Popis: H,K-ATPase is an integral protein of the plasma membrane of parietal cells. It is believed to constitute the pump responsible for secretion of acid into stomach. Its catalytic subunit (Mr 110,000) shows striking sequence homology to those of other transport ATPases. Recent studies suggest that there is also a glycoprotein (ca 300 amino acids) associated with the H,K pump, which is very homologous to the β subunit of the Na,K-ATPase.The enzyme is isolated in protein-rich membrane vesicles from hog stomachs. Formation of two-dimensional crystals is induced in suspensions of the enzyme by methods that had proved successful for crystallization of the Na,K-ATPase.
