Characterization of Mouse <i>Atp6i</i> Gene, the Gene Promoter, and the Gene Expression
1 Jun 2001
Abstract excerpt
Solubilization of bone mineral by osteoclasts depends on the formation of an acidic extracellular compartment through the action of a V-type ATPase. We previously cloned a gene encoding a putative osteoclast-specific proton pump subunit, termed OC-116 kDa, approved mouse Atp6i (ATPase, H+ transporting, [vacuolar proton pump] member I). The function of Atp6i as osteoclast-specific proton pump subunit was confirmed...
