Data Sheet
Background: Transmembrane Protein 175 (TMEM175) is an organelle-specific potassium channel specifically responsible for potassium conductance in endosomes and lysosomes. TMEM175 is reported to regulate lumenal pH stability and is required for autophagosome-lysosome fusion. TMEM175 comprises a K+ channel that underlies the molecular mechanism of lysosomal K+ permeability
Application: Functional assays
