**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human SLC4A7 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 3p22 and is approximately 137 kb in length. This allele, which encodes sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 3 protein, plays a role in the symport of sodium and bicarbonate ions. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the gene may contribute to breast cancer susceptibility.
