Sodium Potassium ATPase Alpha 4 Products

Description

The protein encoded by the Sodium Potassium ATPase Alpha 4 gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases, and to the subfamily ofNa+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an integral membrane protein responsible for establishing and maintaining theelectrochemical gradients of Na and K ions across the plasma membrane. These gradients are essential forosmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a variety of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electricalexcitability of nerve and muscle. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, a large catalytic subunit (alpha) and asmaller glycoprotein subunit (beta). The catalytic subunit of Na+/K+ -ATPase is encoded by multiple genes. This geneencodes an alpha 4 subunit. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have beenidentified. (provided by RefSeq)
