Abstract excerpt
The amino terminus of the catalytic alpha-subunit from Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) is not conserved among the various isoforms and species sequenced to date, yet it always includes a lysine-rich motif. To investigate the functional role played by this highly charged region, we altered the amino terminus of rat alpha 1 and evaluated the ability of the mutant to sustain cell viability. Nucleotide...
