Bicarbonate, along with CO2, is the major pH buffer of biological fluids.
The inter-conversion of CO2 to HCO3- is mediated by family of carbonic anhydrases.
Several organs specialize in the mobilization of HCO3-.
The pancreatic ducts move CO2 and HCO3- from the blood into pancreatic secretions.
The kidneys reabsorb massive amount of HCO3- daily (amount of NaHCO3 contained in 1 Ib of baking soda) through the glomerular flirtation of ~180 liters of plasma.
To prevent a massive acidosis, thebe tissue specific.
Physiologically, NBC is electrogenic, Na+ and HCO3- dependent, Cl- independent, and inhibited by stilbenes (DIDS and SITS).
The NBC family of proteins are 30-35% related to anion exchangers (AE2 and AE3; SLC4A1-SLC4A3) and display the same protein topology: (a) At least 10 TM domains with both the N and C-termini predicted to be intracellular, (b) presence of a large, glycosylated, extracellular loop between TM5 and TM6; and (c) the lysine residues are conserved at predicted DIDS-reactive sites.
