ATP6AP2 is a single-pass membrane protein that acts as a V-ATPase accessory component and as the renin/prorenin receptor. Its endomembrane-associated forms support V-ATPase assembly and endolysosomal acidification, which sustain lysosomal degradation and cellular homeostasis. At the cell surface, ATP6AP2 binds renin and prorenin; receptor association enhances renin catalytic efficiency and can activate ERK signaling independently of angiotensin II. ATP6AP2 also connects V-ATPase-dependent acidification to Wnt signaling. Proteolytic processing produces luminal or extracellular and membrane-associated fragments with distinct localization and interaction properties.

These identifiers establish the curated pairs, but do not establish the construct-level evidence or a specific molecular function for ATP6AP2. The individual pair assays remain unverified, so the assertion remains UNDECIDED. |

Reason: Reduction of compartmental pH is the central outcome of the ATP6AP2-supported proton pump. The core synthesis gives the supported lysosomal and endosomal instances; a broader existing annotation need not become peripheral merely because that synthesis is concise. |
| GO:0061795 Golgi lumen acidification | NAS PMID:32001091 Structure and Roles of V-type ATPases. | UNDECIDED | Summary: The cited review cache is abstract-only and does not establish ATP6AP2-specific Golgi lumen acidification. Reason: The cited review cache is abstract-only and does not establish ATP6AP2-specific Golgi lumen acidification. Golgi localization alone does not resolve this compartment-specific functional claim; retain uncertainty rather than reject it. |

Reason: The original TMEM9 paper includes ATP6AP2 interactions and ATP6AP2-dependent cellular Wnt effects. Its ATPase assay uses ATP6AP2-associated complexes while varying TMEM9; it does not justify replacing this binding assertion with standalone ATPase regulation or a new assembly process. |

Reason: The human splice-variant source distinguishes impaired ERK signaling from preserved renin activation. This supports a genuine signaling function in addition to the pump-associated function. Supporting Evidence: PMID:15746149 Functional analysis demonstrated that the mutated receptor could bind renin and increase renin catalytic activity, similar to the wild-type receptor, but resulted in a modest and reproducible impairment of ERK1/2 activation. |
| GO:0002003 angiotensin maturation | IDA PMID:12045255 Pivotal role of the renin/prorenin receptor in angiotensin I... | ACCEPT | Summary: The receptor-bound renin experiments directly support cofactor participation in Ang I generation: ATP6AP2 binds the enzyme and improves apparent catalytic efficiency. Reason: Receptor-associated renin produces Ang I with increased apparent catalytic efficiency in the normalized membrane experiments. This is a measured cofactor contribution to angiotensin maturation; REN performs the cleavage. Neither ATP6AP2 proteolysis nor an increased renin turnover number is asserted. Supporting Evidence: PMID:12045255 The binding of renin induced a fourfold increase of the catalytic efficiency of angiotensinogen conversion to angiotensin I |
| GO:0005515 protein binding | IPI PMID:12045255 Pivotal role of the renin/prorenin receptor in angiotensin I... | MODIFY | Summary: Human ligand-binding and ERK responses support transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Reason: Extracellular renin/prorenin binding to the single-pass receptor is coupled to intracellular ERK activation under angiotensin-pathway blockade. This specific receptor function refines the generic binding assertion. The existing GO:0038023 IEA assertion remains compatible with its more specific child. Proposed replacements: transmembrane signaling receptor activity Supporting Evidence: PMID:12045255 Transfected cells stably expressing the receptor showed renin- and prorenin-specific binding. PMID:12045255 induced an intracellular signal with phosphorylation of serine and tyrosine residues associated to an activation of MAP kinases ERK1 and ERK2. |
| GO:0009897 external side of plasma membrane | IDA PMID:12045255 Pivotal role of the renin/prorenin receptor in angiotensin I... | ACCEPT | Summary: Human receptor-transfected mesangial cells show surface-associated binding and receptor localization, supporting the external plasma-membrane assertion. Reason: Human receptor-transfected mesangial cells show surface-associated binding and receptor localization, supporting the external plasma-membrane assertion. |
| GO:0043408 regulation of MAPK cascade | IDA PMID:12045255 Pivotal role of the renin/prorenin receptor in angiotensin I... | ACCEPT | Summary: Renin triggers receptor-dependent ERK signaling in the original human cells under angiotensin-pathway blockade. Reason: Renin triggers receptor-dependent ERK signaling in the original human cells under angiotensin-pathway blockade. Retain MAPK regulation as the signaling core's process, without calling ATP6AP2 a kinase. Supporting Evidence: PMID:12045255 Transfected cells stably expressing the receptor showed renin- and prorenin-specific binding. PMID:12045255 induced an intracellular signal with phosphorylation of serine and tyrosine residues associated to an activation of MAP kinases ERK1 and ERK2. |

Download this section (compressed HTML)Q: Which ATP6AP2 interactions perform a defined V0 assembly step, and which reflect retention of ATP6AP2 in the assembled pump? Can human reconstitution distinguish these roles?
Q: Which receptor and V-ATPase functions require full-length ATP6AP2, the cleaved membrane fragment, or a specific splice isoform?
Q: How do renin-associated catalytic-efficiency changes and ERK signaling depend on separate ATP6AP2 interfaces?
Experiment: Compare full-length, cleavage-defective, ER-retrieval and interaction-site variants in ATP6AP2-deficient human cells. Measure V0 assembly intermediates, V1 recruitment, ATP hydrolysis and calibrated proton transport separately, controlling for protein abundance and localization.
Hypothesis: ATP6AP2 supports V-ATPase biogenesis through interactions distinct from its mature complex and receptor roles.
Type: rescue and biochemical reconstitution
Experiment: Measure renin binding, angiotensinogen Km and kcat, and ERK phosphorylation side by side for receptor variants with matched surface abundance. Include receptor-negative controls and blockade of angiotensin II signaling.
Hypothesis: ATP6AP2-dependent renin catalytic-efficiency enhancement and ERK signaling can be separated mechanistically.
Type: receptor structure-function analysis
