Vacuolar H+-ATPase in Drosophila melanogaster

The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a rotary proton pump that acidifies lysosomes, endosomes, the Golgi and secretory vesicles, and in specialized epithelia such as the Malpighian tubules and midgut energizes the plasma membrane for transport. The cytosolic V1 domain hydrolyses ATP at three catalytic sites in an A3B3 hexamer, and the central rotor (subunits D, F and d) transmits rotation to a ring of proteolipid c subunits in the membrane V0 domain. The V0 a subunit provides the proton path together with the c ring, and peripheral stalks of E and G subunits, with C and H, hold the stator. Reversible dissociation of V1 from V0 regulates activity. In Drosophila many subunits are encoded by paralogous genes, some with tissue- or testis-restricted expression, and the accessory proteins Ac45 and ATP6AP2 associate with V0.

Decomposition. Subunits are grouped by domain and by subunit type; each gene is its own annoton because paralogs of one subunit type are alternatives rather than co-subunits, and which paralogs assemble together in which tissue is not mapped. Subunit-type assignments follow the UniProt protein names. CG5421 is placed with the accessory subunits as in FlyBase; its function is not characterized. The proton-pumping activity belongs to the assembled complex; only ATP hydrolysis is attached to the catalytic A subunits. FlyBase groups realized by this module: VHA (FBgg0000111). Subgroups folded into it: VHA-ACS, VHA-V1, VHA-V0, VHA-V1-CAT, VHA-V1-NONCAT. Participants were generated from the FlyBase gene-group membership and mapped to UniProtKB by projects/FLYBASE_GENE_GROUPS/generate_modules.py from module_specs/dmel_vacuolar_atpase.yaml. None of the member genes has a gene review in this repository yet.
