Disease
SL9A9_HUMAN A chromosomal aberration involving SLC9A9 has been found in a family with early-onset behavioral/developmental disorder with features of attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder and intellectual disability. Inversion inv(3)(p14:q21). The inversion disrupts DOCK3 and SLC9A9.[1] Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
SL9A9_HUMAN Endosomal Na(+), K(+)/H(+) antiporter. Mediates the electroneutral exchange of endosomal luminal H(+) for a cytosolic Na(+) or K(+) (Probable). By facilitating proton efflux, SLC9A9 counteracts the acidity generated by vacuolar (V)-ATPase, thereby limiting luminal acidification. Regulates organellar pH and consequently, e.g., endosome maturation and endocytic trafficking of plasma membrane receptors and neurotransporters (PubMed:15522866, PubMed:24065030, PubMed:28130443). Promotes the recycling of transferrin receptors back to the cell surface to facilitate additional iron uptake in the brain (PubMed:28130443). Regulates synaptic transmission by regulating the luminal pH of axonal endosomes (By similarity). Regulates phagosome lumenal pH, thus affecting phagosome maturation, and consequently, microbicidal activity in macrophages (By similarity). Can also be active at the cell surface of specialized cells, e.g., in the inner ear hair bundles uses the high K(+) of the endolymph to regulate intracellular pH (By similarity).[UniProtKB:Q8BZ00][2] [3] [4] [5]
