Anti-ATP1AL1

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases. This gene encodes a catalytic subunit of the ouabain-sensitive H+/K+ -ATPase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of H(+) and K(+) ions across the plasma membrane. It is also responsible for potassium absorption in various tissues. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010], Protein function: The catalytic subunit of a H(+)/K(+) ATPase and/or Na(+)/K(+) ATPase pump which transports K(+) ions in exchange for Na(+) and/or H(+) ions across the apical membrane of epithelial cells. Uses ATP as an energy source to pump K(+) ions into the cell while transporting Na(+) and/or H(+) ions to the extracellular compartment (PubMed:9774385, PubMed:7485470, PubMed:8853415, PubMed:11341842). Involved in the maintenance of electrolyte homeostasis through K(+) ion absorption in kidney and colon. In the airway epithelium, may play a primary role in mucus acidification regulating its viscosity and clearance (PubMed:29391451).
