description: ATP6V1E1 encodes the E1 subunit (26 kDa) of the V1 peripheral sector of
  the vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase). Subunit E, together with subunit G, forms the
  three peripheral stalks of V1 that hold the catalytic head fixed against the torque of
  the rotating central rotor during ATP hydrolysis, enabling coupled proton translocation
  across organelle membranes. The V-ATPase is the primary driver of organellar acidification
  in eukaryotes, with key roles in lysosomal, endosomal, and Golgi pH homeostasis. In
  the kidney, ATP6V1E1 localizes to the apical membrane of cells in the thick ascending
  limb and distal convoluted tubule, where V-ATPase contributes to renal acid-base
  regulation. ATP6V1E1 binds aldolase (ALDOC), providing a potential coupling mechanism
  between glycolytic ATP supply and V-ATPase activity. Loss-of-function variants in
  ATP6V1E1 cause autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 2C (ARCL2C), a connective tissue
  disorder with skin laxity, hypotonia, and cardiovascular involvement, reflecting the
  ubiquitous importance of V-ATPase activity. The protein is expressed ubiquitously, with
  high levels in skin, and exists in three alternatively spliced isoforms.

core_functions:
- description: Peripheral stalk (EG heterodimer) component of the V1 sector of the
    vacuolar-type H+-ATPase. Forms three EG heterodimers that serve as the stator,
    keeping the catalytic A3B3 hexamer fixed against the torque generated during ATP
    hydrolysis-driven rotation of the central DF rotor. Essential for proton pumping
    into lysosomes, endosomes, Golgi, and other organelles.
