| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Osteoclast secretory lysosomes move toward the plasma membrane and release their enzymes required for bone resorption. We have shown that a3 isoform of proton-pumping V-ATPase has an essential role in outward trafficking of secretory lysosomes. The a3 is lysosome-specific isoform of the a subunit that forms the proton pathway in V-ATPase. Using a3-knockout mice, we found that a3 is indispensable for recruitment of Rab7, a small GTPase involved in lysosome trafficking. We also found that a3 specifically interacts with inactivated-form of Rab7. These results suggest that a3 recruits Rab7 to secretory lysosomes through their direct interaction. Secretory lysosomes are involved in various cell type-specific functions, such as secretion of pore-forming protein from cytotoxic T cells and metastasis of cancer cells. Thus, our findings will provide a new insight into these functions, and promote development of novel treatments for related diseases.
