Pitrilysin metallopeptidase 1 also known as presequence protease, mitochondrial (PreP) and metalloprotease 1 (MTP-1) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PITRM1 gene.[1][2][3] It is also sometimes called metalloprotease 1 (MP1).PreP facilitates proteostasis by utilizing an ~13300-A(3) catalytic chamber to degrade toxic peptides, including mitochondrial presequences and β-amyloid.[4] Deficiency of PreP is found associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Reduced levels of PreP via RNAi mediated knockdown have been shown to lead to defective maturation of the protein Frataxin.[5]

Structure

Gene

The PITRM1 gene is located at chromosome 10q15.2, consisting of 28 exons.

Protein

PreP is a 117 kDa M16C enzyme that is widely expressed in human tissues.[6] PreP is composed of PreP-N (aa 33-509) and PreP-C (aa 576-1037) domains, which are connected by an extended helical hairpin (aa 510-575). Its structure demonstrates that substrate selection by size-exclusion is a conserved mechanism in M16C proteases.[4]

Function

PreP is an Zn2+-dependent and ATP-independent metalloprotease, it doesn’t select substrates on the basis of post-translational modifications or embedded degradation tags.[7][8][9] Instead, it uses a negatively charged catalytic chamber to engulf substrates peptides of up to ~65 residues while excluding larger, folded proteins.[10][11] It primarily localizes to the mitochondrial matrix, and cuts a range of peptides into recyclable fragments.[12][13] The substrates of PreP are vital to proteostasis, as they can insert to mitochondrial membranes, disrupting electrical potential and uncoupling respiration.[14][15] Thus deletion of PRTRM1 leads to a delayed growth phenotype.[16][17] Notabley, PreP degrades several functionally relevant Aβ species, the aggregates of which are toxic to the neuron and play a key role in AD pathogenesis.[18][10][19]

Clinical significance

PreP is the Aβ-degrading protease in mitochondria. Immune-depletion of PreP in brain mitochondria prevents degradation of mitochondrial Aβ, and PreP activity is found diminished in AD patients.[4] It has been reported that the loss of PreP activity is due to methionine oxidation and this study provides a rational basis for therapeutic intervention in conditions characterized by excessive oxidation of PreP.[20] A recent study also suggests that PreP regulates islet amyloid polypeptide in beta cells.[21] Two siblings carrying a homozygous PITRM1 missense mutation (c.548G>A, p.Arg183Gln) were reported to be associated with an autosomal recessive, slowly progressive syndrome. Clinical features include mental retardation, spinocerebellar ataxia, cognitive decline and psychosis.[22] A mouse model hemizygous for PITRM1 displayed progressive ataxia which was suggested to be linked to brain degenerative lesions, including accumulation of Aβ‐positive amyloid deposits. Recently, two brothers from a consanguineous family presenting with childhood-onset recessive cerebellar pathology were shown to carry a homozygous mutation in PITRM1 (c.2795C>T, p.T931M). This mutation resulted in 95% reduction in PITRM1 protein.[23] PITRM1 knockdown was shown to lead to reduced levels of mature Frataxin protein,[24] a protein that when deficient causes Friedreich's ataxia, and may be implicated in pathology in patients carrying PITRM1 mutations.

Interactions

PITRM1 has been shown to interact with the following proteins: CCL22, CGB2, DDX41, DEFB104A, HDHD3, MRPL12, NDUFV2, PRDX6, PRKCSH, RARS2, RIF1, SUCLG2, TEKT3, TERF2, and VAPB.[25]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of PITRM1 function. A conditional knockout mouse line called Pitrm1tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi was generated at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.[26] Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen[27] to determine the effects of deletion.[28][29][30][31] Additional screens performed: - In-depth immunological phenotyping[32]
