The mechanisms orchestrating recycling of lysosomes through autophagic lysosome reformation (ALR) is incompletely understood. Previous data show that genetic depletion of BLOC1S1/GCN5L1/BORCS1 increases autolysosome (AL) accumulation. We postulated that this phenotype may manifest due to perturbed ALR. We explored this in control and bloc1s1 liver-specific knockout (LKO) mouse hepatocytes, showing that in response to nutrient-deprivation LKO’s fail to initiate ALR due to blunted lysosomal tubulation. As kinesin motor proteins and the intracellular cytoskeleton are requirements for tubular formation from ALs, we explored the interaction of BLOC1S1 with motor proteins and cytoskeletal factors. BLOC1S1 interacts with the ARL8B-KIF5B (GTPase and kinesin motor protein) complex to recruit KIF5B to ALs. Furthermore, BLOC1S1 interacts with the actin nucleation promoting factor WHAMM, which is an essential structural protein in the initiation of lysosomal tubulation (LT). Interestingly, the genetic reintroduction of BLOC1S1 rescues LT in LKO hepatocytes, but not when KIF5B is concurrently depleted. Finally, given the central role of MTORC1 signaling in ALR initiation, it was interesting that MTORC1 activity was increased despite the absence of LT in LKO hepatocytes. Concurrently, inhibition of MTORC1 abolished BLOC1S1 reconstitution-mediated rescue of LT in LKO hepatocytes. Taken together these data demonstrate that the functional interaction of BLOC1S1 with the kinesin binding complex and the actin cytoskeleton are a requirement for LT which, in parallel with MTORC1 signaling, initiate lysosome recycling via ALR.Abbreviations: 3-MA: 3-methyladenine; AL: autolysosome; ALR: autophagic lysosome reformation; ARL8B: ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 8B; ARPC2: actin related protein 2/3 complex, subunit 2; ATAT1/αTAT1: alpha tubulin acetyltransferase 1; AVd: autophagic vacuoles, degradative; BLOC1S1/GCN5L1: biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex-1, subunit 1; CQ: chloroquine; KIF5B: kinesin family member 5B; KLC1: kinesin light chain 1; LAMP1: lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1; LAMP2: lysosomal-associated membrane protein 2; LC3B-I: cytosolic form of LC3B; LC3B-II: lipidated form of LC3B; MAP1LC3B/LC3B: microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; LKO: liver-specific knockout; LIs: lysosome inhibitors; LT: lysosomal tubulation; Ly: lysosome; MTORC1: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase complex 1; PLEKHM2/SKIP: pleckstrin homology domain containing, family M (with RUN domain) member 2; Snapin: SNAP-associated protein; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1; SVPs: synaptic vesicle precursors; TFEB: transcription Factor EB; TFE3: transcription factor E3; WHAMM: WAS protein homolog associated with actin, golgi membranes and microtubules.
