Function | Endosomal Na(+), K(+)/H(+) antiporter (PubMed:15522866, PubMed:28635961, PubMed:31676550, PubMed:32277048). Mediates the electroneutral exchange of endosomal luminal H(+) for a cytosolic Na(+) or K(+). By facilitating proton efflux, SLC9A6 counteracts the acidity generated by vacuolar (V)-ATPase, thereby limiting luminal acidification. Responsible for alkalizing and maintaining the endosomal pH, and consequently in, e.g., endosome maturation and trafficking of recycling endosomal cargo (PubMed:15522866, PubMed:28635961, PubMed:31676550, PubMed:32277048). Plays a critical role during neurodevelopment by regulating synaptic development and plasticity (By similarity). Implicated in the maintenance of cell polarity in a manner that is dependent on its ability to modulate intravesicular pH (PubMed:20130086). Regulates intracelular pH in some specialized cells, osteoclasts and stereocilia where this transporter localizes to the plasma membrane (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Recycling endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Early endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Late endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Present predominantly in the recycling compartments including early and recycling endosomes, but undergoes plasma membrane localization during vesicular recycling, which is enhanced upon certain stimuli, such as hypoxia (PubMed:11940519, PubMed:28635961, PubMed:30296617). Has a major plasmalemmal distribution in a few specialized cells, such as in vestibular hair bundles and osteoblasts (By similarity) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A1L3P4, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11940519, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28635961, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30296617} |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitous. High expression in brain, skeletal muscle, and heart, but is also detected at lower levels in most other tissues. |
