ABSTRACT Lysosome damage activates multiple pathways to prevent lysosome-dependent cell death, including a repair mechanism involving ER-lysosome membrane contact sites, phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase- 2a (PI4K2A), phosphatidylinositol-4 phosphate (PI4P) and oxysterol-binding protein-related proteins (ORPs), lipid transfer proteins. PI4K2A localizes to trans-Golgi network and endosomes yet how it is delivered to damaged lysosomes remains unknown. During acute sterile damage, and damage caused by intracellular bacteria, we show that ATG9A-containing vesicles perform a critical role in delivering PI4K2A to damaged lysosomes. ADP ribosylation factor interacting protein 2 (ARFIP2), a component of ATG9A vesicles, binds and sequesters PI4P on lysosomes, balancing ORP- dependent lipid transfer and promoting retrieval of ATG9A vesicles through recruitment of the adaptor protein complex-3 (AP-3). Our results reveal a role for mobilized ATG9A vesicles and ARFIP2 in lysosome homeostasis after damage and bacterial infection.
