Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function LRC8A_MOUSE Essential component of the volume-regulated anion channel (VRAC, also named VSOAC channel), an anion channel required to maintain a constant cell volume in response to extracellular or intracellular osmotic changes. The VRAC channel conducts iodide better than chloride and may also conduct organic osmolytes like taurine. Required for channel activity, together with at least one other family member (LRRC8B, LRRC8C, LRRC8D or LRRC8E); channel characteristics depend on the precise subunit composition. Can form functional channels by itself (in vitro) (By similarity). Involved in B-cell development: required for the pro-B cell to pre-B cell transition (PubMed:14660746, PubMed:24752297). Also required for T-cell development (PubMed:24752297).[UniProtKB:Q8IWT6]
