Bicarbonate Transport proteins move bicarbonate (HCO3-) across the plasma membrane of our cells. This process is essential to control cell levels of the waste product carbon dioxide (CO2) and to regulate the pH (acid level) both inside and outside our cells. Bicarbonate transpo...

Bicarbonate Transport proteins move bicarbonate (HCO3-) across the plasma membrane of our cells. This process is essential to control cell levels of the waste product carbon dioxide (CO2) and to regulate the pH (acid level) both inside and outside our cells. Bicarbonate transport is a simple yet central part of our body's normal functioning. Disruption of bicarbonate transport underlies many diseases. Our laboratory studies the role of bicarbonate transport in causing disease.
