Rab GTPases are recognized as critical regulatory factors involved in vesicular membrane transport and endosomal fusion. For example, Rab5 directs the transport and fusion of endocytic vesicles to and with early endosomes, whereas Rab4 is thought to control protein trafficking from early endosomes back to the plasma membrane. In the present study, we investigated the role of Rab5 and Rab4 GTPases in regulating the endocytosis, intracellular sorting, and the plasma membrane recycling of the beta(2)AR. In cells expressing the dominant-negative Rab5-S34N mutant, beta(2)AR internalization was impaired, and beta(2)AR-bearing endocytic vesicles remained in either close juxtaposition or physically attached to the plasma membrane. In contrast, a constitutively active Rab5-Q79L mutant redirected internalized beta(2)AR to enlarged endosomes but did not prevent beta(2)AR dephosphorylation and recycling. The expression of either wild-type Rab4 or a Rab4-N121I mutant did not prevent beta(2)AR dephosphorylation. However, the dominant-negative Rab4-N121I mutant blocked beta(2)AR resensitization by blocking receptor recycling from endosomes back to the cell surface. Our data indicate that, in addition to regulating the intracellular trafficking and fusion of beta(2)AR-bearing endocytic vesicles, Rab5 also contributes to the formation and/or budding of clathrin-coated vesicles. Furthermore, beta(2)AR dephosphorylation occurs as the receptor transits between Rab5- and Rab4-positive compartments. 相似文献

The beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)AR) shows the resistance to agonist-induced internalization. As beta-arrestin is important for internalization, we examine the interaction of beta-arrestin with beta(1)AR with three different methods: intracellular trafficking of beta-arrestin, binding of in vitro translated beta-arrestin to intracellular domains of beta(1)- and beta(2)ARs, and inhibition of betaAR-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activities by beta-arrestin. The green fluorescent protein-tagged beta-arrestin 2 translocates to and stays at the plasma membrane by beta(2)AR stimulation. Although green fluorescent protein-tagged beta-arrestin 2 also translocates to the plasma membrane, it returns to the cytoplasm 10-30 min after beta(1)AR stimulation. The binding of in vitro translated beta-arrestin 1 and beta-arrestin 2 to the third intracellular loop and the carboxyl tail of beta(1)AR is lower than that of beta(2)AR. The fusion protein of beta-arrestin 1 with glutathione S-transferase inhibits the beta(1)- and beta(2)AR-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activities, although inhibition of the beta(1)AR-stimulated activity requires a higher concentration of the fusion protein than that of the beta(2)AR-stimulated activity. These results suggest that weak interaction of beta(1)AR with beta-arrestins explains the resistance to agonist-induced internalization. This is further supported by the finding that beta-arrestin can induce internalization of beta(1)AR when beta-arrestin 1 does not dissociate from beta(1)AR by fusing to the carboxyl tail of beta(1)AR. 相似文献

Stimulation of DDT1 MF-2 vas deferens cells with epinephrine resulted in a time- and dose-dependent loss of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor-specific ligand binding. Regulation of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA was characterized. In monolayer culture, cells displayed 0.7 +/- 0.05 amol of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA/microgram of total cellular RNA. Epinephrine, which acts at both alpha 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors of DDT1 MF-2 cells, induced a short term (2-8 h) increase (50-70%) in the abundance of alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA. Propranolol, a beta 2-adrenergic receptor antagonist, attenuated the epinephrine-mediated increase in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA but did not affect the decrease in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor-specific ligand binding. Phentolamine, an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor antagonist, did not attenuate the epinephrine-mediated increase in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA at 4 h but did block the decrease in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor-specific ligand binding. The half-life of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA was approximately 7 h in untreated cells as well as in cells challenged with epinephrine. The epinephrine-promoted increase in alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA was found to result from cross-regulation via beta 2-adrenergic receptors. Cholera toxin, forskolin, as well as the cyclic AMP analog CPT cAMP (8-(4-chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate) increased the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor mRNA at 4 h, as did epinephrine in the presence of alpha 1-antagonists but not in the presence of a beta-adrenergic antagonist. This is the first report of heterologous up-regulation of mRNA levels of adrenergic receptors. Cross-regulation between alpha 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptor-mediated pathways at 4 h occurs at the level of mRNA whereas later down-regulation of alpha 1-receptor mRNA and binding proceed via agonist activation of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors. 相似文献

Beta-arrestins mediate agonist-dependent desensitization and internalization of G protein-coupled receptors. Previously, we have shown that phosphorylation of beta-arrestin1 by ERKs at Ser-412 regulates its association with clathrin and its function in promoting clathrin-mediated internalization of the receptor. In this paper we report that beta-arrestin2 is also phosphorylated, predominantly at residues Thr-383 and Ser-361. Isoproterenol stimulation of the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor promotes dephosphorylation of beta-arrestin2. Mutation of beta-arrestin2 phosphorylation sites to aspartic acid decreases the association of beta-arrestin2 with clathrin, thereby reducing its ability to promote internalization of the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor. Its ability to bind and desensitize the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor is, however, unaltered. These results suggest that, analogous to beta-arrestin1, phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of beta-arrestin2 regulates clathrin-mediated internalization of the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor. In contrast to beta-arrestin1, which is phosphorylated by ERK1 and ERK2, phosphorylation of beta-arrestin2 at Thr-383 is shown to be mediated by casein kinase II. Recently, it has been reported that phosphorylation of visual arrestin at Ser-366 prevents its binding to clathrin. Thus it appears that the function of all arrestin family members in mediating internalization of G protein-coupled receptors is regulated by distinct phosphorylation/dephosphorylation mechanisms. 相似文献

Beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenergic receptors (beta(1)AR and beta(2)AR) are co-expressed in numerous tissues where they play a central role in the responses of various organs to sympathetic stimulation. Although the two receptor subtypes share some signaling pathways, each has been shown to have specific signaling and regulatory properties. Given the recent recognition that many G protein-coupled receptors can form homo- and heterodimers, the present study was undertaken to determine whether the beta(1)AR and beta(2)AR can form dimers in cells and, if so, to investigate the potential functional consequences of such heterodimerization. Using co-immunoprecipitation and bioluminescence resonance energy transfer, we show that beta(1)AR and beta(2)AR can form heterodimers in HEK 293 cells co-expressing the two receptors. Functionally, beta-adrenergic stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity was found to be identical in cells expressing beta(1)AR, beta(2)AR, or both receptors at similar levels, indicating that heterodimerization did not affect this signaling pathway. When considering ERK1/2 MAPK activity, a significant agonist-promoted activation was detected in beta(2)AR- but not beta(1)AR-expressing cells. Similarly to what was observed in cells expressing the beta(1)AR alone, no beta-adrenergic stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation was observed in cells co-expressing the two receptors. A similar inhibition of agonist-promoted internalization of the beta(2)AR was observed upon co-expression of the beta(1)AR, which by itself internalized to a lesser extent. Taken together, our data suggest that heterodimerization between beta(1)AR and beta(2)AR inhibits the agonist-promoted internalization of the beta(2)AR and its ability to activate the ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathway. 相似文献

The beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)AR) is the most abundant subtype of beta-adrenergic receptor in the mammalian brain and is known to potently regulate synaptic plasticity. To search for potential neuronal beta(1)AR-interacting proteins, we screened a rat brain cDNA library using the beta(1)AR carboxyl terminus (beta(1)AR-CT) as bait in the yeast two-hybrid system. These screens identified PSD-95, a multiple PDZ domain-containing scaffolding protein, as a specific binding partner of the beta(1)AR-CT. This interaction was confirmed by in vitro fusion protein pull-down and blot overlay experiments, which demonstrated that the beta(1)AR-CT binds specifically to the third PDZ domain of PSD-95. Furthermore, the full-length beta(1)AR associates with PSD-95 in cells, as determined by co-immunoprecipitation experiments and immunofluorescence co-localization studies. The interaction between beta(1)AR and PSD-95 is mediated by the last few amino acids of the beta(1)AR, and mutation of the beta(1)AR carboxyl terminus eliminated the binding and disrupted the co-localization of the beta(1)AR and PSD-95 in cells. Agonist-induced internalization of the beta(1)AR in HEK-293 cells was markedly attenuated by PSD-95 co-expression, whereas co-expression of PSD-95 has no significant effect on either desensitization of the beta(1)AR or beta(1)AR-induced cAMP accumulation. Furthermore, PSD-95 facilitated the formation of a complex between the beta(1)AR and N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors, as assessed by co-immunoprecipitation. These data reveal that PSD-95 is a specific beta(1)AR binding partner that modulates beta(1)AR function and facilitates physical association of the beta(1)AR with synaptic proteins, such as the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors, which are known to be regulated by beta(1)AR stimulation. 相似文献

Rab22a is a member of the Rab family of small GTPases that localizes in the endocytic pathway. In CHO cells, expression of canine Rab22a (cRab22a) causes a dramatic enlargement of early endocytic compartments. We wondered whether transferrin recycling is altered in these cells. Expression of the wild-type protein and a GTP hydrolysis-deficient mutant led to the redistribution of transferrin receptor to large cRab22a-positive structures in the periphery of the cell and to a significant decrease in the plasma membrane receptor. Kinetic analysis of transferrin uptake indicates that internalization and early recycling were not affected by cRab22a expression. However, recycling from large cRab22a-positive compartments was strongly inhibited. A similar effect on transferrin transport was observed when human but not canine Rab22a was expressed in HeLa cells. After internalization for short periods of time (5 to 8 min) or at a reduced temperature (16 degrees C), transferrin localized with endogenous Rab22a in small vesicles that did not tubulate with brefeldin A, suggesting that the endogenous protein is present in early/sorting endosomes. Rab22a depletion by small interfering RNA disorganized the perinuclear recycling center and strongly inhibited transferrin recycling. We speculate that Rab22a controls the transport of the transferrin receptor from sorting to recycling endosomes. 相似文献

Growing HepG2 cells contain 50,000 functional surface transferrin-binding sites (Ciechanover, A., Schwartz, A.L., and Lodish, H.F. (1983) Cell 32,267-275) and 100,000 intracellular sites. At saturating concentrations of [59Fe]transferrin, and under conditions in which protein synthesis is blocked, iron uptake is linear for several hours at a rate of 9,500 transferrin molecules/cell/min. Thus, each receptor must recycle a ligand, on the average, each 15.8 min. Surface-bound transferrin is rapidly endocytosed (t1/2 = 3.5 min). All of the iron remains within the cell, while the apotransferrin is rapidly (t1/2 = 5.0 min) secreted into the medium. Previously, we showed (Dautry-Varsat, A., Ciechanover, A., and Lodish, H.F. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 2258-2262) that exposure of a ferrotransferrin-receptor complex to medium of pH less than 5.0 results in dissociation of iron, but that apotransferrin remains bound to its receptor. If the pH is raised to 7.0, such as would occur when an acidic intracellular vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane, apotransferrin is very rapidly dissociated (t1/2 = 17 s at 37 degrees C) from its receptor. Taken together, these results indicate that transferrin remains bound to its receptor throughout the endocytic cycle. In the present study, we have directly measured all the kinetic parameters involved in the transferrin receptor cycle. They are similar to those of the asialoglycoprotein receptor in the same cell line, and can be described by a simple kinetic model. In the presence of lysosomotropic agents, ferrotransferrin binds to its surface receptor and is internalized normally. However, iron is not dissociated from transferrin, and ferrotransferrin recycles back to the cell surface and is secreted into the medium. We conclude that the low pH in endocytic vesicles is essential for the dissociation of iron from transferrin and its delivery to the cell, but is not required for recycling of transferrin, and presumably of its receptor. 相似文献

Ras proteins regulate cell growth, death, and differentiation, and it is well established that this functional versatility is accomplished through their different subcellular localizations. Palmitoylated H- and N-Ras are believed to localize at the perinuclear Golgi and plasma membrane (PM). Notably, however, recycling endosomes (REs) also localize to a perinuclear region, which is often indistinguishable from the Golgi. In this study, we show that active palmitoylated Ras proteins mainly localize intracellularly at REs and that REs act as a way station along the post-Golgi exocytic pathway to the PM. H-Ras requires two palmitoyl groups for RE targeting. The lack of either or both palmitoyl groups leads to the mislocalization of the mutant proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, or the PM. Therefore, we demonstrate that palmitoylation directs Ras proteins to the correct intracellular organelles for trafficking and activity. 相似文献

Protein kinases play a pivotal role in the propagation and modulation of transmembrane signaling pathways. Two major classes of receptors, G-protein-linked and tyrosine kinase receptors not only propagate signals but also are substrates for phosphorylation in response to stimulation by agonist ligands. Insulin (operating via tyrosine kinase receptors) and catecholamines (operating by G-protein-linked receptors) are counterregulatory with respect to lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. How, on a cellular level, these two distinct classes of receptors may cross-regulate each other remains controversial. In the present work we identify a novel cross-talk between members of two distinct classes of receptors, tyrosine kinase (insulin) and G-protein-linked (beta-adrenergic) receptors. Treatment of DDT1 MF-2 hamster vas deferens smooth muscle cells with insulin promoted a marked attenuation (desensitization) of beta-adrenergic receptor-mediated activation of adenylylcyclase. Measured by immune precipitation of beta 2-adrenergic receptors from cells metabolically labeled with [32P]orthophosphate, the basal state of receptor phosphorylation was increased 2-fold by insulin. Phosphoamino acid analysis revealed that for insulin-stimulated cells, the beta 2-adrenergic receptors showed increased phosphorylation on tyrosyl and decreased phosphorylation on threonyl residues. Phosphorylation of the beta-adrenergic receptor was rapid and peaked at 30 min following stimulation of cells by insulin. beta-Adrenergic receptor phosphorylation and attenuation of catecholamine-sensitive adenylylcyclase provide a biochemical basis for the counterregulatory effects of insulin upon catecholamine action. 相似文献

Beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors, pharmacologically distinct proteins, have been reported to be structurally dissimilar. In the present study three techniques were employed to compare the nature of mammalian beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors. Antibodies against each of the receptor subtypes were raised separately. Polyclonal antisera against beta 1-receptors of rat fat cells were raised in mice, and antisera against beta 2-receptors of guinea pig lung were raised in rabbits. Receptors purified from rat fat cells (beta 1-), S49 mouse lymphoma cells (beta 2-), and rat liver (beta 2-) were probed with these antisera. Each anti-receptor antisera demonstrated the ability to immunoprecipitate purified receptors of both beta 1- and beta 2- subtypes. The mobility of beta-receptors subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was probed using antireceptor antibodies and nitrocellulose blots of the gels. Fat cell beta 1-adrenergic receptors display Mr = 67,000 under reducing conditions and Mr = 54,000 under nonreducing conditions, as previously reported (Moxham, C. P., and Malbon, C. C. (1985) Biochemistry 24, 6072-6077). Both beta 1- and beta 2-receptors displayed this same shift in electrophoretic mobility observed in the presence as compared to the absence of disulfide bridge-reducing agents, as detected both by autoradiography of the radiolabeled receptors and by immunoblotting of native receptors. Finally, isoelectric focusing of purified radioiodinated beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors revealed identical isoelectric points. These data are the first to provide analyses of immunological, structural, and biochemical features of beta 1- and beta 2-subtypes in tandem and underscore the structural similarities that exist between these pharmacologically distinct receptors. 相似文献

Lipids and other membrane constituents recycle between the plasma membrane and intracellular endocytic compartments. In CHO cells, approximately half of the internalized C(6)-NBD-SM, a fluorescent lipid analogue widely used as a membrane maker, recycles via the endocytic recycling compartment with a t(12) of approximately 12 min (Mayor, S., Presley, J. F., and Maxfield, F. R. (1993) J. Cell Biol. 121, 1257-1269). Surprisingly, the rest returns to the plasma membrane very quickly. A detailed kinetic study presented in this paper indicates that after a brief internalization pulse, 42-62% of the internalized C(6)-NBD-SM returns to the plasma membrane with a t(12) of 1-2 min. Similar results are obtained using HEp2 and nonpolarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Using FM dyes of different hydrophobicity, we show that rapid recycling involves passage through an endocytic organelle that was subsequently identified as the sorting endosome by co-localization with internalized transferrin and low density lipoprotein. These results imply that the membrane internalization rate is much higher than previously estimated, with a t(12) as short as 5-10 min. Rapid internalization and recycling would facilitate processes such as nutrient uptake and cholesterol efflux. 相似文献

Members of the Rab family of small GTPases play important roles in membrane trafficking along the exocytic and endocytic pathways. The Rab11 subfamily consists of two highly conserved members, Rab11a and Rab11b. Rab11a has been localized both to the pericentriolar recycling endosome and to the trans-Golgi network and functions in recycling of transferrin. However, the localization and function of Rab11b are completely unknown. In this study green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged Rab11b was used to determine its subcellular localization. GFP-Rab11b colocalized with internalized transferrin, and using different mutants of Rab11b, the role of this protein in transferrin uptake and recycling was examined. Two of these mutants, Rab11b-Q/L (constitutively active) and Rab11b-S/N (constitutively inactive), strongly inhibited the recycling of transferrin. Interestingly, both of them had no effect on transferrin uptake. In contrast, the C-terminally altered mutant Rab11b-DeltaC, which cannot be prenylated and therefore cannot interact with membranes, did not interfere with wild-type Rab11b function. From these data we concluded that functional Rab11b is essential for the transport of internalized transferrin from the recycling compartment to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) is a recently identified protein that mediates intestinal cholesterol absorption and regulates biliary cholesterol excretion. The itineraries and kinetics of NPC1L1 trafficking remain uncertain. In this study, we have visualized movement of NPC1L1-enhanced green fluorescent protein (NPC1L1-EGFP) and cholesterol analogs in hepatoma cells. At steady state, about 42% of NPC1L1 resided in the transferrin (Tf)-positive, sterol-enriched endocytic recycling compartment (ERC), whereas time-lapse microscopy demonstrated NPC1L1 traffic between the plasma membrane and the ERC. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching revealed rapid recovery (half-time approximately 2.5 min) of about 35% of NPC1L1 in the ERC, probably replenished from peripheral sorting endosomes. Acute cholesterol depletion blocked internalization of NPC1L1-EGFP and Tf and stimulated recycling of NPC1L1-EGFP from the ERC to the plasma membrane. NPC1L1-EGFP facilitated transport of fluorescent sterols from the plasma membrane to the ERC. Insulin induced translocation of vesicles containing NPC1L1 and fluorescent sterol from the ERC to the cell membrane. Upon polarization of hepatoma cells, NPC1L1 resided almost exclusively in the canalicular membrane, where the protein is highly mobile. Our study demonstrates dynamic trafficking of NPC1L1 between the cell surface and intracellular compartments and suggests that this transport is involved in NPC1L1-mediated cellular sterol uptake. 相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) eliminate infected and neoplastic cells through directed release of cytotoxic granule contents. Although multiple SNARE proteins have been implicated in cytotoxic granule exocytosis, the role of vesicular SNARE proteins, i.e., vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMPs), remains enigmatic. VAMP8 was posited to represent the cytotoxic granule vesicular SNARE protein mediating exocytosis in mice. In primary human CTLs, however, VAMP8 colocalized with Rab11a-positive recycling endosomes. Upon stimulation, these endosomes rapidly trafficked to and fused with the plasma membrane, preceding fusion of cytotoxic granules. Knockdown of VAMP8 blocked both recycling endosome and cytotoxic granule fusion at immune synapses, without affecting activating signaling. Mechanistically, VAMP8-dependent recycling endosomes deposited syntaxin-11 at immune synapses, facilitating assembly of plasma membrane SNARE complexes for cytotoxic granule fusion. Hence, cytotoxic granule exocytosis is a sequential, multivesicle fusion process requiring VAMP8-mediated recycling endosome fusion before cytotoxic granule fusion. Our findings imply that secretory granule exocytosis pathways in other cell types may also be more complex than previously appreciated. 相似文献

The recently cloned human beta-adrenergic cDNA and several mutated forms have been expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes by injection of RNA made from the cDNA under the control of the bacteriophage SP6 promoter. The cDNA and gene of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor possess the unusual feature of having a second upstream ATG (-101 base pairs) and a 19-codon open reading frame 5' to the initiator methionine codon of the receptor (Kobilka, B. K., Dixon, R. A. F., Frielle, T., Dohlman, H. G., Bolanowski, M., Sigal, I. S., Yang-Feng, T. L., Francke, U., Caron, M. G., and Lefkowitz, R. J. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 84, 46-50). RNA lacking this upstream AUG and open reading frame was translated approximately 10-fold more efficiently both in an in vitro rabbit reticulocyte system and in oocytes. Injected oocytes but not water injected controls expressed typical beta 2-adrenergic receptors as assessed by ligand binding (450 fmol/mg membrane protein) and catecholamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase (approximately 20 fold). Moreover, these receptors displayed typical agonist-induced homologous desensitization when oocytes were incubated with isoproterenol at room temperature for 3-24 h. Among a series of mutations, truncations of the membrane-anchored core of the receptor eliminated receptor binding and cyclase stimulating activity. In contrast, disruption of one of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation sites or removal of the serine/threonine-rich carboxyl terminus had little or no effect on these functions or on the extent of agonist-induced desensitization relative to that observed with native receptor. These studies validate the beta 2-adrenergic nature of the cloned human beta-adrenergic cDNA, document the utility of the Xenopus oocyte system for studying functional and regulatory properties of receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase, and suggest the possibility that elements in the 5' untranslated region of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor RNA may regulate its translation in vivo. 相似文献

The appearance and internalization of transferrin receptors at the margins of spreading human tumor cells 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
C R Hopkins 《Cell》1985,40(1):199-208
Using gold complexes stabilized with a monoclonal antibody specific for the human transferrin receptor, the distribution of transferrin receptors on the surfaces of human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells has been mapped at high resolution. On prefixed cells and cells incubated at 5 degrees C, the receptors are predominantly within and around clathrin-coated microdomains near the free cell margin. By preincubating the cells with saturating concentrations of free antibody at 5 degrees C and warming them to 37 degrees C in the presence of the gold complexes, the appearance of new receptors in the membrane has been followed. The majority first appear near the free cell margin and then move centripetally. At first, they are monodisperse, but as they move toward the site of internalization they form loose aggregates. Within the immediate vicinity of the clathrin-coated microdomains the migrating receptors form closely packed, ordered aggregates. These observations indicate recycling transferrin receptors move to their site of internalization without cross-linking. 相似文献

The type 3 iodothyronine selenodeiodinase (D3) is an integral membrane protein that inactivates thyroid hormones. By using immunofluorescence cytochemistry confocal microscopy of live or fixed cells transiently expressing FLAG-tagged human D3 or monkey hepatocarcinoma cells expressing endogenous D3, we identified D3 in the plasma membrane. It co-localizes with Na,K-ATPase alpha, with the early endosomal marker EEA-1 and clathrin, but not with two endoplasmic reticulum resident proteins. Most of the D3 molecule is extracellular and can be biotinylated with a cell-impermeant probe. There is constant internalization of D3 that is blocked by sucrose or methyl-beta-cyclodextrin-containing medium. Exposing cells to a weak base such as primaquine increases the pool of internalized D3, suggesting that D3 is recycled between plasma membrane and early endosomes. Such recycling could account for the much longer half-life of D3 (12 h) than the thyroxine activating members of the selenodeiodinase family, type 1 (D1; 8 h) or type 2 (D2; 2 h) deiodinase. The extracellular location of D3 gives ready access to circulating thyroid hormones, explaining its capacity for rapid inactivation of circulating thyroxine and triiodothyronine in patients with hemangiomas and its blockade of the access of maternal thyroid hormones to the human fetus. 相似文献

beta- and alpha(2)-adrenergic receptors are known to exhibit substantial cross-talk and mutual regulation in tissues where they are expressed together. We have found that the beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)AR) and alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptor (alpha(2A)AR) heterodimerize when coexpressed in cells. Immunoprecipitation studies with differentially tagged beta(1)AR and alpha(2A)AR expressed in HEK-293 cells revealed robust co-immunoprecipitation of the two receptors. Moreover, agonist stimulation of alpha(2A)AR was found to induce substantial internalization of coexpressed beta(1)AR, providing further evidence for a physical association between the two receptors in a cellular environment. Ligand binding assays examining displacement of [(3)H]dihydroalprenolol binding to the beta(1)AR by various ligands revealed that beta(1)AR pharmacological properties were significantly altered when the receptor was coexpressed with alpha(2A)AR. Finally, beta(1)AR/alpha(2A)AR heterodimerization was found to be markedly enhanced by a beta(1)AR point mutation (N15A) that blocks N-linked glycosylation of the beta(1)AR as well as by point mutations (N10A/N14A) that block N-linked glycosylation of the alpha(2A)AR. These data reveal an interaction between beta(1)AR and alpha(2A)AR that is regulated by glycosylation and that may play a key role in cross-talk and mutual regulation between these receptors. 相似文献

We have characterized a new CHO cell line (12-4) derived from a parental line, TRVb-1, that expresses the human transferrin receptor. This mutant belongs to the end2 complementation group of endocytosis mutants. Like other end2 mutants, the endosomes in 12-4 cells show a partial acidification defect. These cells internalize LDL and transferrin at 70% of the rate of parental cells and externalize transferrin at 55% of the parental rate (Johnson, L. S., J. F. Presley, J. C. Park, and T. E. McGraw. J. Cell Physiol. 1993). In this report, we have used fluorescence microscopy to determine which step in receptor trafficking is affected in the mutants. Transferrin is sorted from LDL and is delivered to a peri-centriolar recycling compartment at rates similar to parental cells. However, the rate constant for exit of transferrin from the recycling compartment in mutant cells is 0.025 min- 1 vs 0.062 min-1 in the parental line. We also measured the trafficking of a bulk membrane marker, 6-[N-[7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl]- amino]hexanoyl- sphingosylphosphorylcholine (C6-NBD-SM) that labels the exofacial side of the plasma membrane. C6-NBD-SM enters the same recycling compartment as transferrin, and it exits the recycling compartment at a rate of 0.060-0.065 min-1 in both parental and 12-4 cells. We conclude that bulk membrane flow in the recycling pathway of 12-4 cells is normal, but exit of transferrin from the recycling compartment is slowed due to retention in this compartment. Thus, in the mutant cell line the recycling compartment carries out a sorting function, retaining transferrin over bulk membrane. 相似文献
