Dysfunctional mitochondria are observed in beta-cells of diabetic patients, which are eventually removed by autophagy. Vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)7, a vesicular SNARE protein, regulates autophagosome formation to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis and control insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells. However, its molecular mechanism is largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of VAMP7-dependent autophagosome formation using VAMP7-deficient beta-cells and beta-cell derived Min6 cells. VAMP7 localized in autophagy-related (Atg) 9a resident vesicles of recycling endosomes (REs), which contributed to autophagosome formation, and it interacted with Hrb, Syntaxinl6, and SNAP-47. Hrb recruited VAMP7 and Atg9a from the plasma membrane to REs. Syntaxin16 and SNAP-47 mediated autophagosome formation at a step later than the proper localization of VAMP7 to Atg9a-resident vesicles. Knockdown of Hrb, Syntaxin16, and SNAP-47 resulted in defective autophagosome formation, accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria, and impairment of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Our data indicate that VAM P7 and Atg9a are initially recruited to REs to organize VAMP7 and Atg9a-resident vesicles in an Hrb-dependent manner. Additionally, VAMP7 forms a SNARE complex with Syntaxin16 and SNAP-47, which may cause fusions of Atg9a-resident vesicles during autophagosome formation. Thus, VAMP7 participates in autophagosome formation by supporting Atg9a functions that contribute to maintenance of mitochondrial quality.
