The gene Na pump α subunit is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Atpα (CG5670, FBgn0002921). It has the cytological map location 93A4. Its sequence location is 3R:16774436..16801022. Its molecular function is described as: sodium:potassium-exchanging ATPase activity; hydrolase activity, acting on acid anhydrides, catalyzing transmembrane movement of substances; cation transmembrane transporter activity; ATP binding; monovalent inorganic cation transmembrane transporter activity. It is involved in the biological processes described with 15 unique terms, many of which group under: anatomical structure development; open tracheal system development; locomotory behavior; ion transport; transport; behavior; response to abiotic stimulus; regulation of tube architecture, open tracheal system; determination of adult life span; response to mechanical stimulus; embryonic development via the syncytial blastoderm; primary metabolic process; monovalent inorganic cation transport; neuromuscular process; tissue homeostasis; response to temperature stimulus. 65 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with 13 unique terms, many of which group under: organ system; embryonic/larval tracheal system; anatomical structure; nervous system; tracheal system; embryonic segment; embryonic ganglionic branch; embryonic dorsal trunk; adult brain; plasma membrane part; embryonic trachea; adult segment. It has 8 annotated transcripts and 8 annotated polypeptides.

Atpα: (Na+ + K+) ATPase α subunit
Structural gene for the α or catalytic subunit of Na+ K+ ATPase (ouabain sensitive). Immunofluorescence microscopy with a monoclonal antibody demonstrates high concentrations of (ATPase in adult muscle, nervous tissue, and Malpighian tubules; strong immunofluorescence observed in brain, optic lobes, photoreceptor cells of retina, and ventral thoracic neuromere. Flies heterozygous for Df(3R)r1-G6 which lacks Atpα, are sluggish and less tolerant of physical stress than normal.

Comments on Gene Model
EST data support existence of multiple transcripts due to variable use of mini-exons . It is not known how many of the possible combinations of variable exons occur in vivo and all possible combinations have not been annotated.
DGC clone appears problematic (HL02687): genomically primed
EST data support existence of multiple transcripts due to variable use of 5' exons
