Mediates the exchange of one Ca2+ ion against three to four Na+ ions across the cell membrane, and thereby contributes to the regulation of cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels and Ca2+-dependent cellular processes (PubMed:8659820). Contributes to Ca2+ transport during excitation-contraction coupling in muscle. In a first phase, voltage-gated channels mediate the rapid increase of cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels due to release of Ca2+ stores from the endoplasmic reticulum. SLC8A1 mediates the export of Ca2+ from the cell during the next phase, so that cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels rapidly return to baseline (PubMed:10967099). Required for normal embryonic heart development and the onset of heart contractions (PubMed:10967099).Curated
