Numerous zinc ectoenzymes are metalated by zinc and activated in the compartments of the early secretory pathway before reaching their destination. Zn transporter (ZNT) proteins located in these compartments are essential for ectoenzyme activation. We have previously reported that ZNT proteins, specifically ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers, play critical roles in the activation of zinc ectoenzymes, such as alkaline phosphatases (ALPs), by mobilizing cytosolic zinc into these compartments. However, this process remains incompletely understood. Here, using genetically-engineered chicken DT40 cells, we first determined that Zrt/Irt-like protein (ZIP) transporters that are localized to the compartments of the early secretory pathway play only a minor role in the ALP activation process. These transporters included ZIP7, ZIP9, and ZIP13, performing pivotal functions in maintaining cellular homeostasis by effluxing zinc out of the compartments. Next, using purified ALP proteins, we showed that zinc metalation on ALP produced in DT40 cells lacking ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers is impaired. Finally, by genetically disrupting both ZNT5 and ZNT7 in human HAP1 cells, we directly demonstrated that the tissue-nonspecific ALP-activating functions of both ZNT complexes are conserved in human cells. Furthermore, using mutant HAP1 cells, we uncovered a previously-unrecognized and unique spatial regulation of ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimer formation, wherein ZNT5 recruits ZNT6 to the Golgi apparatus to form the heterodimeric complex. These findings fill in major gaps in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying zinc ectoenzyme activation in the compartments of the early secretory pathway.

Zinc-requiring ectoenzymes, including both secreted and membrane-bound enzymes, are considered to capture zinc in their active site for their activation in the early secretory pathway. This idea has been confirmed by our studies conducted using tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP), which is elaborately activated by means of a two-step mechanism by zinc transporter 5 (ZNT5)-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers, through protein stabilization followed by enzyme activation with zinc in the early secretory pathway. However, the molecular basis of the activation process in other zinc-requiring ectoenzymes remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated this activation process by using three cancer- promoting zinc-requiring ectoenzymes, autotaxin (ATX), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), and carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX), and the chicken DT40 cell mutants that we generated; we specifically focused on clarifying whether the same or a similar activation mechanism operates in these ectoenzymes. ATX activation required ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers in a manner similar to TNAP activation, although the protein stability of ATX was differently regulated from that of TNAP. MMP9 required ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers for its activation as well as secretion; MMP9 was not secreted into the spent medium unless both zinc-transport complexes were present. Finally, CAIX activation by zinc was mediated not only by ZNT5-ZNT6 heterodimers and ZNT7 homodimers but also by ZNT4 homodimers; thus, these three zinc-transport complexes redundantly contribute to CAIX activation. Our results provide pivotal insights into the activation processes of zinc-requiring ectoenzymes, and furthermore, they offer novel insights for potential cancer therapy applications given the cancer-promoting potencies of ATX, MMP9, and CAIX.
