Solute carrier family 24, member 6 (SLC24A6) or solute carrier family 8 (sodium/lithium/calcium exchanger), member B1 (SLC8B1) gene codes for Na+/Ca2+/Li+ exchanger (NCLX). NCLX belongs to the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) family. This protein is expressed at a high level in the brain, skeletal and heart muscle, pancreas β-cells, and lymphocyte B-cells. NCLX contains a small regulatory domain that has a phosphorylation site and lacks Ca2+ binding domains (CBDs).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human SLC24A6
Application
Anti-SLC24A6 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting[1](1:250).[2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Solute carrier family 8, member B1 (SLC8B1)/Na+/Ca2+/Li+ exchanger (NCLX) helps in the transportation of the sodium or lithium-ion in exchange for the calcium ion.

Mitochondrial Ca2+ transient is the earliest discovered organellar Ca2+ signaling pathway. It consist of a Ca2+ influx, mediated by mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU), and mitochondrial Ca2+ efflux mediated by a Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCLX). Mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling machinery plays a fundamental
Mitochondria are the major organelles in sensing cellular stress and inducing the response for cell survival. Mitochondrial Lon has been identified as an important stress protein involved in regulating proliferation, metastasis, and apoptosis in cancer cells. However, the mechanism of

The SLC8 gene family encoding Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchangers (NCX) belongs to the CaCA (Ca(2+)/Cation Antiporter) superfamily. Three mammalian genes (SLC8A1, SLC8A2, and SLC8A3) and their splice variants are expressed in a tissue-specific manner to mediate Ca(2+)-fluxes across the cell-membrane and thus
Calcium is a key regulator of mitochondrial function under both normal and pathological conditions. The mechanisms linking metabolic activity to mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling remain elusive, however. Here, by monitoring mitochondrial Ca2+ transients while manipulating mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), we found
Voltage dependent anion channel 2 (VDAC2) is an outer mitochondrial membrane porin known to play a significant role in apoptosis and calcium signaling. Abnormalities in calcium homeostasis often leads to electrical and contractile dysfunction and can cause dilated cardiomyopathy and
