    The primary structure of the putative regulatory region of a gene of the Na+,K+-ATPase multigene family in the human genome has been determined. This region includes the first exon with all of the untranslatable sequence of mRNA and a dozen nucleotides, coding for the first four amino acids of the hypothetic precursor of the alpha+-subunit. The entire region comprises over 1400 bp. The possible role of specific nucleotide blocks within this region in comparison with other genes is discussed.
