ABSTRACT
ATG9A is the only integral membrane protein among core autophagy-related (ATG) proteins. We previously found that ATG9A does not co-assemble into synaptophysin-positive vesicles, but rather, localizes to a distinct pool of vesicles within synapsin condensates in both fibroblasts and nerve terminals. The endocytic origin of these vesicles further suggests the existence of different intracellular sorting or segregation mechanisms for ATG9A and synaptophysin in cells. However, the precise underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. In this follow-up study, we investigated the endosomal localization of these two proteins by exploiting the advantages of a Rab5 mutant that induces the formation of enlarged endosomes. Notably, ATG9A and synaptophysin intermix perfectly and do not segregate on giant endosomes, indicating that the separation of these two proteins is not solely caused by the inherent properties of the proteins, but possibly by other unknown factors.
