Comment typeDescription
Alternative ProductsEvent=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=5; Comment=Additional isoforms seem to exist.; Name=1; Synonyms=MRP3; IsoId=O15438-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; Synonyms=MRP3A; IsoId=O15438-2; Sequence=VSP_000042; Note=May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.; Name=3; Synonyms=MRP3B; IsoId=O15438-3; Sequence=VSP_000040, VSP_000041; Note=May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.; Name=4; Synonyms=MRP3S1; IsoId=O15438-4; Sequence=VSP_043864; Note=May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. No experimental confirmation available.; Name=5; IsoId=O15438-5; Sequence=VSP_039041, VSP_039042; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
FunctionMay act as an inducible transporter in the biliary and intestinal excretion of organic anions. Acts as an alternative route for the export of bile acids and glucuronides from cholestatic hepatocytes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
