| Abstract | Two-pore channels (TPCs) localize to the endolysosomal system and have recently emerged as targets for the Ca2+-mobilizing messenger, nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). However, their membrane topology is unknown. Using fluorescence protease protection assays, we show that human TPC1 and TPC2 possess cytosolic N and C termini and therefore an even number of transmembrane regions. Fluorophores placed at position 225 or 347 in TPC1, or 339 in TPC2 were also cytosolic, whereas a fluorophore at position 628 in TPC1 was luminal. These data together with sequence similarity to voltage-gated Ca2+ and Na+ channels, and unbiased in silico predictions are consistent with a topology in which two homologous domains are present, each comprising 6 transmembrane regions and a re-entrant pore loop. Immunocytochemical analysis of selectively permeabilized cells using antipeptide antibodies confirmed that the C-terminal tails of recombinant TPCs are cytosolic and that residues 240–254 of TPC2 prior to putative pore 1 are luminal. Both TPC1 and TPC2 are N-glycosylated with residues 599, 611, and 616 contributing to glycosylation of TPC1. This confirms the luminal position of these residues, which immediately precede the putative pore loop of the second domain. Mutation of all three glycosylation sites in TPC1 enhances NAADP-evoked cytosolic Ca2+ signals. Our data establish essential features of the topology of two-pore channels. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
