Abstract
General control of amino acid synthesis 5 like 1 (GCN5L1) was named due to its loose sequence alignment to GCN5, a catalytic subunit of numerous histone N-acetyltransferase complexes. Further studies show that GCN5L1 has mitochondrial and cytosolic isoforms, although functional-domain sequence alignment and experimental studies show that GCN5L1 itself does not possess intrinsic acetyltransferase activity. Nevertheless, GCN5L1 does support protein acetylation in the mitochondria and cytosol and functions as a subunit of numerous intracellular multiprotein complexes that control intracellular vacuolar organelle positioning and function. The majority of GCN5L1 studies have focused on distinct intracellular functions and in this review, we summarize these findings as well as postulate what may be common features of the diverse phenotypes linked to GCN5L1.

GCN5L1 interacts with αTAT1 and RanBP2 to regulate hepatic α-tubulin acetylation and lysosome trafficking. J Cell Sci 2018; 131:jcs.221036.

Abstract
Although GCN5L1 (also known as BLOC1S1) facilitates mitochondrial protein acetylation and controls endosomal-lysosomal trafficking, the mechanisms underpinning these disparate effects are unclear. As microtubule acetylation modulates endosome-lysosome trafficking, we reasoned that exploring the role of GCN5L1 in this biology may enhance our understanding of GCN5L1-mediated protein acetylation. We show that α-tubulin acetylation is reduced in GCN5L1-knockout hepatocytes and restored by GCN5L1 reconstitution. Furthermore, GCN5L1 binds to the α-tubulin acetyltransferase αTAT1, and GCN5L1-mediated α-tubulin acetylation is dependent on αTAT1. Given that cytosolic GCN5L1 has been identified as a component of numerous multiprotein complexes, we explored whether novel interacting partners contribute to this regulation. We identify RanBP2 as a novel interacting partner of GCN5L1 and αTAT1. Genetic silencing of RanBP2 phenocopies GCN5L1 depletion by reducing α-tubulin acetylation, and we find that RanBP2 possesses a tubulin-binding domain, which recruits GCN5L1 to α-tubulin. Finally, we find that genetic depletion of GCN5L1 promotes perinuclear lysosome accumulation and histone deacetylase inhibition partially restores lysosomal positioning. We conclude that the interactions of GCN5L1, RanBP2 and αTAT1 function in concert to control α-tubulin acetylation and may contribute towards the regulation of cellular lysosome positioning. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Abstract
General control of amino acid synthesis 5 (GCN5) like-1 (GCN5L1) was identified as a novel gene with sequence homology to the histone acetyltransferase Gcn5. Subsequent protein-interaction studies identified GCN5L1 as a subunit of the multiprotein lysosome biogenesis complex, resulting in an alternative designation as biogenesis of lysosome-related organelle complex 1 subunit 1 (BLOS1 or BLOC1S1). Despite the distinct nomenclatures, GCN5L1/BLOS1 has been shown to play crucial roles in mitochondria, endosomes, lysosomes, and synaptic vesicle precursors (SVPs). GCN5L1/BLOS1 controls mitochondrial protein acetylation, modulates metabolic pathways, and orchestrates retrograde mitochondria-to-nucleus signaling. It also contributes to endosome-lysosome and vesicle trafficking and to endolysosomal function. Here we discuss the intracellular roles of GCN5L1/BLOS1 in the hope of linking mitochondria-centric effects to cytosolic vesicle biology.

Abstract
SIRT3 (sirtuin 3) modulates respiration via the deacetylation of lysine residues in electron transport chain proteins. Whether mitochondrial protein acetylation is controlled by a counter-regulatory program has remained elusive. In the present study we identify an essential component of this previously undefined mitochondrial acetyltransferase system. We show that GCN5L1 [GCN5 (general control of amino acid synthesis 5)-like 1; also known as Bloc1s1] counters the acetylation and respiratory effects of SIRT3. GCN5L1 is mitochondrial-enriched and displays significant homology with a prokaryotic acetyltransferase. Genetic knockdown of GCN5L1 blunts mitochondrial protein acetylation, and its reconstitution in intact mitochondria restores protein acetylation. GCN5L1 interacts with and promotes acetylation of SIRT3 respiratory chain targets and reverses global SIRT3 effects on mitochondrial protein acetylation, respiration and bioenergetics. The results of the present study identify GCN5L1 as a critical prokaryote-derived component of the mitochondrial acetyltransferase programme.

Abstract
The visual processing of humans is primarily reliant upon the sensitivity of cone photoreceptors to light during daylight conditions. This underscores the importance of understanding how cone photoreceptors maintain the ability to detect light. The vertebrate retina consists of a combination of both rod and cone photoreceptors. Subsequent to light exposure, both rod and cone photoreceptors are dependent upon the recycling of vitamin A to regenerate photopigments, the proteins responsible for detecting light. Metabolic processing of vitamin A in support of rod photopigment renewal, the so-called "rod visual cycle", is well established. However, the metabolic processing of vitamin A in support of cone photopigment renewal remains a challenge for characterization in the recently discovered "cone visual cycle". In this review we summarize the research that has defined the rod visual cycle and our current concept of the novel cone visual cycle. Here, we highlight the research that supports the existence of a functional cone-specific visual cycle: the identification of novel enzymatic activities that contribute to retinoid recycling, the observation of vitamin A recycling in cone-dominated retinas, and the localization of some of these activities to the Müller cell. In the opinions of the authors, additional research on the possible interactions between these two visual cycles in the duplex retina is needed to understand visual detection in the human retina.

Abstract
Absorption of light by rhodopsin or cone pigments in photoreceptors triggers photoisomerization of their universal chromophore, 11-cis-retinal, to all-trans-retinal. This photoreaction is the initial step in phototransduction that ultimately leads to the sensation of vision. Currently, a great deal of effort is directed toward elucidating mechanisms that return photoreceptors to the dark-adapted state, and processes that restore rhodopsin and counterbalance the bleaching of rhodopsin. Most notably, enzymatic isomerization of all-trans-retinal to 11-cis-retinal, called the visual cycle (or more properly the retinoid cycle), is required for regeneration of these visual pigments. Regeneration begins in rods and cones when all-trans-retinal is reduced to all-trans-retinol. The process continues in adjacent retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE), where a complex set of reactions converts all-trans-retinol to 11-cis-retinal. Although remarkable progress has been made over the past decade in understanding the phototransduction cascade, our understanding of the retinoid cycle remains rudimentary. The aim of this review is to summarize recent developments in our current understanding of the retinoid cycle at the molecular level, and to examine the relevance of these reactions to phototransduction.

Abstract
To elucidate the possible role of 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase in the visual cycle and/or 9-cis-retinoic acid biosynthesis, we generated mice carrying a targeted disruption of the 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase gene. Homozygous 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase mutants developed normally, including their retinas. There was no appreciable loss of photoreceptors. Recently, mutations in the 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase gene in humans have been associated with fundus albipunctatus. In 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase knockout mice, the appearance of the fundus was normal and punctata typical of this human hereditary ocular disease were not present. A second typical symptom associated with this disease is delayed dark adaptation. Homozygous 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase mutants showed normal rod and cone responses. 11-cis-Retinol dehydrogenase knockout mice were capable of dark adaptation. At bleaching levels under which patients suffering from fundus albipunctatus could be detected unequivocally, 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase knockout animals displayed normal dark adaptation kinetics. However, at high bleaching levels, delayed dark adaptation in 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase knockout mice was noticed. Reduced 11-cis-retinol oxidation capacity resulted in 11-cis-retinol/13-cis-retinol and 11-cis-retinyl/13-cis-retinyl ester accumulation. Compared with wild-type mice, a large increase in the 11-cis-retinyl ester concentration was noticed in 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase knockout mice. In the murine retinal pigment epithelium, there has to be an additional mechanism for the biosynthesis of 11-cis-retinal which partially compensates for the loss of the 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase activity. 11-cis-Retinyl ester formation is an important part of this adaptation process. Functional consequences of the loss of 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase activity illustrate important differences in the compensation mechanisms between mice and humans. We furthermore demonstrate that upon 11-cis-retinol accumulation, the 13-cis-retinol concentration also increases. This retinoid is inapplicable to the visual processes, and we therefore speculate that it could be an important catabolic metabolite and its biosynthesis could be part of a process involved in regulating 11-cis-retinol concentrations within the retinal pigment epithelium of 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase knockout mice.

Abstract
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the most potent naturally occurring androgen, and its production in the testis may have important consequences in developmental and reproductive processes. In the rat testis, three factors can contribute to intracellular DHT levels: 1) synthesis of DHT from T by 5alpha-reductase, 2) conversion of DHT to 5alpha-androstane-3alpha, 17beta-diol (3alpha-DIOL) by the reductive activity of 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3alpha-HSD), and 3) conversion of 3alpha-DIOL by an oxidative 3alpha-HSD activity. While the type I 3alpha-HSD enzyme (3alpha-HSD1 or AKR1C9) is an oxidoreductase in vitro and could theoretically be responsible for factors 2 and 3, we have shown previously that rat Leydig cells have two 3alpha-HSD activities: a cytosolic NADP(H)- dependent activity, characteristic of 3alpha-HSD1, and a microsomal NAD(H)-dependent activity. The two activities were separable by both developmental and biochemical criteria, but the identity of the second enzyme was unknown. To identify the microsomal NAD(H)-dependent 3alpha-HSD in rat Leydig cells, degenerate primers were used to amplify a number of short-chain alcohol dehydrogenases. Sequence analysis of cloned PCR products identified retinol dehydrogenase type II (RoDH2) as the prevalent species in purified Leydig cells. RoDH2 cDNA was subcloned into expression vectors and transiently transfected into CHOP and COS-1 cells. Its properties were compared with transiently transfected 3alpha-HSD1. When measured in intact CHOP and COS-1 cells, RoDH2 cDNA produced a protein that catalyzed the conversions of 3alpha-DIOL to DHT and androsterone to androstanedione, but not the reverse reactions. Therefore, the 3alpha-HSD activity of RoDH2 was exclusively oxidative. In contrast, type I 3alpha-HSD cDNA produced a protein that was exclusively a 3alpha-HSD reductase. In cell homogenates and subcellular fractions, RoDH2 catalyzed both 3alpha-HSD oxidation and reduction reactions that were NAD(H) dependent, and the enzyme activities were located in the microsomes. Type I 3alpha-HSD also catalyzed both oxidation and reduction, but was located in the cytosol and was NADP(H) dependent. We conclude that type I 3alpha-HSD and RoDH2 have distinct 3alpha-HSD activities with opposing catalytic directions, thereby controlling the rates of DHT production by Leydig cells.

Abstract
Recent studies of the human, mouse and bovine genes for 11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase (11cRDH) and human and mouse 9-cis-retinol dehydrogenase (9cRDH) suggest that they are homologs of the same enzyme. This conclusion is inconsistent with earlier literature indicating that 11cRDH is expressed solely in the eye and does not utilize 9-cis-retinol as a substrate. We have compared directly the kinetic properties of recombinant human and mouse 9cRDH with those of bovine 11cRDH for 9-cis- and 11-cis-retinol and investigated the inhibitory properties of 13-cis-retinoic acid on each of these enzymes. Human and mouse 9cRDH and bovine 11cRDH have very similar kinetic properties towards 9-cis- and 11-cis-retinol oxidation and they respond identically to 13-cis-retinoic acid inhibition. Our biochemical data are consistent with the conclusion that 9cRDH and 11cRDH are the same enzyme.
