Transports glucuronic acid and free sialic acid out of the lysosome after it is cleaved from sialoglycoconjugates undergoing degradation, this is required for normal CNS myelination. Mediates aspartate and glutamate membrane potential-dependent uptake into synaptic vesicles and synaptic-like microvesicles. Also functions as an electrogenic 2NO(3)(-)/H(+) cotransporter in the plasma membrane of salivary gland acinar cells, mediating the physiological nitrate efflux, 25% of the circulating nitrate ions is typically removed and secreted in saliva. Found in fetal lung and small intestine, and at lower level in fetal skin and muscle. In the adult, detected in placenta, kidney and pancreas. Abundant in the endothelial cells of tumors from ovary, colon, breast and lung, but is not detected in endothelial cells from the corresponding normal tissues. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily. Sodium/anion cotransporter family.
