Rabbit Anti-ATP6V1G2/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene encodes a component of vacuolar ATPase (SLVATPase), a multisubunit enzyme that mediates acidification of intracellular compartments of eukaryotic cells. SLVATPase dependent acidification is necessary for such intracellular processes as protein sorting, zymogen activation, receptor-mediated endocytosis, and synaptic vesicle proton gradient generation. SLVATPase is composed of a cytosolic V1 domain and a transmembrane V0 domain. The V1 domain consists of three A and three B subunits, two G subunits plus the C, D, E, F, and H subunits. The V1 domain contains the ATP catalytic site. The V0 domain consists of five different subunits: a, c, c', c'', and d. Additional isoforms of many of the V1 and V0 subunit proteins are encoded by multiple genes or alternatively spliced transcript variants. This encoded protein is one of three V1 domain G subunit proteins. This gene had previous gene symbols of ATP6G and ATP6G2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the downstream DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 39B (DDX39B) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
Function:
Catalytic subunit of the peripheral V1 complex of vacuolar ATPase (SLVATPase). SLVATPase is responsible for acidifying a variety of intracellular compartments in eukaryotic cells.
Subunit:
SLVATPase is a heteromultimeric enzyme composed of a peripheral catalytic V1 complex (components A to H) attached to an integral membrane V0 proton pore complex (components: a, c, c', c'' and d).
Subcellular Location:
Melanosome. Note=Highly enriched in late-stage melanosomes.
Tissue Specificity:
Brain.
Similarity:
Belongs to the SLVATPase G subunit family.
