Description

ATP5PD encodes the d subunit of mitochondrial ATP synthase (Complex V), which is part of the peripheral stalk connecting the F1 catalytic core to the Fo membrane domain. This subunit is essential for the structural integrity and rotational catalysis of the enzyme, driving ATP synthesis from ADP and inorganic phosphate using the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.245G>A (p.Arg82Gln) Missense <0.01% Reduced ATP synthase activity; associated with mitochondrial complex V deficiency
c.346C>T (p.Arg116Trp) Missense <0.01% Impaired assembly of peripheral stalk; reported in Leigh syndrome
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Missense mutations (e.g., p.Arg82Gln) disrupt subunit d folding and integration into Complex V, reducing ATP synthesis.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported for ATP5PD.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Heterozygous mutations may interfere with complex assembly, but dominant-negative effects are not well established.

Protein Summary

ATP5PD encodes the d subunit of mitochondrial ATP synthase, a 161-amino-acid protein (18.5 kDa) localized to the inner mitochondrial membrane. The peripheral stalk subunit d is critical for coupling proton flow through Fo to rotational catalysis in F1. Loss of function leads to mitochondrial energy failure, manifesting as encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, and developmental delay.
