Potassium-Hydrogen Antiporters

Membrane proteins that allow the exchange of hydrogen ions for potassium ions across the cellular membrane. The action of these antiporters influences intracellular pH and potassium ion homeostasis.

Also Known As:

K(+)-H(+)-Exchanger; Potassium-Hydrogen Antiporter; Potassium-Hydrogen Exchanger; Antiporter, Potassium-Hydrogen; Antiporters, Potassium-Hydrogen; Potassium Hydrogen Antiporter; Potassium Hydrogen Antiporters; Potassium Hydrogen Exchanger
