KCl symporter, KCC3 (Andermann Syndrome protein) of 1150 aas and 12 TMSs. Erythroid-specific inactivation of Slc12a6/Kcc3 by EpoR promoter-driven Cre expression reduces K-Cl cotransport activity in mouse erythrocytes (Shmukler et al. 2022). Both KCC3b and KCC3a seem to be needed for maintaining cell volume during enhanced inward cotransport of Na+-glucose in proximal tubules and Na+-HCO3- in intercalated cells (Ferdaus and Delpire 2023). In addition, apical KCC3a might couple to pendrin function to recycle Cl-, particularly in conditions of low salt diet and therefore low Cl- delivery to the distal tubule. This function is critical in alkalemia, and KCC3a function in the pendrin-expressing cells may contribute to the K+ loss which is observed in alkalemia (Ferdaus and Delpire 2023).
