NaKATPase


 

Na+/K+-ATPase (also known as the Na+/K+ pump or Na+/K+ exchanger) is an enzyme ({{EC number|3.6.3.9}}) located in the plasma membrane (specifically an electrogenic transmembrane ATPase). It is found in the plasma membrane of virtually every human cell and is common to all cellular life. It helps maintain cell potential and regulate cellular volume.
