Degradation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) via selective autophagy (ER‐phagy) is vital for cellular homeostasis. We identify FAM134A/RETREG2 and FAM134C/RETREG3 as ER‐phagy receptors, which predominantly exist in an inactive state under basal conditions. Upon autophagy induction and ER stress signal, they can induce significant ER fragmentation and subsequent lysosomal degradation. FAM134A, FAM134B/RETREG1, and FAM134C are essential for maintaining ER morphology in a LC3‐interacting region (LIR)‐dependent manner. Overexpression of any FAM134 paralogue has the capacity to significantly augment the general ER‐phagy flux upon starvation or ER‐stress. Global proteomic analysis of FAM134 overexpressing and knockout cell lines reveals several protein clusters that are distinctly regulated by each of the FAM134 paralogues as well as a cluster of commonly regulated ER‐resident proteins. Utilizing pro‐Collagen I, as a shared ER‐phagy substrate, we observe that FAM134A acts in a LIR‐independent manner and compensates for the loss of FAM134B and FAM134C, respectively. FAM134C instead is unable to compensate for the loss of its paralogues. Taken together, our data show that FAM134 paralogues contribute to common and unique ER‐phagy pathways. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is composed of a controlled ratio of sheets and tubules, which are maintained by several proteins with multiple functions. Reticulons (RTNs), especially RTN4, and DP1/Yop1p family members are known to induce ER membrane curvature. RTN4B is the main RTN4 isoform expressed in nonneuronal cells. In this study, we identified FAM134C as a RTN4B interacting protein in mammalian, nonneuronal cells. FAM134C localized specifically to the ER tubules and sheet edges. Ultrastructural analysis revealed that overexpression of FAM134C induced the formation of unbranched, long tubules or dense globular structures composed of heavily branched narrow tubules. In both cases, tubules were nonmotile. ER tubulation was dependent on the reticulon homology domain (RHD) close to the N-terminus. FAM134C plays a role in the autophagy pathway as its level elevated significantly upon amino acid starvation but not during ER stress. Moreover, FAM134C depletion reduced the number and size of autophagic structures and the amount of ER as a cargo within autophagic structures under starvation conditions. Dominant-negative expression of FAM134C forms with mutated RHD or LC3 interacting region also led to a reduced number of autophagic structures. Our results suggest that FAM134C provides a link between regulation of ER architecture and ER turnover by promoting ER tubulation required for subsequent ER fragmentation and engulfment into autophagosomes. 相似文献

Illegitimate recombinations between low-copy repetitive elements (LCR) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various chromosomal rearrangements. Two such duplicons have been reported previously on Xp22.3, the CRI-S232 elements, involved in the generation of deletions in the steroidsulfatase gene and five members of the G1.3 (DXF22S) repetitive sequence family. By molecular characterization of an Xp22/10q24 translocation, we identified one duplicon of the G1.3 family in the breakpoint region in Xp22.3. We show that G1.3 elements harbor at least three expressed genes, FAM9A, FAM9B, and FAM9C, and three putative pseudogenes, all mapped to Xp22.33-p22.31. The deduced amino acid sequence of the three novel proteins shows homology to SYCP3, a component of the synaptonemal complex located along the paired chromosomes during meiosis. FAM9A, FAM9B, and FAM9C are expressed exclusively in testis; their proteins are located in the nucleus, and FAM9A localizes to the nucleolus. The presence of genes within duplicons may represent putative recombination-promoting factors for actively transcribed genes in meiotic cells, with the resulting open chromatin structure facilitating unequal crossing-over events and chromosomal rearrangements. 相似文献

The catalogues of protein kinases, the essential effectors of cellular signaling, have been charted in Metazoan genomes for a decade now. Yet, surprisingly, using bioinformatics tools, we predicted protein kinase structure for proteins coded by five related human genes and their Metazoan homologues, the FAM69 family. Analysis of three-dimensional structure models and conservation of the classic catalytic motifs of protein kinases present in four out of five human FAM69 proteins suggests they might have retained catalytic phosphotransferase activity. An EF-hand Ca2+-binding domain in FAM69A and FAM69B proteins, inserted within the structure of the kinase domain, suggests they may function as Ca2+-dependent kinases. The FAM69 genes, FAM69A, FAM69B, FAM69C, C3ORF58 (DIA1) and CXORF36 (DIA1R), are by large uncharacterised molecularly, yet linked to several neurological disorders in genetics studies. The C3ORF58 gene is found deleted in autism, and resides in the Golgi. Unusually high cysteine content and presence of signal peptides in some of the family members suggest that FAM69 proteins may be involved in phosphorylation of proteins in the secretory pathway and/or of extracellular proteins. 相似文献

We have previously characterized the centrosome/spindle pole-associated protein (CSPP) involved in cell cycle progression. The open reading frame C20orf55 was identified in a yeast two-hybrid screen in a search for CSPP-interacting proteins. A homology search revealed that C20orf55 belongs to a gene family consisting of three members that have not yet been described. The HUGO Nomenclature Committee has assigned these genes the names FAM110A-FAM110C. Studies of transfectants showed that the FAM110 proteins localized to centrosomes and accumulated at the microtubule organization center in interphase and at spindle poles in mitosis. In addition, overexpression of FAM110C induced microtubule aberrancies. Our data also indicated a cell cycle-regulated expression of FAM110A. Moreover, ectopic expression of FAM110B and FAM110C proteins impaired cell cycle progression in G1 phase. To summarize, we have characterized a novel family of genes encoding proteins with distinct conserved motifs, of which all members localize to centrosomes and spindle poles. 相似文献

In the tumor microenvironment, cancer cells experience hypoxia resulting in the accumulation of misfolded/unfolded proteins largely in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Consequently, ER proteotoxicity elicits unfolded protein response (UPR) as an adaptive mechanism to resolve ER stress. In addition to canonical UPR, proteotoxicity also stimulates the selective, autophagy-dependent, removal of discrete ER domains loaded with misfolded proteins to further alleviate ER stress. These mechanisms can favor cancer cell growth, metastasis, and long-term survival. Our investigations reveal that during hypoxia-induced ER stress, the ER-phagy receptor FAM134B targets damaged portions of ER into autophagosomes to restore ER homeostasis in cancer cells. Loss of FAM134B in breast cancer cells results in increased ER stress and reduced cell proliferation. Mechanistically, upon sensing hypoxia-induced proteotoxic stress, the ER chaperone BiP forms a complex with FAM134B and promotes ER-phagy. To prove the translational implication of our mechanistic findings, we identified vitexin as a pharmacological agent that disrupts FAM134B-BiP complex, inhibits ER-phagy, and potently suppresses breast cancer progression in vivo.Subject terms: Cell biology, Cancer 相似文献

96序列相似的家庭成员A和B(family with sequence similarity 96 member A and B,FAM96A和FAM96B)是属于MIP18(MMS19-interacting protein of 18 kD)家族的2个高度保守的同源蛋白,MIP18是与有丝分裂纺锤体相关的MMDX(MMS19-MIP18-XPD)复合体的亚基。研究表明,FAM96A和FAM96B在人胃肠道间质瘤、结肠癌、肝癌、胃癌和乳腺癌等多种肿瘤组织中的表达显著降低,提示其可能是作为潜在的抑癌基因参与肿瘤的发生发展,但目前关于FAM96A和FAM96B在肿瘤发生发展过程中的作用机理并不十分清楚。此外,研究发现FAM96A和FAM96B可通过与其他不同的蛋白质相互作用在体内发挥多种不同的功能。因此,就目前对于FAM96A和FAM96B结构和功能的研究所取得的进展进行了回顾与总结,并对其在肿瘤发生发展中的分子机制和相互作用蛋白鉴定的研究前景进行了展望,以期为临床上将FAM96A和FAM96B作为新的肿瘤诊断标志物和治疗靶点奠定基础,并为揭示二者在体内更多的新功能提供依据。 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle in which most membrane and secretory proteins are synthesized. If these proteins are not folded correctly, unfolded proteins accumulate in the ER lumen, causing a cellular situation known as ER stress. Recently, many studies on the relationship between ER stress and diseases have been reported. Thus, studies of ER stress in vivo should yield information that is useful in pathology. Model mice have been developed as a powerful tool to visualize ER stress in vivo, but this approach depends on transgenic technology. Here, we report on a method of detecting ER stress in vivo by Raman spectroscopy. Our experiments revealed that two specific Raman bands were reduced in both cultured cells and animal tissues in an ER stress dependent manner. This suggests that Raman spectroscopy could be a useful tool to detect ER stress in vivo without transgenic technology. 相似文献

We report the identification and characterization of a novel cytokine-like gene family using structure-based methods to search for novel four-helix-bundle cytokines in genomics databases. There are four genes in this family, FAM3A, FAM3B, FAM3C, and FAM3D, each encoding a protein (224-235 amino acids) with a hydrophobic leader sequence. Northern analysis indicates that FAM3B is highly expressed in pancreas, FAM3D in placenta, and FAM3A and FAM3C in almost all tissues. Immunohistochemistry showed that FAM3A is expressed prominently in the vascular endothelium, particularly capillaries. We found that FAM3A and FAM3B protein were both localized to the islets of Langerhans of the endocrine pancreas. Recombinant FAM3B protein has delayed effects on beta-cell function, inhibiting basal insulin secretion from a beta-cell line in a dose-dependent manner. 相似文献

Protein Arginine Methyl Transferase 1 (PRMT1) is deemed to be a potential oncogenic protein considering its overexpression in several malignancies including colorectal cancer. However, the molecular pathogenesis regarding PRMT1 overexpression and overall poor patient survival involved in this devastating and life threatening cancer remains obscured. In our previous study, we have identified FAM98A as a novel substrate of PRMT1 and also identified its role in ovarian cancer progression. Here, we showed that the two structural homologs FAM98A and FAM98B included in a novel complex with DDX1 and C14orf166 are required for PRMT1 expression. Analysis of the data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and clinical colorectal cancer specimens also demonstrated a strong positive correlation and co-occurrence of PRMT1, FAM98A and FAM98B. These findings provide a mechanistic insight into how knockdown of FAM98A or FAM98B can suppress the malignant characteristics of cancer cells. Besides, we showed that FAM98A and FAM98B are working in the same axis as knockdown of both proteins together does not cause additional reduction in the cellular proliferation and colony formation of colorectal cancer cells. 相似文献

J domain-containing proteins (J proteins) are functional partners for heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) molecular chaperones and mediate various cellular processes by regulating activities of Hsp70. Budding yeast has three J proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER): Scj1p and Jem1p functioning in protein folding and quality control in the ER, and Sec63p functioning in protein translocation across the ER membrane as partners for BiP, an Hsp70 in the ER. Here we report that Arabidopsis thaliana has orthologs of these yeast ER J proteins, which we designated as AtERdj3A, AtERdj3B, AtP58(IPK), AtERdj2A and AtERdj2B. Tunicamycin treatment of Arabidopsis cells, which causes ER stress, led to up-regulation of AtERdj3A, AtERdj3B, AtP58(IPK) and AtERdj2B. Subcellular fractionation analyses showed their ER localization, indicating that the identified J proteins indeed function as partners for BiP in Arabidopsis cells. Since expression of AtERdj3A, AtERdj3B and AtP58(IPK) partially suppressed the growth defects of the yeast jem1Deltascj1Delta mutant, they have functions similar to those of Scj1p and Jem1p. T-DNA insertions of the AtERDJ2A gene resulted in pollen germination defects, probably reflecting its essential function in protein translocation. These results suggest that A. thaliana has a set of ER J proteins structurally and functionally conserved from yeast to plants. 相似文献

Identification of the regulators of vascular inflammation is important if we are to understand the molecular mechanisms leading to atherosclerosis and consequent ischemic heart disease, including acute myocardial infarction. Gene polymorphisms in family with sequence similarity 5, member C (FAM5C) are associated with an increased risk of acute myocardial infarction, but little is known about the function of this gene product in blood vessels. Here, we report that the regulation of the expression and function of FAM5C in endothelial cells. We show here that FAM5C is expressed in endothelial cells in vitro and in vivo. Immunofluorescence microcopy showed localization of FAM5C in the Golgi in cultured human endothelial cells. Immunohistochemistry on serial sections of human coronary artery showed that FAM5C-positive endothelium expressed intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) or vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). In cultured human endothelial cells, the overexpression of FAM5C increased the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activity and the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and E-selectin mRNAs, resulting in enhanced monocyte adhesion. FAM5C was upregulated in response to inflammatory stimuli, such as TNF-α, in an NF-κB- and JNK-dependent manner. Knockdown of FAM5C by small interfering RNA inhibited the increase in the TNF-α-induced production of ROS, NF-κB activity and expression of these leukocyte adhesion molecule mRNAs, resulting in reduced monocyte adhesion. These results suggest that in endothelial cells, when FAM5C is upregulated in response to inflammatory stimuli, it increases the expression of leukocyte adhesion molecules by increasing ROS production and NF-κB activity. 相似文献

Reticulon (RTN) family proteins are localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). At least four different RTN genes have been identified in mammals, but in most cases, the functions of the encoded proteins except mammalian RTN4-A and RTN4-B are unknown. Each RTN gene produces 1-3 proteins by different promoters and alternative splicing. In Caenorhabditis elegans, there is a single gene (rtn gene) encoding three reticulon proteins, nRTN-A, B, and C. mRNA of nRTN-C is expressed in germ cells and embryos. However, nRTN-C protein is only expressed during embryogenesis and rapidly disappears after hatch. By yeast two-hybrid screening, two clones encoding the same C-terminal region of RME-1, a protein functioning in the endocytic recycling, were isolated. These findings suggest that nRTN-C functions in the endocytic pathway during embryogenesis. 相似文献

PDZ domains play a pivotal role in the synaptic localization of ion channels, receptors, signaling enzymes, and cell adhesion molecules. These domains mediate protein-protein interactions via the recognition of a conserved sequence motif at the extreme C terminus of their target proteins. By means of a yeast two-hybrid screen using the C terminus of the G protein-coupled alpha-latrotoxin receptor CL1 as bait, three PDZ domain proteins of the Shank family were identified. These proteins belong to a single protein family characterized by a common domain organization. The PDZ domain is highly conserved among the family members, significantly different from other known PDZ domains, and specifically binds to the C terminus of CL1. Shank1 and CL1 are expressed primarily in brain, and both proteins co-enrich in the postsynaptic density. Furthermore, Shank1 induces a clustering of CL1 in transfected cells, strongly supporting an interaction of both proteins in vivo. 相似文献
