HUNTINGTON, W.Va., June 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --New findings offer the first genetic evidence that the sodium pump is essential for animal organ development, according to a study led by Marshall University scientists that involves the scaffolding, or signaling, function of the sodium pump.

Key Points: 
  • HUNTINGTON, W.Va., June 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --New findings offer the first genetic evidence that the sodium pump is essential for animal organ development, according to a study led by Marshall University scientists that involves the scaffolding, or signaling, function of the sodium pump.
  • The research, published May 27 in Science Advances , indicates that a gene sequence in the sodium pump, also known as Na/K-ATPase, is critical to embryonic development in animals.
  • The short sequence of DNA identified in the study is nearly identical in worms, fish, chickens, birds or mammals, including humans.
  • The sequence, called the caveolin binding motif, is required for the sodium pump to be a receptor.
