Type XIV collagen, a fibril-associated collagen with interrupted triple helices (FACIT), interacts with the surrounding extracellular matrix and/or with cells via its binding to glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). To further characterize such interactions in the NC1 domain of chicken collagen XIV, we identified amino acids essential for heparin binding by affinity chromatography analysis after proteolytic digestion of the synthetic peptide NC1(84-116). The 3D structure of this peptide was then obtained using circular dichroism and NMR. The NC1(84-116) peptide appeared poorly structured in water, but the stabilization of its conformation by the interaction with hydrophobic surfaces or by using cosolvents (TFE, SDS) revealed a high propensity to adopt an alpha-helical folding. A 3D structure model of NC1(84-116), calculated from NMR data recorded in a TFE/water mixture, showed that the NC1-heparin binding site forms a amphipathic alpha-helix exhibiting a twisted basic groove. It is structurally similar to the consensus spatial alpha-helix model of heparin-binding [Margalit et al. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 19228-19231], except that the GAG binding domain of NC1 may be extended over 18 residues, that is, the NC1(94-111) segment. In addition, the formation of a hydrophobic groove upon helix formation suggests the contribution of additional sequences to ensure the stability of the GAG-binding domain. Overall the NC1(84-116) model exhibits a nativelike conformation which presents suitably oriented residues for the interaction with a specific GAG. 相似文献

Collagen XIV was isolated from neutral salt extracts of human placenta and purified by several chromatographic steps including affinity binding to heparin. The same procedures also led to the purification of a tissue form of fibronectin. Collagen XIV was demonstrated by partial sequence analysis of its Col1 and Col2 domains and by electron microscopy to be a disulphide-linked molecule with a characteristic cross-shape. The individual chains had a size of approximately 210 kD, which was reduced to approximately 180 kD (domain NC3) after treatment with bacterial collagenase. Specific antibodies mainly to NC3 epitopes were obtained by affinity chromatography and used in tissue and cell analyses by immunoblotting and radioimmunoassays. Two sequences from NC3 were identified on fragments obtained after trypsin cleavage. They were identical to cDNA-derived sequences of undulin, a noncollagenous extracellular matrix protein. This suggests that collagen XIV and undulin may be different splice variants from the same gene. Heparin binding was confirmed in ligand assays with a large basement membrane heparan sulphate proteoglycan. This binding could be inhibited by heparin and heparan sulphate but not by chondroitin sulphate. In addition, collagen XIV bound to the triple helical domain of collagen VI. The interactions with heparin sulphate proteoglycan and collagen VI were not shared by the NC3 domain, or by reduced and alkylated collagen XIV. No or only low binding was observed for collagens I-V, pN- collagens I and III, and several noncollagenous matrix proteins, including laminin, recombinant nidogen, BM-40/osteonectin, plasma and tissue fibronectin, vitronectin, and von Willebrand factor. Insignificant activity was also shown in cell attachment assays with nine established cell lines. 相似文献

A p120 catenin isoform switch affects Rho activity, induces tumor cell invasion, and predicts metastatic disease 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

p120 catenin is a cadherin-associated protein that regulates Rho GTPases and promotes the invasiveness of E-cadherin-deficient cancer cells. Multiple p120 isoforms are expressed in cells via alternative splicing, and all of them are essential for HGF signaling to Rac1. However, only full-length p120 (isoform 1) promotes invasiveness. This selective ability of p120 isoform 1 is mediated by reduced RhoA activity, both under basal conditions and following HGF treatment. All p120 isoforms can bind RhoA in vitro, via a central RhoA binding site. However, only the cooperative binding of RhoA to the central p120 domain and to the alternatively spliced p120 N terminus stabilizes RhoA binding and inhibits RhoA activity. Consistent with this, increased expression of p120 isoform 1, when compared with other p120 isoforms, is predictive of renal tumor micrometastasis and systemic progression, following nephrectomy. Furthermore, ectopic expression of the RhoA-binding, N-terminal domain of p120 is sufficient to block the ability of p120 isoform 1 to inhibit RhoA and to promote invasiveness. The data indicate that the increased expression of p120 isoform 1 during tumor progression contributes to the invasive phenotype of cadherin-deficient carcinomas and that the N-terminal domain of p120 is a valid therapeutic target. 相似文献

The binding of proteins to glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) is the prerequisite for a large number of cellular processes and regulatory events and is associated to many pathologies. However, progress in the understanding of these mechanisms has been hampered by the lack of simple and comprehensive analytical tools for the identification of the structural attributes involved in protein/saccharide interaction. Characterization of GAG binding motifs on proteins has so far relied on site-directed mutagenesis studies, protein sequence mapping using synthetic peptides, molecular modeling, or structural analysis. Here, we report the development of a novel approach for identifying protein residues involved in the binding to heparin, the archetypal member of the GAG family. This method, which uses native proteins, is based on the formation of cross-linked complexes of the protein of interest with heparin beads, the proteolytic digestion of these complexes, and the subsequent identification of the heparin binding containing peptides by N terminus sequencing. Analysis of the CC chemokine regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed, and secreted (RANTES), the envelope glycoprotein gC from pseudorabies virus and the laminin-5 alpha 3LG4/5 domain validated the techniques and provided novel information on the heparin binding motifs present within these proteins. Our results highlighted this method as a fast and valuable alternative to existing approaches. Application of this technique should greatly contribute to facilitate the structural study of protein/GAG interactions and the understanding of their biological functions. 相似文献

Collagen XIV, a fibril-associated collagen with interrupted triple helices, is expressed in differentiated soft connective tissues and in cartilage. However, a cellular receptor for this protein has not been identified. Here we show that human placental collagen XIV, isolated by a mild and simple two-step method, serves as adhesive protein for a variety of mesenchymal and some epithelial cells. Cell adhesion could be inhibited by preincubation of the collagen XIV substrate with heparin or with the chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan decorin and by pretreatment of cells with chondroitinase ABC or heparinase III, suggesting a cell membrane proteoglycan as receptor. Affinity chromatography of125I-labeled fibroblast cell surface proteins on collagen XIV–Sepharose yielded a chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan with a molecular mass of 97–105 kDa after chondroitinase ABC digestion and of 60–70 kDa after further treatment withN-glycosidase F. The eluates contained also some high-molecular-weight material that was susceptible to digestion with heparinase but no detectable integrins. Immunoprecipitation with a specific monoclonal antibody identified the prominent chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan as a member of the CD44 family. The interaction between collagen XIV and cells appears to be finely tuned, since matrix-associated glycosaminoglycans, and particularly proteoglycans like decorin, could compete with cells for the binding site(s) on collagen XIV under physiological conditions. 相似文献

Intersectin 1 (ITSN1) is a conserved adaptor protein implicated in endocytosis, regulation of actin cytoskeleton rearrangements and mitogenic signaling. Its expression is characterized by multiple alternative splicing. Here we show neuron-specific expression of ITSN1 isoforms containing exon 20, which encodes five amino acid residues in the first SH3 domain (SH3A). In vitro binding experiments demonstrated that inclusion of exon 20 changes the binding properties of the SH3A domain. Endocytic proteins dynamin 1 and synaptojanin 1 as well as GTPase-activating protein CdGAP bound the neuron-specific variant of the SH3A domain with higher affinity than ubiquitously expressed SH3A. In contrast, SOS1, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras, and the ubiquitin ligase Cbl mainly interact with the ubiquitously expressed isoform. These results demonstrate that alternative splicing leads to the formation of two pools of ITSN1 with potentially different properties in neurons, affecting ITSN1 function as adaptor protein. 相似文献

Follistatin (FS) regulates transforming growth factor-beta superfamily ligands and is necessary for normal embryonic and ovarian follicle development. Follistatin is expressed as two splice variants (FS288 and FS315). Previous studies indicated differences in heparin binding between FS288 and FS315, potentially influencing the physiological functions and locations of these isoforms. We have determined the structure of the FS315-activin A complex and quantitatively compared heparin binding by the two isoforms. The FS315 complex structure shows that both isoforms inhibit activin similarly, but FS315 exhibits movements within follistatin domain 3 (FSD3) apparently linked to binding of the C-terminal extension. Surprisingly, the binding affinities of FS288 and FS315 for heparin are similar at lower ionic strengths with FS315 binding decreasing more sharply as a function of salt concentration. When bound to activin, FS315 binds heparin similarly to the FS288 isoform, consistent with the structure of the complex, in which the acidic residues of the C-terminal extension cannot interact with the heparin-binding site. Activin-induced binding of heparin is unique to the FS315 isoform and may stimulate clearance of FS315 complexes. 相似文献

Synthetic scaffolds containing collagen (Type I) are of increasing interest for bone tissue engineering, especially for highly porous biomaterials in combination with glycosaminoglycans. In experiments the integration of heparin during the fibrillogenesis resulted in different types of collagen fibrils, but models for this aggregation on a molecular scale were only tentative. We conducted molecular dynamic simulations investigating the binding of heparin to collagen and the influence of the telopeptides during collagen aggregation. This aims at explaining experimental findings on a molecular level. Novel structures for N‐ and C‐telopeptides were developed with the TIGER2 replica exchange algorithm and dihedral principle component analysis. We present an extended statistical analysis of the mainly electrostatic interaction between heparin and collagen and identify several binding sites. Finally, we propose a molecular mechanism for the influence of glycosaminoglycans on the morphology of collagen fibrils. Proteins 2017; 85:1119–1130. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Fibrillin-1 assembly into microfibrils and elastic fiber formation involves interactions with glycosaminoglycans. We have used BIAcore technology to investigate fibrillin-1 interactions with heparin and with heparin saccharides that are analogous to S-domains of heparan sulfate. We have identified four high affinity heparin-binding sites on fibrillin-1, localized three of these sites, and defined their binding kinetics. Heparin binding to the fibrillin-1 N terminus has particularly rapid kinetics. Hyaluronan and chondroitin sulfate did not interact significantly with fibrillin-1. Heparin saccharides with more than 12 monosaccharide units bound strongly to all four fibrillin-1 sites. Heparin did not inhibit fibrillin-1 N- and C-terminal interactions or RGD-dependent cell attachment, but heparin and MAGP-1 competed for binding to the fibrillin-1 N terminus, and heparin and tropoelastin competed for binding to a central fibrillin-1 sequence. By regulating these key interactions, heparin can profoundly influence microfibril and elastic fiber assembly. 相似文献

Fragile X syndrome, the most prevalent inheritable mental retardation, is caused by the loss of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) expression. FMRP is an RNA-binding protein with nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttle activity, proposed to act as a translation regulator of specific mRNAs in the brain. It has been shown that FMRP uses its arginine-glycine-glycine (RGG) box domain to bind a subset of mRNA targets that form a G-quadruplex structure. FMRP has also been shown to undergo the post-translational modifications of arginine methylation and phosphorylation, as well as alternative splicing, resulting in multiple isoforms. The alternative splice isoforms investigated in this study, isoform 1 (ISO1), isoform 2 (ISO2), and isoform 3 (ISO3), are created by the alternative splicing acceptor site at exon 15. FMRP ISO2 and ISO3 are truncated by 12 and 13 residues, respectively, relative to the longest FMRP isoform ISO1. These truncations, which are in the close proximity of the RGG box domain, preserve the integrity of the RGG box in all three isoforms, but eliminate the in vivo phosphorylation sites, present only on FMRP ISO1. We have expressed and purified recombinant FMRP ISO1, ISO2 and ISO3 in Escherichia coli, free of post-translational modifications, and by using fluorescence spectroscopy, we show that each FMRP isoform binds G-quadruplex RNA, albeit with different binding affinities, suggesting that naturally occurring sequence modifications in the proximity of the RGG box modulate its G-quadruplex RNA binding ability. 相似文献

Collagen XVIII is characterized by three variant N termini, an interrupted collagenous domain, and a C-terminal antiangiogenic domain known as endostatin. We studied here the roles of this collagen type and its variant isoforms in the mouse kidney. Collagen XVIII appeared to be in a polarized orientation in the tubular basement membranes (BMs), the endostatin domain embedded in the BM, and the N terminus residing at the BM-fibrillar matrix interface. In the case of the glomerular BM (GBM), collagen XVIII was expressed in different isoforms depending on the side of the GBM. The orientation appeared polarized here, too, both the endothelial promoter 1-derived short variant of collagen XVIII and the epithelial promoter 2-derived longer variants having their C-terminal endostatin domains embedded in the BM and the N termini at the respective BM-cell interfaces. In addition to loosening of the proximal tubular BM structure, the Col18a1(-/-) mice showed effacement of the glomerular podocyte foot processes, and microindentation studies showed changes in the mechanical properties of the glomeruli, the Col18a1(-/-) glomeruli being ~30% softer than the wild-type. Analysis of promoter-specific knockouts (Col18a1(P1/P1) and Col18a1(P2/P2)) indicated that tubular BM loosening is due to a lack of the shortest isoform, whereas the glomerular podocyte effacement was due to a lack of the longer isoforms. We suggest that lack of collagen XVIII may also have disparate effects on kidney function in man, but considering the mild physiological findings in the mutant mice, such effects may manifest themselves only late in life or require other compounding molecular changes. 相似文献

Cell adhesion to collagen XIV is implied to be mediated by proteoglycans as cellular receptors (T. Ehniset al.,1996,Exp. Cell Res.229, 388–397). In order to define the cell binding region(s), fusion proteins expressed inEscherichia coliand covering the large noncollagenous domain NC3 of collagen XIV were used as substrates for the adhesion of skin fibroblasts. A prominent cell binding site could be localized in the N-terminal fibronectin type III repeat of collagen XIV and its immediate C-terminal extension. Since this region also mediates the binding of the small chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan decorin (T. Ehniset al.,1997,J. Biol. Chem.272, 20414–20419), our finding could provide the molecular basis for the observation that decorin serves as inhibitor and potential modulator of cellular interactions with collagen XIV. 相似文献

The interaction of lactoferrin with endogenous heparin-like molecules modulates glycosaminoglycan-mediated biological processes. We performed site-specific mutagenesis and expressed recombinant lactoferrin and lactoferrin mutants by the baculovirus insect cell expression system. Five basic residues at the lactoferrin N terminus; Arg 5, Arg 25, Arg 28, Lys 29, and Arg 31, were individually replaced by alanines. Heparin chromatography on fast-performance liquid chromatography system showed that the NaCl concentrations corresponding to the peak of each eluted recombinant protein from the column were 665, 620, 540, 550, 630, or 650 mM for wild-type recombinant lactoferrin, Arg 5, Arg 25, Arg 28, Lys 29, or Arg 31 recombinant lactoferrin mutant, respectively. We compared the ability of each mutated lactoferrin derivative to neutralize glycosaminoglycans in the thrombin serpin inhibition assays. In comparison to wild-type recombinant lactoferrin, all the mutants showed decreased ability to neutralize glycosaminoglycan in a dose-dependent manner. The mutations of lactoferrin at Arg 25 and Arg 28 demonstrated the most striking decrease in lactoferrin's ability to neutralize various glycosaminoglycans in both enzymatic and plasma clotting-based experiments. Therefore, our results suggest that Arg 25 and Arg 28 are the critical basic residues at the lactoferrin N terminus responsible for heparin binding. The other basic residues on the N terminus, Arg 5, Lys 29, and Arg 31, also contribute to heparin binding by presenting an additional cationic motif. 相似文献

We report on the molecular cloning of a novel human cDNA by its interaction with the splicing factor SRp30c in a yeast two-hybrid screen. This cDNA is predominantly expressed in muscle and encodes a protein that is present in the nucleoplasm and concentrated in nucleoli. It was therefore termed Nop30 (nucleolar protein of 30 kDa). We have also identified a related cDNA with a different carboxyl terminus. Sequencing of the NOP gene demonstrated that both cDNAs are generated by alternative 5' splice site usage from a single gene that consists of four exons, spans at least 1800 nucleotides, and is located on chromosome 16q21-q23. The alternative 5' splice site usage introduces a frameshift creating two different carboxyl termini. The carboxyl terminus of Nop30 is rich in serines and arginines and has been found to target the protein into the nucleus, whereas its isoform is characterized by proline/glutamic acid dipeptides in its carboxyl terminus and is predominantly found in the cytosol. Interaction studies in yeast, in vitro protein interaction assays, and co-immunoprecipitations demonstrated that Nop30 multimerizes and binds to the RS domain of SRp30c but not to other splicing factors tested. Overexpression of Nop30 changes alternative exon usage in preprotachykinin and SRp20 reporter genes, suggesting that Nop30 influences alternative splice site selection in vivo. 相似文献

hnRNP A1 is a pre-mRNA binding protein that antagonizes the alternative splicing activity of splicing factors SF2/ASF or SC35, causing activation of distal 5' splice sites. The structural requirements for hnRNP A1 function were determined by mutagenesis of recombinant human hnRNP A1. Two conserved Phe residues in the RNP-1 submotif of each of two RNA recognition motifs appear to be involved in specific RNA-protein interactions and are essential for modulating alternative splicing. These residues are not required for general pre-mRNA binding or RNA annealing activity. The C-terminal Gly-rich domain is necessary for alternative splicing activity, for stable RNA binding and for optimal RNA annealing activity. hnRNP A1B, which is an alternatively spliced isoform of hnRNP A1 with a longer Gly-rich domain, binds more strongly to pre-mRNA but has only limited alternative splicing activity. In contrast, hnRNP A2 and B1, which have 68% amino acid identity with hnRNP A1, bind more weakly to pre-mRNA and have stronger splice site switching activities than hnRNP A1. We propose that specific combinations of antagonistic hnRNP A/B and SR proteins are involved in regulating alternative splicing of distinct subsets of cellular premRNAs. 相似文献
