Function
Proton-activated proton channel that catalyzes proton efflux from endosomes and lysosomes to maintain a steady-state pH (PubMed:35333573, PubMed:35750034, PubMed:37390818). Activated at low pH (under pH 4.6) by luminal side protons: selectively mediates lysosomal proton release from lysosomes, eliciting a proton leak that balances V-ATPase activity to maintain pH homeostasis (PubMed:35750034). Regulation of lumenal pH stability is required for autophagosome-lysosome fusion (PubMed:26317472, PubMed:32267231). Also acts as a potassium channel at higher pH, regulating potassium conductance in endosomes and lysosomes (PubMed:26317472, PubMed:28723891, PubMed:32228865, PubMed:32267231, PubMed:33505021). Constitutes the pore-forming subunit of the lysoK(GF) complex, a complex activated by extracellular growth factors (PubMed:33505021). The lysoK(GF) complex is composed of TMEM175 and AKT (AKT1, AKT2 or AKT3), a major target of growth factor receptors: in the complex, TMEM175 channel is opened by conformational changes by AKT, leading to its activation (PubMed:33505021). The lysoK(GF) complex is required to protect neurons against stress-induced damage (PubMed:33505021).

Notes
Human TMEM175 Antibody Pair - BSA and Azide free (ab309570) is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify human TMEM175 in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:
- Sandwich ELISA
- FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF
- Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)
- Bead-based assays
- AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®
- DELFIA® immunoassays
- Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
- Multiplex
Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:
- Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
- Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.
We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.
Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.
Please note:
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.
The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.
We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

- Activity summary
TMEM175 also known as Transmembrane Protein 175 is a channel protein with dual function as a lysosomal potassium channel. It has an approximate mass of 66 kDa. TMEM175 plays a role in ion homeostasis and is expressed mainly in tissues with high levels of lysosomes including the brain and the immune system. This protein aids in the maintenance of the lysosomal environment important for cellular activities.
- Biological function summary
This lysosomal protein contributes to the maintenance of ion stability within lysosomes an important factor in lysosomal degradation and overall cellular clearance processes. TMEM175 is an integral component of the lysosomal membrane and participates in ensuring lysosomal pH stability therefore influencing autophagic activity. TMEM175 does not participate in known protein complexes but it is pivotal for preserving lysosomal integrity.
- Pathways
TMEM175 actively engages in the lysosomal degradation pathway impacting cellular waste processing. TMEM175 influences endolysosomal trafficking and autophagy which are essential for metabolite recycling. It works alongside proteins like ATPase and lysosomal enzyme hydrolases by controlling ion concentrations which can influence other lysosomal functions and pathways.
- Associated diseases and disorders
TMEM175 has a significant connection with neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson's disease. Mutation or dysfunction in TMEM175 impacts lysosomal function linked to protein aggregation often involving alpha-synuclein which serves as a hallmark for such neurodegenerative diseases. Additionally TMEM175 is implicated in lysosomal storage disorders where impaired lysosomal function results in cellular accumulation of substances due to ineffective degradation.
