Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

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. Plays a role in sperm motility.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:16175638}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:16175638}. Note=In mature sperm, located in the principle piece of the sperm flagellum.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Specifically expressed in testis. Found in very low levels in skeletal muscle. Expressed in mature sperm (at protein level).
