ATP1A3

Chr 19AD

ATPase Na+/K+ transporting subunit alpha 3

Neuron-specific alpha catalytic component of the Na(+)/K(+)-transporting ATPase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the exchange of Na(+) and K(+) ions across the plasma membrane (PubMed:36075933). Transports 3 Na(+) ions out of the cell and 2 K(+) ions into the cell for each ATP hydrolyze against their electrochemical gradients to maintain ion concentration gradients across the membranes (By similarity). In the brain, ATP1A3 is critical for neuronal cell signaling and for maintenance of electrochemical stability, enabling cell excitation and action potential propagation (PubMed:33880529, PubMed:36075933)

This gene has evidence for multiple mechanisms of pathogenicity (gain-of-function and loss-of-function). Both the Badonyi & Marsh prediction and the broader genomic evidence point to gain-of-function as the predominant mechanism. Different variants in this gene may act through different mechanisms — interpret in context of the specific variant.

Note: In-silico variant effect predictors (SIFT, PolyPhen, REVEL, CADD) may underestimate pathogenicity of missense variants in genes with GOF or DN mechanisms. Consider functional evidence and clinical context.
