinsic ATPase activity and utilizes ATP to gate its channel; the passive flow of anions through the channel is gated by cycles of ATP binding and hydrolysis by the ATP-binding domains (PubMed : 11524016, PubMed : 15284228, PubMed : 26627831, PubMed : 8910473). The ion channel is also permeable to HCO(3)(-); selectivity depends on the extracellular chloride concentration (PubMed : 15010471, PubMed : 19019741). In vitro, mediates ATP-dependent glutathione flux (PubMed : 12727866). Exerts its function also by modulating the activity of other ion channels and transporters (PubMed : 12403779, PubMed : 22121115, PubMed : 22178883, PubMed : 27941075). Plays an important role in airway fluid homeostasis (PubMed : 16645176, PubMed : 19621064, PubMed : 26823428). Contributes to the regulation of the pH and the ion content of the airway surface fluid layer and thereby plays an important role in defense against pathogens (PubMed : 14668433, PubMed : 16645176, PubMed : 26823428). Modulates the activity of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) complex, in part by regulating the cell surface expression of the ENaC complex (PubMed : 17182731, PubMed : 17434346, PubMed : 27941075). Inhibits the activity of the ENaC channel containing subunits SCNN1A, SCNN1B and SCNN1G (PubMed : 17182731). Inhibits the activity of the ENaC channel containing subunits SCNN1D, SCNN1B and SCNN1G, but not of the ENaC channel containing subunits SCNN1A, SCNN1B and SCNN1G (PubMed : 17182731, PubMed : 27941075). May regulate bicarbonate secretion and salvage in epithelial cells by regulating the transporter SLC4A7 (PubMed : 12403779). Can inhibit the chloride channel activity of ANO1 (PubMed : 22178883). Plays a role in the chloride and bicarbonate homeostasis during sperm epididymal maturation and capacitation (PubMed : 19923167, PubMed : 27714810). See full target information CFTR
