Abstract excerpt
The Cys in the first transmembrane region of the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) alpha 1-subunit has been shown to be a critical determinant of cardiac glycoside binding. To study the role of this Cys on ion transport activity, we measured pump currents in HeLa cells expressing wild-type or mutant alpha 1-subunit cDNAs. The endogenous ouabainsensitive Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was selectively inhibited by...
