Syntaxin-1A is a t-SNARE that is involved in vesicle docking and vesicle fusion; it is important in presynaptic exocytosis in neurons because it interacts with many regulatory proteins. Previously, we found the following: 1) that autophosphorylated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), an important modulator of neural plasticity, interacts with syntaxin-1A to regulate exocytosis, and 2) that a syntaxin missense mutation (R151G) attenuated this interaction. To determine more precisely the physiological importance of this interaction between CaMKII and syntaxin, we generated mice with a knock-in (KI) syntaxin-1A (R151G) mutation. Complexin is a molecular clamp involved in exocytosis, and in the KI mice, recruitment of complexin to the SNARE complex was reduced because of an abnormal CaMKII/syntaxin interaction. Nevertheless, SNARE complex formation was not inhibited, and consequently, basal neurotransmission was normal. However, the KI mice did exhibit more enhanced presynaptic plasticity than wild-type littermates; this enhanced plasticity could be associated with synaptic response than did wild-type littermates; this pronounced response included several behavioral abnormalities. Notably, the R151G phenotypes were generally similar to previously reported CaMKII mutant phenotypes. Additionally, synaptic recycling in these KI mice was delayed, and the density of synaptic vesicles was reduced. Taken together, our results indicated that this single point mutation in syntaxin-1A causes abnormal regulation of neuronal plasticity and vesicle recycling and that the affected syntaxin-1A/CaMKII interaction is essential for normal brain and synaptic functions in vivo. 相似文献

Syntaphilin: a syntaxin-1 clamp that controls SNARE assembly 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Syntaxin-1 is a key component of the synaptic vesicle docking/fusion machinery that forms the SNARE complex with VAMP/synaptobrevin and SNAP-25. Identifying proteins that modulate SNARE complex formation is critical for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying neurotransmitter release and its modulation. We have cloned and characterized a protein called syntaphilin that is selectively expressed in brain. Syntaphilin competes with SNAP-25 for binding to syntaxin-1 and inhibits SNARE complex formation by absorbing free syntaxin-1. Transient overexpression of syntaphilin in cultured hippocampal neurons significantly reduces neurotransmitter release. Furthermore, introduction of syntaphilin into presynaptic superior cervical ganglion neurons in culture inhibits synaptic transmission. These findings suggest that syntaphilin may function as a molecular clamp that controls free syntaxin-1 availability for the assembly of the SNARE complex, and thereby regulates synaptic vesicle exocytosis. 相似文献

Differential Phosphorylation of Syntaxin and Synaptosome-Associated
Protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) Isoforms 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Abstract : The synaptic plasma membrane proteins syntaxin and synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) are central participants in synaptic vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. Together with the synaptic vesicle protein synaptobrevin/vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP), they serve as receptors for the general membrane trafficking factors N -ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) and soluble NSF attachment protein (α-SNAP). Consequently, syntaxin, SNAP-25, and VAMP (and their isoforms in other membrane trafficking pathways) have been termed SNAP receptors (SNAREs). Because protein phosphorylation is a common and important mechanism for regulating a variety of cellular processes, including synaptic transmission, we have investigated the ability of syntaxin and SNAP-25 isoforms to serve as substrates for a variety of serine/threonine protein kinases. Syntaxins 1A and 4 were phosphorylated by casein kinase II, whereas syntaxin 3 and SNAP-25 were phosphorylated by Ca2+ - and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, respectively. The biochemical consequences of SNARE protein phosphorylation included a reduced interaction between SNAP-25 and phosphorylated syntaxin 4 and an enhanced interaction between phosphorylated syntaxin 1A and the synaptic vesicle protein synaptotagmin I, a potential Ca2+ sensor in triggering synaptic vesicle exocytosis. No other effects on the formation of SNARE complexes (comprised of syntaxin, SNAP-25, and VAMP) or interactions involving n-Sec1 or α-SNAP were observed. These findings suggest that although phosphorylation does not directly regulate the assembly of the synaptic SNARE complex, it may serve to modulate SNARE complex function through other proteins, including synaptotagmin I. 相似文献

BackgroundSyntaxin-1A and Sso1 are syntaxin family SNARE proteins engaged in synaptic vesicle fusion and yeast exocytosis. The syntaxin-1A SNARE motif can form a fusogenic SNARE complex with Sso1 partners. However, a chimera in which the SNARE motif in syntaxin-1A is introduced into Sso1 was not functional in yeast because the chimera is retained in the ER. Through the analysis of the transport defect of Sso1/syntaxin-1A chimeric SNAREs, we found that their SNARE motifs have distinctive properties.MethodsSso1, syntaxin-1A, and Sso1/syntaxin-1A chimeric SNAREs were expressed in yeast cells and their localization and interaction with other SNAREs are analyzed.ResultsSNARE proteins containing the syntaxin-1A SNARE motif exhibit a transport defect because they form a cis-SNARE complex in the ER. Ectopic SNARE complex formation can be prevented in syntaxin-1A by binding to a Sec1/Munc-18-like (SM) protein. In contrast, the SNARE motif of Sso1 does not form an ectopic SNARE complex. Additionally, we found that the SNARE motif in syntaxin-1A, but not that in Sso1, self-interacts, even when it is in the inactive form and bound to the SM protein.ConclusionsThe SNARE motif in syntaxin-1A, but not in Sso1, likely forms ectopic SNARE complex. Because of this property, the SM protein is necessary for syntaxin-1A to prevent its promiscuous assembly and to promote its export from the ER.General significanceProperties of SNARE motifs affect characteristics of SNARE proteins. The regulatory mechanisms of SNARE proteins are, in part, designed to handle such properties. 相似文献

Casein kinases I (CKI) are serine/threonine protein kinases widely expressed in a range of eukaryotes including yeast, mammals and plants. They have been shown to play a role in diverse physiological events including membrane trafficking. CKI alpha is associated with synaptic vesicles and phosphorylates some synaptic vesicle associated proteins including SV2. In this report, we show that syntaxin-1A is phosphorylated in vitro by CKI on Thr21. Casein kinase II (CKII) has been shown previously to phosphorylate syntaxin-1A in vitro and we have identified Ser14 as the CKII phosphorylation site, which is known to be phosphorylated in vivo. As syntaxin-1A plays a key role in the regulation of neurotransmitter release by forming part of the SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) complex, we propose that CKI may play a role in synaptic vesicle exocytosis. 相似文献

Munc18-1 and soluble NSF attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) are critical for synaptic vesicle fusion. Munc18-1 binds to the SNARE syntaxin-1 folded into a closed conformation and to SNARE complexes containing open syntaxin-1. Understanding which steps in fusion depend on the latter interaction and whether Munc18-1 competes with other factors such as complexins for SNARE complex binding is critical to elucidate the mechanisms involved. In this study, we show that lentiviral expression of Munc18-1 rescues abrogation of release in Munc18-1 knockout mice. We describe point mutations in Munc18-1 that preserve tight binding to closed syntaxin-1 but markedly disrupt Munc18-1 binding to SNARE complexes containing open syntaxin-1. Lentiviral rescue experiments reveal that such disruption selectively impairs synaptic vesicle priming but not Ca2+-triggered fusion of primed vesicles. We also find that Munc18-1 and complexin-1 bind simultaneously to SNARE complexes. These results suggest that Munc18-1 binding to SNARE complexes mediates synaptic vesicle priming and that the resulting primed state involves a Munc18-1–SNARE–complexin macromolecular assembly that is poised for Ca2+ triggering of fusion. 相似文献

The soluble N-ethyl maleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor machinery is involved in membrane docking and fusion. In this machinery, the syntaxin family is a central coordinator and participates in multiple protein-protein interactions. In this study we have shown that alpha-fodrin, nonerythroid spectrin, is a new binding partner of the syntaxin family. alpha-Fodrin bound to syntaxin-1a, -3, and -4, all of which are localized on the plasma membrane. Syntaxin-3 interacted with alpha-fodrin in dose-dependent and saturable manners but not with alpha-spectrin, erythroid spectrin. Syntaxin-3 interacted with alpha-fodrin through its C-terminal coiled-coil region. Binding of Munc18 or SNAP-25 to syntaxin-1a inhibited the interaction of alpha-fodrin with syntaxin-1a. Available evidence indicates that alpha-fodrin is implicated in exocytosis, but a precise mode of action of alpha-fodrin in exocytosis remains unclear. Our results suggest that alpha-fodrin regulates exocytosis through the interaction with members of the syntaxin family. 相似文献

SNARE complex oligomerization by synaphin/complexin is essential for synaptic vesicle exocytosis 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Synaphin/complexin is a cytosolic protein that preferentially binds to syntaxin within the SNARE complex. We find that synaphin promotes SNAREs to form precomplexes that oligomerize into higher order structures. A peptide from the central, syntaxin binding domain of synaphin competitively inhibits these two proteins from interacting and prevents SNARE complexes from oligomerizing. Injection of this peptide into squid giant presynaptic terminals inhibited neurotransmitter release at a late prefusion step of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. We propose that oligomerization of SNARE complexes into a higher order structure creates a SNARE scaffold for efficient, regulated fusion of synaptic vesicles. 相似文献

The fusion of transport vesicles with their cognate target membranes, an essential event in intracellular membrane trafficking, is regulated by SNARE proteins and Rab GTPases. Rab GTPases are thought to act prior to SNAREs in vesicle docking, but the exact biochemical relationship between the two classes of molecules is not known. We recently identified the early endosomal autoantigen EEA1 as an effector of Rab5 in endocytic membrane fusion. Here we demonstrate that EEA1 interacts directly and specifically with syntaxin-6, a SNARE implicated in trans-Golgi network to early endosome trafficking. The binding site for syntaxin-6 overlaps with that of Rab5-GTP at the C terminus of EEA1. Syntaxin-6 and EEA1 were found to colocalize extensively on early endosomes, although syntaxin-6 is present in the trans-Golgi network as well. Our results indicate that SNAREs can interact directly with Rab effectors, and suggest that EEA1 may participate in trans-Golgi network to endosome as well as in endocytic membrane traffic. 相似文献

The SM protein UNC-18 has been proposed to regulate several aspects of secretion, including synaptic vesicle docking, priming, and fusion. Here, we show that UNC-18 has a chaperone function in neurons, promoting anterograde transport of the plasma membrane soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) protein Syntaxin-1. In unc-18 mutants, UNC-64 (Caenorhabditis elegans Syntaxin-1) accumulates in neuronal cell bodies. Colocalization studies and analysis of carbohydrate modifications both suggest that this accumulation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum. This trafficking defect is specific for UNC-64 Syntaxin-1, because 14 other SNARE proteins and two active zone markers were unaffected. UNC-18 binds to Syntaxin through at least two mechanisms: binding to closed Syntaxin, or to the N terminus of Syntaxin. It is unclear which of these binding modes mediates UNC-18 function in neurons. The chaperone function of UNC-18 was eliminated in double mutants predicted to disrupt both modes of Syntaxin binding, but it was unaffected in single mutants. By contrast, mutations predicted to disrupt UNC-18 binding to the N terminus of Syntaxin caused significant defects in locomotion behavior and responsiveness to cholinesterase inhibitors. Collectively, these results demonstrate the UNC-18 acts as a molecular chaperone for Syntaxin transport in neurons and that the two modes of UNC-18 binding to Syntaxin are involved in different aspects of UNC-18 function. 相似文献

Ca2+-triggered vesicle exocytosis in neuroendocrine cells requires priming reactions that follow vesicle tethering/docking and precede triggered fusion. Priming requires PI(4,5)P2 and priming factors, and likely involves SNARE protein complex assembly. In studies with proteoliposomes, the priming factor CAPS interacts with PI(4,5)P2, binds the SNARE protein syntaxin-1, promotes trans SNARE complex formation, and stimulates PI(4,5)P2- and SNARE-dependent liposome fusion. We propose that CAPS functions in priming vesicle exocytosis by coupling membrane binding to SNARE complex assembly. 相似文献

Munc18-1 promotes large dense-core vesicle docking. 总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21

Secretory vesicles dock at the plasma membrane before Ca(2+) triggers their exocytosis. Exocytosis requires the assembly of SNARE complexes formed by the vesicle protein Synaptobrevin and the membrane proteins Syntaxin-1 and SNAP-25. We analyzed the role of Munc18-1, a cytosolic binding partner of Syntaxin-1, in large dense-core vesicle (LDCV) secretion. Calcium-dependent LDCV exocytosis was reduced 10-fold in mouse chromaffin cells lacking Munc18-1, but the kinetic properties of the remaining release, including single fusion events, were not different from controls. Concomitantly, mutant cells displayed a 10-fold reduction in morphologically docked LDCVs. Moreover, acute overexpression of Munc18-1 in bovine chromaffin cells increased the amount of releasable vesicles and accelerated vesicle supply. We conclude that Munc18-1 functions upstream of SNARE complex formation and promotes LDCV docking. 相似文献

Docking to the plasma membrane prepares vesicles for rapid release. Here, we describe a mechanism for dense core vesicle docking in neurons. In Caenorhabditis elegans motor neurons, dense core vesicles dock at the plasma membrane but are excluded from active zones at synapses. We have found that the calcium-activated protein for secretion (CAPS) protein is required for dense core vesicle docking but not synaptic vesicle docking. In contrast, we see that UNC-13, a docking factor for synaptic vesicles, is not essential for dense core vesicle docking. Both the CAPS and UNC-13 docking pathways converge on syntaxin, a component of the SNARE (soluble N-ethyl-maleimide-sensitive fusion protein attachment receptor) complex. Overexpression of open syntaxin can bypass the requirement for CAPS in dense core vesicle docking. Thus, CAPS likely promotes the open state of syntaxin, which then docks dense core vesicles. CAPS function in dense core vesicle docking parallels UNC-13 in synaptic vesicle docking, which suggests that these related proteins act similarly to promote docking of independent vesicle populations. 相似文献

Syntaxin 1A binds to and inhibits epithelial cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channels and synaptic Ca(2+) channels in addition to participating in SNARE complex assembly and membrane fusion. We exploited the isoform-specific nature of the interaction between syntaxin 1A and CFTR to identify residues in the H3 domain of this SNARE (SNARE motif) that influence CFTR binding and regulation. Mutating isoform-specific residues that map to the surface of syntaxin 1A in the SNARE complex led to the identification of two sets of hydrophilic residues that are important for binding to and regulating CFTR channels or for binding to the syntaxin regulatory protein Munc-18a. None of these mutations affected syntaxin 1A binding to other SNAREs or the assembly and stability of SNARE complexes in vitro. Conversely, the syntaxin 1A-CFTR interaction was unaffected by mutating hydrophobic residues in the H3 domain that influence SNARE complex stability and Ca(2+) channel regulation. Thus, CFTR channel regulation by syntaxin 1A involves hydrophilic interactions that are mechanistically distinct from the hydrophobic interactions that mediate SNARE complex formation and Ca(2+) channel regulation by this t-SNARE. 相似文献

Syntaxin-1是特异性地分布在神经细胞突触前质膜上的蛋白。它早期被作为分子量为35 kD的synaptotagmin-1结合蛋白,但很快就被认识到是细胞质膜融合的关键蛋白。Syntaxin-1通过与SNAP25和Synaptobrevin/VAMP蛋白聚合,进而形成被认为是神经突触囊泡融合必要因子的SNARE核心复合体。作为一个多结构域的蛋白,syntaxin-1与多个突触蛋白相互作用,其作用远超出了仅作为SNARE核心复合体中一个蛋白质成员的作用。本文着重介绍了有关syntaxin-1与其它SNARE组份蛋白、munc18蛋白和钙离子通道的相互作用及其功能的最新研究进展。全面揭示syntaxin-1作为SNARE核心复合体成员的功能以及超越这一功能的作用,还有待于对其结构以及与其它突触蛋白相互作用特性的进一步深刻理解。 相似文献

Synaptic vesicle fusion is mediated by SNARE proteins forming in between synaptic vesicle (v-SNARE) and plasma membrane (t-SNARE), one of which is Syntaxin-1A. Although exocytosis mainly occurs at active zones, Syntaxin-1A appears to cover the entire neuronal membrane. By using STED super-resolution light microscopy and image analysis of Drosophila neuro-muscular junctions, we show that Syntaxin-1A clusters are more abundant and have an increased size at active zones. A computational particle-based model of syntaxin cluster formation and dynamics is developed. The model is parametrized to reproduce Syntaxin cluster-size distributions found by STED analysis, and successfully reproduces existing FRAP results. The model shows that the neuronal membrane is adjusted in a way to strike a balance between having most syntaxins stored in large clusters, while still keeping a mobile fraction of syntaxins free or in small clusters that can efficiently search the membrane or be traded between clusters. This balance is subtle and can be shifted toward almost no clustering and almost complete clustering by modifying the syntaxin interaction energy on the order of only 1 kBT. This capability appears to be exploited at active zones. The larger active-zone syntaxin clusters are more stable and provide regions of high docking and fusion capability, whereas the smaller clusters outside may serve as flexible reserve pool or sites of spontaneous ectopic release. 相似文献

SNAP-25/syntaxin 1A complex functionally modulates neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid reuptake
Neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) release to the synaptic clefts is mediated by the formation of a soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, which includes two target SNAREs syntaxin 1A and SNAP-25 and one vesicle SNARE VAMP-2. The target SNAREs syntaxin 1A and SNAP-25 form a heterodimer, the putative intermediate of the SNARE complex. Neurotransmitter GABA clearance from synaptic clefts is carried out by the reuptake function of its transporters to terminate the postsynaptic signaling. Syntaxin 1A directly binds to the neuronal GABA transporter GAT-1 and inhibits its reuptake function. However, whether other SNARE proteins or SNARE complex regulates GABA reuptake remains unknown. Here we demonstrate that SNAP-25 efficiently inhibits GAT-1 reuptake function in the presence of syntaxin 1A. This inhibition depends on SNAP-25/syntaxin 1A complex formation. The H3 domain of syntaxin 1A is identified as the binding sites for both SNAP-25 and GAT-1. SNAP-25 binding to syntaxin 1A greatly potentiates the physical interaction of syntaxin 1A with GAT-1 and significantly enhances the syntaxin 1A-mediated inhibition of GAT-1 reuptake function. Furthermore, nitric oxide, which promotes SNAP-25 binding to syntaxin 1A to form the SNARE complex, also potentiates the interaction of syntaxin 1A with GAT-1 and suppresses GABA reuptake by GAT-1. Thus our findings delineate a further molecular mechanism for the regulation of GABA reuptake by a target SNARE complex and suggest a direct coordination between GABA release and reuptake. 相似文献

cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) can modulate synaptic transmission by acting directly on the neurotransmitter secretory machinery. Here, we identify one possible target: syntaphilin, which was identified as a molecular clamp that controls free syntaxin-1 and dynamin-1 availability and thereby regulates synaptic vesicle exocytosis and endocytosis. Deletion mutation and site-directed mutagenesis experiments pinpoint dominant PKA phosphorylation sites to serines 43 and 56. PKA phosphorylation of syntaphilin significantly decreases its binding to syntaxin-1A in vitro. A syntaphilin mutation of serine 43 to aspartic acid (S43D) shows similar effects on binding. To characterize in vivo phosphorylation events, we generated antisera against a peptide of syntaphilin containing a phosphorylated serine 43. Treatment of rat brain synaptosomes or syntaphilin-transfected HEK 293 cells with the cAMP analogue BIMPS induces in vivo phosphorylation of syntaphilin and inhibits its interaction with syntaxin-1 in neurons. To determine whether PKA phosphorylation of syntaphilin is involved in the regulation of Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis, we investigated the effect of overexpression of syntaphilin and its S43D mutant on the regulated secretion of human growth hormone from PC12 cells. Although expression of wild type syntaphilin in PC12 cells exhibits significant reduction in high K(+)-induced human growth hormone release, the S43D mutant fails to inhibit exocytosis. Our data predict that syntaphilin could be a highly regulated molecule and that PKA phosphorylation could act as an "off" switch for syntaphilin, thus blocking its inhibitory function via the cAMP-dependent signal transduction pathway. 相似文献

Sec1/munc18-like proteins (SM proteins) and SNARE complexes are probably universally required for membrane fusion. However, the molecular mechanism by which they interact has only been defined for synaptic vesicle fusion where munc18 binds to syntaxin in a closed conformation that is incompatible with SNARE complex assembly. We now show that Sly1, an SM protein involved in Golgi and ER fusion, binds to a short, evolutionarily conserved N-terminal peptide of Sed5p and Ufe1p in yeast and of syntaxins 5 and 18 in vertebrates. In these syntaxins, the Sly1 binding peptide is upstream of a separate, autonomously folded N-terminal domain. These data suggest a potentially general mechanism by which SM proteins could interact with peptides in target proteins independent of core complex assembly and suggest that munc18 binding to syntaxin is an exception. 相似文献
