Tbio
SLC24A5
Sodium/potassium/calcium exchanger 5

Protein Summary
Description
Cation exchanger involved in pigmentation, possibly by participating in ion transport in melanosomes. Predominant sodium-Calcium exchanger in melanocytes. Probably transports 1 Ca(2+) and 1 K(+) to the melanosome in exchange for 4 cytoplasmic Na(+). This gene is a member of the potassium-dependent sodium/calcium exchanger family and encodes an intracellular membrane protein with 2 large hydrophilic loops and 2 sets of multiple transmembrane-spanning segments. Sequence variation in this gene has been associated with differences in skin pigmentation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
