From the Vacuolar H+-ATPases
(V-ATPases), a family of multimeric proton pumps, are involved in a
wide variety of physiological processes. We have identified two mouse
genes, Atp6g1 and Atp6g2, encoding the
G1 and G2 isoforms of the V-ATPase
G subunit, respectively. G1 was
distributed ubiquitously in the tissues examined, whereas G2 was specifically distributed in central nervous system
neurons. G1 was expressed at an early embryonic stage,
whereas G2 transcription was significantly induced at 10.5 days postcoitus (embryonic day 10.5, i.e. 2 days before
axon outgrowth). Both G1 and G2 were strongly
expressed in cortical and hippocampal neurons, cerebellar granule
cells, and Purkinje cells. Immunohistochemistry with isoform-specific antibodies revealed that G2 was localized in cell bodies,
dendrites, and axons. In addition, electron microscopy and subcellular
fractionation indicated that G2 was localized in synaptic
vesicles, whereas G1 was not detectable.
G1 and G2 exhibit 62% identity, and both isoforms were immunoprecipitated with the c and
A subunits of V-ATPase. G2 could complement the
yeast deletion mutant

vma10, which lacks the
G subunit. The V-ATPases containing the G1 and G2 isoforms, respectively, showed similar
Km(ATP) values and maximal velocity.
These results indicate that G1 and G2 are bona fide subunits of V-ATPases and that the enzyme with
the G2 isoform is involved in synaptic vesicle acidification.
