Abstract
Lysosomal impairment is strongly implicated in Parkinson's disease (PD). Among the several PD-linked genes, the ATP13A2 gene, associated with the PARK9 locus, encodes a transmembrane lysosomal P5-type ATPase. Mutations in the ATP13A2 gene were primarily identified as the cause of Kufor-Rakeb syndrome (KRS), a juvenile-onset form of PD. Subsequently, an increasing list of several mutations has been described. These mutations result in truncation of the ATP13A2 protein, leading to a loss of function but surprisingly causing heterogeneity and variability in the clinical symptoms associated with different brain pathologies. In vitro studies show that its loss compromises lysosomal function, contributing to cell death. To understand the role of ATP13A2 dysfunction in disease, we disrupted its expression through a viral vector-based approach in nonhuman primates. Here, in this pilot study, we injected bilaterally into the substantia nigra of macaques, a lentiviral vector expressing an ATP13A2 small hairpin RNA. Animals were terminated five months later, and brains were harvested and compared with historical non-injected control brains to evaluate cerebral pathological markers known to be affected in KRS and PD. We characterised the pattern of dopaminergic loss in the striatum and the substantia nigra, the regional distribution of α-synuclein immunoreactivity in several brain structures, and its pathological status (i.e., S129 phosphorylation), the accumulation of heavy metals in nigral sections and occurrence of lysosomal dysfunction. This proof-of-concept experiment highlights the potential value of lentivirus-mediated ATP13A2 silencing to induce significant and ongoing degeneration in the nigrostriatal pathway, α-synuclein pathology, and iron accumulation in nonhuman primates.

NPJ Parkinsons Dis 2024; 10:133.

Abstract
Although most cases of Parkinson's disease (PD) are sporadic, mutations in over 20 genes are known to cause heritable forms of the disease. Recessive loss-of-function mutations in ATP13A2, a lysosomal transmembrane P5B-type ATPase and polyamine exporter, can cause early-onset familial PD. Familial ATP13A2 mutations are also linked to related neurodegenerative diseases, including Kufor-Rakeb syndrome, hereditary spastic paraplegias, neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Despite the severe effects of ATP13A2 mutations in humans, ATP13A2 knockout (KO) mice fail to exhibit neurodegeneration even at advanced ages, making it challenging to study the neuropathological effects of ATP13A2 loss in vivo. Germline deletion of ATP13A2 in rodents may trigger the upregulation of compensatory pathways during embryonic development that mask the full neurotoxic effects of ATP13A2 loss in the brain. To explore this idea, we selectively deleted ATP13A2 in the adult mouse brain by the unilateral delivery of an AAV-Cre vector into the substantia nigra of young adult mice carrying conditional loxP-flanked ATP13A2 KO alleles. We observe a progressive loss of striatal dopaminergic nerve terminals at 3 and 10 months after AAV-Cre delivery. Cre-injected mice also exhibit robust dopaminergic neuronal degeneration in the substantia nigra at 10 months. Adult-onset ATP13A2 KO also recreates many of the phenotypes observed in aged germline ATP13A2 KO mice, including lysosomal abnormalities, p62-positive inclusions, and neuroinflammation. Our study demonstrates that the adult-onset homozygous deletion of ATP13A2 in the nigrostriatal pathway produces robust and progressive dopaminergic neurodegeneration that serves as a useful in vivo model of ATP13A2-related neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
ATPase cation transporting 13A2 (ATP13A2) is an endolysosomal P-type ATPase known to be a polyamine transporter, explored mostly in neurons. As endolysosomal functions are also crucial in innate immune cells, we aimed to explore the potential role of ATP13A2 in the human immunocellular compartment. We found that human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), the professional type I IFN-producing immune cells, especially have a prominent enrichment of ATP13A2 expression in endolysosomal compartments. ATP13A2 knockdown in human pDCs interferes with cytokine induction in response to TLR9/7 activation in response to bona fide ligands. ATP13A2 plays this crucial role in TLR9/7 activation in human pDCs by regulating endolysosomal pH and mitochondrial reactive oxygen generation. This (to our knowledge) hitherto unknown regulatory mechanism in pDCs involving ATP13A2 opens up a new avenue of research, given the crucial role of pDC-derived type I IFNs in protective immunity against infections as well as in the immunopathogenesis of myriad contexts of autoreactive inflammation.

Abstract
P-type ATPases constitute a large ancient super-family of primary active pumps that have diverse substrate specificities ranging from H+ to phospholipids. The significance of these enzymes in biology cannot be overstated. They are structurally related, and their catalytic cycles alternate between high- and low-affinity conformations that are induced by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of a conserved aspartate residue. In the year 1988, all P-type sequences available by then were analyzed and five major families, P1 to P5, were identified. Since then, a large body of knowledge has accumulated concerning the structure, function, and physiological roles of members of these families, but only one additional family, P6 ATPases, has been identified. However, much is still left to be learned. For each family a few remaining enigmas are presented, with the intention that they will stimulate interest in continued research in the field. The review is by no way comprehensive and merely presents personal views with a focus on evolution.

ATP13A4 Upregulation Drives the Elevated Polyamine Transport System in the Breast Cancer Cell Line MCF7. Biomolecules 2023; 13:918.

Abstract
Polyamine homeostasis is disturbed in several human diseases, including cancer, which is hallmarked by increased intracellular polyamine levels and an upregulated polyamine transport system (PTS). Thus far, the polyamine transporters contributing to the elevated levels of polyamines in cancer cells have not yet been described, despite the fact that polyamine transport inhibitors are considered for cancer therapy. Here, we tested whether the upregulation of candidate polyamine transporters of the P5B transport ATPase family is responsible for the increased PTS in the well-studied breast cancer cell line MCF7 compared to the non-tumorigenic epithelial breast cell line MCF10A. We found that MCF7 cells presented elevated expression of a previously uncharacterized P5B-ATPase, ATP13A4, which was responsible for the elevated polyamine uptake activity. Furthermore, MCF7 cells were more sensitive to polyamine cytotoxicity, as demonstrated by cell viability, cell death and clonogenic assays. Importantly, the overexpression of ATP13A4 WT in MCF10A cells induced a MCF7 polyamine phenotype, with significantly higher uptake of BODIPY-labeled polyamines and increased sensitivity to polyamine toxicity. In conclusion, we established ATP13A4 as a new polyamine transporter in the human PTS and showed that ATP13A4 may play a major role in the increased polyamine uptake of breast cancer cells. ATP13A4 therefore emerges as a candidate therapeutic target for anticancer drugs that block the PTS.

Abstract
Mutations in the human ATP13A2 (PARK9), a lysosomal ATPase, cause Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome, an early-onset form of Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we demonstrate that ATP13A2 functions as a lysosomal H+,K+-ATPase. The K+-dependent ATPase activity and the lysosomal K+-transport activity of ATP13A2 are inhibited by an inhibitor of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, thapsigargin, and K+-competitive inhibitors of gastric H+,K+-ATPase, such as vonoprazan and SCH28080. Interestingly, these H+,K+-ATPase inhibitors cause lysosomal alkalinization and α-synuclein accumulation, which are pathological hallmarks of PD. Furthermore, PD-associated mutants of ATP13A2 show abnormal expression and function. Our results suggest that the H+/K+-transporting function of ATP13A2 contributes to acidification and α-synuclein degradation in lysosomes.

Abstract
Dysregulation of polyamine homeostasis strongly associates with human diseases. ATP13A2, which is mutated in juvenile-onset Parkinson's disease and autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 78, is a transporter with a critical role in balancing the polyamine concentration between the lysosome and the cytosol. Here, to better understand human ATP13A2-mediated polyamine transport, we use single-particle cryo-electron microscopy to solve high-resolution structures of human ATP13A2 in six intermediate states, including the putative E2 structure for the P5 subfamily of the P-type ATPases. These structures comprise a nearly complete conformational cycle spanning the polyamine transport process and capture multiple substrate binding sites distributed along the transmembrane regions, suggesting a potential polyamine transport pathway. Integration of high-resolution structures, biochemical assays, and molecular dynamics simulations allows us to obtain a better understanding of the structural basis of how hATP13A2 transports polyamines, providing a mechanistic framework for ATP13A2-related diseases.

Abstract
Membrane proteins play an essential role in all living organisms. Although there have been numerous efforts in the past to elucidate the structure and function of eukaryotic primary active transporters, knowledge about the majority of these membrane proteins is still minimal. This is often due to their low availability and complex handling. In this study, we homologously expressed three ATP-dependent transport proteins, STE6-2p, NEO1-p, and YPK9-p, in Pichia pastoris and subsequently optimized the solubilization and purification processes. Sequential use of different mild detergents and utilization of hydrophilic matrices in the purification procedure allowed us to obtain all three transporters monodisperse and in high purity, enabling initial structural analysis by cryo-electron microscopy. Using the respective substrates, we determined the specific activity of all target proteins using an ATPase assay. This study opens the door to further functional and structural studies of this pharmacologically important class of membrane proteins.

Abstract
P5A- and P5B- ATPases, or collectively P5-ATPases, are eukaryotic-specific ATP-dependent transporters that are important for the function of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and endo-/lysosomes. However, their substrate specificities had remained enigmatic for many years. Recent cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and biochemical studies of P5-ATPases have revealed their substrate specificities and transport mechanisms, which were found to be markedly different from other members of the P-type ATPase superfamily. The P5A-ATPase extracts mistargeted or mis-inserted transmembrane helices from the ER membrane for protein quality control, while the P5B-ATPases mediate export of polyamines from late endo-/lysosomes into the cytosol. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms of their substrate recognition and transport based on the cryo-EM structures of the yeast and human P5-ATPases. We highlight how structural diversification of the transmembrane domain has enabled the P5-ATPase subfamily to adapt for transport of atypical substrates.

[PMID: 36830711 PMCID: PMC9953717 DOI: 10.3390/biom13020337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Cells acquire polyamines putrescine (PUT), spermidine (SPD) and spermine (SPM) via the complementary actions of polyamine uptake and synthesis pathways. The endosomal P5B-type ATPases ATP13A2 and ATP13A3 emerge as major determinants of mammalian polyamine uptake. Our biochemical evidence shows that fluorescently labeled polyamines are genuine substrates of ATP13A2. They can be used to measure polyamine uptake in ATP13A2- and ATP13A3-dependent cell models resembling radiolabeled polyamine uptake. We further report that ATP13A3 enables faster and stronger cellular polyamine uptake than does ATP13A2. We also compared the uptake of new green fluorescent PUT, SPD and SPM analogs using different coupling strategies (amide, triazole or isothiocyanate) and fluorophores (symmetrical BODIPY, BODIPY-FL and FITC). ATP13A2 promotes the uptake of various SPD and SPM analogs, whereas ATP13A3 mainly stimulates the uptake of PUT and SPD conjugates. However, the polyamine linker and coupling position on the fluorophore impacts the transport capacity, whereas replacing the fluorophore affects polyamine selectivity. The highest uptake in ATP13A2 or ATP13A3 cells is observed with BODIPY-FL-amide conjugated to SPD, whereas BODIPY-PUT analogs are specifically taken up via ATP13A3. We found that P5B-type ATPase isoforms transport fluorescently labeled polyamine analogs with a distinct structure-activity relationship (SAR), suggesting that isoform-specific polyamine probes can be designed.

Abstract
Polyamines (PAs) are physiologically relevant molecules that are ubiquitous in all organisms. The vitality of PAs to the healthy functioning of a cell is due to their polycationic nature causing them to interact with a vast plethora of cellular players and partake in numerous cellular pathways. Naturally, the homeostasis of such essential molecules is tightly regulated in a strictly controlled interplay between intracellular synthesis and degradation, uptake from and secretion to the extracellular compartment, as well as intracellular trafficking. Not surprisingly, dysregulated PA homeostasis and signaling are implicated in multiple disorders, ranging from cancer to neurodegeneration; leading many to propose rectifying the PA balance as a potential therapeutic strategy. Despite being well characterized in bacteria, fungi and plants, the molecular identity and properties of the PA transporters in animals are poorly understood. This review brings together the current knowledge of the cellular function of the mammalian PA transport system (PTS). We will focus on the role of P5B-ATPases ATP13A2-5 which are PA transporters in the endosomal system that have emerged as key players in cellular PA uptake and organelle homeostasis. We will discuss recent breakthroughs on their biochemical and structural properties as well as their implications for disease and therapy.

Abstract
Mutations in ATP13A2 cause Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome (KRS), a juvenile form of Parkinson's Disease (PD). The gene product belongs to a diverse family of ion pumps and mediates polyamine influx from lysosomal lumen. While the biochemical and structural studies highlight its unique mechanics, how PD pathology is linked to ATP13A2 function remains unclear. Here we report that localization of overexpressed TOM20, a mitochondrial outer-membrane protein, is significantly altered upon ATP13A2 expression to partially merge with lysosome. Using Halo-fused version of ATP13A2, ATP13A2 was identified in lysosome and autophagosome. Upon ATP13A2 co-expression, overexpressed TOM20 was found not only in mitochondria but also within ATP13A2-containing autolysosome. This modification of TOM20 localization was inhibited by adding 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) and not accompanied with mitophagy induction. We suggest that ATP13A2 may participate in the control of overexpressed proteins targeted to mitochondrial outer-membrane.
