Function
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 . Constitutes the pore-forming subunit of the lysoK(GF) complex, a complex activated by extracellular growth factors . The lysoK(GF) complex is composed of TMEM175 and AKT (AKT1, AKT2 or AKT3), a major target of growth factor receptors: in the complex, TMEM175 channel is opened by conformational changes by AKT, leading to its activation . The lysoK(GF) complex is required to protect neurons against stress-induced damage .
