ATPase Transporting beta 1

ATPaseTransporting Beta 1 (ATP1B1) is a part of the family of Na+/K+ and H+/K+ ATPases beta chain proteins, and the subfamily of Na+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an essential membrane protein accountable for establishing and maintaining the electrochemical gradients of Na and K ions over the plasma membrane. These gradients are vital for osmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a range of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electrical excitability of muscle and nerve. ATP1B1is combined of 2 subunits, a large catalytic subunit (alpha) and a smaller glycoprotein subunit (beta). The beta subunit regulates the number of sodium pumps transported to the plasma membrane through assembly of alpha/beta heterodimers. ATP1B1 is a beta 1 subunit.

ATP1B1 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 264 amino acids (63-303) and having a molecular mass of 30.4 kDa.

ATP1B1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
