Definition

Target type: biologicalprocess

The disaggregation of a chaperone-mediated autophagy translocation complex into its constituent components. [GO_REF:0000079, GOC:pad, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:18644871]

Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a selective form of autophagy that relies on the recognition of specific target proteins by chaperones, particularly the heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70). The translocation complex, responsible for delivering cargo to the lysosome, is formed by the interaction of the target protein, HSC70, the lysosome-associated membrane protein 2A (LAMP-2A), and the CMA receptor, located on the lysosomal membrane. The disassembly of this complex is crucial for the successful completion of CMA, allowing the cargo to be delivered into the lysosome for degradation.

The disassembly of the CMA translocation complex is a multi-step process that involves the following:

1. **Cargo recognition and binding:** The target protein, bearing a KFERQ-like motif, is recognized by HSC70. This recognition event triggers the recruitment of the CMA receptor, LAMP-2A, to the complex.

2. **Translocation to the lysosome:** The HSC70-target protein complex, with LAMP-2A bound, translocates to the lysosome. This step involves the movement of the complex through the cytoplasm and the fusion of the lysosomal membrane with the complex.

3. **Disassembly and cargo delivery:** Upon reaching the lysosome, the complex undergoes disassembly. This involves the release of the target protein from HSC70 and the removal of LAMP-2A from the receptor. The target protein is then delivered into the lysosomal lumen for degradation, while HSC70 and LAMP-2A are recycled back to the cytoplasm.

The exact mechanisms underlying the disassembly of the CMA translocation complex are still being investigated. However, it is believed that the process involves the following factors:

* **Lysosomal proteases:** Lysosomal proteases, such as cathepsins, are thought to play a role in degrading the target protein and releasing it from HSC70.
* **Lysosomal pH:** The acidic environment of the lysosome may promote the dissociation of the complex.
* **ATP hydrolysis:** HSC70 is an ATPase, and ATP hydrolysis may provide energy for the disassembly process.
* **Other lysosomal proteins:** Several other lysosomal proteins, such as LAMP-1 and LAMP-2B, may be involved in regulating the disassembly of the CMA translocation complex.

The disassembly of the CMA translocation complex is a critical step in the CMA pathway, ensuring the efficient delivery of cargo to the lysosome for degradation. The process involves complex interactions between multiple proteins and is influenced by a variety of factors, including the lysosomal environment and the activity of specific enzymes.'
