INVITED REVIEW
Department of Stomatology, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143
The plasma membrane Na+/H+ exchanger NHE1 has an established function in intracellular pH and cell volume homeostasis by catalyzing electroneutral influx of extracellular Na+ and efflux of intracellular H+. A second function of NHE1 as a structural anchor for actin filaments through its direct binding of the ezrin, radixin, and moesin (ERM) family of actin-binding proteins was recently identified. ERM protein binding and actin anchoring by NHE1 are necessary to retain the localization of NHE1 in specialized plasma membrane domains and to promote cytoskeleton-dependent processes, including actin filament bundling and cell-substrate adhesions. This review explores a third function of NHE1, as a plasma membrane scaffold in the assembly of signaling complexes. Through its coordinate functions in H+ efflux, actin anchoring, and scaffolding, we propose that NHE1 promotes protein interactions and activities, assembles signaling complexes in specialized plasma membrane domains, and coordinates divergent signaling pathways.
