Homology modeling and valence mapping have been used to predict the location and structure of Na+ and K+ binding sites in the Na+-K+-ATPase on the basis of the known atomic resolution structure of SERCA. Additional sites are predicted that may be associated with intracellular access and extracellular egress pathways for Na+. The model predictions are in excellent agreement with previous structure-function and electrical studies.
