Description: Homo sapiens ATPase, Na+/K+ transporting, alpha 1 polypeptide (ATP1A1), transcript variant 1, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_000701): The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases, and to the subfamily of Na+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an integral membrane protein responsible for establishing and maintaining the electrochemical gradients of Na and K ions across the plasma membrane. These gradients are essential for osmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a variety of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electrical excitability of nerve and muscle. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, a large catalytic subunit (alpha) and a smaller glycoprotein subunit (beta). The catalytic subunit of Na+/K+ -ATPase is encoded by multiple genes. This gene encodes an alpha 1 subunit. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009].

ID:AT1A1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit alpha-1; Short=Na(+)/K(+) ATPase alpha-1 subunit; EC=3.6.3.9; AltName: Full=Sodium pump subunit alpha-1; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: This is the catalytic component of the active enzyme, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of sodium and potassium ions across the plasma membrane. This action creates the electrochemical gradient of sodium and potassium ions, providing the energy for active transport of various nutrients. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + H(2)O + Na(+)(In) + K(+)(Out) = ADP + phosphate + Na(+)(Out) + K(+)(In). SUBUNIT: Interacts with SIK1 (By similarity). Composed of three subunits: alpha (catalytic), beta and gamma. Binds the HLA class II histocompatibility antigen, DR1. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Melanosome. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. PTM: Phosphorylation on Tyr-10 modulates pumping activity. Dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) following increases in intracellular sodium, leading to increase catalytic activity (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cation transport ATPase (P-type) (TC 3.A.3) family. Type IIC subfamily.

Correlation observed between C-peptide levels and RBC's Na/K ATPase suggests that the deleterious effect of C peptide deficiency on Na/K ATPase activity is worse in the presence of the restriction site. This may explain the high relative risk of developing the neuropathy observed in type 1 diabetic patients bearing the variant allele.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
