The Cys127-Cys150 disulfide-bonded loop (L1) of the Torpedo californica Na,K-ATPase beta 1 subunit was substituted with the corresponding loop of the rat beta 1, mouse beta 2, or pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit. All the substituted mutant beta subunits assembled with the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit in a trypsin-resistant manner. The mutants with L1 from the Na,K-ATPase beta subunit isoforms (rat beta 1 and mouse beta 2) each formed a functional complex with the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit. On the other hand, the complex of the alpha subunit with the mutant beta subunit that was substituted with the pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit L1 was inactive as to ATP hydrolysis. Ser131 and Phe148 located within L1 of the pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit-substituted mutant were back-mutated to Pro131 and Arg148, respectively. The Phe148 to Arg mutation restored the ability of the mutant beta subunit substituted with the H,K-ATPase beta subunit L1 to form a functional complex with the alpha subunit. These results suggested that the Cys127-Cys150 loop of the Na,K-ATPase beta 1 subunit, especially Arg148, plays a critical role in the functional expression of Na,K-ATPase.
