The Nef protein of primate lentiviruses down-regulates the cell surface expression of CD4 and probably MHC I by connecting these receptors with the endocytic machinery. Here, we reveal that Nef interacts with the mu chains of adaptor complexes, key components of clathrin-coated pits. For human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV-2) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Nef, this interaction occurs via tyrosine-based motifs reminiscent of endocytosis signals. Mutating these motifs prevents the binding of SIV Nef to the mu chain of plasma membrane adaptor complexes, abrogates its ability to induce CD4 internalization, suppresses the accelerated endocytosis of a chimeric integral membrane protein harboring Nef as its cytoplasmic domain and confers a dominant-negative phenotype to the viral protein. Taken together, these data identify mu adaptins as downstream mediators of the down-modulation of CD4, and possibly MHC I, by Nef. 相似文献

The SH3 domain-binding surface and an acidic motif in HIV-1 Nef regulate trafficking of class I MHC complexes. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Nef, a regulatory protein of human and simian immunodeficiency viruses, downregulates cell surface expression of both class I MHC and CD4 molecules in T cells by accelerating their endocytosis. Fibroblasts were used to study alterations in the traffic of class I MHC complexes induced by Nef. We found that Nef downregulates class I MHC complexes by a novel mechanism involving the accumulation of endocytosed class I MHC in the trans-Golgi, where it colocalizes with the adaptor protein-1 complex (AP-1). This effect of Nef on class I MHC traffic requires the SH3 domain-binding surface and a cluster of acidic amino acid residues in Nef, both of which are also required for Nef to downregulate class I MHC surface expression and to alter signal transduction in T cells. Downregulation of class I MHC complexes from the surface of T cells also requires a tyrosine residue in the cytoplasmic domain of the class I MHC heavy chain molecule. The requirement of the same surfaces of the Nef molecule for downregulation of surface class I MHC complexes in T cells and for their accumulation in the trans-Golgi of fibroblasts indicates that the two effects of Nef involve similar interactions with the host cell machinery and involve a molecular mechanism regulating class I MHC traffic that is common for both of these cell types. Interestingly, the downregulation of class I MHC does not require the ability of Nef to colocalize with the adaptor protein-2 complex (AP-2). We showed previously that the ability of Nef to colocalize with AP-2 correlates with the ability of Nef to downregulate CD4 expression. Our observations indicate that Nef downregulates class I MHC and CD4 surface expression via different interactions with the protein sorting machinery, and link the sorting and signal transduction machineries in the regulation of class I MHC surface expression by Nef. 相似文献

Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Nef proteins are related regulatory proteins that share several functions, including the ability to downregulate class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and CD4 expression on the cell surface and to alter T-cell-receptor-initiated signal transduction in T cells. We compared the mechanisms used by SIV mac239 Nef and HIV-1 Nef to downregulate class I MHC and found that the ability of SIV Nef to downregulate class I MHC requires a unique C-terminal region of the SIV mac239 Nef molecule which is not found in HIV-1 Nef. Interestingly, mutation of the PxxP motif in SIV Nef, unlike in HIV-1 Nef, does not affect class I MHC downregulation. We also found that downregulation of class I MHC by SIV Nef requires a conserved tyrosine in the cytoplasmic domain of the class I MHC heavy chain and involves accelerated endocytosis of class I complexes, as previously found with HIV-1 Nef. Thus, while SIV and HIV-1 Nef proteins use a similar mechanism to downregulate class I MHC expression, they have evolved different surfaces for molecular interactions with cell factors that regulate class I MHC traffic. Mutations in the C-terminal domain of SIV mac239 Nef selectively disrupt class I MHC downregulation, having no detectable effect on other functions of Nef, such as the downregulation of CD4 and CD3 surface expression, the stimulation of SIV virion infectivity, and the induction of SIV replication from T cells infected in the absence of stimulation. The resulting mutants will be useful reagents for studying the importance of class I MHC downregulation for SIV replication and AIDS pathogenesis in infected rhesus macaques. 相似文献

The simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Nef proteins induce the endocytosis of CD4 and class I MHC molecules. Here we show that SIV Nef interacts with the AP-2 adaptor complex via two elements located in the N-terminal region of the Nef molecule, but only the N-distal element is required to induce CD4 endocytosis. This N-distal AP-2 targeting element contains no canonical endocytic signals and probably contacts the AP-2 complex via a novel interaction surface. The data support a model where SIV Nef induces CD4 endocytosis by promoting the normal interactions between the di-leucine sorting signal in the CD4 cytoplasmic domain and AP-2, but does not substitute for the CD4-AP-2 adaptor interaction. Neither element is important for the induction of class I MHC endocytosis, thus indicating that different mechanisms underlie the induction of class I MHC and CD4 endocytosis by Nef. In contrast to SIV Nef, HIV-1 Nef interacts with AP-2 via a surface containing a di-leucine endocytosis signal in the C-terminal disordered loop of Nef. The fact that genetic selection maintains similar molecular interactions via different surfaces in SIV and HIV-1 Nef proteins indicates that these interactions have critical roles for the viral life cycle in vivo. 相似文献

Substitution of Y223F disrupts the ability of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) Nef to down-modulate major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I from the cell surface but has no effect on other Nef functions, such as down-regulation of CD4, CD28, and CD3 cell surface expression or stimulation of viral replication and enhancement of virion infectivity. Inoculation of three rhesus macaques with the SIVmac239 Y223F-Nef variant revealed that this point mutation consistently reverts and that Nef activity in MHC class I down-modulation is fully restored within 4 weeks after infection. Our results demonstrate a strong selective pressure for a tyrosine at amino acid position 223 in SIV Nef, and they constitute evidence that Nef-mediated MHC class I down-regulation provides a selective advantage for viral replication in vivo. 相似文献

The multifunctional simian and human immunodeficiency virus (SIV and HIV) Nef proteins are important for virulence. We studied the importance of selected Nef functions using an SIV Nef with mutations in two regions that are required for CD4 downregulation. This Nef mutant is defective for downregulating CD4 and, in addition, for enhancing SIV infectivity and induction of SIV replication from infected quiescent peripheral blood mononuclear cells, but not for other known functions, including downregulation of class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) cell surface expression. Replication of SIV containing this Nef variant in rhesus monkeys was attenuated early during infection. Subsequent increases in viral load coincided with selection of reversions and second-site compensatory changes in Nef. Our results indicate that the surfaces of Nef that mediate CD4 downregulation and the enhancement of virion infectivity are critical for SIV replication in vivo. Furthermore, these findings indicate that class I MHC downregulation by Nef is not sufficient for SIV virulence early in infection. 相似文献

The Nef protein of HIV-1 is essential for its pathogenicity and is known to down-regulate MHC expression on infected cell surfaces. We now show that Nef also redistributes the costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 away from the cell surface in the human monocytic U937 cell line as well as in mouse macrophages and dendritic cells. Furthermore, HIV-1-infected U937 cells and human blood-derived macrophages show a similar loss of cell surface CD80 and CD86. Nef colocalizes with MHC class I (MHCI), CD80, and CD86 in intracellular compartments, and binds to both mouse and human CD80 and CD86. Some Nef mutants defective in MHCI down-modulation, including one from a clinical isolate, remain capable of down-modulating CD80 and CD86. Nef-mediated loss of surface CD80/CD86 is functionally significant, because it leads to compromised activation of naive T cells. This novel immunomodulatory role of Nef may be of potential importance in explaining the correlations of macrophage-tropism and Nef with HIV-1 pathogenicity and immune evasion. 相似文献

Among the pleiotropic effects of Nef proteins of HIV and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), down-modulation of cell surface expression of CD4 is a prominent phenotype. It has been presumed that Nef proteins accelerate endocytosis of CD4 by linking the receptor to the AP-2 clathrin adaptor. However, the related AP-1 and AP-3 adaptors have also been shown to interact with Nef, hinting at role(s) for these complexes in the intracellular retention of CD4. By using genetic inhibitors of endocytosis and small interfering RNA-induced knockdown of AP-2, we show that accelerated CD4 endocytosis is not a dominant mechanism of HIV-1 (NL4-3 strain) Nef in epithelial cells, T lymphocyte cell lines, or peripheral blood lymphocytes. Furthermore, we show that both the CD4 recycling from the plasma membrane and the nascent CD4 in transit to the plasma membrane are susceptible to intracellular retention in HIV-1 Nef-expressing cells. In contrast, AP-2-mediated enhanced endocytosis constitutes the predominant mechanism for SIV (MAC-239 strain) Nef-induced down-regulation of human CD4 in human cells. 相似文献

The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Nef protein is an important virulence factor. Nef has several functions, including down-modulation of CD4 and class I major histocompatibility complex cell surface expression, enhancement of virion infectivity, and stimulation of viral replication in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Nef also increases HIV-1 replication in human lymphoid tissue (HLT) ex vivo. We analyzed recombinant and primary nef alleles with highly divergent activity in different in vitro assays to clarify which of these Nef activities are functionally linked. Our results demonstrate that Nef activity in CD4 down-regulation correlates significantly with the efficiency of HIV-1 replication and with the severity of CD4(+) T-cell depletion in HLT. In conclusion, HIV-1 Nef variants with increased activity in CD4 down-modulation would cause severe depletion of CD4(+) T cells in lymphoid tissues and accelerate AIDS progression. 相似文献

SIV and HIV Nef proteins disrupt T-cell receptor machinery by down-modulating cell surface expression of CD4 and expression or signaling of CD3-TCR. Nef also down-modulates class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) surface expression. We show that SIV and HIV-1 Nefs down-modulate CD28, a major co-stimulatory receptor that mediates effective T-cell activation, by accelerating CD28 endocytosis. The effects of Nef on CD28, CD4, CD3 and class I MHC expression are all genetically separable, indicating that all are selected independently. In cells expressing a Nef-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion, CD28 co-localizes with the AP-2 clathrin adaptor and Nef-GFP. Mutations that disrupt Nef interaction with AP-2 disrupt CD28 down-regulation. Furthermore, HIV and SIV Nefs use overlapping but distinct target sites in the membrane-proximal region of the CD28 cytoplasmic domain. Thus, Nef probably induces CD28 endocytosis via the AP-2 pathway, and this involves a ternary complex containing Nef, AP-2 and CD28. The likely consequence of the concerted down-regulation of CD28, CD4 and/or CD3 by Nef is disruption of antigen-specific signaling machineries in infected T cells following a productive antigen recognition event. 相似文献

Lipid rafts are membrane microdomains that are functionally distinct from other membrane regions. We have shown that 10% of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Nef expressed in SupT1 cells is present in lipid rafts and that this represents virtually all of the membrane-associated Nef. To determine whether raft targeting, rather than simply membrane localization, has functional significance, we created a Nef fusion protein (LAT-Nef) containing the N-terminal 35 amino acids from LAT, a protein that is exclusively localized to rafts. Greater than 90% of the LAT-Nef protein was found in the raft fraction. In contrast, a mutated form, lacking two cysteine palmitoylation sites, showed less than 5% raft localization. Both proteins were equally expressed and targeted nearly exclusively to membranes. The LAT-Nef protein was more efficient than its nonraft mutant counterpart at downmodulating both cell surface CD4 and class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) expression, as well as in enhancing first-round infectivity and being incorporated into virus particles. This demonstrates that targeting of Nef to lipid rafts is mechanistically important for all of these functions. Compared to wild-type Nef, LAT-Nef downmodulated class I MHC nearly as effectively as the wild-type Nef protein, but was only about 60% as effective for CD4 downmodulation and 30% as effective for infectivity enhancement. Since the LAT-Nef protein was found entirely in rafts while the wild-type Nef protein was distributed 10% in rafts and 90% in the soluble fraction, our results suggest that class I MHC downmodulation by Nef may be performed exclusively by raft-bound Nef. In contrast, CD4 downmodulation and infectivity enhancement may require a non-membrane-bound Nef component as well as the membrane-bound form. 相似文献

Tubules and vesicles are membrane carriers involved in traffic along the endocytic and secretory routes. The small GTPase Arf6 regulates a recycling branch of short dynamic tubular intermediates used by major histocompatibility class I (MHC-I) molecules to traffic through vesicles between endosomes and the plasma membrane. We observed that Arf6 also affects a second network of very long and stable tubules containing MHC-I, many of which correspond to deep invaginations of the plasma membrane. Treatment with wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate kinase, prevents formation of the short dynamic tubules while increasing the number of the long and very stable ones. Expression of NefAAAA, a mutant form of HIV Nef, increases the number of cells containing the stable tubules, and is used here as a tool to facilitate their study. Photoactivation of NefAAAA-PA-GFP demonstrates that this molecule traffics from endosomes to the tubules. Finally, live-cell imaging also shows internalization of MHC-I molecules into these tubules, suggesting that this is an additional route for MHC-I traffic. 相似文献

We analyzed two primary nef sequences, KS2 (subtype B) and K306 (subtype D), each directly isolated from patients. Cell lines constitutively expressing respective Nef proteins were constructed using a retroviral vector. There were significant differences in the ability to downregulate surface CD4 and MHC class I proteins between different nef sequences. When the nef sequence from NL432 was used as a reference, KS2 Nef demonstrated the highest ability to downregulate MHC class I, whereas it appeared to lack the ability to downregulate CD4. On the contrary, Nef from K306 decreased the level of surface CD4 to a greater extent, but was less effective on downregulation of MHC class I. These results showed that the levels of downregulation of CD4 and MHC class I could significantly vary among HIV strains and that two well-known functions of Nef, downregulation of CD4 and MHC class I, would be separated. 相似文献

Clathrin-independent endocytosis internalizes plasma membrane proteins that lack cytoplasmic sequences recognized by clathrin adaptor proteins. There is evidence for different clathrin-independent pathways but whether they share common features has not been systematically tested. Here, we examined whether CD59, an endogenous glycosylphosphatidyl inositol-anchored protein (GPI-AP), and major histocompatibility protein class I (MHCI), an endogenous, integral membrane protein, entered cells through a common mechanism and followed a similar itinerary. At early times of internalization, CD59 and MHCI were found in the same Arf6-associated endosomes before joining clathrin cargo proteins such as transferrin in common sorting endosomes. CD59 and MHCI, but not transferrin, also were observed in the Arf6-associated tubular recycling membranes. Endocytosis of CD59 and MHCI required free membrane cholesterol because it was inhibited by filipin binding to the cell surface. Expression of active Arf6 stimulated endocytosis of GPI-APs and MHCI to the same extent and led to their accumulation in Arf6 endosomes that labeled intensely with filipin. This blocked delivery of GPI-APs and MHCI to early sorting endosomes and to lysosomes for degradation. Endocytosis of transferrin was not affected by any of these treatments. These observations suggest common mechanisms for endocytosis without clathrin. 相似文献

In mammals, the mucolipin family includes three members mucolipin-1, mucolipin-2, and mucolipin-3 (MCOLN1-3). While mutations in MCOLN1 and MCOLN3 have been associated with mucolipidosis type IV and the varitint-waddler mouse phenotype, respectively, little is known about the function and cellular distribution of MCOLN2. Here we show that MCOLN2 traffics via the Arf6-associated pathway and colocalizes with major histocompatibility protein class I (MHCI) and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-APs), such as CD59 in both vesicles and long tubular structures. Expression of a constitutive active Arf6 mutant, or activation of endogenous Arf6 by transfection with EFA6 or treatment with aluminum fluoride, caused accumulation of MCOLN2 in enlarged vacuoles that also contain MHCI and CD59. In addition, overexpression of MCOLN2 promoted efficient activation of Arf6 in vivo, thus suggesting that MCOLN2 may have a role in the traffic of cargo through the Arf6-associated pathway. In support of this we found that overexpression of a MCOLN2 inactive mutant decreases recycling of CD59 to the plasma membrane. Therefore, our results indicate that MCOLN2 localizes to the Arf6-regulated pathway and regulates sorting of GPI-APs. 相似文献

Nef is the viral gene product employed by the majority of primate lentiviruses to overcome restriction by tetherin (BST-2 or CD317), an interferon-inducible transmembrane protein that inhibits the detachment of enveloped viruses from infected cells. Although the mechanisms of tetherin antagonism by HIV-1 Vpu and HIV-2 Env have been investigated in detail, comparatively little is known about tetherin antagonism by SIV Nef. Here we demonstrate a direct physical interaction between SIV Nef and rhesus macaque tetherin, define the residues in Nef required for tetherin antagonism, and show that the anti-tetherin activity of Nef is dependent on clathrin-mediated endocytosis. SIV Nef co-immunoprecipitated with rhesus macaque tetherin and the Nef core domain bound directly to a peptide corresponding to the cytoplasmic domain of rhesus tetherin by surface plasmon resonance. An analysis of alanine-scanning substitutions identified residues throughout the N-terminal, globular core and flexible loop regions of Nef that were required for tetherin antagonism. Although there was significant overlap with sequences required for CD4 downregulation, tetherin antagonism was genetically separable from this activity, as well as from other Nef functions, including MHC class I-downregulation and infectivity enhancement. Consistent with a role for clathrin and dynamin 2 in the endocytosis of tetherin, dominant-negative mutants of AP180 and dynamin 2 impaired the ability of Nef to downmodulate tetherin and to counteract restriction. Taken together, these results reveal that the mechanism of tetherin antagonism by Nef depends on a physical interaction between Nef and tetherin, requires sequences throughout Nef, but is genetically separable from other Nef functions, and leads to the removal of tetherin from sites of virus release at the plasma membrane by clathrin-mediated endocytosis. 相似文献

The nef gene products encoded by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and simian immunodeficiency virus type 1 (SIV-1) increase viral loads in infected hosts and accelerate clinical progression to AIDS. Nef exhibits a spectrum of biological activities, including the ability to downregulate surface expression of CD4 and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigens, to alter the state of T-cell activation, and to enhance the infectivity of viral particles. To determine which of these in vitro functions most closely correlates with the pathogenic effects of Nef in vivo, we constructed recombinant HIV-1 NL4-3 viruses carrying mutations within the nef gene that selectively impair these functions. These mutant viruses were evaluated for pathogenic potential in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice implanted with human fetal thymus and liver (SCID-hu Thy/Liv mice), in which virus-mediated depletion of thymocytes is known to be Nef dependent. Disruption of the polyproline type II helix (Pxx)4 within Nef (required for binding of Hck and p21-activated kinase-like kinases, downregulation of MHC class I, and enhancement of HIV-1 infectivity in vitro but dispensable for CD4 downregulation) did not impair thymocyte depletion in virus-infected Thy/Liv human thymus implants. Conversely, three separate point mutations in Nef that compromised its ability to downregulate CD4 attenuated thymocyte depletion while not diminishing viral replication. These findings indicate that the functional ability of Nef to downregulate CD4 and not MHC class I downregulation, Hck or PAK binding, or (Pxx)4-associated enhancement of infectivity most closely correlates with Nef-mediated enhancement of HIV-1 pathogenicity in vivo. Nef-mediated CD4 downregulation merits consideration as a new target for the development of small-molecule inhibitors. 相似文献

A tubular EHD1-containing compartment involved in the recycling of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules to the plasma membrane 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

The Eps15 homology (EH) domain-containing protein, EHD1, has recently been ascribed a role in the recycling of receptors internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis. A subset of plasma membrane proteins can undergo internalization by a clathrin-independent pathway regulated by the small GTP-binding protein ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6). Here, we report that endogenous EHD proteins, as well as transgenic tagged EHD1, are associated with long, membrane-bound tubules containing Arf6. EHD1 appears to induce tubule formation, which requires nucleotide cycling on Arf6 and intact microtubules. Mutations in the N-terminal P-loop domain or deletion of the C-terminal EH domain of EHD1 prevent association of EHD1 with tubules or induction of tubule formation. The EHD1 tubules contain internalized major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) molecules that normally traffic through the Arf6 pathway. Recycling assays show that overexpression of EHD1 enhances MHC-I recycling. These observations suggest an additional function of EHD1 as a tubule-inducing factor in the Arf6 pathway for recycling of plasma membrane proteins internalized by clathrin-independent endocytosis. 相似文献

The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) early gene product Nef is a multifunctional protein that alters numerous pathways of T-cell function, including endocytosis, signal transduction, vesicular trafficking, and immune modulation, and is a major determinant of pathogenesis. Individual Nef functions include PAK-2 activation, CD4 downregulation, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I downregulation, and enhancement of viral particle infectivity. How Nef accomplishes its multiple tasks presents a difficult problem of mechanistic analysis because of the complications associated with multiple, overlapping functional domains in the context of significant sequence variability. To address these issues we determined the conservation of each Nef residue based on 1,643 subtype B Nef sequences. Mutational analysis based on conservative substitutions and Nef sequence data allowed us to search for amino acids on the surface of Nef that are specifically required for PAK-2 activation. We found residues 85, 89, and 191 to be highly significant determinants for Nef's PAK-2 activation function but functionally unlinked to CD4 and MHC class I downregulation or enhancement of infectivity. These residues are not conserved across HIV-1 subtypes but are confined to separate sets of surface elements within a subtype. Thus, L85/H89/F191 and F85/F89/R191 are dominant in subtype B and subtype E or C, respectively. Our results provide support for developing subtype-specific interventions in HIV-1 disease. 相似文献

CD99 regulates the transport of MHC class I molecules from the Golgi complex to the cell surface 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Sohn HW Shin YK Lee IS Bae YM Suh YH Kim MK Kim TJ Jung KC Park WS Park CS Chung DH Ahn K Kim IS Ko YH Bang YJ Kim CW Park SH 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2001,166(2):787-794
The down-regulation of surface expression of MHC class I molecules has recently been reported in the CD99-deficient lymphoblastoid B cell line displaying the characteristics of Hodgkin's and Reed-Sternberg phenotype. Here, we demonstrate that the reduction of MHC class I molecules on the cell surface is primarily due to a defect in the transport from the Golgi complex to the plasma membrane. Loss of CD99 did not affect the steady-state expression levels of mRNA and protein of MHC class I molecules. In addition, the assembly of MHC class I molecules and the transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cis-Golgi occurred normally in the CD99-deficient cells, and no difference was detected between the CD99-deficient and the control cells in the pattern and degree of endocytosis. Instead, the CD99-deficient cells displayed the delayed transport of newly synthesized MHC class I molecules to the plasma membrane, thus causing accumulation of the molecules within the cells. The accumulated MHC class I molecules in the CD99-deficient cells were colocalized with alpha-mannosidase II and gamma-adaptin in the Golgi compartment. These results suggest that CD99 may be associated with the post-Golgi trafficking machinery by regulating the transport to the plasma membrane rather than the endocytosis of surface MHC class I molecules, providing a novel mechanism of MHC class I down-regulation for immune escape. 相似文献
