Function

Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the 5-position phosphate of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) and phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3), with the greatest catalytic activity towards PtdIns(4,5)P2 (PubMed:10764818, PubMed:15474001, PubMed:7761412, PubMed:9430698). Able also to hydrolyze the 5-phosphate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and of inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (PubMed:25869668, PubMed:7761412). Regulates traffic in the endosomal pathway by regulating the specific pool of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate that is associated with endosomes (PubMed:21971085). Involved in primary cilia assembly (PubMed:22228094, PubMed:22543976). Acts as a regulator of phagocytosis, hydrolyzing PtdIns(4,5)P2 to promote phagosome closure, through attenuation of PI3K signaling (PubMed:22072788).

Activity summary

The OCRL protein also known as oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe protein is a phosphatidylinositol 45-bisphosphate 5-phosphatase involved in cellular membrane trafficking. It has a molecular mass of approximately 105 kDa. Localization of OCRL occurs in several cellular compartments including the endosomes and the Golgi apparatus. This protein is widely expressed in tissues such as the brain kidney and eyes. Scientists often study OCRL to better understand its role in cellular functions and associated disorders.

Biological function summary

OCRL participates in the regulation of phosphoinositide metabolism by dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol 45-bisphosphate an important signaling lipid. OCRL is a member of the inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family and associates with clathrin-mediated endocytosis complexes. The protein ensures proper vesicular trafficking and maintenance of cell membrane dynamics impacting processes like endocytosis and ciliogenesis. Researchers focus on understanding OCRL's interactions and dynamics to comprehend its contribution to these processes.

Pathways

OCRL plays a significant role in the phosphoinositide signaling pathway and is integral to cellular trafficking pathways. In the phosphoinositide signaling pathway OCRL modulates the availability of phosphatidylinositol 45-bisphosphate interacting with proteins like APPL1 and Rab GTPases. In cellular trafficking pathways OCRL coordinates with proteins such as clathrin and dynamin to regulate endocytosis and endosomal function. Understanding OCRL's placement within these pathways provides insight into its impact on cellular homeostasis.

Associated diseases and disorders

OCRL mutations are linked to Lowe syndrome and Dent disease both of which involve renal and ocular complications. Lowe syndrome characterized by congenital cataracts intellectual disabilities and renal Fanconi syndrome directly associates with OCRL dysfunction. The OCRL protein interacts with clathrin and Rab GTPases contributing to the pathogenesis of these disorders by disrupting normal vesicle trafficking processes. Research on OCRL-related mechanisms in these diseases seeks to unravel potential therapeutic targets and interventions.
