Also known as FLJ39630
Summary
NKAIN3 (sodium/potassium transporting ATPase interacting 3, HGNC:26829) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q12.3, encoding Sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase subunit beta-1-interacting protein 3 (Q8N8D7).
NKAIN3 is a member of a family of mammalian proteins (see NKAIN1; MIM 612871) with similarity to Drosophila Nkain (Gorokhova et al., 2007 [PubMed 17606467]).
