This gene encodes a member of the potassium-dependent sodium/calcium exchanger protein family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
Function:
Transports 1 Ca(2+) and 1 K(+) in exchange for 4 Na(+).
Subcellular Location:
Membrane.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed abundantly in all regions of the brain, aorta, lung and thymus. Expressed at lower levels in the stomach and intestine.
Similarity:
Belongs to the sodium/potassium/calcium exchanger family. SLC24A subfamily.
