Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) also known as lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 1 and CD107a (Cluster of Differentiation 107a), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LAMP1 gene. The human LAMP1 gene is located on the long arm (q) of chromosome 13 at region 3, band 4 (13q34).

Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 is a glycoprotein from a family of Lysosome-associated membrane glycoproteins. [5] The LAMP-1 glycoprotein is a type I transmembrane protein [6] which is expressed at high or medium levels in at least 76 different normal tissue cell types. [7] It resides primarily across lysosomal membranes, [8] and functions to provide selectins with carbohydrate ligands. [5] CD107a has also been shown to be a marker of degranulation on lymphocytes such as CD8+ and NK cells, [9] and may also play a role in tumor cell differentiation and metastasis.

Structure

Residing primarily across lysosomal membranes, these glycoproteins consist of a large, highly glycosylated end with N-linked carbon chains on the luminal side of the membrane, and a short C-terminal tail [6] exposed to the cytoplasm. [8] The extracytoplasmic region contains a hinge-like structure which can form disulphide bridges homologous to those observed in human immunoglobulin A. [8] Other characteristics of the structure of the LAMP-1 glycoproteins include:

Function

LAMP1 and LAMP2 glycoproteins comprise 50% of all lysosomal membrane proteins, [6] and are thought to be responsible in part for maintaining lysosomal integrity, pH and catabolism. [6] [11] The expression of LAMP1 and LAMP2 glycoproteins are linked, as deficiencies in LAMP1 gene will lead to increased expression of LAMP2 glycoproteins. [11] The two are therefore thought to share similar functions in vivo. [6] However, this makes the determining the precise function of LAMP1 difficult, because while the LAMP1 deficient phenotype is little different than the wild type due to LAMP2 up regulation, [6] [11] the LAMP1/LAMP2 double deficient phenotype leads to embryonic lethality. [11]

Although the LAMP1 glycoproteins primarily reside across lysosomal membranes, in certain cases they can be expressed across the plasma membrane of the cell. [11] Expression of LAMP1 at the cell surface can occur due to lysosomal fusion with the cell membrane. [12] Cell surface expression of LAMP1 can serve as a ligand for selectins [13] [14] and help mediate cell-cell adhesion. [15] Accordingly, cell surface expression of LAMP1 is seen in cells with migratory or invasive functions, such as cytotoxic T cells, platelets and macrophages. [16] Cell surface expression of LAMP1 and LAMP2 is also often seen in cancer cells, [16] [17] particularly cancers with high metastatic potential, such as colon carcinoma and melanoma, [16] and has been shown to correlate with their metastatic potential. [11]

Role in cancer

LAMP1 expression on the surface of tumor cells has been observed for a number of different cancer types, particularly in highly metastatic cancers such as pancreatic cancer, [18] [19] colon cancer [16] [17] and melanoma. [16] [17] The structure of LAMP1 correlates with differentiation [8] [20] and metastatic potential [11] of tumor cells as it is thought to help mediate cell-cell adhesion [17] and migration. [15] [18] Indeed, the adhesion of some cancer cells to the extracellular matrix is mediated by interactions between LAMP1 and LAMP2 and E-selectin and galectins, with the LAMPs serving as ligands for the cell-adhesion molecules. [17]

Cathepsin D is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CTSD gene. This gene encodes a lysosomal aspartyl protease composed of a protein dimer of disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, both produced from a single protein precursor. Cathepsin D is an aspartic endo-protease that is ubiquitously distributed in lysosomes. The main function of cathepsin D is to degrade proteins and activate precursors of bioactive proteins in pre-lysosomal compartments. This proteinase, which is a member of the peptidase A1 family, has a specificity similar to but narrower than that of pepsin A. Transcription of the CTSD gene is initiated from several sites, including one that is a start site for an estrogen-regulated transcript. Mutations in this gene are involved in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including breast cancer and possibly Alzheimer disease. Homozygous deletion of the CTSD gene leads to early lethality in the postnatal phase. Deficiency of CTSD gene has been reported an underlying cause of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCL).

Lysosome-associated membrane glycoproteins (LAMPs) are integral membrane proteins, specific to lysosomes, and whose exact biological function is not yet clear. Structurally, the lamp proteins consist of two internally homologous lysosome-luminal domains separated by a proline-rich hinge region; at the C-terminal extremity there is a transmembrane region (TM) followed by a very short cytoplasmic tail (C). In each of the duplicated domains, there are two conserved disulfide bonds. This structure is schematically represented in the figure below.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Chaperone-mediated autophagy</span>

Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) refers to the chaperone-dependent selection of soluble cytosolic proteins that are then targeted to lysosomes and directly translocated across the lysosome membrane for degradation. The unique features of this type of autophagy are the selectivity on the proteins that are degraded by this pathway and the direct shuttling of these proteins across the lysosomal membrane without the requirement for the formation of additional vesicles.

The lysosomal cystine transporter (LCT) family is part of the TOG Superfamily and includes secondary transport proteins that are derived from animals, plants, fungi and other eukaryotes. They exhibit 7 putative transmembrane α-helical spanners (TMSs) and vary in size between about 200 and 500 amino acyl residues, although most have between 300 and 400 residues.
