tweety family member 3

Symbol

TTYH3 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

This gene encodes a member of the tweety family of proteins. Members of this family function as chloride anion channels. The encoded protein functions as a calcium(2+)-activated large conductance chloride(-) channel. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
