Sodium–hydrogen antiporter 1

Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens


Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

The sodium-hydrogen antiporter 1 (NHE-1) also known as sodium/hydrogen exchanger 1 or SLC9A1 (SoLute Carrier family 9A1) is an isoform of sodium–hydrogen antiporter that in humans is encoded by the SLC9A1 gene.

Function

The Na+/H+ antiporter (SLC9A1) is a ubiquitous membrane-bound enzyme involved in volume- and pH-regulation of vertebrate cells. It is inhibited by the non-specific diuretic drug amiloride and activated by a variety of signals including growth factors, mitogens, neurotransmitters, tumor promoters, and others.

Interactions

Sodium–hydrogen antiporter 1 has been shown to interact with carbonic anhydrase II and CHP. It is also the target of the experimental drug rimeporide, which is being developed for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
