SLC8B1

protein-coding

solute carrier family 8 member B1, the group of Solute carrier family 8

Gene 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]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001358345.2. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Mitochondrial sodium/calcium antiporter that mediates sodium-dependent calcium efflux from mitochondrion, by mediating the exchange of 3 sodium ions per 1 calcium ion (PubMed:20018762, PubMed:22829870, PubMed:23056385, PubMed:24898248, PubMed:28219928). Plays a central role in mitochondrial calcium homeostasis by mediating mitochondrial calcium extrusion: calcium efflux is essential for mitochondrial function and cell survival, notably in cardiomyocytes (By similarity). Regulates rates of glucose-dependent insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells during the first phase of insulin secretion: acts by mediating efflux of calcium from mitochondrion, thereby affecting cytoplasmic calcium responses (PubMed:23056385). Required for store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) and Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channel regulation: sodium transport by SLC8B1 leads to promote calcium-shuttling that modulates mitochondrial redox status, thereby regulating SOCE activity (PubMed:28219928). Involved in B-lymphocyte chemotaxis (By similarity). Able to transport Ca(2+) in exchange of either Li(+) or Na(+), explaining how Li(+) catalyzes Ca(2+) exchange (PubMed:15060069). In contrast to other members of the family its function is independent of K(+) (PubMed:15060069). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q925Q3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15060069, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20018762, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22829870, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23056385, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24898248, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28219928}.;
