Sodium/hydrogen exchanger 9 (Na+/H+ exchanger 9) (NHE-9; NHE9) (Solute carrier family 9 member 9, SLC9A9) of 645 aas and 12 TMSs. It may act in electroneutral exchange of protons for Na+ across membranes and is involved in the effusion of Golgi luminal H+ in exchange for cytosolic cations. It is also involved in organellar ion homeostasis by contributing to the maintenance of the unique acidic pH values of the Golgi and post-Golgi compartments in the cell (Nakamura et al. 2005). The cryogenic electron microscopy structure of NHE9 from Equus caballus at 3.2 A resolution has been determined (Winklemann et al. 2020). It is an endosomal isoform highly expressed in the brain and associated with autism spectrum (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) disorders in humans. The NHE9 architecture and ion-binding site are similar to distantly related bacterial Na+/H+ antiporters with 13 transmembrane segments. The conserved architecture of the NHE ion-binding site, their elevator-like structural transitions, the functional implications of autism disease mutations and the role of phosphoinositide lipids to promote homodimerization that, together, have important physiological ramifications have been revealed (Winklemann et al. 2020).
