ATP11C mutation is responsible for the defect in phosphatidylserine uptake in UPS-1 cells
Journal of Lipid Research, 2015 Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) translocate phospholipids from the exoplasmic to the cytoplasmic leaflets of cellular membranes. We and others previously showed that ATP11C, a member of the P4-ATPases, translocates phosphatidylserine (PS) at the ...

Clathrin coat controls synaptic vesicle acidification by blocking vacuolar ATPase activity
eLife, 2018 Newly-formed synaptic vesicles (SVs) are rapidly acidified by vacuolar adenosine triphosphatases (vATPases), generating a proton electrochemical gradient that drives neurotransmitter loading.
