Background:  The inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases selectively remove the phosphate from the 5-position of various phosphatidylinositols, which generate second messengers in response to extracellular signals. OCRL1 is a type II 5-phosphatase that is mutated in the oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (OCRL). OCRL is a rare X-linked disorder that is characterized in part by congenital cataracts, mental retardation, muscular hypotonia, and renal tubular dysfunction. OCRL1 has a high affinity for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate as well as inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate as substrates. OCRL1 is localized to the Golgi complex and is thought to be part of the trans-Golgi network (TGN), which suggests that OCRL1 plays a role in protein sorting and trafficking within the cell.
