Abstract excerpt
We have isolated and characterized cDNA clones encoding the murine homologue of a putative fourth Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit isoform (alpha4). The predicted polypeptide is 1032 amino acids in length and exhibits 75% amino acid sequence identity to the rat alpha1, alpha2, and alpha3 subunits. Within the first extracellular loop, the alpha4 subunit is highly divergent from other Na,K-ATPase alpha subunits. Because...
