ATP8A2: Proteins and Enzymes

ATP8A2 is a gene that codes for a protein that is 1148 amino acids long with a weight of approximately 129 kDa that has a shorter isoform that is 528 amino acids long and weighs approximately 59 kDa. Current studies are being done on several disorders and diseases related to this gene including influenza, epiglottitis, poliomyelitis, laryngitis, meningitis, diphtheria, tetanus, liver disease, pertussis, pharyngitis, and malaria. ATP8A2 has also been shown to have interactions with UIMC1, TMEM30A, and TMEM30B in pathways such as the ion channel transport and small molecule transmembrance transport pathways.
