== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SKY_DROME SKY_DROME] GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for Rab35 which regulates synaptic vesicle (SV) protein recycling and turnover at the neuromuscular junction boutons and possibly ventral nerve cord via endosomal trafficking (PubMed:21458671, PubMed:25422373, PubMed:27669036). Inhibits Rab35-mediated endosomal sorting which traffics old or dysfunctional SV proteins through a degradative endolysosomal route that involves the ESCRT pathway and the HOPS complex members dor, vps39 and rab7 (PubMed:21458671, PubMed:25422373). This function is essential for preventing excessive degradation and turnover of vesicles from the readily releasable pool which leads to increased neurotransmission and eventually neurodegeneration (PubMed:21458671, PubMed:25422373, PubMed:27669036). Preferentially binds phosphoinositides phosphorylated at the D5 position of the inositol ring, such as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) (PubMed:27669036). Binding to phosphoinositides and thus membrane-association, is required for its function in regulating the turnover of synaptic-vesicle proteins (PubMed:27669036). It is therefore likely that it is recruited to vesicle membranes with high phosphoinositide content and thereby selectively prevents endolysosomal degradation of these vesicles (PubMed:27669036).<ref>PMID:21458671</ref> <ref>PMID:25422373</ref> <ref>PMID:27669036</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Genetic mutations in TBC1D24 have been associated with multiple phenotypes, with epilepsy being the main clinical manifestation. The TBC1D24 protein consists of the unique association of a Tre2/Bub2/Cdc16 (TBC) domain and a TBC/lysin motif domain/catalytic (TLDc) domain. More than 50 missense and loss-of-function mutations have been described and are spread over the entire protein. Through whole genome/exome sequencing we identified compound heterozygous mutations, R360H and G501R, within the TLDc domain, in an index family with a Rolandic epilepsy exercise-induced dystonia phenotype (http://omim.org/entry/608105). A 20-year long clinical follow-up revealed that epilepsy was self-limited in all three affected patients, but exercise-induced dystonia persisted into adulthood in two. Furthermore, we identified three additional sporadic paediatric patients with a remarkably similar phenotype, two of whom had compound heterozygous mutations consisting of an in-frame deletion I81_K84 and an A500V mutation, and the third carried T182M and G511R missense mutations, overall revealing that all six patients harbour a missense mutation in the subdomain of TLDc between residues 500 and 511. We solved the crystal structure of the conserved Drosophila TLDc domain. This allowed us to predict destabilizing effects of the G501R and G511R mutations and, to a lesser degree, of R360H and potentially A500V. Next, we characterized the functional consequences of a strong and a weak TLDc mutation (TBC1D24G501R and TBC1D24R360H) using Drosophila, where TBC1D24/Skywalker regulates synaptic vesicle trafficking. In a Drosophila model neuronally expressing human TBC1D24, we demonstrated that the TBC1D24G501R TLDc mutation causes activity-induced locomotion and synaptic vesicle trafficking defects, while TBC1D24R360H is benign. The neuronal phenotypes of the TBC1D24G501R mutation are consistent with exacerbated oxidative stress sensitivity, which is rescued by treating TBC1D24G501R mutant animals with antioxidants N-acetylcysteine amide or alpha-tocopherol as indicated by restored synaptic vesicle trafficking levels and sustained behavioural activity. Our data thus show that mutations in the TLDc domain of TBC1D24 cause Rolandic-type focal motor epilepsy and exercise-induced dystonia. The humanized TBC1D24G501R fly model exhibits sustained activity and vesicle transport defects. We propose that the TBC1D24/Sky TLDc domain is a reactive oxygen species sensor mediating synaptic vesicle trafficking rates that, when dysfunctional, causes a movement disorder in patients and flies. The TLDc and TBC domain mutations' response to antioxidant treatment we observed in the animal model suggests a potential for combining antioxidant-based therapeutic approaches to TBC1D24-associated disorders with previously described lipid-altering strategies for TBC domain mutations.
