About Fxyd2

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of small membrane proteins that share a 35-amino acid signature sequence domain, beginning with the sequence PFXYD and containing 7 invariant and 6 highly conserved Amino acids. This gene, also known as the gamma subunit of the Na,K-ATPase, regulates the properties of that enzyme. Related gene family members have been shown to induce channel activity in experimental expression systems. Transmembrane topology has been established for two family members, with the N-terminus extracellular and the C-terminus on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. The Type III integral membrane protein encoded by this gene is the gamma subunit of the Na,K-ATPase present on the plasma membrane. Although the Na,K-ATPase does not depend on the gamma subunit to be functional, it is thought that the gamma subunit modulates the enzyme's activity by inducing ion channel activity. Two transcript variants have been described for this gene that encode distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
