Primary Drug Target
| Name | Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase alpha-1 chain | | Gene Name | ATP1A1 | | Synonyms | Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase alpha-1 chain precursor; EC 3.6.3.9; Sodium pump 1; Na+/K+ ATPase 1 | | General Function | Inorganic ion transport and metabolism | | Specific Function | This is the catalytic component of the active enzyme, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of sodium and potassium ions across the plasma membrane. This action creates the electrochemical gradient of sodium and potassium ions, providing the energy for active transport of various nutrients. | | Reaction | ATP + H2O + Na+(in) + K+(out) = ADP + phosphate + Na+(out) + K+(in) |
