Abstract excerpt
We showed earlier that the kinetic behavior of the alpha2 isoform of the Na,K-ATPase differs from the ubiquitous alpha1 isoform primarily by a shift in the steady-state E(1)/E(2) equilibrium of alpha2 in favor of E(1) form(s). The aim of the present study was to identify regions of the alpha chain that confer the alpha1/alpha2 distinct behavior using a mutagenesis and chimera approach. Criteria to assess shifts...
