UniProtKB accession:  P27449

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Proton-conducting pore forming subunit of the V0 complex of vacuolar(H+)-ATPase (V-ATPase), a multisubunit enzyme composed of a peripheral complex (V1) that hydrolyzes ATP and a membrane integral complex (V0) that translocates protons (PubMed:33065002, PubMed:36074901). V-ATPase is responsible for acidifying and maintaining the pH of intracellular compartments, and in some cell types, it is targeted to the plasma membrane, where it is responsible for acidifying the extracellular environment (By similarity).
