Glycosylation controls sodium-calcium exchanger 3 sub-cellular localization during cell cycle

The Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) is a membrane antiporter that has been identified in the plasma membrane, the inner membrane of the nuclear envelope and in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In humans, three genes have been identified, encoding unique NCX proteins. Although extensively studied, the NCX’s sub-cellular localization and mechanisms regulating the activity of different subtypes are still ambiguous. Here we investigated the...
