The protein deficient in Lowe syndrome is a phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 5-phosphatase.

Abstract: Lowe syndrome, also known as oculocerebrorenal syndrome, is caused by mutations in the X chromosomeencoded OCRL gene. The Lowe syndrome, also known as oculocerebrorenal syndrome, is an X chromosome-linked disorder that is characterized by severe mental retardation, areflexia, hypotonia, a variety of eye abnormalities, and a renal Fanconi syndrome with impaired reabsorption of glucose, amino acids, phosphate urate, and bicarbonate. Patients have renal tubular acidosis, metabolic bone disease, and growth failu… Show more

“…In OCRL and INPP5B the central inositol 5-phosphatase domain, which uses PI(4,5)P 2 and PI (3,4,5)P 3 as the preferred substrates, is flanked at the C-terminal side by an ASH domain and a catalytically inactive RhoGAP-like domain [7,8]. OCRL was initially localized to the Golgi complex [9,10].…”

“…In mammals there are a number of other 5-phosphatases, most of which have been investigated for roles in signal transduction or apoptosis, but not membrane traffic. However, the OCRL gene product that is defective in the human disease Lowe syndrome is a 5-phosphatase that localizes to the TGN (87,344,408). Kidney cells from patients with Lowe syndrome have elevated PtdIns(4,5)P 2 levels (407) as well as elevated serum levels of lysosomal enzymes (360), raising the possibility that there is a defect in sorting proteins at the TGN.…”

“…Two human diseases are caused by mutations in an enzyme that selectively dephosphorylates the inositol ring at the 5′ position, using phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P 2 ] and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P 3 ], two phosphoinositides concentrated in the plasma membrane, as its preferred substrates (10). One such disease is oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (hence the enzyme name "OCRL") (3,11).…”
