OverviewNCBI Gene

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases, and to the subfamily of Na+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an integral membrane protein responsible for establishing and maintaining the electrochemical gradients of Na and K ions across the plasma membrane. These gradients are essential for osmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a variety of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electrical excitability of nerve and muscle. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, a large catalytic subunit (alpha) and a smaller glycoprotein subunit (beta). The catalytic subunit of Na+/K+ -ATPase is encoded by multiple genes. This gene encodes an alpha 2 subunit. Mutations in this gene result in familial basilar or hemiplegic migraines, and in a rare syndrome known as alternating hemiplegia of childhood.

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Whether an antibody against ATP1A2 can act on the native protein depends on physical access: surface and secreted proteins are reachable by circulating antibodies, intracellular proteins usually are not.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads ATP1A2 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ATP1A2 could matter depends on whether native ATP1A2 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

ATP1A2 is annotated at the cell surface, where native ATP1A2 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label ATP1A2 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
