Adrm1 interacts with Atp6v0d2 and regulates osteoclast differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Bone homeostasis is tightly regulated by matrix-producing osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts. During osteoclast development, mononuclear preosteoclasts derived from myeloid cells fuse together to form multinucleated, giant cells. Previously, we reported that the d2 isoform of the vacuolar (H(+)) ATPase V0 domain (Atp6v0d2) plays an important role in osteoclast maturation and bone formation. To understand how Atp6v0d2 controls osteoclast maturation, we have performed a yeast two-hybrid screen using full-length Atp6v0d2 as the bait, and identified adhesion-regulating molecule 1 protein (Adrm1) as a potential functional partner of Atp6v0d2. The interaction between Atp6v0d2 and Adrm1 was confirmed in yeast and invivo using immunoprecipitation assays. We also show that Adrm1 is required
