The Role of Pendrin in Health and Disease Molecular and Functional Aspects of the SLC26A4 Anion Exchanger /
This book reviews the current state of knowledge on the genetics, molecular biology and physiology of pendrin, with a particular focus on pendrin dysfunction and the consequences for human health. Pendrin is a membrane transport protein expressed in the thyroid, inner ear, kidney and airways, and w...
