    Background
    M6PR, also known as the Cation-Dependent Mannose 6-Phosphate Receptor or CD-MPR, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the P-type lectin family and is essential for the sorting of mannose 6-phosphate-tagged lysosomal hydrolases from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes and lysosomes. It consists of a luminal M6P receptor homology domain, which is a flattened beta-barrel composed of six beta-strands and stabilized by four disulfide bonds; loop D, spanning residues 134 to 141, forms one wall of the binding pocket. The receptor also has a single transmembrane domain and a short cytoplasmic tail containing dileucine and tyrosine motifs responsible for intracellular sorting. The M6P binding pocket coordinates the phosphate group via axial 2-hydroxyl hydrogen bonds to conserved residues such as arginine 111, tyrosine 143, and glutamic acid 133, with manganese ions acting as cofactors. CD-MPR binds high-mannose oligosaccharides with M6P tags at neutral pH in the trans-Golgi, clusters with GGA adaptors and clathrin at sorting stations, and packages enzymes into clathrin-coated vesicles for transport to endosomes. In the acidic pH of endosomes, it releases its cargo and is recycled to the Golgi via the retromer complex. CD-MPR recognizes about ten percent of lysosomal hydrolases, while the cation-independent counterpart handles the remainder. M6PR ensures a full complement of lysosomal hydrolases for degradation and recycling, maintains cellular homeostasis, and supports autophagy. The receptor forms constitutive dimers stabilized by inter-subunit salt bridges, which are weakened by ligand binding to facilitate cargo release. Loss-of-function mutations in M6PR cause I-cell disease or mucolipidosis II due to mis-sorting of hydrolases to the extracellular space and substrate accumulation.
