High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The sodium-chloride symporter also known as a symporter ion pump used primarily to remove sodium and chloride ions from the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney. In humans, it is encoded by the gene SLC12A3. This symporter is also known as the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter since its action can be blocked by thiazide. A symporter is an integral membrane protein that is involved in movement of two or more different molecules or ions across a phospholipid membrane such as the plasma membrane in the same direction, and is therefore a type of cotransporter. Typically, the ion(s) will move down the electrochemical gradient, allowing the other molecule(s) to move against the concentration gradient.
