Atypical phenotypes and novel OCRL variations in southern Chinese patients with Lowe syndrome. Pediatr Nephrol 2024; 39:2377-2391. [PMID: 38589698 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-024-06356-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lowe syndrome is characterized by the presence of congenital cataracts, psychomotor retardation, and dysfunctional proximal renal tubules. This study presents a case of an atypical phenotype, investigates the genetic characteristics of eight children diagnosed with Lowe syndrome in southern China, and performs functional analysis of the novel variants. METHODS Whole-exome sequencing was conducted on eight individuals diagnosed with Lowe syndrome from three medical institutions in southern China. Retrospective collection and analysis of clinical and genetic data were performed, and functional analysis was conducted on the five novel variants. RESULTS In our cohort, the clinical symptoms of the eight Lowe syndrome individuals varied. One patient was diagnosed with Lowe syndrome but did not present with congenital cataracts. Common features among all patients included cognitive impairment, short stature, and low molecular weight proteinuria. Eight variations in the OCRL gene were identified, encompassing three previously reported and five novel variations. Among the novel variations, three nonsense mutations were determined to be pathogenic, and two patients harboring novel missense variations of uncertain significance exhibited severe typical phenotypes. Furthermore, all novel variants were associated with altered protein expression levels and impacted primary cilia formation. CONCLUSION This study describes the first case of an atypical Lowe syndrome patient without congenital cataracts in China and performs a functional analysis of novel variants in the OCRL gene, thereby expanding the understanding of the clinical manifestations and genetic diversity associated with Lowe syndrome.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome, a rare X-linked multisystem disorder presenting with major abnormalities in the eyes, kidneys, and central nervous system, is caused by mutations in OCRL gene (NG_008638.1). Encoding an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase, OCRL catalyzes the hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P2 into PI4P. There are no effective targeted treatments for Lowe syndrome. Here, we demonstrate a novel gene therapy for Lowe syndrome in patient fibroblasts using an adenine base editor (ABE) that can efficiently correct pathogenic point mutations. We show that ABE8e-NG-based correction of a disease-causing mutation in a Lowe patient-derived fibroblast line containing R844X mutation in OCRL gene, restores OCRL expression at mRNA and protein levels. It also restores cellular abnormalities that are hallmarks of OCRL dysfunction, including defects in ciliogenesis, microtubule anchoring, α-actinin distribution, and F-actin network. The study indicates that ABE-mediated gene therapy is a feasible treatment for Lowe syndrome, laying the foundation for therapeutic application of ABE in the currently incurable disease.

Abstract
A recent large genome-wide association study has identified EGFR (encoding the epidermal growth factor EGFR) as a new genetic risk factor for late-onset AD. SHIP2, encoded by INPPL1, is taking part in the signalling and interactome of several growth factor receptors, such as the EGFR. While INPPL1 has been identified as one of the most significant genes whose RNA expression correlates with cognitive decline, the potential alteration of SHIP2 expression and localization during the progression of AD remains largely unknown. Here we report that gene expression of both EGFR and INPPL1 was upregulated in AD brains. SHIP2 immunoreactivity was predominantly detected in plaque-associated astrocytes and dystrophic neurites and its increase was correlated with amyloid load in the brain of human AD and of 5xFAD transgenic mouse model of AD. While mRNA of INPPL1 was increased in AD, SHIP2 protein undergoes a significant solubility change being depleted from the soluble fraction of AD brain homogenates and co-enriched with EGFR in the insoluble fraction. Using FRET-based flow cytometry biosensor assay for tau-tau interaction, overexpression of SHIP2 significantly increased the FRET signal while siRNA-mediated downexpression of SHIP2 significantly decreased FRET signal. Genetic association analyses suggest that some variants in INPPL1 locus are associated with the level of CSF pTau. Our data support the hypothesis that SHIP2 is an intermediate key player of EGFR and AD pathology linking amyloid and tau pathologies in human AD.

[PMID: 38428097 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2024.108201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lysosomes serve as regulatory hubs, and play a pivotal role in human diseases. However, the precise functions and mechanisms of action of lysosome-related genes remain unclear in preeclampsia and cancers. This study aimed to identify lysosome-related biomarkers in preeclampsia, and further explore the biomarkers shared between preeclampsia and cancers. MATERIALS AND METHODS We obtained GSE60438 and GSE75010 datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, pre-procesed them and merged them into a training cohort. The limma package in R was used to identify the differentially expressed mRNAs between the preeclampsia and normal control groups. Differentially expressed lysosome-related genes were identified by intersecting the differentially expressed mRNAs and lysosome-related genes obtained from Gene Ontology and GSEA databases. Gene Ontology annotations and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis were performed using the DAVID database. The CIBERSORT method was used to analyze immune cell infiltration. Weighted gene co-expression analyses and three machine learning algorithm were used to identify lysosome-related diagnostic biomarkers. Lysosome-related diagnostic biomarkers were further validated in the testing cohort GSE25906. Nomogram diagnostic models for preeclampsia were constructed. In addition, pan-cancer analysis of lysosome-related diagnostic biomarkers were identified by was performed using the TIMER, Sangebox and TISIDB databases. Finally, the Drug-Gene Interaction, TheMarker and DSigDB Databases were used for drug-gene interactions analysis. RESULTS A total of 11 differentially expressed lysosome-related genes were identified between the preeclampsia and control groups. Three molecular clusters connected to lysosome were identified, and enrichment analysis demonstrated their strong relevance to the development and progression of preeclampsia. Immune infiltration analysis revealed significant immunity heterogeneity among different clusters. GBA, OCRL, TLR7 and HEXB were identified as lysosome-related diagnostic biomarkers with high AUC values, and validated in the testing cohort GSE25906. Nomogram, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis confirmed the accuracy of predicting the occurrence of preeclampsia based on OCRL and HEXB. Pan-cancer analysis showed that GBA, OCRL, TLR7 and HEXB were associated with the prognosis of patients with various tumors and tumor immune cell infiltration. Twelve drugs were identified as potential drugs for the treatment of preeclampsia and cancers. CONCLUSION This study identified GBA, OCRL, TLR7 and HEXB as potential lysosome-related diagnostic biomarkers shared between preeclampsia and cancers.

Abstract
Lipid signaling is defined as any biological signaling action in which a lipid messenger binds to a protein target, converting its effects to specific cellular responses. In this complex biological pathway, the family of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) represents a pivotal role and affects many aspects of cellular biology from cell survival, proliferation, and migration to endocytosis, intracellular trafficking, metabolism, and autophagy. While yeasts have a single isoform of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), mammals possess eight PI3K types divided into three classes. The class I PI3Ks have set the stage to widen research interest in the field of cancer biology. The aberrant activation of class I PI3Ks has been identified in 30-50% of human tumors, and activating mutations in PIK3CA is one of the most frequent oncogenes in human cancer. In addition to indirect participation in cell signaling, class II and III PI3Ks primarily regulate vesicle trafficking. Class III PI3Ks are also responsible for autophagosome formation and autophagy flux. The current review aims to discuss the original data obtained from international research laboratories on the latest discoveries regarding PI3Ks-mediated cell biological processes. Also, we unravel the mechanisms by which pools of the same phosphoinositides (PIs) derived from different PI3K types act differently.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lowe syndrome (LS) is an X linked disease caused by pathogenic variants in the OCRL gene that impacts approximately 1 in 500 000 children. Classic features include congenital cataract, cognitive/behavioural impairment and renal tubulopathy. METHODS This study is a retrospective review of clinical features reported by family based survey conducted by Lowe Syndrome Association. Frequency of non-ocular clinical feature(s) of LS and their age of onset was summarised. An LS-specific therapy effectiveness scale was used to assess the response to the administered treatment. Expression of OCRL and relevant neuropeptides was measured in postmortem human brain by qPCR. Gene expression in the mouse brain was determined by reanalysis of publicly available bulk and single cell RNA sequencing. RESULTS A total of 137 individuals (1 female, 89.1% white, median age 14 years (range 0.8-56)) were included in the study. Short stature (height <3rd percentile) was noted in 81% (n=111) individuals, and 15% (n=20) received growth hormone therapy. Undescended testis was reported in 47% (n=64), and median age of onset of puberty was 15 years. Additional features were dental problems (n=77, 56%), bone fractures (n=63, 46%), hypophosphataemia (n=60, 44%), developmental delay and behavioural issues. OCRL is expressed in human and mouse hypothalami, and in hypothalamic cell clusters expressing Ghrh, Sst, Oxt, Pomc and pituitary cells expressing Gh and Prl. CONCLUSIONS There is a wide spectrum of the clinical phenotype of LS. Some of the features may be partly driven by the loss of function of OCRL in the hypothalamus and the pituitary.

Abstract
Autophagy is a cellular degradation pathway essential for neuronal health and function. Autophagosome biogenesis occurs at synapses, is locally regulated, and increases in response to neuronal activity. The mechanisms that couple autophagosome biogenesis to synaptic activity remain unknown. In this study, we determine that trafficking of ATG-9, the only transmembrane protein in the core autophagy pathway, links the synaptic vesicle cycle with autophagy. ATG-9-positive vesicles in C. elegans are generated from the trans-Golgi network via AP-3-dependent budding and delivered to presynaptic sites. At presynaptic sites, ATG-9 undergoes exo-endocytosis in an activity-dependent manner. Mutations that disrupt endocytosis, including a lesion in synaptojanin 1 associated with Parkinson's disease, result in abnormal ATG-9 accumulation at clathrin-rich synaptic foci and defects in activity-induced presynaptic autophagy. Our findings uncover regulated key steps of ATG-9 trafficking at presynaptic sites and provide evidence that ATG-9 exo-endocytosis couples autophagosome biogenesis at presynaptic sites with the activity-dependent synaptic vesicle cycle.

Stochasticity and positive feedback enable enzyme kinetics at the membrane to sense reaction size. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2021; 118:2103626118.

Abstract
Cellular membranes span a wide range of spatial dimensions, from the plasma membrane with a scale of microns to vesicles on the nanometer scale. The work presented here identifies a molecular mechanism, based on common features of cellular signaling enzymes, that causes the average enzymatic catalytic rate to exhibit reaction size dependency. This effect stems from stochastic variation, but the final results can be essentially deterministic. In competitive enzymatic reaction cycles, the final product can depend on the size of the reaction system. The simplicity of the mechanism suggests that size-dependent reaction rates may be widespread among signaling enzymes and thus enable reaction size to be an important factor in signal regulation at the membrane. Here, we present detailed kinetic analyses of a panel of soluble lipid kinases and phosphatases, as well as Ras activating proteins, acting on their respective membrane surface substrates. The results reveal that the mean catalytic rate of such interfacial enzymes can exhibit a strong dependence on the size of the reaction system—in this case membrane area. Experimental measurements and kinetic modeling reveal how stochastic effects stemming from low molecular copy numbers of the enzymes alter reaction kinetics based on mechanistic characteristics of the enzyme, such as positive feedback. For the competitive enzymatic cycles studied here, the final product—consisting of a specific lipid composition or Ras activity state—depends on the size of the reaction system. Furthermore, we demonstrate how these reaction size dependencies can be controlled by engineering feedback mechanisms into the enzymes.

SdhA blocks disruption of the Legionella-containing vacuole by hijacking the OCRL phosphatase. Cell Rep 2021; 37:109894.

Abstract
Legionella pneumophila grows intracellularly within a replication vacuole via action of Icm/Dot-secreted proteins. One such protein, SdhA, maintains the integrity of the vacuolar membrane, thereby preventing cytoplasmic degradation of bacteria. We show here that SdhA binds and blocks the action of OCRL (OculoCerebroRenal syndrome of Lowe), an inositol 5-phosphatase pivotal for controlling endosomal dynamics. OCRL depletion results in enhanced vacuole integrity and intracellular growth of a sdhA mutant, consistent with OCRL participating in vacuole disruption. Overexpressed SdhA alters OCRL function, enlarging endosomes, driving endosomal accumulation of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2), and interfering with endosomal trafficking. SdhA interrupts Rab guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-OCRL interactions by binding to the OCRL ASPM-SPD2-Hydin (ASH) domain, without directly altering OCRL 5-phosphatase activity. The Legionella vacuole encompassing the sdhA mutant accumulates OCRL and endosomal antigen EEA1 (Early Endosome Antigen 1), consistent with SdhA blocking accumulation of OCRL-containing endosomal vesicles. Therefore, SdhA hijacking of OCRL is associated with blocking trafficking events that disrupt the pathogen vacuole.

Abstract
Dent disease is a rare X-linked renal tubulopathy due to CLCN5 and OCRL (DD2) mutations. OCRL mutations also cause Lowe syndrome (LS) involving the eyes, brain and kidney. DD2 is frequently described as a mild form of LS because some patients may present with extra-renal symptoms (ESs). Since DD2 is a rare disease and there are a low number of reported cases, it is still unclear whether it has a clinical picture distinct from LS. We retrospectively analyzed the phenotype and genotype of our cohort of 35 DD2 males and reviewed all published DD2 cases. We analyzed the distribution of mutations along the OCRL gene and evaluated the type and frequency of ES according to the type of mutation and localization in OCRL protein domains. The frequency of patients with at least one ES was 39%. Muscle findings are the most common ES (52%), while ocular findings are less common (11%). Analysis of the distribution of mutations revealed (1) truncating mutations map in the PH and linker domain, while missense mutations map in the 5-phosphatase domain, and only occasionally in the ASH-RhoGAP module; (2) five OCRL mutations cause both DD2 and LS phenotypes; (3) codon 318 is a DD2 mutational hot spot; (4) a correlation was found between the presence of ES and the position of the mutations along OCRL domains. DD2 is distinct from LS. The mutation site and the mutation type largely determine the DD2 phenotype.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome (LS) is an X-linked developmental disease characterized by cognitive deficiencies, bilateral congenital cataracts and renal dysfunction. Unfortunately, this disease leads to the early death of affected children often due to kidney failure. Although this condition was first described in the early 1950s and the affected gene (OCRL1) was identified in the early 1990s, its pathophysiological mechanism is not fully understood and there is no LS-specific cure available to patients. Here we report two important signaling pathways affected in LS patient cells. While RhoGTPase signaling abnormalities led to adhesion and spreading defects as compared to normal controls, PI3K/mTOR hyperactivation interfered with primary cilia assembly (scenario also observed in other ciliopathies with compromised kidney function). Importantly, we identified two FDA-approved drugs able to ameliorate these phenotypes. Specifically, statins mitigated adhesion and spreading abnormalities while rapamycin facilitated ciliogenesis in LS patient cells. However, no single drug was able to alleviate both phenotypes. Based on these and other observations, we speculate that Ocrl1 has dual, independent functions supporting proper RhoGTPase and PI3K/mTOR signaling. Therefore, this study suggest that Ocrl1-deficiency leads to signaling defects likely to require combinatorial drug treatment to suppress patient phenotypes and symptoms.

Abstract
The Src homology 2 containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) is a large multidomain enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3 ) to form PI(3,4)P2 . PI(3,4,5)P3 is a key lipid second messenger controlling the recruitment of signaling proteins to the plasma membrane, thereby regulating a plethora of cellular events, including proliferation, growth, apoptosis, and cytoskeletal rearrangements. SHIP2, alongside PI3K and PTEN, regulates PI(3,4,5)P3 levels at the plasma membrane and has been heavily implicated in serious diseases such as cancer and type 2 diabetes; however, many aspects of its regulation mechanism remain elusive. We recently reported an activating effect of the SHIP2 C2 domain and here we describe an additional layer of regulation via the pleckstrin homology-related (PHR) domain. We show a phosphoinositide-induced transition to a high activity state of the enzyme that increases phosphatase activity up to 10-15 fold. We further show that PI(3,4)P2 directly interacts with the PHR domain to trigger this allosteric activation. Modeling of the PHR-phosphatase-C2 region of SHIP2 on the membrane suggests no major inter-domain interactions with the PHR domain, but close contacts between the two linkers offer a possible path of allosteric communication. Together, our data show that the PHR domain acts as an allosteric module regulating the catalytic activity of SHIP2 in response to specific phosphoinositide levels in the cell membrane.

Abstract
Purpose: Bilateral childhood cataracts can be caused by a metabolic disease, constitute a part of a syndrome, run in families, be sporadic or iatrogenic. The amount of work-up needed to establish a cause is discussed and the aim of the present study was to evaluate causes of bilateral childhood cataract.Methods: Chart review of 211 Danish children with bilateral cataracts. Information on work-up was retrieved with special focus on general health, metabolic screening, evaluation for congenital infections and genetic testing.Results: Cataract was seen in combination with systemic disease in 40.8%, 29.4% had hereditary cataracts, 27.0% had isolated cataract, in 1.4% it was associated with ocular malformations and 1.4% had been born prematurely without any other sequelae than the cataract. A genetic cause could be demonstrated in 74 children.Conclusion: Systemic comorbidities are very common in children with cataract and are not always known prior to the diagnosis of cataract. Genetic evaluation, especially targeted analyses, provided a molecular genetic diagnosis in a large proportion of those tested but it also failed to provide a molecular genetic diagnosis in some patients with a family history suggesting autosomal dominant inheritance. Most importantly, in some patients, genetic work-up provided a diagnosis in patients where it had therapeutic consequences and where the systemic disease would have caused irreversible damage, had it not been treated timely. Given the high prevalence of systemic disease, it seems advisable to co-manage children with bilateral cataracts with a pediatrician and to include genetic evaluation as part of the work-up.

Abstract
Lipids must be correctly transported within the cell to the right place at the right time in order to be fully functional. Non-vesicular lipid transport is mediated by so-called lipid transfer proteins (LTPs), which contain a hydrophobic cavity that sequesters lipid molecules. Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP)-related proteins (ORPs) are a family of LTPs known to harbor lipid ligands, such as cholesterol and phospholipids. ORPs act as a sensor or transporter of those lipid ligands at membrane contact sites (MCSs) where two different cellular membranes are closely apposed. In particular, a characteristic functional property of ORPs is their role as a lipid exchanger. ORPs mediate counter-directional transport of two different lipid ligands at MCSs. Several, but not all, ORPs transport their lipid ligand from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in exchange for phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P), the other ligand, on apposed membranes. This ORP-mediated lipid “countertransport” is driven by the concentration gradient of PI4P between membranes, which is generated by its kinases and phosphatases. In this review, we will discuss how ORP function is tightly coupled to metabolism of phosphoinositides such as PI4P. Recent progress on the role of ORP-mediated lipid transport/countertransport at multiple MCSs in cellular functions will be also discussed.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases, which is characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the nigrostriatal pathway. Synaptic dysfunction impairs dopamine turnover and contributes to the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying synaptic dysfunction and dopaminergic neuronal vulnerability in PD are not clear. Here, we report that synaptojanin 1 (SYNJ1), a polyphosphoinositide phosphatase concentrated at nerve terminals, is a substrate of a cysteine proteinase, asparagine endopeptidase (AEP). SYNJ1 is cleaved by the cysteine proteinase AEP at N599 in the brains of PD patients. AEP-mediated cleavage of SYNJ1 disrupts neuronal phosphoinositide homeostasis and causes synaptic dysfunction. Overexpression of the AEP-generated fragments of SYNJ1 triggers synaptic dysfunction and the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons, inducing motor defects in the α-synuclein transgenic mice. Blockage of AEP-mediated cleavage of SYJN1 alleviates the pathological and behavioral defects in a mouse model of PD. Our results demonstrate that the fragmentation of SYNJ1 by AEP mediates synaptic dysfunction and dopaminergic neuronal degeneration in PD.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome (LS) is an oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (OCRL1) genetic disorder resulting in a defect of the OCRL protein, a phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 5-phosphatase containing various domains including a Rho GTPase-activating protein (RhoGAP) homology domain catalytically inactive. We previously reported surgery-associated bleeding in patients with LS, suggestive of platelet dysfunction, accompanied with a mild thrombocytopenia in several patients. To decipher the role of OCRL in platelet functions and in megakaryocyte (MK) maturation, we conducted a case-control study on 15 patients with LS (NCT01314560). While all had a drastically reduced expression of OCRL, this deficiency did not affect platelet aggregability, but resulted in delayed thrombus formation on collagen under flow conditions, defective platelet spreading on fibrinogen and impaired clot retraction. We evidenced alterations of the myosin light chain phosphorylation (P-MLC), with defective Rac1 activity and, inversely, elevated active RhoA. Altered cytoskeleton dynamics was also observed in cultured patient MKs showing deficient proplatelet extension with increased P-MLC that was confirmed using control MKs transfected with OCRL-specific small interfering(si)RNA (siOCRL). Patients with LS also had an increased proportion of circulating barbell-shaped proplatelets. Our present study establishes that a deficiency of the OCRL protein results in a defective actomyosin cytoskeleton reorganisation in both MKs and platelets, altering both thrombopoiesis and some platelet responses to activation necessary to ensure haemostasis.

Abstract
Lowe Syndrome (LS) is a lethal genetic disorder caused by mutations in the OCRL1 gene which encodes the lipid 5' phosphatase Ocrl1. Patients exhibit a characteristic triad of symptoms including eye, brain and kidney abnormalities with renal failure as the most common cause of premature death. Over 200 OCRL1 mutations have been identified in LS, but their specific impact on cellular processes is unknown. Despite observations of heterogeneity in patient symptom severity, there is little understanding of the correlation between genotype and its impact on phenotype. Here, we show that different mutations had diverse effects on protein localization and on triggering LS cellular phenotypes. In addition, some mutations affecting specific domains imparted unique characteristics to the resulting mutated protein. We also propose that certain mutations conformationally affect the 5'-phosphatase domain of the protein, resulting in loss of enzymatic activity and causing common and specific phenotypes (a conformational disease scenario). This study is the first to show the differential effect of patient 5'-phosphatase mutations on cellular phenotypes and introduces a conformational disease component in LS. This work provides a framework that explains symptom heterogeneity and can help stratify patients as well as to produce a more accurate prognosis depending on the nature and location of the mutation within the OCRL1 gene.

Abstract
Light-inducible dimerization protein modules enable precise temporal and spatial control of biological processes in non-invasive fashion. Among them, Magnets are small modules engineered from the Neurospora crassa photoreceptor Vivid by orthogonalizing the homodimerization interface into complementary heterodimers. Both Magnets components, which are well-tolerated as protein fusion partners, are photoreceptors requiring simultaneous photoactivation to interact, enabling high spatiotemporal confinement of dimerization with a single excitation wavelength. However, Magnets require concatemerization for efficient responses and cell preincubation at 28°C to be functional. Here we overcome these limitations by engineering an optimized Magnets pair requiring neither concatemerization nor low temperature preincubation. We validated these 'enhanced' Magnets (eMags) by using them to rapidly and reversibly recruit proteins to subcellular organelles, to induce organelle contacts, and to reconstitute OSBP-VAP ER-Golgi tethering implicated in phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate transport and metabolism. eMags represent a very effective tool to optogenetically manipulate physiological processes over whole cells or in small subcellular volumes.

Abstract
The oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe is a rare X-linked disease characterized by congenital cataracts, proximal renal tubulopathy, muscular hypotonia and mental impairment. This disease is caused by mutations in the OCRL gene encoding membrane bound inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase OCRL1. Here, we examined the OCRL gene of two Lowe syndrome patients and report two new missense mutations that affect the ASH domain involved in protein-protein interactions. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood of two non-related patients and their relatives. Exons and flanking intronic regions of OCRL were analyzed by direct sequencing. Several bioinformatics tools were used to assess the pathogenicity of the variants. The three-dimensional structure of wild-type and mutant ASH domains was modeled using the online server SWISS-MODEL. Clinical features suggesting the diagnosis of Lowe syndrome were observed in both patients. Genetic analysis revealed two novel missense variants, c.1907T>A (p.V636E) and c.1979A>C (p.H660P) in exon 18 of the OCRL gene confirming the clinical diagnosis in both cases. Variant c.1907T>A (p.V636E) was inherited from the patient's mother, while variant c.1979A>C (p.H660P) seems to have originated de novo. Analysis with bioinformatics tools indicated that both variants are pathogenic. Both amino acid changes affect the structure of the OCRL1 ASH domain. In conclusion, the identification of two novel missense mutations located in the OCRL1 ASH domain may shed more light on the functional importance of this domain. We suggest that p.V636E and p.H660P cause Lowe syndrome by disrupting the interaction of OCRL1 with other proteins or by impairing protein stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lowe syndrome (LS) is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the X-linked gene OCRL, which codes for an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase that plays a key role in endosome recycling, clathrin-coated pit formation, and actin polymerization. It is characterized by congenital cataracts, intellectual and developmental disability, and renal proximal tubular dysfunction. Patients are also at high risk for developing glaucoma and seizures. We recently developed induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from three patients with LS who have hypomorphic variants affecting the 3' end of the gene, and their neurotypical brothers to serve as controls. METHODS In this study, we used RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to obtain transcriptome profiles in LS and control neural progenitor cells (NPCs). RESULTS In a comparison of the patient and control NPCs (n = 3), we found 16 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) at the multiple test adjusted p value (padj) < 0.1, with nine at padj < 0.05. Using nominal p value < 0.05, 319 DEGs were detected. The relatively small number of DEGs could be due to the fact that OCRL is not a transcription factor per se, although it could have secondary effects on gene expression through several different mechanisms. Although the number of DEGs passing multiple test correction was small, those that were found are quite consistent with some of the known molecular effects of OCRL protein, and the clinical manifestations of LS. Furthermore, using gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), we found that genes increased expression in the patient NPCs showed enrichments of several gene ontology (GO) terms (false discovery rate < 0.25): telencephalon development, pallium development, NPC proliferation, and cortex development, which are consistent with a condition characterized by intellectual disabilities and psychiatric manifestations. In addition, a significant enrichment among the nominal DEGs for genes implicated in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was found (e.g., AFF2, DNER, DPP6, DPP10, RELN, CACNA1C), as well as several that are strong candidate genes for the development of eye problems found in LS, including glaucoma. The most notable example is EFEMP1, a well-known candidate gene for glaucoma and other eye pathologies. CONCLUSION Overall, the RNA-seq findings present several candidate genes that could help explain the underlying basis for the neurodevelopmental and eye problems seen in boys with LS.

Abstract
Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (OCRL-1) participates in the regulation of multiple cellular processes, through the conversion of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-phosphate to phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate. Mutations in this protein are related to Lowe syndrome (LS) and Dent-2 disease. In this study, the impact of Lowe syndrome mutations on the interactions of OCRL-1 with other proteins was evaluated through bioinformatic and computational approaches. In the functional analysis of the interaction network of the proteins, we found that the terms of gene ontology (GO) of greater significance were related to the intracellular transport of proteins, the signal transduction mediated by small G proteins and vesicles associated with the Golgi apparatus. From the proteins present in the GO terms of greater significance Rab8a was selected because its interaction facilitates the intracellular distribution of OCRL-1. The mutation p.Asn591Lys, present in the interaction domain of OCRL-1 and Rab8a, was studied using molecular dynamics. The molecular dynamics analysis showed that the presence of this mutation causes changes in the positional fluctuations of the amino acids and affects the flexibility of the protein making the interaction with Rab8a weaker. Rab proteins establish some specific interactions, which are important for the intracellular localization of OCRL-1; therefore, our findings suggest that the phenotype observed in patients with LS, in this case, is due to the destabilizing effect of p.Asn591Lys affecting the localization of OCRL-1 and indirectly its 5-phosphatase activity in the Golgi apparatus, endosomes, and cilia.

Abstract
Inositol phosphate (IP) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) signaling are critical signal transduction pathways responsible for generating numerous receptor-mediated cellular responses. Biochemical and genetic studies have revealed diverse roles of IP and PI signaling in eukaryotic signaling, but detailed characterization of unique IP and PI signaling profiles in response to different agonists and among cell types remains largely unexplored. Here, we outline steady-state inositol metabolic-labeling techniques that can be leveraged to assess the IP and PI signaling state in eukaryotic cells. This flexible technique can be amended and optimized to your cell line of interest, perturbed with biochemical, genetic, or pharmacological alteration, and used to provide comprehensive inositol profiling in various cellular systems.

Abstract
The oculocerebrorenal disorder of Lowe syndrome is an X-linked mutation in the gene oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe 1 (OCRL), characterized by the triad of congenital cataracts, severe intellectual impairment, and renal tubular dysfunction. Manifestations of phenotype in female carriers and patients are extremely rare. We present a female case with congenital cataracts, severe intellectual impairment, sensorineural hearing loss, and renal tubular dysfunction as Lowe syndrome. A 9-year-old Japanese girl visited our hospital due to prolonged proteinuria. Her renal biopsy revealed diffuse mesangium proliferation, sclerosis and dilatation of renal tubules, and mild IgA deposition in the mesangial region. Furthermore, she had congenital cataracts, severe intellectual impairment, and sensorineural hearing loss. Genetic screening did not identify mutations of the ORCL gene encoding inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (IPP-5P) (46 XX, female). However, we found the reduction of enzyme activity of IPP-5P to 50% of the normal value. Furthermore, her renal function had deteriorated to renal failure within a decade. Finally, she received peritoneal dialysis and renal transplantation. We present the oculocerebrorenal phenotype of Lowe syndrome in a female patient with reduced activity of IPP-5P without OCRL gene mutation.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the phenotype and genotype of a family with X-linked recessive Lowe syndrome. METHODS All the members in the Chinese pedigree underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic and systemic examinations. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood of the pedigree members and 100 unrelated healthy Chinese subjects. Direct sequencing was performed to screen the exons and intron boundaries of OCRL. RESULTS The ophthalmological and systemic examinations suggested that the affected individual had Lowe syndrome. The phenotype in the pedigree is severe and consistent among all the affected individuals except for an individual who additionally suffered from congenital heart disease and laryngeal cartilage dysplasia. Directional Sanger sequencing identified a complex mutation c.(2368_2368delG; c.2370A>C) in the Rho-GTPase activating protein domain. This complex mutation causes termination of protein synthesis at amino acid 824 and result in a new peptide with 823 amino acids (p.Ala790ProfsX34). This mutation was not detected in 100 unrelated healthy Chinese subjects. CONCLUSION Our findings expand the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of Lowe syndrome.

Abstract
Phosphorylation reactions, driven by competing kinases and phosphatases, are central elements of cellular signal transduction. We reconstituted a native eukaryotic lipid kinase-phosphatase reaction that drives the interconversion of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate [PI(4)P] and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-phosphate [PI(4,5)P2] on membrane surfaces. This system exhibited bistability and formed spatial composition patterns on supported membranes. In smaller confined regions of membrane, rapid diffusion ensures the system remains spatially homogeneous, but the final outcome-a predominantly PI(4)P or PI(4,5)P2 membrane composition-was governed by the size of the reaction environment. In larger confined regions, interplay between the reactions, diffusion, and confinement created a variety of differentially patterned states, including polarization. Experiments and kinetic modeling reveal how these geometric confinement effects arise from a mechanism based on stochastic fluctuations in the copy number of membrane-bound kinases and phosphatases. The underlying requirements for such behavior are unexpectedly simple and likely to occur in natural biological signaling systems.

Abstract
Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5PTase), a key enzyme that hydrolyzes the 5` position of the inositol ring, has essential functions in growth, development, and stress responses in plants, yeasts, and animals. However, the evolutionary history and patterns of 5PTases have not been examined systematically. Here, we report a comprehensive molecular evolutionary analysis of the 5PTase gene family and define four groups. These four groups are different from former classifications, which were based on in vitro substrate specificity. Most orthologous groups appear to be conserved as single or low-copy genes in all lineages in Groups II-IV, whereas 5PTase genes in Group I underwent several duplication events in angiosperm, resulting in multiple gene copies. Whole-genome duplication (WGD) was the main mechanism for 5PTase duplications in angiosperm. Plant 5PTases have more members than that of animals, and most plant 5PTase genes appear to have evolved under strong purifying selection. The paralogs have diverged in substrate specificity and expression pattern, showing evidence of selection pressure. Meanwhile, the increase in 5PTases and divergences in sequence, expression, and substrate might have contributed to the divergent functions of 5PTase genes, allowing the angiosperms to successfully adapt to a great number of ecological niches.

PTEN reduces endosomal PtdIns(4,5)P 2 in a phosphatase-independent manner via a PLC pathway. J Cell Biol 2019; 218:2198-2214. [PMID: 31118240 PMCID: PMC6605811 DOI: 10.1083/jcb.201805155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2018] [Revised: 03/15/2019] [Accepted: 05/02/2019] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
This work reveals that the tumor suppressor PTEN acts through a PLC to reduce levels of endosomal PtdIns(4,5)P2, its own enzymatic product. This pathway can be chemically activated to rescue OCRL1 depletion in several disease models of the Lowe syndrome, a rare multisystemic genetic disease. The tumor suppressor PTEN dephosphorylates PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 into PtdIns(4,5)P2. Here, we make the unexpected discovery that in Drosophila melanogaster PTEN reduces PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels on endosomes, independently of its phosphatase activity. This new PTEN function requires the enzymatic action of dPLCXD, an atypical phospholipase C. Importantly, we discovered that this novel PTEN/dPLCXD pathway can compensate for depletion of dOCRL, a PtdIns(4,5)P2 phosphatase. Mutation of OCRL1, the human orthologue of dOCRL, causes oculocerebrorenal Lowe syndrome, a rare multisystemic genetic disease. Both OCRL1 and dOCRL loss have been shown to promote accumulation of PtdIns(4,5)P2 on endosomes and cytokinesis defects. Here, we show that PTEN or dPLCXD overexpression prevents these defects. In addition, we found that chemical activation of this pathway restores normal cytokinesis in human Lowe syndrome cells and rescues OCRL phenotypes in a zebrafish Lowe syndrome model. Our findings identify a novel PTEN/dPLCXD pathway that controls PtdIns(4,5)P2 levels on endosomes. They also point to a potential new strategy for the treatment of Lowe syndrome.

Abstract
Background Lowe syndrome (LS) and Dent-2 disease (DD2) are disorders associated with mutations in the OCRL gene and characterized by progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here, we aimed to investigate the long-term renal outcome and identify potential determinants of CKD and its progression in children with these tubulopathies. Methods Retrospective analyses were conducted of clinical and genetic data in a cohort of 106 boys (LS: 88 and DD2: 18). For genotype-phenotype analysis, we grouped mutations according to their type and localization. To investigate progression of CKD we used survival analysis by Kaplan-Meier method using stage 3 CKD as the end-point. Results Median estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was lower in the LS group compared with DD2 (58.8 versus 87.4 mL/min/1.73 m2, P < 0.01). CKD stage II-V was found in 82% of patients, of these 58% and 28% had moderate-to-severe CKD in LS and DD2, respectively. Three patients (3%), all with LS, developed stage 5 of CKD. Survival analysis showed that LS was also associated with a faster CKD progression than DD2 (P < 0.01). On multivariate analysis, eGFR was dependent only on age (b = -0.46, P < 0.001). Localization, but not type of mutations, tended to correlate with eGFR. There was also no significant association between presence of nephrocalcinosis, hypercalciuria, proteinuria and number of adverse clinical events and CKD. Conclusions CKD is commonly found in children with OCRL mutations. CKD progression was strongly related to the underlying diagnosis but did not associate with clinical parameters, such as nephrocalcinosis or proteinuria.

Abstract
How cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) sense T cell receptor (TCR) signaling in order to specialize an area of plasma membrane for granule secretion is not understood. Here, we demonstrate that immune synapse formation led to rapid localized changes in the phosphoinositide composition of the plasma membrane, both reducing phosphoinositide-4-phosphate (PI(4)P), PI(4,5)P2, and PI(3,4,5)P3 and increasing diacylglycerol (DAG) and PI(3,4)P2 within the first 2 min of synapse formation. These changes reduced negative charge across the synapse, triggering the release of electrostatically bound PIP5 kinases that are required to replenish PI(4,5)P2. As PI(4,5)P2 decreased, actin was depleted from the membrane, allowing secretion. Forced localization of PIP5Kβ across the synapse prevented actin depletion, blocking both centrosome docking and secretion. Thus, PIP5Ks act as molecular sensors of TCR activation, controlling actin recruitment across the synapse, ensuring exquisite co-ordination between TCR signaling and CTL secretion. Immune synapse formation triggers rapid changes in the membrane composition and charge PIP5K is a molecular sensor of TCR activation and is rapidly depleted at the synapse PIP5K distribution controls actin recruitment across the immune synapse Membrane specialization controls accessibility for centrosome docking and secretion

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) are recognized as major signaling molecules in many different functions of eukaryotic cells. PIs can be dephosphorylated by multiple phosphatase activities at the 5-, 4-, and 3- positions. Human PI 5-phosphatases belong to a family of 10 members. Except for inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase A, they all catalyze the dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2 and/or PI(3,4,5)P3 at the 5- position. PI 5-phosphatases thus directly control the levels of PI(3,4,5)P3 and participate in the fine-tuning regulatory mechanisms of PI(3,4)P2 and PI(4,5)P2 Second messenger functions have been demonstrated for PI(3,4)P2 in invadopodium maturation and lamellipodia formation. PI 5-phosphatases can use several substrates on isolated enzymes, and it has been challenging to establish their real substrate in vivo. PI(4,5)P2 has multiple functions in signaling, including interacting with scaffold proteins, ion channels, and cytoskeleton proteins. PI 5-phosphatase isoenzymes have been individually implicated in human diseases, such as the oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe, through mechanisms that include lipid control. Oncogenic and tumor-suppressive functions of PI 5-phosphatases have also been reported in different cell contexts. The mechanisms responsible for genetic diseases and for oncogenic or tumor-suppressive functions are not fully understood. The regulation of PI 5-phosphatases is thus crucial in understanding cell functions.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) morphology is dynamic and key to its function during different cellular processes. Dong et al. now show in convergent studies in human cells and Caenorhabditis elegans neurons that a phosphoinositide phosphatase (INPP5K) is localized on the surface of the ER network and helps control the shape of the ER. INPP5K (SKIP) is an inositol 5-phosphatase that localizes in part to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We show that recruitment of INPP5K to the ER is mediated by ARL6IP1, which shares features of ER-shaping proteins. Like ARL6IP1, INPP5K is preferentially localized in ER tubules and enriched, relative to other ER resident proteins (Sec61β, VAPB, and Sac1), in newly formed tubules that grow along microtubule tracks. Depletion of either INPP5K or ARL6IP1 results in the increase of ER sheets. In a convergent but independent study, a screen for mutations affecting the distribution of the ER network in dendrites of the PVD neurons of Caenorhabditis elegans led to the isolation of mutants in CIL-1, which encodes the INPP5K worm orthologue. The mutant phenotype was rescued by expression of wild type, but not of catalytically inactive CIL-1. Our results reveal an unexpected role of an ER localized polyphosphoinositide phosphatase in the fine control of ER network organization.

Abstract
The lipid phosphatase Ship2 represents a drug discovery target for the treatment of different diseases, including cancer. Its C-terminal sterile alpha motif domain (Ship2-Sam) associates with the Sam domain from the EphA2 receptor (EphA2-Sam). This interaction is expected to mainly induce pro-oncogenic effects in cells therefore, inhibition of the Ship2-Sam/EphA2-Sam complex may represent an innovative route to discover anti-cancer therapeutics. In the present work, we designed and analyzed several peptide sequences encompassing the interaction interface of EphA2-Sam for Ship2-Sam. Peptide conformational analyses and interaction assays with Ship2-Sam conducted through diverse techniques (CD, NMR, SPR and MST), identified a positively charged penta-amino acid native motif in EphA2-Sam, that once repeated three times in tandem, binds Ship2-Sam. NMR experiments show that the peptide targets the negatively charged binding site of Ship2-Sam for EphA2-Sam. Preliminary in vitro cell-based assays indicate that -at 50 µM concentration- it induces necrosis of PC-3 prostate cancer cells with more cytotoxic effect on cancer cells than on normal dermal fibroblasts. This work represents a pioneering study that opens further opportunities for the development of inhibitors of the Ship2-Sam/EphA2-Sam complex for therapeutic applications.

Gulluni F, Martini M, Hirsch E. Cytokinetic Abscission: Phosphoinositides and ESCRTs Direct the Final Cut. J Cell Biochem 2017; 118:3561-3568.

Abstract
Cytokinetic abscission involves the fine and regulated recruitment of membrane remodeling proteins that participate in the abscission of the intracellular bridge that connects the two dividing cells. This essential process is mediated by the concomitant activity of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) and the vesicular trafficking directed to the midbody. Phosphoinositides (PtdIns), produced at plasma membrane, and endosomes, act as molecular intermediates by recruiting effector proteins involved in multiple cellular processes, such as intracellular signaling, endo- and exo-cytosis, and membrane remodeling events. Emerging evidences suggest that PtdIns have an active role in recruiting key elements that control the stability and the remodeling of the cytoskeleton from the furrow ingression to the abscission, at the end of cytokinesis. Accordingly, a possible concomitant and coordinated activity between PtdIns production and ESCRT machinery assembly could also exist and recent findings are pointing the attention on poorly understood ESCRT subunits potentially able to associate with PtdIns rich membranes. Although further studies are required to link PtdIns to ESCRT machinery during abscission, this might represent a promising field of study. J. Cell.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome is a rare X-linked disorder characterized by bilateral congenital cataracts and glaucoma, mental retardation, and proximal renal tubular dysfunction. Mutations in OCRL, an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase that dephosphorylates PI(4,5)P2, cause Lowe syndrome. Previously we showed that OCRL localizes to the primary cilium, which has a distinct membrane phospholipid composition, but disruption of phosphoinositides in the ciliary membrane is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that cilia from Lowe syndrome patient fibroblasts exhibit increased levels of PI(4,5)P2 and decreased levels of PI4P. In particular, subcellular distribution of PI(4,5)P2 build-up was observed at the transition zone. Accumulation of ciliary PI(4,5)P2 was pronounced in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) derived from Lowe syndrome mouse model as well as in Ocrl-null MEFs, which was reversed by reintroduction of OCRL. Similarly, expression of wild-type OCRL reversed the elevated PI(4,5)P2 in Lowe patient cells. Accumulation of sonic hedgehog protein in response to hedgehog agonist was decreased in MEFs derived from a Lowe syndrome mouse model. Together, our findings show for the first time an abnormality in ciliary phosphoinositides of both human and mouse cell models of Lowe syndrome.

Parkinson Sac Domain Mutation in Synaptojanin 1 Impairs Clathrin Uncoating at Synapses and Triggers Dystrophic Changes in Dopaminergic Axons. Neuron 2017; 93:882-896.e5.

Abstract
Synaptojanin 1 (SJ1) is a major presynaptic phosphatase that couples synaptic vesicle endocytosis to the dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2, a reaction needed for the shedding of endocytic factors from their membranes. While the role of SJ1's 5-phosphatase module in this process is well recognized, the contribution of its Sac phosphatase domain, whose preferred substrate is PI4P, remains unclear. Recently a homozygous mutation in its Sac domain was identified in early-onset parkinsonism patients. We show that mice carrying this mutation developed neurological manifestations similar to those of human patients. Synapses of these mice displayed endocytic defects and a striking accumulation of clathrin-coated intermediates, strongly implicating Sac domain's activity in endocytic protein dynamics. Mutant brains had elevated auxilin (PARK19) and parkin (PARK2) levels. Moreover, dystrophic axonal terminal changes were selectively observed in dopaminergic axons in the dorsal striatum. These results strengthen evidence for a link between synaptic endocytic dysfunction and Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and its related proteins (ORPs) constitute a large, evolutionarily conserved family of lipid-binding proteins that are associated with a wide range of cellular activities. The core function of OSBP/ORPs appears to be moving lipids between cellular membranes in a non-vesicular manner. Recent studies have unveiled a novel, counter-transport mechanism of cellular lipid transfer mediated by OSBP/ORPs at the membrane contact sites that involves phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate. Importantly, the OSBP/ORPs family has also been implicated in cell signalling pathways and cancer development. Here, we summarize recent progress in understanding the role of OSBP/ORPs in cancer development, and discuss how the lipid transfer function of OSBP/ORPs may underpin their role in tumorigenesis.

Decreased urinary excretion of the ectodomain form of megalin (A-megalin) in children with OCRL gene mutations. Pediatr Nephrol 2017; 32:621-625.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe gene (OCRL) is located on chromosome Xq25-26 and encodes an inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase (OCRL-1). Mutations in this gene cause Lowe syndrome (LS) or type 2 Dent disease, of which low-molecular-weight (LMW) proteinuria is a characteristic feature. Megalin is considered to play an important role in the development of renal tubular proteinuria. Two forms of megalin are excreted into the urine: full-length megalin (C-megalin) and megalin ectodomain (A-megalin). We have explored the role of megalin in the development of LMW proteinuria in patients with OCRL mutations by determining urinary megalin fractions. METHODS We measured A- and C-megalin in spot urine samples from five male patients with OCRL mutations (median age 9 years), using sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and adjusted the obtained values for excreted creatinine. The results were compared with those of 50 control subjects and one patient with type 1 Dent disease (T1D). RESULTS All patients demonstrated normal levels of urinary C-megalin. However, patients with OCRL mutations or T1D showed abnormally low levels of urinary A-megalin, with the exception of one 5-year-old boy with LS, who was the youngest patient enrolled in the study. CONCLUSIONS Decreased excretion of urinary A-megalin in four out of five patients with OCRL mutations suggests that LMW proteinuria may be caused by impaired megalin recycling within the proximal tubular cells. Homologous enzymes, similar to inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase B in mice, may help to compensate for defective OCRL-1 function during early childhood.

Abstract
Lowe syndrome and Dent disease are two conditions that result from mutations of the inositol 5-phosphatase oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (OCRL) and share the feature of impaired kidney proximal tubule function. Genetic ablation of Ocrl in mice failed to recapitulate the human phenotypes, possibly because of the redundant functions of OCRL and its paralog type 2 inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase (INPP5B). Germline knockout of both paralogs in mice results in early embryonic lethality. We report that kidney tubule-specific inactivation of Inpp5b on a global Ocrl-knockout mouse background resulted in low molecular weight proteinuria, phosphaturia, and acidemia. At the cellular level, we observed a striking impairment of clathrin-dependent and -independent endocytosis in proximal tubules, phenocopying what has been reported for Dent disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding endosomal proton-chloride exchange transporter 5. These results suggest that the functions of OCRL/INPP5B and proton-chloride exchange transporter 5 converge on shared mechanisms, the impairment of which has a dramatic effect on proximal tubule endocytosis.

Abstract
Rab35 is one of the first discovered members of the large Rab GTPase family, yet it received little attention for 10 years being considered merely as a Rab1-like GTPase. In 2006, Rab35 was recognized as a unique Rab GTPase localized both at the plasma membrane and on endosomes, playing essential roles in endocytic recycling and cytokinesis. Since then, Rab35 has become one of the most studied Rabs involved in a growing number of cellular functions, including endosomal trafficking, exosome release, phagocytosis, cell migration, immunological synapse formation and neurite outgrowth. Recently, Rab35 has been acknowledged as an oncogenic GTPase with activating mutations being found in cancer patients. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of known Rab35-dependent cellular functions and detail the few Rab35 effectors characterized so far. We also review how the Rab35 GTP/GDP cycle is regulated, and emphasize a newly discovered mechanism that controls its tight activation on newborn endosomes. We propose that the involvement of Rab35 in such diverse and apparently unrelated cellular functions can be explained by the central role of this GTPase in regulating phosphoinositides and F-actin, both on endosomes and at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the phenotypes of Dent disease in Chinese children and their heterozygous mothers and to establish genetic diagnoses. STUDY DESIGN Using a modified protocol, we screened 1288 individuals with proteinuria. A diagnosis of Dent disease was established in 19 boys from 16 families by the presence of loss of function/deleterious mutations in CLCN5 or OCRL1. We also analyzed 16 available patients' mothers and examined their pregnancy records. RESULTS We detected 14 loss of function/deleterious mutations of CLCN5 in 15 boys and 2 mutations of OCRL1 in 4 boys. Of the patients, 16 of 19 had been wrongly diagnosed with other diseases and 11 of 19 had incorrect or unnecessary treatment. None of the patients, but 6 of 14 mothers, had nephrocalcinosis or nephrolithiasis at diagnosis. Of the patients, 8 of 14 with Dent disease 1 were large for gestational age (>90th percentile); 8 of 15 (53.3%) had rickets. We also present predicted structural changes for 4 mutant proteins. CONCLUSIONS Pediatric Dent disease often is misdiagnosed; genetic testing achieves a correct diagnosis. Nephrocalcinosis or nephrolithiasis may not be sensitive diagnostic criteria. We identified 10 novel mutations in CLCN5 and OCRL1. The possibility that altered CLCN5 function could affect fetal growth and a possible link between a high rate of rickets and low calcium intake are discussed.

Abstract
The phosphodiesterase 6 delta subunit (PDE6δ) shuttles several farnesylated cargos between membranes. The cargo sorting mechanism between cilia and other compartments is not understood. Here we show using the inositol polyphosphate 5'-phosphatase E (INPP5E) and the GTP-binding protein (Rheb) that cargo sorting depends on the affinity towards PDE6δ and the specificity of cargo release. High-affinity cargo is exclusively released by the ciliary transport regulator Arl3, while low-affinity cargo is released by Arl3 and its non-ciliary homologue Arl2. Structures of PDE6δ/cargo complexes reveal the molecular basis of the sorting signal which depends on the residues at the -1 and -3 positions relative to farnesylated cysteine. Structure-guided mutation allows the generation of a low-affinity INPP5E mutant which loses exclusive ciliary localization. We postulate that the affinity to PDE6δ and the release by Arl2/3 in addition to a retention signal are the determinants for cargo sorting and enrichment at its destination.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PIs) form a minor class of phospholipids with crucial functions in cell physiology, ranging from cell signalling and motility to a role as signposts of compartmental membrane identity. Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphates are present at the plasma membrane and within the endolysosomal system, where they serve as key regulators of both cell signalling and of intracellular membrane traffic. Here, we provide an overview of the metabolic pathways that regulate cellular synthesis of PI 3-phosphates at distinct intracellular sites and discuss the mechanisms by which these lipids regulate cell signalling and membrane traffic. Finally, we provide a framework for how PI 3-phosphate metabolism is integrated into the cellular network.

Abstract
The oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe is a rare X-linked multisystemic disorder characterized by the triad of congenital cataracts, intellectual disability, and proximal renal tubular dysfunction. Whereas the ocular manifestations and severe muscular hypotonia are the typical first diagnostic clues apparent at birth, the manifestations of incomplete renal Fanconi syndrome are often recognized only later in life. Other characteristic features are progressive severe growth retardation and behavioral problems, with tantrums. Many patients develop a debilitating arthropathy. Treatment is symptomatic, and the life span rarely exceeds 40 years. The causative oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe gene (OCRL) encodes the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase OCRL-1. OCRL variants have not only been found in classic Lowe syndrome, but also in patients with a predominantly renal phenotype classified as Dent disease type 2 (Dent-2). Recent data indicate that there is a phenotypic continuum between Dent-2 disease and Lowe syndrome, suggesting that there are individual differences in the ability to compensate for the loss of enzyme function. Extensive research has demonstrated that OCRL-1 is involved in multiple intracellular processes involving endocytic trafficking and actin skeleton dynamics. This explains the multi-organ manifestations of the disease. Still, the mechanisms underlying the wide phenotypic spectrum are poorly understood, and we are far from a causative therapy. In this review, we provide an update on clinical and molecular genetic findings in Lowe syndrome and the cellular and physiological functions of OCRL-1.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides, particularly PI(3,4,5)P3, and PI(4,5)P2, are recognized by SHIP2 a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family. SHIP2 dephosphorylates PI(3,4,5)P3 to form PI(3,4)P2; the latter interacts with specific target proteins (e.g. lamellipodin). Although the SHIP2 preferred substrate is PI(3,4,5)P3, PI(4,5)P2 could also be dephosphorylated to PI4P. Through depletion of SHIP2 in a glioblastoma cell line 1321 N1 cells, we show that SHIP2 inhibits cell migration. In different glioblastoma cell lines and primary cultures, SHIP2 staining at the plasma membrane partly overlaps with PI(4,5)P2 immunoreactivity. PI(4,5)P2 was upregulated in SHIP2-deficient N1 cells as compared to control cells; in contrast, PI4P was very much decreased in SHIP2-deficient cells. Therefore, SHIP2 controls both PI(3,4,5)P3 and PI(4,5)P2 levels in intact cells. In N1 cells, the PI(4,5)P2 binding protein myosin-1c was identified as a new interactor of SHIP2. Regulation of PI(4,5)P2 and PI4P content by SHIP2 controls N1 cell migration through the organization of focal adhesions. Thus, our results reveal a novel role of SHIP2 in the control of PI(4,5)P2, PI4P and cell migration in PTEN-deficient glioblastoma N1 cells.

Abstract
Mutation of the inositol 5-phosphatase OCRL1 causes Lowe syndrome and Dent-2 disease. Loss of OCRL1 function perturbs several cellular processes, including membrane traffic, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly defined. Here we show that OCRL1 is part of the membrane-trafficking machinery operating at the trans-Golgi network (TGN)/endosome interface. OCRL1 interacts via IPIP27A with the F-BAR protein pacsin 2. OCRL1 and IPIP27A localize to mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR)-containing trafficking intermediates, and loss of either protein leads to defective MPR carrier biogenesis at the TGN and endosomes. OCRL1 5-phosphatase activity, which is membrane curvature sensitive, is stimulated by IPIP27A-mediated engagement of OCRL1 with pacsin 2 and promotes scission of MPR-containing carriers. Our data indicate a role for OCRL1, via IPIP27A, in regulating the formation of pacsin 2-dependent trafficking intermediates and reveal a mechanism for coupling PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis with carrier biogenesis on endomembranes.

Abstract
The function of Sac2/INPP5F in the endocytic pathway and its activity as a 4-phosphatase suggest that Sac2/INPP5F and OCRL may cooperate in the sequential dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2 in a partnership that mimics that of the two phosphatase modules of synaptojanin. The recruitment of inositol phosphatases to endocytic membranes mediates dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2, a phosphoinositide concentrated in the plasma membrane, and prevents its accumulation on endosomes. The importance of the conversion of PI(4,5)P2 to PtdIns during endocytosis is demonstrated by the presence of both a 5-phosphatase and a 4-phosphatase (Sac domain) module in the synaptojanins, endocytic PI(4,5)P2 phosphatases conserved from yeast to humans and the only PI(4,5)P2 phosphatases in yeast. OCRL, another 5-phosphatase that couples endocytosis to PI(4,5)P2 dephosphorylation, lacks a Sac domain. Here we show that Sac2/INPP5F is a PI4P phosphatase that colocalizes with OCRL on endocytic membranes, including vesicles formed by clathrin-mediated endocytosis, macropinosomes, and Rab5 endosomes. An OCRL–Sac2/INPP5F interaction could be demonstrated by coimmunoprecipitation and was potentiated by Rab5, whose activity is required to recruit Sac2/INPP5F to endosomes. Sac2/INPP5F and OCRL may cooperate in the sequential dephosphorylation of PI(4,5)P2 at the 5 and 4 position of inositol in a partnership that mimics that of the two phosphatase modules of synaptojanin.

[PMID: 25918845 PMCID: PMC4435004 DOI: 10.7554/elife.05660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2014] [Accepted: 04/27/2015] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Synaptojanin and endophilin represent a classic pair of endocytic proteins that exhibit coordinated action during rapid synaptic vesicle endocytosis. Current models suggest that synaptojanin activity is tightly associated with endophilin through high-affinity binding between the synaptojanin proline-rich domain (PRD) and the endophilin SH3 domain. Surprisingly, we find that truncated synaptojanin lacking the PRD domain sustains normal synaptic transmission, indicating that synaptojanin's core function in vivo resides in the remaining two domains that contain phosphoinositide-phosphatase activities: an N-terminal Sac1 phosphatase domain and a 5-phosphatase domain. We further show that the Sac1 domain plays an unexpected role in targeting synaptojanin to synapses. The requirement for Sac1 is bypassed by tethering the synaptojanin 5-phophatase to the endophilin membrane-bending Bin–Amphiphysin–Rvs (BAR) domain. Together, our results uncover an unexpected role for the Sac1 domain in vivo in supporting coincident action between synaptojanin and endophilin at synapses. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.05660.001 Nerve cells called neurons can rapidly carry information around the body. Each neuron forms connections called synapses with several other cells to build networks for information exchange. At most synapses, electrical activity in one neuron results in the release of chemicals called neurotransmitters from storage compartments called synaptic vesicles. The neurotransmitters leave the cell and cross the gap between the two neurons to activate the next cell. After the neurotransmitters have been released, the synaptic vesicles need to be regenerated via a recycling process called endocytosis. This recycling process is very important for synapses to work properly, but it is not clear exactly how it occurs. Two of the proteins involved are called synaptojanin and endophilin. Synaptojanin is made up of three structural units (or ‘domains’), including the proline-rich domain and the Sac1 domain. It has been proposed that interactions between endophilin and the proline-rich domain of synaptojanin are essential for vesicle recycling. Here, Dong et al. studied nematode worms that carry mutant forms of synaptojanin. The experiments show that the Sac1 domain, but not the proline-rich domain, is required for the synapses to work properly. However, the Sac1 domain is not required if synaptojanin is artificially linked to endophilin. Dong et al.'s findings suggest that synaptojanin uses its Sac1 domains to work with endophilin. A future challenge will be to understand the details of how this cooperative action occurs. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.05660.002
