A trafficking-deficient mutant of KCC3 reveals dominant-negative effects on K-Cl cotransport function.

The K-Cl cotransporter (KCC) functions in maintaining chloride and volume homeostasis in a variety of cells. In the process of cloning the mouse KCC3 cDNA, we came across a cloning mutation (E289G) that rendered the cotransporter inactive in functional assays in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Through bioch...
