Concerning the entry for S. cerevisiae NHX1/NHA2:
 
The term "NHA2" is no longer widely accepted in the ion transporter field. Rather "NHX1" is preferred based on extensive phylogenetic analyses and further studies <ref>Brett CL, Donowitz M, Rao R. (2005) Evolutionary origins of eukaryotic sodium/proton exchangers. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 288(2): C223-39.<ref><ref>Orlowski J, Grinstein S. (2007) Emerging roles of alkali cation/proton exchangers in organellar homeostasis. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 19(4): 483-92<ref>. In fact, this gene was first identified by Nass anad Rao who originally named it "NHX1", a year prior to the Numata and Orlowski publication which renamed the same gene "NHA2".<ref>Nass R, Cunningham KW, Rao R. (1997) Intracellular sequestration of sodium by a novel Na+/H+ exchanger in yeast is enhanced by mutations in the plasma membrane H+-ATPase. Insights into mechanisms of sodium tolerance. J Biol Chem. 272(42): 26145-52<ref>. Nass and Rao then demonstrated that the yeast NHX1 is found at the late endosomal compartment of yeast, not mitochondira <ref>Nass R, Rao R. (1998) Novel localization of a Na+/H+ exchanger in a late endosomal compartment of yeast. Implications for vacuole biogenesis. J Biol Chem. 273(33): 21054-60.<ref>; the human NHX1 paralog NHE6 (or SLC9A6, also described in the Numata and Orlowski article) is also found in endosomal compartments of mammalian cells <ref>Brett CL, Wei Y, Donowitz M, Rao R. (2002) Human Na(+)/H(+) exchanger isoform 6 is found in recycling endosomes of cells, not in mitochondria. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 282(5): C1031-41.<ref> <ref>Hill JK, Brett CL, Chyou A, Kallay LM, Sakaguchi M, Rao R, Gillespie PG. (2006) Vestibular hair bundles control pH with (Na+, K+)/H+ exchangers NHE6 and NHE9. J Neurosci. 26(39): 9944-55<ref>. Nhx1 is a member of the Cation Proton Antiporter (CPA) superfamily of genes that includes bacterial NhaAs of which a crystal structure has been solved <ref>Brett CL, Donowitz M, Rao R. (2005) Evolutionary origins of eukaryotic sodium/proton exchangers. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 288(2): C223-39.<ref> <ref>Arkin IT, et al. (2007) Mechanism of Na+/H+ antiporting. Science. 317(5839): 799-803<ref>. The nine human orthologs are grouped as the SoLute Carrier 9A family (SLC9A1-9) by HUGO nomenclature. At the endosome, Nhx1 (and its mammalian paralogs SLC9A6, 7 or 9) are believed to contribute to membrane trafficking by controlling organellar pH <ref>Ali R, Brett CL, Mukherjee S, Rao R.

(2005) Four Na+/H+ exchanger isoforms are distributed to Golgi and post-Golgi compartments and are involved in organelle pH regulation. J Biol Chem. 280(2): 1561-72.<ref>. Of note, each human NHX1 paralog has been linked to mental retardation or autism <ref>Morrow EM, et al. (2008) Identifying autism loci and genes by tracing recent shared ancestry.

(2008) SLC9A6 mutations cause X-linked mental retardation, microcephaly, epilepsy, and ataxia, a phenotype mimicking Angelman syndrome. Am J Hum Genet. 82(4): 1003-10<ref>. Currently, there is no experimental evidence directly linking Nhx1 (formerly Nha2) or other CPA genes to mitochondrial Na+/H+ exchange.
