SLC9A6

The SLC9A6 gene encodes a monovalent sodium-selective sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE) that is found in the membranes of intracellular organelles such as mitochondria and endosomes. NHEs participate in a wide array of essential cellular processes, including control of intracellular pH, maintenance of cellular volume, and reabsorption of sodium across renal, intestinal, and other epithelia.[supplied by OMIM
