Comments [?]

Function Fluoride-specific ion channel. Important for reducing fluoride concentration in the cell, thus reducing its toxicity.
Catalytic activity RHEA:76159: fluoride(in) = fluoride(out)
PhysiologicalDirection=left-to-right (RHEA:76160)
case <FTGroup:1>
Activity regulation Na(+) is not transported, but it plays an essential structural role and its presence is essential for fluoride channel function.
end case
case not defined <Property:Membrane> or <Property:Membrane=1>
Subcellular location Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
else case <Property:Membrane=2>
Subcellular location Cell inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
end case
Similarity Belongs to the fluoride channel Fluc/FEX (TC 1.A.43) family.
