Facts about Volume-regulated anion channel subunit LRRC8C.
Channel activity requires LRRC8A plus at least one other family member (LRRC8B, LRRC8C, LRRC8D or LRRC8E); channel characteristics depend on the precise subunit composition. .

Expressed at highest levels in skeletal muscle, and at moderate levels in heart, lung and peripheral blood leukocytes.
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. In the absence of LRRC8A, resides primarily in a cytoplasmic compartment, probably the endoplasmic reticulum. Requires LRRC8A for expression at the cell membrane.
