Atp1b2 (human) recombinant (partial protein gst tag) 10 µg

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of Na+/K+ and H+/K+ ATPases beta chain proteins, and to the subfamily of Na+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an integral membrane protein responsible for establishing and maintaining the electrochemical gradients of Na and K ions across the plasma membrane. These gradients are essential for osmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a variety of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electrical excitability of nerve and muscle. This enzyme is composed of two subunitéss, a large catalytic subunités (alpha) and a smaller glycoprotein subunités (beta). The beta subunités regulates, through assembly of alpha/beta heterodimers, the number of sodium pumps transported to the plasma membrane. The glycoprotein subunités of Na+/K+ -ATPase is encoded by multiple genes. This gene encodes a beta 2 subunités. [provided by RefSeq]
