| Description | This family consists of the 116kDa V-type ATPase (vacuolar (H+)-ATPases) subunits, as well as V-type ATP synthase subunit i. The V-type ATPases family are proton pumps that acidify intracellular compartments in eukaryotic cells for example yeast central vacuoles, clathrin-coated and synaptic vesicles. They have important roles in membrane trafficking processes [1]. The 116kDa subunit (subunit a) in the V-type ATPase is part of the V0 functional domain responsible for proton transport. The a subunit is a transmembrane glycoprotein with multiple putative transmembrane helices it has a hydrophilic amino terminal and a hydrophobic carboxy terminal [1,2]. It has roles in proton transport and assembly of the V-type ATPase complex [1,2]. This subunit is encoded by two homologous gene in yeast VPH1 and STV1 [2]. |
