ncx-10 encodes a putative Na[+]/Ca[2+] exchanger of uncertain stoichiometry and affinity, orthologous to human SLC24A6 and paralogous to NCX-6/-9; NCX-10 may function intracellularly; NCX-10 has tandem Calx-alpha domains predicted to carry out ion transport; NCX-10 has no obvious function in mass RNAi assays.
Predicted to enable calcium:sodium antiporter activity. Predicted to be involved in intracellular calcium ion homeostasis and monoatomic cation transport. Predicted to be located in membrane. Expressed in pharyngeal muscle cell and terminal bulb. Is an ortholog of human SLC8B1 (solute carrier family 8 member B1).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
