ATP5O: Proteins and Enzymes

ATP5O is a 213 amino acid F-type ATPase protein that is involved in producing ATP from ADP in the mitochondrial membrane when a proton gradient has been established across the membrane through the movement of charges across an electron transport complex in the respiratory chain. Current research is being performed on several diseases and disorders including graves disease, hashimotos thyroiditis, hypothyroidism, autoimmunity, goiter, diabetes mellitus, Huntington's disease, stomach cancer, osteoporosis, Parkinsons, twinning, osteosarcoma, hepatitis, and malaria. This protein has also been shown to have interactions with ATP5A1, ATP5B, ATP5D, IKBKG, and MPG in pathways such as the oxidative phosphorylation, metabolic, citric acid cycle (TCA), and Alzheimer's pathways.
