Gene information for ATP4A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database) |
Entrez gene ID | 495 |
Official gene symbol | ATP4A |
Full name | ATPase, H+/K+ exchanging, alpha polypeptide |
Aliases | ,ATP6A, |
Gene summary | The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of P-type cation-transporting ATPases. The gastric H+, K+-ATPase is a heterodimer consisting of a high molecular weight catalytic alpha subunit and a smaller but heavily glycosylated beta subunit. This enzyme is a proton pump that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of H(+) and K(+) ions across the plasma membrane. It is also responsible for gastric acid secretion. This gene encodes a catalytic alpha subunit of the gastric H+, K+-ATPase. [provided by RefSeq] |
