Abstract
Genetic variants in TMEM106B, coding for a transmembrane protein of unknown function, have been identified as critical genetic modulators in various neurodegenerative diseases with a strong effect in patients with frontotemporal degeneration. The luminal domain of TMEM106B can form amyloid-like fibrils upon proteolysis. Whether this luminal domain is generated under physiological conditions and which protease(s) are involved in shedding remain unclear. We developed a commercially available antibody against the luminal domain of TMEM106B, allowing a detailed survey of the proteolytic processing under physiological conditions in cellular models and TMEM106B-related mouse models. Moreover, fibrillary TMEM106B was detected in human autopsy material. We find that the luminal domain is generated by multiple lysosomal cysteine-type proteases. Cysteine-type proteases perform additional C-terminal trimming, for which experimental evidence has been lacking. The presented results allow an in-depth perception of the processing of TMEM106B, a prerequisite to understanding factors leading to fibril formation.
期刊介绍:
Cell Reports publishes high-quality research across the life sciences and focuses on new biological insight as its primary criterion for publication. The journal offers three primary article types: Reports, which are shorter single-point articles, research articles, which are longer and provide deeper mechanistic insights, and resources, which highlight significant technical advances or major informational datasets that contribute to biological advances. Reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields are also accepted.
The Cell Reports Portfolio includes gold open-access journals that cover life, medical, and physical sciences, and its mission is to make cutting-edge research and methodologies available to a wide readership.
The journal's professional in-house editors work closely with authors, reviewers, and the scientific advisory board, which consists of current and future leaders in their respective fields. The advisory board guides the scope, content, and quality of the journal, but editorial decisions are independently made by the in-house scientific editors of Cell Reports.
