Facts about Electroneutral sodium bicarbonate exchanger 1.
May be involved in cell pH regulation by transporting HCO3(-) from blood to cell. Increased expression in acute acid strain could be important for cell survival by mediating the influx of HCO3(-) into the cells.

Expressed in the pyramidal cells of the hippocampus (at protein level). Highly expressed in all major regions of the brain, spinal column and in testis, and moderate levels in trachea, thyroid and medulla region of kidney. Low expression levels observed in pancreas and kidney cortex.
