About SLC8A1

Summary

Enables calcium:cation antiporter activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic cytosolic calcium ion concentration; calcium:sodium antiporter activity; and ion antiporter activity involved in regulation of postsynaptic membrane potential. Involved in several processes, including metal ion transport; regulation of heart contraction; and response to purine-containing compound. Located in several cellular components, including T-tubule; Z disc; and dendrite. Is integral component of postsynaptic membrane. Used to study brain ischemia. Biomarker of brain ischemia; congestive heart failure; hypertension; and status epilepticus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension. Orthologous to human SLC8A1 (solute carrier family 8 member A1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
