Protein name Sodium/hydrogen exchanger 8 (Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 8) (NHE-8) (Solute carrier family 9 member 8)
Protein function Na(+)/H(+) antiporter. Mediates the electoneutral exchange of intracellular H(+) ions for extracellular Na(+) in 1:1 stoichiometry (PubMed:15522866). Acts as an Na(+)/H(+) exchanger in the trans-Golgi. Contributes to the regulation of pH regulat
