Vacuolar type H+-ATPase(V-ATPase)는 세포막의 트랜스포터(transporter)로서 수소이온(H+ ion)을 세포 내로 유입하여 세포 내 pH를 산성으로 유지를 하는 작용을 하며 세포 내 환경의 항상성을 유지하는 역할을 하는 단백질이다.Vacuolar type H + -ATPase (V- ATPase) has to flow into a hydrogen ion (H + ion) cell is used as a transporter (transporter) of the cell membrane and the function of the intracellular pH at which the sustain acidified maintain homeostasis of the environmental cell It is a protein that plays a role.
V-ATPase 단백질은 위치하는 조직에 따라서 아이소폼(isoform)이 있으나 기본적으로 V0 및 V1 의 두 가지 다른 기능성 도메인(functional domain)로 구성된다. V0 도메인은 원형질막(plasma membrane)에 존재하며 V1 도메인은 세포질(cytoplasm)에 존재한다. V0 도메인은 H ion이 translocation 되는 부분으로 c, d, e의 3가지 서브유닛(subunit)으로 구성되어 있다. V1 도메인은 A3, B3, C, D, E2, F, G2, H의 8가지 서브유닛(subunit)으로 구성이 된다. ATP가 결합(binding)되는 부위는 A3B3로서 이 부위에서 ATP의 분해(hydrolysis)가 발생되는 것으로 알려져 있다.The V-ATPase protein has isoforms depending on the tissue in which it is located, but basically consists of two different functional domains, VO and V1. The V0 domain is present in the plasma membrane and the V1 domain is present in the cytoplasm. The V0 domain is the portion where H ions are translocated and is composed of three subunits of c, d, and e. The V1 domain consists of eight subunits of A3, B3, C, D, E2, F, G2, H. The site where ATP binds is A3B3, which is known to cause hydrolysis of ATP.
V-ATPase의 세포 내에서 가장 기본적인 역할은 엔도솜(endosome), 라이소좀(lysosome) 등에서 세포 내 전달된 물질을 처리(process or degradation)할 수 있는 최적의 산성 pH를 유지하도록 하는 양성자 펌프(proton pumping) 역할을 한다. 그러나, 각 subunit의 구체적인 역할이나 그 활용에 대한 연구는 아직 명확하지 않다.The most basic role of V-ATPase in cells is to provide a proton pump that maintains an optimal acidic pH to process or degrade intracellular delivery of endosome and lysosomes. pumping) role. However, the research on the specific role of each subunit and its use is not yet clear.
