TPC2 rescues lysosomal storage in mucolipidosis type IV, Niemann–Pick type C1, and Batten disease
Lysosomes are cell organelles that degrade macromolecules to recycle their components. If lysosomal degradative function is impaired, e.g., due to mutations in lysosomal enzymes or membrane proteins, lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) can develop.

Summary: During tumor progression, lysosome function is often maladaptively upregulated to match the high energy demand required for cancer cell hyper-proliferation and invasion. Here, we report that mucolipin TRP channel 1 (TRPML1), a lysosomal Ca2+ and

TRPMLs: in sickness and in health
TRPML1, TRPML2 and TRPML3 belong to the mucolipin family of the TRP superfamily of ion channels. The founding member of this family, TRPML1, was cloned during the search for the genetic determinants of the lysosomal storage disease mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV).

TRP channels: Role in neurodegenerative diseases and therapeutic targets
TRP (Transient receptor potential) channels are integral membrane proteins consisting of a superfamily of cation channels that allow permeability of both monovalent and divalent cations. TRP channels are subdivided into six subfamilies: TRPC, TRPV, TRPM,

The cation channel TRPML1 is an important regulator of lysosomal function and autophagy. Loss of TRPML1 is associated with neurodegeneration and lysosomal storage disease, while temporary inhibition of this ion channel has been proposed to be beneficial ...

Organellar Zn2+ Homeostasis and the Role of TRPML Channels in Neuronal Lysosome Physiology and Axonal Transport [PDF]
Zinc (Zn2+) is crucial for proper cellular function, and as such it is important to measure and track Zn2+ dynamics in living cells. Fluorescent sensors have been used to estimate Zn2+ content of subcellular compartments, but little is known about ...

Differential ion selectivity and disease-associated dysfunction of TRPML channels revealed by patient and engineered mutants. [PDF]
The endolysosomal transient receptor potential mucolipin (TRPML) channels play key roles in regulating lysosomal trafficking, signaling, and function. While mutations in TRPML1 cause mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV), the functional consequences of many disease-associated mutations remain unclear.
