Atpase, H,k, Beta (ATP6V1B1) Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

This gene encodes a component of vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase), a multisubunit enzyme that mediates acidification of eukaryotic intracellular organelles. V-ATPase dependent organelle acidification is necessary for such intracellular processes as protein sorting, zymogen activation, receptor-mediated endocytosis, and synaptic vesicle proton gradient generation. V-ATPase is composed of a cytosolic V1 domain and a transmembrane V0 domain. The V1 domain consists of three A and three B subunits, two G subunits plus the C, D, E, F, and H subunits. The V1 domain contains the ATP catalytic site. The V0 domain consists of five different subunits: a, c, c', c'', and d. Additional isoforms of many of the V1 and V0 subunit proteins are encoded by multiple genes or alternatively spliced transcript variants. This encoded protein is one of two V1 domain B subunit isoforms and is found in the kidney. Mutations in this gene cause distal renal tubular acidosis associated with sensorineural deafness.

ATP6V1B1: Non-catalytic subunit of the peripheral V1 complex of vacuolar ATPase. V-ATPase is responsible for acidifying a variety of intracellular compartments in eukaryotic cells. Defects in ATP6V1B1 are the cause of distal renal tubular acidosis with deafness (dRTA-D). Inheritance is autosomal recessive. Patients with recessive dRTA are severely affected, presenting with either acute illness or growth failure at a young age, and bilateral sensorineural deafness. Other features include low serum K(+) due to renal potassium wasting, and elevated urinary calcium. If untreated, this acidosis may result in dissolution of bone, leading to osteomalacia and rickets. Renal deposition of calcium salts (nephrocalcinosis) and renal stone formation commonly occur. Belongs to the ATPase alpha/beta chains family.
