GPN does not release lysosomal Ca 2+ but evokes Ca 2+ release from the ER by increasing the cytosolic pH independently of cathepsin C.

Abstrakt: | The dipeptide glycyl-l-phenylalanine 2-naphthylamide (GPN) is widely used to perturb lysosomes because its cleavage by the lysosomal enzyme cathepsin C is proposed to rupture lysosomal membranes. We show that GPN evokes a sustained increase in lysosomal pH (pH Competing Interests: Competing interestsThe authors declare no competing or financial interests. (© 2019.
