Isoform one of the mammalian Na + /H + exchanger is a plasma membrane protein that is ubiquitously present in humans. It regulates intracellular pH through the removal of one intracellular proton in exchange for a single extracellular sodium. It consists of a 500 amino acid membrane domain plus a 315 amino acid, C-terminal tail. We examined amino acids of the C-terminal tail that are important in the targeting and activity of the protein. A previous study demonstrated that stop codon polymorphisms can result in decreased activity, expression, targeting and enhanced protein degradation. Here, we determine elements that are critical in these anomalies. A series of progressive deletions of the C-terminal tail demonstrated a progressive decrease in activity and targeting, though these remained until a final drop off with the deletion of amino acids 563-566. The deletion of the 562 LIAGERS 568 sequence or the alteration to the 562 LAAAARS 568 sequence caused the decreased protein expression, aberrant targeting, reduced activity and enhanced degradation of the Na + /H + exchanger (NHE1) protein. The 562 LIAGERS 568 sequence bound to other regions of the C-terminal cytosolic domain. We suggest this region is necessary for the activity, targeting, stability, and expression of the NHE1 protein. The results define a new sequence that is important in maintenance of NHE1 protein levels and activity.
