The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome contains three genes encoding alkali metal cation/H+ antiporters (Nha1p, Nhx1p, Kha1p) that differ in cell localization, substrate specificity and physiological function. Systematic genome sequencing of other yeast species revealed highly conserved homologous ORFs in all of them. We compared the yeast sequences both at DNA and protein levels. The subfamily of yeast endosomal/prevacuolar Nhx1 antiporters is closely related to mammalian plasma membrane NHE proteins and to both plasma membrane and vacuolar plant antiporters. The high sequence conservation within this subfamily of yeast antiporters suggests that Nhx1p is of great importance in cell physiology. Yeast Kha1 proteins probably belong to the same subfamily as bacterial antiporters, whereas Nhal proteins form a distinct subfamily.
