Background and Alternate Names
Human Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR), is a 12-transmembrane ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter-class ion channel protein but uniquely acts as an ion channel regulated by ATP binding and phosphorylation. CFTR functions as a chloride and bicarbonate ion channel in epithelial cells. It plays a critical role in maintaining fluid balance across tissues such as the lungs, pancreas, and intestines. Mutations in the CFTR gene lead to cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder characterized by thick mucus buildup, chronic lung infections, and impaired digestion. Human CFTR protein has ~85% sequence homology with mouse CFTR.
