It is expressed in various tissues but particularly notable in the brain. Mechanically VAC14 works with FIG4 and PIKFYVE in a complex that regulates the levels of phosphatidylinositol 35-bisphosphate (PI(35)P2) in cells. It interacts directly with PIKFYVE to control its kinase activity which is important for maintaining the balance of phosphoinositides.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nVAC14 takes an important role in phosphoinositide metabolism and is part of the PIKfyve complex which consists of PIKFYVE and FIG4. This complex regulates the synthesis of PI(35)P2 a lipid second messenger involved in various cellular processes. Through this regulation VAC14 influences membrane trafficking endosome-to-lysosome transport and lysosomal homeostasis. Proper functioning of VAC14 is essential for cellular integrity and response to environmental changes especially in neuronal cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nVAC14 involves itself in the phosphoinositide signaling pathway and the lysosomal pathway. This protein forms a module with PIKFYVE and FIG4 to control the production of PI(35)P2 which is important for endolysosomal dynamics. VAC14’s activity influences autophagic flux and endosomal maturation processes integral to cellular homeostasis. The modulation of these pathways ensures proper intracellular processing and material degradation which is linked to cellular health and stress responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nVAC14 has associations with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and fibrotic lung disease. Mutations affecting VAC14 can lead to the malformation of neuronal axons and defects in both motor and sensory neurons in CMT. In these diseases VAC14 interacts with FIG4 where mutations in either protein can disrupt PI(35)P2 levels leading to neuropathy. Understanding the role of VAC14 in these contexts opens avenues for targeted therapeutic interventions in related neurological and fibrotic disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845178937513,"sku":"ab258756","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab258756","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
