description: Mtmr9 (myotubularin-related protein 9) is a catalytically inactive member of the myotubularin
  family of phosphoinositide 3-phosphatases. It has an N-terminal PH-GRAM domain, a myotubularin phosphatase-like
  domain in which the catalytic cysteine and arginine of the CX5R loop are replaced (HGTEGTDST), and a
  C-terminal coiled coil. It acts as a noncatalytic regulatory subunit of active myotubularins. In mouse
  neuroblastoma cells it co-purifies with Mtmr7; its coiled coil is sufficient for this interaction, and
  binding raises the inositol 1,3-bisphosphate 3-phosphatase activity of Mtmr7. Mouse Mtmr9 also homodimerizes
  and heterodimerizes with Mtmr6. It is a cytoplasmic protein that is recruited to membrane ruffles during
  EGF-induced macropinocytosis, and this recruitment depends on its N-terminal GRAM region. Its human
  ortholog, which is in the same PANTHER subfamily and has an identical inactive loop, increases the catalytic
  rate, substrate preference and stability of MTMR6 and MTMR8. Through these partners it restrains autophagy,
  protects against DNA damage-induced apoptosis and is needed for macropinocytosis in cultured cells.
  These partner-specific roles are expected to be conserved in mouse but have not been tested in the mouse
  protein.

  review:
    summary: Mouse Mtmr9 was identified by mass spectrometry as the protein co-immunoprecipitating with
      Mtmr7 from N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells; its coiled coil is sufficient for the interaction.
    action: MODIFY
    reason: 'Generic protein binding is uninformative. The partner (PR:Q9Z2C9, mouse Mtmr7) is an active
      myotubularin lipid phosphatase, so the informative molecular function is phosphatase binding (GO:0019902).
      The functional consequence of the binding, activation of Mtmr7, is captured separately by phosphatase
      activator activity. The issue is term scope: ''protein phosphatase binding'' and its children (PP1,
      PP2A, calcineurin binding and so on) denote phosphatases that act on phosphoproteins, whereas the
      Mtmr9 partners Mtmr6, Mtmr7 and Mtmr8 are phosphoinositide 3-phosphatases. The parent term phosphatase
      binding (GO:0019902) states the supported claim without implying a protein substrate. The same replacement
      is used on every partner-binding row here and in the human MTMR9 review, and the question is raised
      in suggested_questions.'

    summary: Mtmr9 binds the myotubularin lipid phosphatases Mtmr6, Mtmr7 and Mtmr8.
    action: MODIFY
    reason: 'The binding itself is sound and, for Mtmr7, experimentally shown in mouse (PMID:12890864).
      The issue is term scope: ''protein phosphatase binding'' and its children (PP1, PP2A, calcineurin
      binding and so on) denote phosphatases that act on phosphoproteins, whereas the Mtmr9 partners Mtmr6,
      Mtmr7 and Mtmr8 are phosphoinositide 3-phosphatases. The parent term phosphatase binding (GO:0019902)
      states the supported claim without implying a protein substrate. The same replacement is used on

      mouse Mtmr9 is correctly inside that clade, so only the term choice is at issue.'

suggested_questions:
- question: Should binding of an inactive myotubularin to an active myotubularin lipid phosphatase be
    annotated to GO:0019903 protein phosphatase binding (as PAINT does at PTN002246859) or to the parent
    GO:0019902 phosphatase binding? The children of GO:0019903 all name protein-substrate phosphatases.
- question: In mouse tissues where Mtmr6, Mtmr7 and Mtmr8 are co-expressed (for example brain, where Mtmr7
    is enriched), how is the Mtmr9 pool partitioned among them, and does the partner determine whether
    Mtmr9 acts on PI3P, PI(3,5)P2 or soluble Ins(1,3)P2?
suggested_experiments:
- hypothesis: Mtmr9 is required in vivo for normal Mtmr6/Mtmr7/Mtmr8 protein levels and 3-phosphoinositide
    turnover.
  description: Generate Mtmr9 knockout mice or primary cells; measure partner protein half-lives, PI3P,
    PI(3,5)P2 and PI5P levels, and rescue with wild-type versus coiled-coil-deleted Mtmr9.
  experiment_type: genetic perturbation
- hypothesis: The GRAM domain of Mtmr9 recruits the Mtmr6-Mtmr9 complex to ruffles to complete macropinocytosis.
