About SLC8B1

Cytogenetic location: 12q24.13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:113,298,771-113,335,109 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants) and 207 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 24.7), adrenal (RPKM 19.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

SLC24A6 belongs to a family of potassium-dependent sodium/calcium exchangers that maintain cellular calcium homeostasis through the electrogenic countertransport of 4 sodium ions for 1 calcium ion and 1 potassium ion (Cai and Lytton, 2004 [PubMed 14625281]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
