SLC9A2, Official Symbol SLC9A2provided by HGNC Official Full Name solute carrier family 9 member A2provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:11072 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000115616 MIM:600530; AllianceGenome:HGNC:11072 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as NHE2 Summary This gene encodes a member of the sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE) protein family. These proteins are involved in sodium-ion transport by exchanging intracellular hydrogen ions to external sodium ions and help in the regulation of cell pH and volume. The encoded protein is localized to the apical membrane and is involved in apical absorption of sodium.
