LAPTM5 transport from the Golgi to the lysosome requires binding to the ubiquitin ligase Nedd4 via three PY motifs (L/PPxY) on LAPTM5 interacting with Nedd4 WW domains, and a LAPTM5 UIM motif that binds ubiquitinated GGA3; this trafficking is independent of LAPTM5 ubiquitination itself. Mutation of PY motifs or UIM retains LAPTM5 in the Golgi; Nedd4 or GGA3 knockdown produces the same retention. |

LAPTM5 acts as a positive regulator of proinflammatory signaling in macrophages: LAPTM5-deficient macrophages show reduced NF-κB and MAPK activation downstream of TNF receptor and pattern recognition receptors, reduced RIP1 ubiquitination upon TNF stimulation, and up-regulated A20 (a deubiquitinase that terminates NF-κB by deubiquitinating RIP1). |

LAPTM5 promotes lysosomal degradation of intracellular (newly synthesized, Golgi-localizing) CD3ζ but not of cell-surface CD3ζ in the mature TCR complex; this is independent of TCR signaling-triggered tyrosine phosphorylation of CD3ζ. LAPTM5 and the SLAP/c-Cbl pathway operate in genetically distinct pathways to downregulate TCR expression. |

ITCH (an HECT-type E3 ubiquitin ligase) directly binds the PPxY motif of LAPTM5 via its WW domains and ubiquitinates LAPTM5, leading to its proteasomal degradation; ITCH overexpression degrades LAPTM5 and conversely ITCH knockdown stabilizes LAPTM5 protein. Inhibition of ITCH enhances LAPTM5-mediated cell death in neuroblastoma cells. |

LAPTM5 restricts HIV-1 infectivity in macrophages by transporting HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins to lysosomes for degradation, thereby reducing virion infectivity. HIV-1 Vpr counteracts this restriction by triggering LAPTM5 degradation via DCAF1. LAPTM5 is highly expressed in macrophages but not CD4+ T cells, explaining the macrophage-specific effect of Vpr; re-expressing LAPTM5 in CD4+ T cells reconstitutes Vpr-dependent enhancement of infection. |

BCR stimulation up-regulates LAPTM5, which then triggers immature B cell apoptosis via two mechanisms: (1) promoting BCR internalization and reducing SYK and ERK phosphorylation; (2) targeting the E3 ubiquitin ligase WWP2 for lysosomal degradation, causing accumulation of its substrate PTEN, suppressing AKT phosphorylation, increasing FOXO1/p27Kip1/BIM expression. In vivo, LAPTM5 deficiency exacerbates autoreactive B cell survival and autoantibody production. |

LAPTM5 physically associates with CD1e (a lipid antigen presentation protein) in trans-Golgi and late endosomal compartments; the interaction is detectable under physiological conditions and is enhanced when lysosomal acidification is blocked by bafilomycin. However, LAPTM5 does not control CD1e ubiquitination or the generation of soluble lysosomal CD1e. |
