Abstract
The Na+/Ca2+ exchange system is the primary Ca2+ efflux mechanism in cardiac myocytes, and plays an important role in controlling the force of cardiac contraction. The exchanger protein contains 11 transmembrane segments plus a large hydrophilic domain between the 5th and 6th transmembrane segments; the transmembrane regions are reponsible for mediating ion translocation while the hydrophilic domain is responsible for regulation of activity. Exchange activity is regulated in vitro by interconversions between an active state and either of two inactive states. High concentrations of cytosolic Na+ or the absence of cytosolic Ca2+ promote the formation of the inactive states; phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)bisphosphate (or other negatively charged phospholipids) and cytosolic Ca2+ counteract the inactivation process. The importance of these mechanisms in regulating exchange activity under normal physiological conditions is uncertain. Exchanger function is also dependent upon cytoskeletal interactions, and the exchanger's location with respect to intracellular Ca2+-sequestering organelles. An understanding of the exchanger's function in normal cell physiology will require more detailed information on the proximity of the exchanger and other Ca2+-transporting proteins, their interactions with the cytoskeleton, and local concentrations of anionic phospholipids and transported ions.
