TPC2 also known as Two-Pore Channel 2 functions as an ion channel that conducts calcium ions within acidic intracellular compartments like lysosomes and endosomes. The mass of TPC2 is approximately 92 kDa. This protein is found in a variety of tissues with notable expression in the immune system brain and heart. TPC2 operates by forming a channel across the membranes of these organelles helping regulate ionic balance and maintaining the function of the endolysosomal system.
Biological function summary

TPC2 regulates the release of calcium within cells influencing many cellular processes such as trafficking and signaling. TPC2 can participate in complex formation with other proteins within the endolysosomal system affecting the calcium dynamics there. By helping control intracellular calcium levels TPC2 contributes to processes like autophagy and membrane trafficking which are critical for proper cellular function and metabolism.

Pathways

TPC2 plays a part in calcium signaling and autophagy pathways. It modulates calcium responses associated with the activation of lysosomal channels that are vital in these pathways. In calcium signaling TPC2's regulation affects proteins like NAADP and IP3Rs which contribute to the modulation of intracellular calcium levels and downstream signaling events. These interactions highlight its role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and responsiveness to environmental cues.

TPC2 has connections to conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Abnormal TPC2 function can lead to altered calcium homeostasis affecting cellular processes and potentially leading to these diseases. Research reveals that in some tumors changes in TPC2 expression alter the behavior of cancer cells implicating it in cancer progression. The protein's role in neurodegeneration also links to Tau protein and amyloid beta pathways as disruptions in calcium signaling and lysosomal function can exacerbate such disorders.

Target data

Intracellular channel initially characterized as a non-selective Ca(2+)-permeable channel activated by NAADP (nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate), it is also a highly-selective Na(+) channel activated directly by PI(3,5)P2 (phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate) (PubMed : 19387438, PubMed : 19620632, PubMed : 20880839, PubMed : 23063126, PubMed : 23394946, PubMed : 24502975, PubMed : 24776928, PubMed : 30860481, PubMed : 31825310, PubMed : 32167471). Localizes to the lysosomal and late endosome membranes where it regulates organellar membrane excitability, membrane trafficking, and pH homeostasis. Is associated with a plethora of physiological processes, including mTOR-dependent nutrient sensing, skin pigmentation and autophagy (PubMed : 18488028, PubMed : 23394946, PubMed : 32167471). Ion selectivity is not fixed but rather agonist-dependent and under defined ionic conditions, can be readily activated by both NAADP and PI(3,5)P2 (PubMed : 24502975, PubMed : 31825310, PubMed : 32167471). As calcium channel, it increases the pH in the lysosomal lumen, as sodium channel, it promotes lysosomal exocytosis (PubMed : 31825310, PubMed : 32167471). Plays a crucial role in endolysosomal trafficking in the endolysosomal degradation pathway and is potentially involved in the homeostatic control of many macromolecules and cell metabolites (By similarity) (PubMed : 18488028, PubMed : 19387438, PubMed : 19620632, PubMed : 20880839, PubMed : 23063126, PubMed : 23394946, PubMed : 24502975, PubMed : 24776928, PubMed : 31825310, PubMed : 32167471, PubMed : 32679067). Also expressed in melanosomes of pigmented cells where mediates a Ca(2+) channel and/or PI(3,5)P2-activated melanosomal Na(+) channel to acidify pH and inhibit tyrosinase activity required for melanogenesis and pigmentation (PubMed : 27140606). Unlike the voltage-dependent TPCN1, TPCN2 is voltage independent and can be activated solely by PI(3,5)P2 binding. In contrast, PI(4,5)P2, PI(3,4)P2, PI(3)P and PI(5)P have no obvious effect on channel activation (PubMed : 30860481).. (Microbial infection) During Ebola virus (EBOV) infection, controls the movement of endosomes containing virus particles and is required by EBOV to escape from the endosomal network into the cell cytoplasm.. (Microbial infection) Required for cell entry of coronaviruses SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, as well as human coronavirus EMC (HCoV-EMC), by endocytosis.
