Abstract: The function of the members of the chloride channel (CLC) protein family, which encode organellar proton chloride exchangers, remains to be fully elucidated. Arabidopsis thaliana CLCa, a member of this family, mediates specific nitrate accumulation into the plant vacuole through a NO3−/H+ exchanger mechanism.
