Disease

TM175_HUMAN Disease susceptibility may be associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry. TMEM175 defects result in unstable lysosomal pH, leading to decreased lysosomal catalytic activity, decreased glucocerebrosidase activity, impaired autophagosome clearance by the lysosome and decreased mitochondrial respiration (PubMed:28193887).[1]

Function

TM175_HUMAN Organelle-specific potassium channel specifically responsible for potassium conductance in endosomes and lysosomes. Forms a potassium-permeable leak-like channel, which regulates lumenal pH stability and is required for autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Constitutes the major lysosomal potassium channel.[2] [3]
