    Quantification revealed that the amounts of 12 different soluble lysosomal proteins were significantly reduced in Cln7 ko MEFs compared with wild-type controls. One of the most significantly depleted lysosomal proteins was Cln5 protein that underlies another distinct neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis disorder

    Loss of CLN7 results in depletion of soluble lysosomal proteins and impaired mTOR reactivation.
