Research Abstract

The reduced activity of TNAP in DT40 cells deficient of two ZnT complexes(ZnT5/ZnT6 heterodimer and ZnT7 homo-oligomer) was not restored by zinc supplementation nor by exogenous expression of other ZnTs that increase the zinc content in the early secretory pathway. Moreover the expression of ZnT5/ZnT6 heterodimers reconstituted with zinc-transport-incompetent ZnT5 mutant failed to restore TNAP activity, but could stabilize the TNAP protein as the apo-form. These findings demonstrate that TNAP is activated not simply by passive zinc binding, but by an elaborate two-step mechanism via protein stabilization followed by enzyme conversion from the apo-to the holo-form with zinc loaded by ZnT complexes in the early secretory pathway.
