Activity summary

ATP5H also known as ATP synthase subunit d is a component of the ATP synthase complex an important enzyme found in the mitochondria. It weighs approximately 18.4 kDa. This protein is part of the F1F0 ATP synthase complex specifically the F0 domain. ATP5H is highly expressed in tissues with high energy demand such as skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle indicating its important role in the cellular energy production.

Biological function summary

ATP5H facilitates the production of ATP the energy currency of the cell. It is essential in the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate driven by a proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane. ATP5H is integral to the structure of the F1F0 ATP synthase complex ensuring efficient proton translocation and ATP synthesis. This subunit is critical for the overall function and stability of the ATP synthase complex.

Pathways

ATP5H plays a role in oxidative phosphorylation and energy metabolism pathways. This protein interacts closely with other ATP synthase subunits including ATP5B and ATP5O orchestrating the conversion of energy derived from nutrients to ATP. The oxidative phosphorylation pathway is central to energy production in eukaryotic cells and ATP5H forms an essential link in this process.

Associated diseases and disorders

ATP5H is implicated in mitochondrial dysfunctions and related conditions such as mitochondrial myopathies. Alterations or deficiencies in ATP5H can disrupt ATP production potentially leading to neuromuscular disorders. Additionally connections to ATP5A1 another subunit of ATP synthase are noted. Dysregulation in these interactions can provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of these diseases providing potential therapeutic targets.
