Abstract excerpt
A highly conserved sequence motif (4 tyrosines and 1 proline: YYPYY) of the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) beta 1-subunit ectodomain has been mutagenized to study its possible role in alpha/beta-assembly and sodium pump function. Single as well as double tyrosine mutants (tyrosine to phenylalanine: Y to F) of Xenopus laevis beta 1-subunits are able to associate with alpha 1-subunits and form...
