01

Overview

ATPase phospholipid transporting 9A (ATP9A) is a type IV P-type ATPase (P4-ATPase) that localizes to early/recycling endosomes and the trans-Golgi network. It is implicated in the recycling of cargo proteins (such as transferrin receptor and glucose transporter 1) from endosomes to the plasma membrane, as well as in retrograde transport from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus. ATP9A is thought to participate in the formation of endosomal carriers, potentially by generating membrane curvature through phospholipid translocation, although its exact lipid substrate is not fully confirmed. Genetic disruptions can lead to neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by poor growth and behavioral abnormalities[1][2][5]. ATP9A is considered a putative drug target in cellular transport and development research, but approved drugs that directly target it have not been reported.
