What's a GeneRIF?

Data suggest that Nhx1p plays an important role in regulation of the luminal pH of various intracellular organelles, and that this regulation is critical for the protein recycling pathway as well as the endocytic pathway.
Title: Localization and functional requirement of yeast Na+/H+ exchanger, Nhx1p, in the endocytic and protein recycling pathway.
Nhx1 is not required for cargo sorting or multivesicular body formation and shows synthetic phenotypes with select endosomal sorting complex required for transport mutants
Title: Endosomal Na+ (K+)/H+ exchanger Nhx1/Vps44 functions independently and downstream of multivesicular body formation.
Nhx1p contributes to MVB formation by the recruitment of Vps27p to the endosomal membrane, possibly through Nhx1p antiporter activity.
Title: The endosomal Na(+)/H(+) exchanger contributes to multivesicular body formation by regulating the recruitment of ESCRT-0 Vps27p to the endosomal membrane.
The authors conclude that Arl1p, Kha1p and Nhx1p collaborate in survival strategies at nonoptimal pH, temperatures and cation concentrations, but work independent of each other.
Title: Genetic interactions among the Arl1 GTPase and intracellular Na(+) /H(+) antiporters in pH homeostasis and cation detoxification.
Gene knockout of NHX1 increases sensitivity to hygromycin and acidic pH in yeast cells.
Title: Saccharomyces cerevisiae glucose signalling regulator Mth1p regulates the organellar Na+/H+ exchanger Nhx1p.
analysis of the relative importance of Nhx1p, Vnx1p, and Vcx1p in the vacuolar accumulation of monovalent cations
Title: Vacuolar cation/H+ antiporters of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The trafficking phenotypes of all Nhx1 mutants, including hygromycin-sensitivity and missorting of carboxypeptidase Y, were found to directly correlate with pH homoeostasis defects and could be proportionately corrected by titration with weak base.
Title: Mutational analysis of the intramembranous H10 loop of yeast Nhx1 reveals a critical role in ion homoeostasis and vesicle trafficking.
the Na+K+/H+ exchanger Nhx1 regulates cellular pH to control vesicle trafficking
Title: The yeast endosomal Na+K+/H+ exchanger Nhx1 regulates cellular pH to control vesicle trafficking.
The high sequence conservation within this subfamily of yeast antiporters suggests that Nhx1p is of great importance in cell physiology
