VMI2 (Vacuolar Membrane Insertion Protein 2) is a recombinant protein engineered to study membrane dynamics and intracellular trafficking mechanisms, particularly within vacuolar/lysosomal systems. Originally identified in yeast models, VMI2 homologs are evolutionarily conserved and play roles in regulating membrane fusion, organelle acidification, and autophagic processes. Its recombinant form is typically produced in bacterial (e.g., E. coli) or mammalian expression systems, enabling structural-functional studies and high-throughput screening for therapeutic targets.
The protein contains conserved domains critical for interacting with SNARE complexes and vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase), machinery essential for vesicle docking and luminal pH regulation. Researchers utilize VMI2 recombinant proteins to dissect molecular pathways in diseases linked to lysosomal dysfunction, such as neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's, Parkinson's) and lysosomal storage diseases. Its overexpression or inhibition in cellular models helps elucidate its role in autophagy-lysosome crosstalk, nutrient sensing, and cellular stress responses.
In drug discovery, VMI2 serves as a tool to identify modulators of membrane repair pathways or lysosomal enzyme activity. Recent studies also explore its potential in cancer research, as lysosomal membrane stability influences chemoresistance and metastatic processes. The recombinant protein’s purity and post-translational modifications (e.g., glycosylation patterns in mammalian-expressed variants) are rigorously characterized to ensure experimental reproducibility. Ongoing work aims to crystallize VMI2 for atomic-level insights into its membrane-insertion mechanisms, potentially informing novel biologics targeting membrane-trafficking disorders.
