As a shuttling protein, p53 is constantly transported through the nuclear pore complex. p53 nucleocytoplasmic transport is carried out by a bipartite nuclear localization signal (NLS) located at its C-terminal domain and two nuclear export signals (NES) located in its N- and C-terminal regions, respectively. The role of nucleocytoplasmic shuttling in p53 ubiquitination and degradation has been a subject of debate. Here we show that the two basic amino acid groups in the p53 bipartite NLS function collaboratively to import p53. Mutations disrupting individual amino acids in the NLS, although causing accumulation of p53 in the cytoplasm to various degrees, reduce but do not eliminate the NLS activity, and these mutants remain sensitive to MDM2 degradation. However, disrupting both parts of the bipartite NLS completely blocks p53 from entering the nucleus and causes p53 to become resistant to MDM2-mediated degradation. Similarly, mutations disrupting four conserved hydrophobic amino acids in the p53 C-terminal NES block p53 export and prohibit it from MDM2 degradation. We also show that colocalization of a nonshuttling p53 with MDM2 either in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm is sufficient for MDM2-induced p53 polyubiquitination but not degradation. Our data provide new insight into the mechanism and regulation of p53 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling and degradation. 相似文献

A temperature-sensitive mutant of p53, p53Val-135, was found to be able to arrest cell proliferation when overexpressed at 32.5 degrees C. While much of the protein was cytoplasmic in cells proliferating at 37.5 degrees C, it became predominantly nuclear at 32.5 degrees C. Concomitantly, p53Val-135 became destabilized, although not to the extent seen in primary fibroblasts. 相似文献

The murine allele temperature-sensitive (ts) p53Val-135 encodes a ts p53 protein that behaves as a mutant polypeptide at 37 degrees C and as a wild-type polypeptide at 32 degrees C. This ts allele was introduced into the p53 nonproducer Friend erythroleukemia cell line DP16-1. The DP16-1 cell line was derived from the spleen cells of a mouse infected with the polycythemia strain of Friend virus, and like other erythroleukemia cell lines transformed by this virus, it grows independently of erythropoietin, likely because of expression of the viral gp55 protein which binds to and activates the erythropoietin receptor. When incubated at 32 degrees C, DP16-1 cells expressing ts p53Val-135 protein, arrested in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, rapidly lost viability and expressed hemoglobin, a marker of erythroid differentiation. Erythropoietin had a striking effect on p53Val-135-expressing cells at 32 degrees C by prolonging their survival and diminishing the extent of hemoglobin production. This response to erythropoietin was not accompanied by down-regulation of viral gp55 protein. 相似文献

Heat shock cognate protein 70 (Hsc70) serves nuclear transport of several proteins as a molecular chaperone. We have recently identified a novel variant of human Hsc70, heat shock cognate protein 54 (Hsc54), that lacks amino acid residues 464-616 in the protein binding and variable domains of Hsc70. In the present study, we examined nucleocytoplasmic localization of Hsc70 and Hsc54 by using green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions. GFP-Hsc70 is localized in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus at 37 degrees C and accumulated into the nucleolus/nucleus after heat shock, whereas GFP-Hsc54 always remained exclusively in the cytoplasm under these conditions. Mutation studies indicated that 20 amino acid residues of nuclear localization-related signals, which are missing in Hsc54 but are retained in Hsc70, are required for proper nuclear localization of Hsc70. We further found that Hsc54 contains a functional leucine-rich nuclear export signal (NES, (394)LDVTPLSL(401)) which is differently situated from the previously proposed NES in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ssb1p. The cytoplasmic localization of Hsc54 was impaired by a mutation in NES as well as by a nuclear export inhibitor, leptomycin B, suggesting that Hsc54 is actively exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through a CRM1-dependent mechanism. In contrast, the nucleocytoplasmic localization of Hsc70 was not affected by the same mutation of NES or leptomycin B. These results suggest that the nuclear localization-related signal could functionally mask NES leading to prolonged retention of Hsc70 in the nucleus. An additional mechanism for unmasking the NES may regulate nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of Hsc70. 相似文献

A bipartite nuclear localization signal is required for p53 nuclear import regulated by a carboxyl-terminal domain. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Abnormal p53 cellular localization has been considered to be one of the mechanisms that could inactivate p53 function. To understand the regulation of p53 cellular trafficking, we have previously identified two p53 domains involved in its localization. A basic domain, Lys(305)-Arg(306), is required for p53 nuclear import, and a carboxyl-terminal domain, namely the cytoplasmic sequestration domain (CSD) from residues 326-355, could block the nuclear import of Lys(305) or Arg(306) mutated p53. To characterize further the function of these two domains, we demonstrate in this report that the previously described major nuclear localization signal works together with Lys(305)-Arg(306) to form a bipartite and functional nuclear localization sequence (NLS) for p53 nuclear import. The CSD could block the binding of p53 to the NLS receptor, importin alpha, and reduce the efficiency of p53 nuclear import in MCF-7, H1299, and Saos-2 cells. The blocking effect of the CSD is not due to the enhancement of nuclear export or oligomerization of the p53. These results indicate that the CSD can regulate p53 nuclear import by controlling access of the NLS to importin alpha binding. 相似文献

Cocompartmentalization of p53 and Mdm2 is a major determinant for Mdm2-mediated degradation of p53 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The product of the Mdm2 oncogene directly interacts with p53 and promotes its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Initial biological studies identified nuclear export sequences (NES), similar to that of the Rev protein from the human immunodeficiency virus, both in Mdm2 and p53. The reported phenotypes resulting from mutation of these NESs, together with results obtained using the nuclear export inhibitor leptomycin B (LMB), have led to a model according to which nuclear export of p53 (via either the NES of Mdm2 or its own NES) is required for efficient p53 degradation. In this study we demonstrate that Mdm2 can promote degradation of p53 in the nucleus or in the cytoplasm, provided both proteins are colocalized. We also investigated if nuclear export is an obligate step on the p53 degradation pathway. We find that (1) when proteasome activity is inhibited, ubiquitinated p53 accumulates in the nucleus and not in the cytoplasm; (2) Mdm2 with a mutated NES can efficiently mediate degradation of wild type p53 or p53 with a mutated NES; (3) the nuclear export inhibitor LMB can increase the steady-state level of p53 by inhibiting Mdm2-mediated ubiquitination of p53; and (4) LMB fails to inhibit Mdm2-mediated degradation of the p53NES mutant, demonstrating that Mdm2-dependent proteolysis of p53 is feasible in the nucleus in the absence of any nuclear export. Therefore, given cocompartmentalization, Mdm2 can promote ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of p53 with no absolute requirement for nuclear to cytoplasmic transport. 相似文献

Influenza virus nucleoprotein (NP) shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. A nuclear localization signal (NLS) has been identified in NP at amino acids 327 to 345 (J. Davey et al., Cell 40:667-675, 1985). However, some NP mutants that lack this region still localize to the nucleus, suggesting an additional NLS in NP. We therefore investigated the nucleocytoplasmic transport of NP from influenza virus A/WSN/33 (H1N1). NP deletion constructs lacking the 38 N-terminal amino acids, as well as those lacking the 38 N-terminal amino acids and the previously identified NLS, localized to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Nuclear localization of a protein containing amino acids 1 to 38 of NP fused to LacZ proved that these 38 amino acids function as an NLS. Within this region, we identified two basic amino acids, Lys7 and Arg8, that are crucial for NP nuclear import. After being imported into the nucleus, the wild-type NP and the NP-LacZ fusion construct containing amino acids 1 to 38 of NP were both transported back to the cytoplasm, where they accumulated. These data indicate that NP has intrinsic structural features that allow nuclear import, nuclear export, and cytoplasmic accumulation in the absence of any other viral proteins. Further, the information required for nuclear import and export is located in the 38 N-terminal amino acids of NP, although other NP nuclear export signals may exist. Treatment of cells with a protein kinase C inhibitor increased the amounts of nuclear NP, whereas treatment of cells with a phosphorylation stimulator increased the amounts of cytoplasmic NP. These findings suggest a role of phosphorylation in nucleocytoplasmic transport of NP. 相似文献

Nuclear protein import requires a nuclear localization signal (NLS) receptor and at least three other cytoplasmic factors. The α subunit of the NLS receptor, Rag cohort 1 (Rch1), enters the nucleus, probably in a complex with the β subunit of the receptor, as well as other import factors and the import substrate. To learn more about which factors and/or events end the import reaction and how the import factors return to the cytoplasm, we have studied nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of Rch1 in vivo. Recombinant Rch1 microinjected into Vero or tsBN2 cells was found primarily in the cytoplasm. Rch1 injected into the nucleus was rapidly exported in a temperature-dependent manner. In contrast, a mutant of Rch1 lacking the first 243 residues accumulated in the nuclei of Vero cells after cytoplasmic injection. After nuclear injection, the truncated Rch1 was retained in the nucleus, but either Rch1 residues 207–217 or a heterologous nuclear export signal, but not a mutant form of residues 207–217, restored nuclear export. Loss of the nuclear transport factor RCC1 (regulator of chromosome condensation) at the nonpermissive temperature in the thermosensitive mutant cell line tsBN2 caused nuclear accumulation of wild-type Rch1 injected into the cytoplasm. However, free Rch1 injected into nuclei of tsBN2 cells at the nonpermissive temperature was exported. These results suggested that RCC1 acts at an earlier step in Rch1 recycling, possibly the disassembly of an import complex that contains Rch1 and the import substrate. Consistent with this possibility, incubation of purified RanGTP and RCC1 with NLS receptor and import substrate prevented assembly of receptor/substrate complexes or stimulated their disassembly. 相似文献

The E6 protein from high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) targets the p53 tumor suppressor for degradation by the proteasome pathway. This ability contributes to the oncogenic potential of these viruses. However, several aspects concerning the mechanism of E6-mediated p53 degradation at the cellular level remain to be clarified. This study therefore examined the role of cell localization and ubiquitination in the E6-mediated degradation of p53. As demonstrated within, following coexpression both p53 and high-risk HPV type 18 (HPV-18) E6 (18E6) shuttle from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Mutation of the C-terminal nuclear export signal (NES) of p53 or treatment with leptomycin B inhibited the 18E6-mediated nuclear export of p53. Impairment of nuclear export resulted in only a partial reduction in 18E6-mediated degradation, suggesting that both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteasomes can target p53 for degradation. This was also consistent with the observation that 18E6 mediated the accumulation of polyubiquitinated p53 in the nucleus. In comparison, a p53 isoform that localizes predominantly to the cytoplasm was not targeted for degradation by 18E6 in vivo but could be degraded in vitro, arguing that nuclear p53 is the target for E6-mediated degradation. This study supports a model in which (i) E6 mediates the accumulation of polyubiquitinated p53 in the nucleus, (ii) E6 is coexported with p53 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm via a CRM1 nuclear export mechanism involving the C-terminal NES of p53, and (iii) E6-mediated p53 degradation can be mediated by both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteasomes. 相似文献

hGTSE-1 (human G(2) and S phase-expressed-1) is a cell cycle-regulated protein mainly localized in the cytoplasm and apparently associated with the microtubules. hGTSE-1 is able to down-regulate levels and activity of the p53 tumor suppressor protein: it binds the C-terminal region of p53 and represses its ability to induce apoptosis after DNA damage. Here we report that, after DNA damage, hGTSE-1 becomes stabilized in a p53-independent way and accumulated in the nucleus. Further characterization of hGTSE-1 localization revealed increased nuclear staining in unstressed cells after treatment with the nuclear export inhibitor leptomycin B, or when a nuclear export signal (NES) located in its C-terminal region was mutated. Finally, we provide evidence that hGTSE-1 ectopic expression, in addition to p53 protein levels down-regulation, is able to enhance cytoplasmic localization of p53. Interestingly, NES-mutated hGTSE-1 accumulates in the nucleus, binds p53 but looses its ability to enhance cytoplasmic redistribution of p53 and to regulate p53 protein levels. Similarly, when wild type hGTSE-1 functions on p53 were analyzed in cells lacking Mdm2, it failed in regulating both p53 localization and protein levels, thus indicating that hGTSE-1 requires an intact NES and functional Mdm2 for the regulation of p53. Our results provide new insights into the mechanism of hGTSE-1 function, whereby its characterized nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling ability is required to regulate p53. 相似文献

MTR10, previously shown to be involved in mRNA export, was found in a synthetic lethal relationship with nucleoporin NUP85. Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Mtr10p localizes preferentially inside the nucleus, but a nuclear pore and cytoplasmic distribution is also evident. Purified Mtr10p forms a complex with Npl3p, an RNA-binding protein that shuttles in and out of the nucleus. In mtr10 mutants, nuclear uptake of Npl3p is strongly impaired at the restrictive temperature, while import of a classic nuclear localization signal (NLS)-containing protein is not. Accordingly, the NLS within Npl3p is extended and consists of the RGG box plus a short and non-repetitive C-terminal tail. Mtr10p interacts in vitro with Gsp1p-GTP, but with low affinity. Interestingly, Npl3p dissociates from Mtr10p only by incubation with Ran-GTP plus RNA. This suggests that Npl3p follows a distinct nuclear import pathway and that intranuclear release from its specific import receptor Mtr10p requires the cooperative action of both Ran-GTP and newly synthesized mRNA. 相似文献

Activation of the p53 protein can lead to apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. In contrast, activation of the signalling pathway controlled by the Kit receptor tyrosine kinase prevents apoptosis and promotes cell division of a number of different cell types in vivo. We have investigated the consequences of activating the Kit signalling pathway by its ligand Steel factor on these opposing functions of the p53 protein in Friend erythroleukemia cells. A temperature-sensitive p53 allele (Val-135) was introduced into the Friend erythroleukemia cell line (DP-16) which lacks endogenous p53 expression. At 38.5 degrees C, the Val-135 protein maintains a mutant conformation and has no effect on cell growth. At 32 degrees C, the mutant protein assumes wild-type properties and induces these cells to arrest in G1, terminally differentiate, and die by apoptosis. We demonstrate that Steel factor inhibits p53-mediated apoptosis and differentiation but has no effect on p53-mediated G1/S cell cycle arrest. These results demonstrate that Steel factor functions as a cell survival factor in part through the suppression of differentiation and apoptosis induced by p53 and suggest that cell cycle arrest and apoptosis may be separable functions of p53. 相似文献

We have previously reported that in cells ectopically expressing temperature-sensitive p53(135val) mutant, p53 formed tight complexes with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). At elevated temperatures, p53(135val) protein, adopting the mutant phenotype, was localized in the cytoplasm and sequestered the endogenous PARP. To prove whether an excess of p53(135val) protein led to this unusual intracellular distribution of PARP, we have established cell lines overexpressing p53(135val) + c-Ha-ras alone or in combination with PARP. Interestingly, immunostaining revealed that PARP is sequestered in the cytoplasm by mutant p53 in cells overexpressing both proteins. Simultaneous overexpression of PARP had no effect on temperature-dependent cell proliferation and only negligibly affected the kinetics of p53-mediated G(1) arrest. However, if the cells were completely growth arrested at 32 degrees C and then shifted up to 37 degrees C, coexpressed PARP dramatically delayed the reentry of transformed cells into the cell cycle. Even after 72 h at 37 degrees C the proportion of S-phase cells was reduced to 20% compared to those expressing only p53(135val) + c-Ha-ras. The coexpressed PARP stabilized wt p53 protein and its enzymatic activity was necessary for stabilization. 相似文献

The growth inhibitory functions of p53 are controlled in unstressed cells by rapid degradation of the p53 protein. One of the principal regulators of p53 stability is MDM2, a RING finger protein that functions as an E3 ligase to ubiquitinate p53. MDM2 promotes p53 nuclear export, and in this study, we show that ubiquitination of the C terminus of p53 by MDM2 contributes to the efficient export of p53 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In contrast, MDM2 did not promote nuclear export of the p53-related protein, p73. p53 nuclear export was enhanced by overexpression of the export receptor CRM1, although no significant relocalization of MDM2 was seen in response to CRM1. However, nuclear export driven by CRM1 overexpression did not result in the degradation of p53, and nuclear export was not essential for p53 degradation. These results indicate that MDM2 mediated ubiquitination of p53 contributes to both nuclear export and degradation of p53 but that these activities are not absolutely dependent on each other. 相似文献

The asymmetric distribution of the constituents of the Ran system is essential for transport into and out of the nucleus. 总被引:13,自引:3,他引:10
The GTPase Ran is essential for nuclear import of proteins with a classical nuclear localization signal (NLS). Ran''s nucleotide-bound state is determined by the chromatin-bound exchange factor RCC1 generating RanGTP in the nucleus and the cytoplasmic GTPase activating protein RanGAP1 depleting RanGTP from the cytoplasm. This predicts a steep RanGTP concentration gradient across the nuclear envelope. RanGTP binding to importin-beta has previously been shown to release importin-alpha from -beta during NLS import. We show that RanGTP also induces release of the M9 signal from the second identified import receptor, transportin. The role of RanGTP distribution is further studied using three methods to collapse the RanGTP gradient. Nuclear injection of either RanGAP1, the RanGTP binding protein RanBP1 or a Ran mutant that cannot stably bind GTP. These treatments block major export and import pathways across the nuclear envelope. Different export pathways exhibit distinct sensitivities to RanGTP depletion, but all are more readily inhibited than is import of either NLS or M9 proteins, indicating that the block of export is direct rather than a secondary consequence of import inhibition. Surprisingly, nuclear export of several substrates including importin-alpha and -beta, transportin, HIV Rev and tRNA appears to require nuclear RanGTP but may not require GTP hydrolysis by Ran, suggesting that the energy for their nuclear export is supplied by another source. 相似文献

MDM2 can bind the N terminus of p53 and promote its ubiquitination and export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, where p53 can then be degraded by cytoplasmic proteasomes. Several studies have reported that an intact MDM2 binding domain is necessary for p53 to be targeted for ubiquitination, nuclear export, and degradation by MDM2. In the current study, we examined whether the MDM2 binding domain of p53 could be provided in trans through oligomerization between two p53 molecules. p53 proteins mutated in their MDM2 binding domains were unable to bind MDM2 directly and were resistant to MDM2-mediated ubiquitination, nuclear export, and degradation when expressed with MDM2 alone. However, these same p53 mutants formed a complex with MDM2 and were efficiently ubiquitinated, exported from the nucleus, and degraded when co-expressed with MDM2 and wild-type p53. Moreover, this effect required MDM2 binding by wild-type p53 as well as oligomerization between wild-type p53 and the MDM2 binding-deficient p53 mutants. Taken together, these results support a model whereby MDM2 binding-deficient forms of p53 can bind MDM2 indirectly through oligomerization with wild-type p53 and are subsequently targeted for ubiquitination, nuclear export, and degradation. These findings may have important implications regarding the DNA damage response of p53. 相似文献

Wild-type p53 accumulates in the nucleus following stress. Current models suggest this nuclear accumulation involves phosphorylation at p53 N-terminal sites, and inhibition of murine double minute (MDM)2-dependent nuclear export. We monitored the effects of stress on MDM2-dependent nuclear export of wild-type p53 and a mutant lacking N-terminal phosphorylation sites. Etoposide and ionizing radiation inhibited nuclear export of wild-type p53 and the phosphor-mutant to comparable extents, indicating nuclear export inhibition does not require N-terminal phosphorylation. Cytoplasmic p53 accumulated in the nucleus of transfected cells treated with the nuclear export-inhibitor leptomycin B (LMB). Interestingly, LMB caused less p53 nuclear accumulation than stress treatment, suggesting stress-induced nuclear accumulation of p53 does not result solely from inhibited nuclear export. 相似文献

Import of proteins containing a classical nuclear localization signal (NLS) into the nucleus is mediated by importin alpha and importin beta. Srp1p, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae homologue of importin alpha, returns from the nucleus in a complex with its export factor Cse1p and with Gsp1p (yeast Ran) in its GTP-bound state. We studied the role of the nucleoporin Nup2p in the transport cycle of Srp1p. Cells lacking NUP2 show a specific defect in both NLS import and Srp1p export, indicating that Nup2p is required for efficient bidirectional transport of Srp1p across the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Nup2p is located at the nuclear side of the central gated channel of the NPC and provides a binding site for Srp1p via its amino-terminal domain. We show that Nup2p effectively releases the NLS protein from importin alpha-importin and beta and strongly binds to the importin heterodimer via Srp1p. Kap95p (importin beta) is released from this complex by a direct interaction with Gsp1p-GTP. These data suggest that besides Gsp1p, which disassembles the NLS-importin alpha-importin beta complex upon binding to Kap95p in the nucleus, Nup2p can also dissociate the import complex by binding to Srp1p. We also show data indicating that Nup1p, a relative of Nup2p, plays a similar role in termination of NLS import. Cse1p and Gsp1p-GTP release Srp1p from Nup2p, which suggests that the Srp1p export complex can be formed directly at the NPC. The changed distribution of Cse1p at the NPC in nup2 mutants also supports a role for Nup2p in Srp1p export from the nucleus. 相似文献
