    text
  • localizes to endosomes
  • is also found in the plasma membrane
  • seem exclusively localized in intracellular organelles such as mitochondrial
  • basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in electroneural exchange of protons for Na+ and K+ across the mitochondrial inner membrane
  • contributing to organellar volume and calcium homeostasis
  • playing a role in pH regulation
  • regulatory protein in the endosomal recycling system in apical surface development
  • in mineralizing osteoblasts, slightly basic basal pHi is maintained, and external acid load is dissipated, by high-capacity Na(+) /H(+) exchange via SLC9A1 and SLC9A6
  • regulates potentially clathrin-dependent endocytosis of transferrin via pH regulation
  • may play a unique, previously unrecognized, role at glutamatergic synapses that are important for learning and memory
