TCIRG1 T cell immune regulator 1, ATPase H+ transporting V0 subunit a3

Gene ID: 10312, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: a3; Stv1; Vph1; Atp6i; OC116; OPTB1; TIRC7; ATP6N1C; ATP6V0A3; OC-116kDa

Summary

This gene encodes a subunit of a large protein complex known as a vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase). The protein complex acts as a pump to move protons across the membrane. This movement of protons helps regulate the pH of cells and their surrounding environment. V-ATPase dependent organelle acidification is necessary for such intracellular processes as protein sorting, zymogen activation, and receptor-mediated endocytosis. V-ATPase is comprised of a cytosolic V1 domain and a transmembrane V0 domain. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Mutations in this gene are associated with infantile malignant osteopetrosis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
