N-terminal tagging of two-pore channels interferes with NAADP action.

چکیده

NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate) is the most potent Ca2+-releasing second messenger known to date. Since its discovery in 1995 identifying the NAADP receptor protein/Ca2+ channel has been a major persuit of the Ca2+ signalling community. In their paper 'The N-terminal region of two-pore channel 1 regulates trafficking and activation by NAADP' published in this issue of the Biochemical Journal Patel and colleagues describe that the N-terminus of one of the NAADP receptor protein/Ca2+ channel candidates, TPC1 (two-pore channel 1), is crucial for protein targeting and for sensitivity to NAADP.

The N-terminal region of two-pore channel 1 regulates trafficking and activation by NAADP.

TPCs (two-pore channels) are NAADP (nicotinic acid-adenine dinucleotide phosphate)-sensitive Ca2+-permeable ion channels expressed on acidic organelles. In the present study we show that deletion of the N-terminal region redirects TPC1 to the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). The introduction of fluorophores at the N-terminus of TPC1 does not affect its subcellular location, but does reversibly aboli...

Membrane Topology of NAADP-sensitive Two-pore Channels and Their Regulation by N-linked Glycosylation*

Two-pore channels (TPCs) localize to the endolysosomal system and have recently emerged as targets for the Ca(2+)-mobilizing messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). However, their membrane topology is unknown. Using fluorescence protease protection assays, we show that human TPC1 and TPC2 possess cytosolic N and C termini and therefore an even number of transmembrane r...

Essential requirement for two-pore channel 1 in NAADP-mediated calcium signaling

Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a widespread and potent calcium-mobilizing messenger that is highly unusual in activating calcium channels located on acidic stores. However, the molecular identity of the target protein is unclear. In this study, we show that the previously uncharacterized human two-pore channels (TPC1 and TPC2) are endolysosomal proteins, that NAADP-med...

TPCs: Endolysosomal channels for Ca2+ mobilization from acidic organelles triggered by NAADP.

Two-pore channels (TPCs or TPCNs) are novel members of the large superfamily of voltage-gated cation channels with slightly higher sequence homology to the pore-forming subunits of voltage-gated Ca(2+) and Na(+) channels than most other members. Recent studies demonstrate that TPCs locate to endosomes and lysosomes and form Ca(2+) release channels that respond to activation by the Ca(2+) mobili...

An NAADP-gated Two-pore Channel Targeted to the Plasma Membrane Uncouples Triggering from Amplifying Ca2+ Signals*

Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a ubiquitous messenger proposed to stimulate Ca(2+) release from acidic organelles via two-pore channels (TPCs). It has been difficult to resolve this trigger event from its amplification via endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) stores, fuelling speculation that archetypal intracellular Ca(2+) channels are the primary targets of NAADP. Here, we r...
