Protein PQLC1, encoded by the PQLC1 gene, is a lysosomal amino acid transporter associated with a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease called lysosomal amino acid transport disorder (LAAT1). PQLC1 is integral to the proper functioning of lysosomes, which are cellular organelles responsible for breaking down and recycling various biomolecules.
PQLC1 is known to play a critical role in facilitating the efflux of amino acids from the lysosome into the cytosol, thereby maintaining amino acid homeostasis within the cell. By transporting amino acids out of the lysosome, PQLC1 ensures that they are available for protein synthesis and other metabolic processes. The transporter activity of PQLC1 is believed to be crucial in conditions where lysosomal degradation of proteins is upregulated, such as during nutrient starvation or autophagy, a process where cells degrade and recycle their own components.Mutations in the PQLC1 gene can lead to the accumulation of amino acids within lysosomes, causing cellular dysfunction and contributing to the pathology of lysosomal storage disorders.
