Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit alpha-3

UniProt P13637 Organism Homo sapiens Gene ATP1A3 EC 7.2.2.13

Also known as: ATP1A3

Function

Neuron-specific alpha catalytic component of the Na(+)/K(+)-transporting ATPase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of Na(+) and K(+) ions across the plasma membrane. Transports 3 Na(+) ions out of the cell and 2 K(+) ions into the cell for each ATP hydrolyze against their electrochemical gradients to maintain ion concentration gradients across the membranes (By similarity). In the brain, ATP1A3 is critical for neuronal cell signaling and for maintenance of electrochemical stability, enabling cell excitation and action potential propagation.
