A0A1V5ULQ3 · A0A1V5ULQ3_9BACT

Function

function

Fluoride-specific ion channel. Important for reducing fluoride concentration in the cell, thus reducing its toxicity.

Caution

The sequence shown here is derived from an EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ whole genome shotgun (WGS) entry which is preliminary data.

Catalytic activity

Activity regulation

Na+ is not transported, but it plays an essential structural role and its presence is essential for fluoride channel function.
