Sequence analysis of DNA encoding an avian Na+,K(+)-ATPase beta 2-subunit.
The DNA encoding a chicken Na+,K(+)-ATPase beta 2-subunit was cloned and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence has structural features common to all known Na+,K(+)-ATPase beta-subunits. It is proposed to belong to the beta 2-isoform family, though the amino acid sequence has significantly diverged from mammalian beta 2-subunit sequences. Similar to other Na+,K(+)-ATPase beta 2-isoforms, the chicken beta 2-isoform mRNA is predominantly expressed in brain tissue.
