Most cases of skin cancer and a few cervical cancers showed strong cytoplasmic staining. Several cases of melanoma, lung and urothelial cancers displayed moderate positivity. Remaining cancers were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
SLC26A11
Synonyms
Description
Solute carrier family 26 (anion exchanger), member 11 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the solute linked carrier 26 family of anion exchangers. Members of this family of proteins are essential for numerous cellular functions including homeostasis and intracellular electrolyte balance. The encoded protein is a sodium independent sulfate transporter that is sensitive to the anion exchanger inhibitor 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
