Abstract
⺠AE3 Clâ/HCO3â- exchanger interacts with the CAXIV enzyme in the heart. ⺠CAXIV bound to and raised AE3 transport, establishing a physical/functional complex. ⺠Hypertrophic rat hearts showed elevated CAXIV protein expression. ⺠AE-mediated HCO3â fluxes increased in the hypertrophic myocardium compared to normal. ⺠AE3/CAXIV complex formation would render AE3 hyperactive in the hypertrophic heart.
