Outline of Research at the Start

本研究では領域計画研究のうち、膜透過型オートファジーにおける核酸及びタンパク質などのリソソーム膜透過の分子機構とその制御機構解明を担当する。リソソーム膜を直接透過する経路について核酸をモデル基質として、膜透過の分子機構・制御機構の解明、生理機能解明を目標とする。さらに、タンパク質のリソソーム膜透過機構解明も目指すとともに、他の生体分子に関しても膜透過型オートファジーの基質となる可能性について検討を行う。本研究で得られる情報を全計画班と共有することにより領域の目標である「細胞内リソソーム分解全体の統合的理解」を推進する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

We showed that ATP consumption is required for lysosomal uptake of nucleic acids during RNautophagy/DNautophagy (RDA), but V-ATPase is not required. We found multiple regulatory mechanisms underlying RNautophagy, including an activation mechanism mediated by innate immune receptors and a nucleic acid binding sequence in the cytoplasmic domain of SIDT2. We found a phenomenon in which proteins are directly taken up into lysosomes in an ATP-dependent manner and degraded. We also found that SIDT2 mediates this pathway. Furthermore, we revealed that dysfunction of this degradation mechanism leads to accumulation of proteins within cells, causing neuromuscular diseases.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

マルチモードオートファジーについては不明な点が多かった。本研究ではそのような多様なオートファジー経路の分子機構、制御機構と生理・病態生理的意義の一端を解明した。本研究で明らかとなった分解経路やこれらの経路において機能するタンパク質は、アルツハイマー病・パーキンソン病など、タンパク質蓄積が原因となる神経変性疾患や筋疾患について新たな治療標的となり得る。
