Summary

PSAP (prosaposin, HGNC:9498) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q22.1, encoding Prosaposin (P07602). Saposin-A and saposin-C stimulate the hydrolysis of glucosylceramide by beta-glucosylceramidase (EC 3.2.1.45) and galactosylceramide by beta-galactosylceramidase (EC 3.2.1.46).

This gene encodes a highly conserved preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate four main cleavage products including saposins A, B, C, and D. Each domain of the precursor protein is approximately 80 amino acid residues long with nearly identical placement of cysteine residues and glycosylation sites. Saposins A-D localize primarily to the lysosomal compartment where they facilitate the catabolism of glycosphingolipids with short oligosaccharide groups. The precursor protein exists both as a secretory protein and as an integral membrane protein and has neurotrophic activities. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Gaucher disease and metachromatic leukodystrophy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes an isoform that is proteolytically processed.

Function. Saposin-A and saposin-C stimulate the hydrolysis of glucosylceramide by beta-glucosylceramidase (EC 3.2.1.45) and galactosylceramide by beta-galactosylceramidase (EC 3.2.1.46). Saposin-C apparently acts by combining with the enzyme and acidic lipid to form an activated complex, rather than by solubilizing the substrate. Saposin-B stimulates the hydrolysis of galacto-cerebroside sulfate by arylsulfatase A (EC 3.1.6.8), GM1 gangliosides by beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) and globotriaosylceramide by alpha-galactosidase A (EC 3.2.1.22). Saposin-B forms a solubilizing complex with the substrates of the sphingolipid hydrolases. Saposin-D is a specific sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase activator (EC 3.1.4.12). Behaves as a myelinotrophic and neurotrophic factor, these effects are mediated by its G-protein-coupled receptors, GPR37 and GPR37L1, undergoing ligand-mediated internalization followed by ERK phosphorylation signaling. Saposins are specific low-molecular mass non-enzymic proteins, they participate in the lysosomal degradation of sphingolipids, which takes place by the sequential action of specific hydrolases.

Subunit / interactions. Saposin-B is a homodimer. Prosaposin exists as a roughly half-half mixture of monomers and disulfide-linked dimers. Monomeric prosaposin interacts (via C-terminus) with sortilin/SORT1, the interaction is required for targeting to lysosomes. Interacts with GRN; facilitates lysosomal delivery of progranulin from the extracellular space and the biosynthetic pathway.

Subcellular location. Lysosome Secreted.

Post-translational modifications. The lysosomal precursor is proteolytically processed to 4 small peptides, which are similar to each other and are sphingolipid hydrolase activator proteins. N-linked glycans show a high degree of microheterogeneity. The one residue extended Saposin-B-Val is only found in 5% of the chains.

Disease relevance. Combined saposin deficiency (PSAPD) [MIM:611721] An autosomal recessive storage disorder characterized by hepatosplenomegaly and severe neurologic disease, due to absence of all saposins. PSAPD has a fatal outcome in infancy. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Metachromatic leukodystrophy due to saposin B deficiency (MLDSAPB) [MIM:249900] A form of metachromatic leukodystrophy biochemically characterized by tissue accumulation of cerebroside-3-sulfate, saposin B deficiency, and normal arylsulfatase A activity. Clinical manifestations include periventricular white matter abnormalities, demyelination, and peripheral neuropathy. Additional neurological features include dysarthria, ataxic gait, psychomotor regression, seizures, cognitive decline and spastic quadriparesis. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Gaucher disease, atypical, due to saposin C deficiency (GDSAPC) [MIM:610539] A disease characterized by marked glucosylceramide accumulation in the spleen without having a deficiency of glucosylceramide-beta glucosidase characteristic of classic Gaucher disease. Gaucher disease is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by skeletal deterioration, hepatosplenomegaly, and organ dysfunction. There are several subtypes based on the presence and severity of neurological involvement. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Krabbe disease, atypical, due to saposin A deficiency (KRBSAPA) [MIM:611722] An autosomal recessive disorder of galactosylceramide metabolism. Clinical features include neurologic regression around age 3 months, loss of spontaneous movements, hyporeflexia, generalized brain atrophy, and diffuse white matter dysmyelination. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Defects in PSAP saposin-D region are found in a variant of Tay-Sachs disease (GM2-gangliosidosis). Parkinson disease 24, autosomal dominant (PARK24) [MIM:619491] An autosomal dominant form of Parkinson disease, a complex neurodegenerative disorder characterized by bradykinesia, resting tremor, muscular rigidity and postural instability, as well as by a clinically significant response to treatment with levodopa. The pathology involves the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and the presence of Lewy bodies (intraneuronal accumulations of aggregated proteins), in surviving neurons in various areas of the brain. PARK24 shows incomplete penetrance. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Miscellaneous. Saposin-B co-purifies with 1 molecule of phosphatidylethanolamine.
