The endoplasmic reticulum membrane complex (EMC) is a versatile complex that plays a key role in membrane protein biogenesis in the ER. Deletion of the complex has wide-ranging consequences including ER stress, disturbance in lipid transport and organelle tethering, among others. Here we report the function and organization of the evolutionarily conserved EMC (TbEMC) in the highly diverged eukaryote, Trypanosoma brucei. Using (co-) immunoprecipitation experiments in combination with mass spectrometry and whole cell proteomic analyses of parasites after depletion of select TbEMC subunits, we demonstrate that the TbEMC is composed of 9 subunits that are present in a high molecular mass complex localizing to the mitochondrial-endoplasmic reticulum interface. Knocking out or knocking down of single TbEMC subunits led to growth defects of T. brucei procyclic forms in culture. Interestingly, we found that depletion of individual TbEMC subunits lead to disruption of de novo synthesis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) or phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), the two most abundant phospholipid classes in T. brucei. Downregulation of TbEMC1 or TbEMC3 inhibited formation of PC while depletion of TbEMC8 inhibited PE synthesis, pointing to a role of the TbEMC in phospholipid synthesis. In addition, we found that in TbEMC7 knock-out parasites, TbEMC3 is released from the complex, implying that TbEMC7 is essential for the formation or the maintenance of the TbEMC. 相似文献

Newly synthesized glycoproteins interact during folding and quality control in the ER with calnexin and calreticulin, two lectins specific for monoglucosylated oligosaccharides. Binding and release are regulated by two enzymes, glucosidase II and UDP-Glc:glycoprotein:glycosyltransferase (GT), which cyclically remove and reattach the essential glucose residues on the N-linked oligosaccharides. GT acts as a folding sensor in the cycle, selectively reglucosylating incompletely folded glycoproteins and promoting binding of its substrates to the lectins. To investigate how nonnative protein conformations are recognized and directed to this unique chaperone system, we analyzed the interaction of GT with a series of model substrates with well defined conformations derived from RNaseB. We found that conformations with slight perturbations were not reglucosylated by GT. In contrast, a partially structured nonnative form was efficiently recognized by the enzyme. When this form was converted back to a nativelike state, concomitant loss of recognition by GT occurred, reproducing the reglucosylation conditions observed in vivo with isolated components. Moreover, fully unfolded conformers were poorly recognized. The results indicated that GT is able to distinguish between different nonnative conformations with a distinct preference for partially structured conformers. The findings suggest that discrete populations of nonnative conformations are selectively reglucosylated to participate in the calnexin/calreticulin chaperone pathway. 相似文献

Biosynthesis and processing of ribophorins in the endoplasmic reticulum 总被引:21,自引:16,他引:5

Ribophorins are two transmembrane glycoproteins characteristic of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, which are thought to be involved in the binding of ribosomes. Their biosynthesis was studied in vivo using lines of cultured rat hepatocytes (clone 9) and pituitary cells (GH 3.1) and in cell-free synthesis experiments. In vitro translation of mRNA extracted from free and bound polysomes of clone 9 cells demonstrated that ribophorins are made exclusively on bound polysomes. The primary translation products of ribophorin messengers obtained from cultured hepatocytes or from regenerating livers co-migrated with the respective mature proteins, but had slightly higher apparent molecular weights (2,000) than the unglycosylated forms immunoprecipitated from cells treated with tunicamycin. This indicates that ribophorins, in contrast to all other endoplasmic reticulum membrane proteins previously studied, contain transient amino-terminal insertion signals which are removed co-translationally. Kinetic and pulse-chase experiments with [35S]methionine and [3H]mannose demonstrated that ribophorins are not subjected to electrophoretically detectable posttranslational modifications, such as proteolytic cleavage or trimming and terminal glycosylation of oligosaccharide side chain(s). Direct analysis of the oligosaccharides of ribophorin l showed that they do not contain the terminal sugars characteristic of complex oligosaccharides and that they range in composition from Man8GlcNAc to Man5GlcNAc. These findings, as well as the observation that the mature proteins are sensitive to endoglycosidase H and insensitive to endoglycosidase D, are consistent with the notion that the biosynthetic pathway of the ribophorins does not require a stage of passage through the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Man9-alpha-mannosidase, responsible for trimming Man9GlcNAc2 in the endoplasmic reticulum to Man8GlcNAc2, the substrate for oligosaccharide elongation, has been purified to homogeneity from stabilized microsomal membranes without employing autolytic digestion. The activity was solubilized by the zwitterionic detergent, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethyl ammonio]-1-propanesulphonate (CHAPS), whose presence was necessary for maximal activity. Purification included Q-Sepharose ion-exchange chromatography, preparative isoelectric focusing and HPLC gel filtration on TSK 3000 matrix. Overall purification from post-nuclear supernatants was estimated to be 110,000-fold with a 50% recovery of activity. The purified enzyme hydrolysed Man9GlcNAc1,2 from thyroglobulin or oligosaccharide-lipid, but not invertase Man9GlcNAc, Man1 alpha 2Man1 alpha OCH3 or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside. Conversion of thyroglobulin Man9GlcNAc to Man8GlcNAc was linear with time and enzyme concentration, with an apparent Km of 0.2 mM and a specific activity of 220 IU/mg. Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 from oligosaccharide-lipid was as good a substrate as Man9GlcNAc, but the lipid-linked Man7GlcNAc2 isomer was hydrolysed at only 10% of this rate. Hydrolysis of defined isomers of IgM and bovine thyroglobulin Man6,7,8GlcNAc indicated that, for maximal alpha 1,2-mannosidase activity, only the alpha 1,2-linked terminal mannoses on the alpha 3 branch of the Man9GlcNAc precursor were dispensable. Isomers lacking the terminal alpha 1,2-linked mannose on the alpha 6 branch were hydrolysed at only approximately 10% of the maximal rate. The enzyme exhibited a pI of 5.3 and a pH optimum at 6.5. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the absence of reducing agents gave a single sharp band at 66 kDa, while in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol equimolar amounts of two peptides, one of 44 kDa and one of 23 kDa, were obtained. Sizing on Sephacryl SF300, Superose 12 and TSK 3000 provided a holoenzyme mol. wt of 60-68 kDa, indicating that the isolated active form of the Man9-alpha-mannosidase was composed of one each of the sulphydryl-bonded dissimilar peptides. The enzyme bound to concanavalin A (ConA)-Sepharose and was eluted with alpha-methylmannoside, indicating the presence of high-mannose oligosaccharides. The Man9-alpha-mannosidase required low levels of Ca2+, which could be removed by EGTA. Activity was restored by Ca2+ or Zn2+, but not by Mg2+ or Mn2+. 相似文献

The UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (GT), a key player in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control of glycoprotein folding, only glucosylates glycoproteins displaying non-native conformations. To determine whether GT recognizes folding intermediates or irreparably misfolded species with nearly native structures, we generated and tested as GT substrates neoglycoprotein fragments derived from chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 (GCI2) bearing from 53 to 64 (full-length) amino acids. Fragment conformations mimicked the last stage-folding structures adopted by a glycoprotein entering the ER lumen. GT catalytic efficiency (V(max)/K(m)) remained constant from GCI2-(1-53) to GCI2-(1-58) and then steadily declined to reach a minimal value with GCI2-(1-64). The same parameter showed a direct hyperbolic relationship with solvent accessibility of the single Trp residue but only in fragments exposing hydrophobic amino acid patches. Mutations introduced (GCI2-(1-63)V63S and GCI2-(1-64)V63S) produced slight structural destabilizations but increased GT catalytic efficiency. This parameter presented an inverse exponential relationship with the free energy of unfolding of canonical and mutant fragments. Moreover, the catalytic efficiency showed a linear relationship with the fraction of unfolded species in water. It was concluded that the GT-derived quality control may be operative with nearly native conformers and that no alternative ER-retaining mechanisms are required when glycoproteins approach their proper folding. 相似文献

Glucosidase II is essential for sequential removal of two glucose residues from N-linked glycans during glycoprotein biogenesis in the endoplasmic reticulum. The enzyme is a heterodimer whose alpha-subunit contains the glycosyl hydrolase active site. The function of the beta-subunit has yet to be defined, but mutations in the human gene have been linked to an autosomal dominant form of polycystic liver disease. Here we report the identification and characterization of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene, GTB1, encoding a polypeptide with 21% sequence similarity to the beta-subunit of human glucosidase II. The Gtb1 protein was shown to be a soluble glycoprotein (96-102 kDa) localized to the endoplasmic reticulum lumen where it was present in a complex together with the yeast alpha-subunit homologue Gls2p. Surprisingly, we found that Deltagtb1 mutant cells were specifically defective in the processing of monoglucosylated glycans. Thus, although Gls2p is sufficient for cleavage of the penultimate glucose residue, Gtb1p is essential for cleavage of the final glucose. Our data demonstrate that Gtb1p is required for normal glycoprotein biogenesis and reveal that the final two glucose-trimming steps in N-glycan processing are mechanistically distinct. 相似文献

We recently identified an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retrieval signal-the dilysine motif-in the glycoproteins of all five foamy viruses (FVs) for which sequences were available (P. A. Goepfert, G. Wang, and M. J. Mulligan, Cell 82:543-544, 1995). In the present study, expression of recombinant human FV (HFV) glycoprotein and analyses of oligosaccharide modifications and precursor cleavage indicated that the protein was localized to the ER. HFV glycoproteins encoding seven different dilysine motif mutations were then expressed. The results indicated that disruptions of the dilysine motif resulted in higher levels of forward transport of the HFV glycoprotein from the ER through the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane. We conclude that the dilysine motif is responsible for ER sorting of the FV glycoprotein. Signal-mediated ER localization has not previously been described for a retroviral glycoprotein. 相似文献

Peroxisomes start their life in the endoplasmic reticulum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Peroxisomes belong to the ubiquitous organelle repertoire of eukaryotic cells. They contribute to cellular metabolism in various ways depending on species, but a consistent feature is the presence of enzymes to degrade fatty acids. Due to the pioneering work of DeDuve and coworkers, peroxisomes were in the limelight of cell biology in the sixties with a focus on their metabolic role. During the last decade, interest in peroxisomes has been growing again, this time with focus on their origin and maintenance. This has resulted in our understanding how peroxisomal proteins are targeted to the organelle and imported into the organellar matrix or recruited into the single membrane surrounding it. With respect to the formation of peroxisomes, the field is divided. The long-held view formulated in 1985 by Lazarow and Fujiki (Lazarow PB, Fujiki Y. Biogenesis of peroxisomes. Annu Rev Cell Biol 1985; 1: 489–530) is that we are dealing with autonomous organelles multiplying by growth and division. This view is being challenged by various observations that call attention to a more active contribution of the ER to peroxisome formation. Our contribution to this debate consists of recent observations using immuno-electronmicroscopy and electron tomography in mouse dendritic cells that show the peroxisomal membrane to be derived from the ER. 相似文献

Glucosylated oligomannose N-linked oligosaccharides (Glc(x)Man9GlcNAc2 where x = 1-3) are not normally found on mature glycoproteins but are involved in the early stages of glycoprotein biosynthesis and folding as (i) recognition elements during protein N-glycosylation and chaperone recognition and (ii) substrates in the initial steps of N-glycan processing. By inhibiting the first steps of glycan processing in CHO cells using the alpha-glucosidase inhibitor N-butyl-deoxynojirimycin, we have produced sufficient Glc3Man7GlcNAc2 for structural analysis by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Our results show the glucosyl cap to have a single, well-defined conformation independent of the rest of the saccharide. Comparison with the conformation of Man9GlcNAc2, previously determined by NMR and molecular dynamics, shows the mannose residues to be largely unaffected by the presence of the glucosyl cap. Sequential enzymatic cleavage of the glucose residues does not affect the conformation of the remaining saccharide. Modelling of the Glc3Man9GlcNAc2, Glc2Man9GlcNAc2 and Glc1Man9GlcNAc2 conformations shows the glucose residues to be fully accessible for recognition. A more detailed analysis of the conformations allows potential recognition epitopes on the glycans to be identified and can form the basis for understanding the specificity of the glucosidases and chaperones (such as calnexin) that recognize these glycans, with implications for their mechanisms of action. 相似文献

Oat (Avena sativa L.) groats were labeled with radioactive leucine and salt-soluble proteins were extracted and analyzed. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by fluorography indicated two radioactive polypeptides with molecular weight 58 to 62 kilodaltons which were similar in size to unreduced globulin α-β dimers. The role of endoplasmic reticulum in the synthesis of these globulin polypeptides was investigated by in vivo and in vitro protein synthesis studies. Labeled tissue was fractionated by centrifugation and rough endoplasmic reticulum was isolated. Two polypeptides which had molecular weights of 58 to 62 kilodaltons and were immunoprecipitable with antiglobulin immunoglobulin G were found to be transiently associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. Rough endoplasmic reticulum, as well as membrane-bound polysomes, directed the in vitro synthesis of two polypeptides with molecular weight 58 to 62 kilodaltons corresponding in size to unreduced α-β dimers and could be immunoprecipitated with antiglobulin immunoglobulin G. The translation products of free polysomes did not show this. In pulse-labeling, globulin polypeptides with molecular weight 58 to 62 kilodaltons, as well as the α + β subunits, were labeled in protein bodies.
The data suggest that oat globulin polypeptides are synthesized as higher molecular weight precursors on ER-associated polysomes. These precursors are probably transported into protein bodies and cleaved into smaller α and β subunits.

Dissociation and reassociation of oligomeric viral glycoprotein subunits in the endoplasmic reticulum. 总被引:7,自引:4,他引:3
The vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) glycoprotein (G) forms noncovalently linked trimers in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) prior to transport to the cell surface. Here we examined the formation of heterotrimers between wild-type and mutant subunits that were retained in the ER by C-terminal retention signals. When G protein was coexpressed with mutant subunits that formed trimers at the wild-type rate and were transported from the ER at the wild-type rate, heterotrimers were readily detected. In contrast, when G protein was coexpressed with mutant subunits that formed trimers at the wild-type rate, but were retained in the ER, heterotrimers were not detected unless transport of the wild-type molecules from the ER was blocked. After removal of transport block, the heterotrimers then dissociated and reassorted to homotrimers of the mutant protein that were retained in the ER and wild-type trimers that were transported to the cell surface. These and other results presented here indicate that there is an equilibrium between G protein trimers and monomers in vivo, at least in the ER. This equilibrium may function to allow escape of wild-type subunits from aberrant retained subunits. 相似文献

The UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase is a soluble protein of the endoplasmic reticulum. 总被引:7,自引:1,他引:6
N-linked oligosaccharides devoid of glucose residues are transiently glucosylated directly from UDP-Glc in the endoplasmic reticulum. The reaction products have been identified, depending on the organisms, as protein-linked Glc1Man5-9GlcNAc2. Incubation of right side-sealed vesicles from rat liver with UDP-[14C]Glc, Ca2+ ions and denatured thyroglobulin led to the glucosylation of the macromolecule only when the vesicles had been disrupted previously by sonication or by the addition of detergents to the glucosylation mixture. Similarly, maximal glucosylation of denatured thyroglobulin required disruption of microsomal vesicles isolated from the protozoan Crithidia fasciculata. Treatment of the rat liver vesicles with trypsin led to the inactivation of the UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase only when proteolysis was performed in the presence of detergents. The glycoprotein glucosylating activity could be solubilized upon sonication of right side-sealed vesicles in an isotonic medium, upon passage of them through a French press or by suspending the vesicles in an hypotonic medium. Moreover, the enzyme appeared in the aqueous phase when the vesicles were submitted to a Triton X-114/water partition. Solubilization was not due to proteolysis of a membrane-bound enzyme. The enzyme could also be solubilized from C. fasciculata microsomal vesicles by procedures not involving membrane disassembly. About 30% of endogenous glycoproteins glucosylated upon incubation of intact rat liver microsomal vesicles with UDP-[14C]GLc could be solubilized by sonication or by suspending the vesicles in 0.1 M Na2CO3. These and previous results show that the UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase is a soluble protein present in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, both soluble and membrane-bound glycoproteins may be glucosylated by the glycoprotein glucosylating activity. 相似文献

Previous studies showed that the glycoprotein (G) of vesicular stomatitis virus is synthesized in association with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and that all G mRNA co-fractionates with ER membrane. Here, we show that treatment of infected cells with puromycin results in dissociation of G mRNA, and presumably the associated ribosomes, from the ER membrane. Even it extracts from treated cells are kept at low ionic strength (0.01 M KCl), over 80% of G mRNA is found unattached to membranes. There is no evidence for direct interaction of GmRNA with membranes; rather, the linkage apparently is mediated by the nascent G polypeptide. 相似文献

Signal sequences for insertion of proteins into the endoplasmic reticulum induce translocation of either the C- or the N-terminal sequence across the membrane. The end that is translocated is primarily determined by the flanking charges and the hydrophobic domain of the signal. To characterize the hydrophobic contribution to topogenesis, we have challenged the translocation machinery in vivo in transfected COS cells with model proteins differing exclusively in the apolar segment of the signal. Homo-oligomers of hydrophobic amino acids as different in size and shape as Val(19), Trp(19), and Tyr(22) generated functional signal sequences with similar topologies in the membrane. The longer a homo-oligomeric sequence of a given residue, the more N-terminal translocation was obtained. To determine the topogenic contribution of all uncharged amino acids in the context of a hydrophobic signal sequence, two residues in a generic oligoleucine signal were exchanged for all uncharged amino acids. The resulting scale resembles a hydrophobicity scale with the more hydrophobic residues promoting N-terminal translocation. In addition, the helix breakers glycine and proline showed a position-dependent effect, which raises the possibility of a conformational contribution to topogenesis. 相似文献
