Batten disease (juvenile-onset neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, JNCL), the
most common neurodegenerative disorder of childhood, is caused by mutations
in a recently identified gene ( CLN3 ) localized to chromosome
16p11.2-12.1. To elucidate the biosynthesis and localization of the CLN3
protein, we expressed CLN3 cDNA in COS-1 and HeLa cell lines. In vitro
translation, immunoprecipitation and Western blotting analyses detected an
approximately 43 kDa polypeptide. Pulse-chase experiments indicated that
the CLN3 protein is synthesized as an N - glycosylated single-chain
polypeptide, which was not detected in growth medium. Confocal
immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that the CLN3 protein is localized
to the lysosomal compartment. These results provide evidence that Batten
disease can be classified as a member of lysosomal diseases.
