The functional unit of Na,K-ATPase is a monomeric alphabeta protomer.

Abstract:

:The ouabain-resistant and ouabain-sensitive alpha-subunit cRNAs in various molar ratios were injected into Xenopus oocytes together with cRNA for the beta-subunit. The ouabain-resistant ATPase activity, as well as ouabain-resistant Rb+ uptake, of the injected oocytes increased linearly with increasing the amount of cRNA for the ouabain-resistant alpha-subunit. When a functionless mutant was used instead of the ouabain-sensitive alpha-subunit, similar results were obtained in ATPase activity and Rb+ uptake. These results indicate that a monomeric alphabeta protomer is a functional unit of membrane-bound Na,K-ATPase, even if the enzyme exists structurally as a diprotomer or higher oligomers in membranes.

  • Inhibition of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E is effective against chemo-resistance in colon and cervical cancer.

    abstract::Although cancer patients initially respond well to chemotherapy, they eventually develop resistance and relapse. In this work, we demonstrate that eIF4E-targeting therapy is a potential sensitizing strategy for overcoming chemoresistance and progression in cancer. We show that ribavirin, an anti-viral drug and pharmac...
