SLC9A2 (Solute Carrier Family 9 Member A2) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with SLC9A2 include Proximal Renal Tubular Acidosis and Diarrhea 1, Secretory Chloride, Congenital. Among its related pathways are Transport of glucose and other sugars, bile salts and organic acids, metal ions and amine compounds and G12-G13 in Cellular Signaling. SLC9A2 encodes a member of the sodium-hydrogen exchanger (NHE) protein family. These proteins are involved in sodium-ion transport by exchanging intracellular hydrogen ions to external sodium ions and help in the regulation of cell pH and volume. The encoded protein is localized to the apical membrane and is involved in apical absorption of sodium.
