Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionThe cup-5 gene encodes an ortholog of the human mucolipin 1 gene; cup-5 is required for viability, endo-lysosomal transport and the normal degradation of lysosomes; cup-5 mutants also show increased cell death, which might be a secondary consequence of lysosomal dysfunction; the inactivation of mrp-4 which is a ABCC transporter rescues most of the defects in cup-5 mutants, suggesting that the accumulation of ABC transporters in the absence of cup-5, may contribute to the lysosomal defects; cup-5 localizes to lysosomes.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00004655

Automated_descriptionPredicted to enable NAADP-sensitive calcium-release channel activity and phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cuticle development involved in collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle molting cycle; determination of adult lifespan; and lysosomal lumen acidification. Located in endolysosome and lysosomal membrane. Expressed in coelomocyte; head; intestinal cell; and neurons. Used to study mucolipidosis type IV. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glycoproteinosis and mucolipidosis type IV. Is an ortholog of human MCOLN1 (mucolipin TRP cation channel 1); MCOLN2 (mucolipin TRP cation channel 2); and MCOLN3 (mucolipin TRP cation channel 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Disease_relevanceThe human ortholog of the elegans cup-5 gene, mucolipin 1 is mutated in Mucolipidosis type IV, which is an an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder; human mucolipin 1 functions as a pH-modulated non-selective cation channel; studies in C. elegans indicate that cup-5/Mucolipin 1 is required for proper functioning of the lysosome, loss of cup-5 leads to lysosomal degradation, and that the accumulation of ABC transporters (mrp-4 in elegans) in lysosomes, might be a general mechanism by which an initial lysosomal defect is exacerbated.Homo sapiensPaper_evidenceWBPaper00004655
