CHP1 calcineurin like EF-hand protein 1

Gene ID: 11261, updated on 28-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CHP; p22; p24; SPAX9; Sid470p; SLC9A1BP

Summary

This gene encodes a phosphoprotein that binds to the Na+/H+ exchanger NHE1. This protein serves as an essential cofactor which supports the physiological activity of NHE family members and may play a role in the mitogenic regulation of NHE1. The protein shares similarity with calcineurin B and calmodulin and it is also known to be an endogenous inhibitor of calcineurin activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
