Lack of Acidification in Mycobacterium Phagosomes Produced by Exclusion of the Vesicular Proton-ATPase
Abstract
The success of Mycobacterium species as pathogens depends on their ability to maintain an infection inside the phagocytic vacuole of the macrophage. Although the bacteria are reported to modulate maturation of their intracellular vacuoles, the nature of such modifications is unknown. In this study, vacuoles formed around Mycobacterium avium failed to acidify below pH 6.3 to 6.5. Immunoelectron microscopy of infected macrophages and immunoblotting of isolated phagosomes showed that Mycobacterium vacuoles acquire the lysosomal membrane protein LAMP-1, but not the vesicular proton-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) responsible for phagosomal acidification. This suggests either a selective inhibition of fusion with proton-ATPase-containing vesicles or a rapid removal of the complex from Mycobacterium phagosomes.

In the citing paper
“The early phagosome lacks the proton pumping vesicular ATPase (vATPase) and is therefore characterized by a mildly acidic pH of 6–6.5 (21).”
From Macrophage defense mechanisms against intracellular bacteria (2015) · cites this paper as [21]
In the citing paper
“NRAMP1 is a transmembrane transporter expressed in late phagosomes, where it exerts multiple functions including regulation of phagosome acidification, which is, however, exerted mainly by v-ATPase [144] along with pH-dependent shuttling of divalent metals, including Fe, zinc and manganese, across the phagolysosomal membrane [145-147] (Fig 3).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
