Title Autophagy regulates the stability of sialin, a lysosomal sialic acid transporter.
Journal Biosci Biotechnol Biochem
Abstract Macroautophagy plays a critical role in catabolizing cytosolic components via lysosomal degradation. Recent findings from our studies indicate that basal autophagy is required for the efficient lysosomal catabolism of sialyloligosaccharides, and that the downregulation of sialin, a lysosomal transporter of sialic acids can cause a significant delay in the cytosolic accumulation of such glycans. The findings reported herein show that the sialin protein level was increased when the autophagy process was inhibited. This effect appears to be specific to sialin, since the amount of LAMP1, another lysosomal membrane protein, remains constant under the same conditions. Our results suggest that autophagy may regulate the stability of sialin, and it could lead to the cytosolic accumulation of sialyloligosaccharides in autophagy-defective cells.
