Abstract
Sodium proton antiporters are ubiquituous membrane proteins which have been found in the cytoplasmic and subcellular membranes of cells of many different origins, including plants and animals, and in microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, and fungi. 1-5 They exchange Na+ and H+ ions and have been assigned central roles in signal transduction and cell homeostasis such as regulation of intracellular pH (pHin), cell Na+ content, and cell volume.
