CD1e is a membrane-associated protein predominantly detected in the Golgi compartments of immature human dendritic cells. Without transiting through the plasma membrane, it is targeted to lysosomes (Ls) where it remains as a cleaved and soluble form and participates in the processing of glycolipidic antigens. The role of the cytoplasmic tail of CD1e in the control of its intracellular pathway was studied. Experiments with chimeric molecules demonstrated that the cytoplasmic domain determines a cellular pathway that conditions the endosomal cleavage of these molecules. Other experiments showed that the C-terminal half of the cytoplasmic tail mediates the accumulation of CD1e in Golgi compartments. The cytoplasmic domain of CD1e undergoes monoubiquitinations, and its ubiquitination profile is maintained when its N- or C-terminal half is deleted. Replacement of the eight cytoplasmic lysines by arginines results in a marked accumulation of CD1e in trans Golgi network 46+ compartments, its expression on the plasma membrane and a moderate slowing of its transport to Ls. Fusion of this mutated form with ubiquitin abolishes the accumulation of CD1e molecules in the Golgi compartments and restores the kinetics of their transport to Ls. Thus, ubiquitination of CD1e appears to trigger its exit from Golgi compartments and its transport to endosomes. This ubiquitin-dependent pathway may explain several features of the very particular intracellular traffic of CD1e in dendritic cells compared with other CD1 molecules. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) present antigens to T cells via CD1, HLA class I or class II molecules. During maturation, HLA class II-restricted presentation is optimized. The relocalization of CD1e from Golgi to endosomal compartments during DC maturation suggests also an optimization of the antigen-presentation pathway via CD1 molecules. We here detail the biosynthesis and cellular pathway of CD1e in immature and maturing DCs. Unlike the other CD1 molecules, CD1e was found to reach late endosomes through sorting endosomes, without passing through the plasma membrane in either immature or maturing cells. After induction of DC maturation, CD1e disappeared rapidly from the Golgi and was transiently localized in HLA-DR+ vesicles, while the number of CD1e+/CD1b+ compartments increased for at least 20 h. High-resolution light microscopy showed that, in immature DCs, CD1e+ vesicles were often in close apposition to EEA1+ or HLA-DR+ compartments, while CD1e displayed a nearly exclusive distribution in the lysosomes of mature DCs, a finding corroborated by immunoelectron microscopy. During maturation, CD1e synthesis progressively declined, while the endosomal cleavage of CD1e still occurred. Thus, CD1e displays peculiar properties, suggesting an unexpected role among the family of CD1 antigen-presenting molecules. 相似文献

Regulation of intracellular trafficking of human CD1d by association with MHC class II molecules 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
CD1 family members are antigen-presenting molecules capable of presenting bacterial or synthetic glycolipids to T cells. Here we show that a subset of human CD1d molecules are associated with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules, both on the cell surface and in the late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where class II molecules transiently accumulate during transport. The interaction is initiated in the endoplasmic reticulum with class II-invariant chain complexes and appears to be maintained throughout the class II trafficking pathway. A truncated form of CD1d which lacks its cytoplasmic YXXZ internalization motif is transported to late endosomal/lysosomal compartments in the presence of class II molecules. Furthermore, the same CD1d deletion mutant is targeted to lysosomal compartments in HeLa cells expressing class II molecules and invariant chain by transfection. The deletion mutant was also found in lysosomal compartments in HeLa cells expressing only the p33 form of the invariant chain. These data suggest that the intracellular trafficking pathway of CD1d may be altered by class II molecules and invariant chain induced during inflammation. 相似文献

An emerging area of investigation is the role of lipids as immunological antigens. CD1 glycoproteins comprise a family of molecules that are specialized for presenting lipids, glycolipids and lipopeptides to T lymphocytes. Variations in the cytoplasmic tail sequences of CD1 isoforms lead to differential association with adaptor proteins and consequently divergent routes of intracellular trafficking, resulting in surveillance of distinct cellular sites for binding lipid antigens. CD1 molecules efficiently gain access to lipids from intracellular microbial pathogens in endosomal compartments, and the trafficking and lipid-binding specialization of CD1 isoforms may correlate with the endosomal segregation of structurally distinct lipids. Endosomal trafficking is also critical for CD1d molecules to load antigenic self-lipids that are presented to autoreactive CD1d-restricted natural killer (NK)T cells and is required for the positive selection of these unique T cells. Recent studies reveal a key role for accessory proteins that facilitate the uptake of lipid antigens by CD1 molecules. These include lysosomal lipid-transfer proteins, such as the saposins, and apolipoprotein E, the major serum factor that binds and delivers extracellular lipids to antigen-presenting cells. These advances in understanding the CD1 lipid antigen presentation system raise new considerations about the role of the immune response in lipid-related diseases. 相似文献

The CD1e protein participates in the presentation of lipid antigens in dendritic cells. Its transmembrane precursor is transported to lysosomes where it is cleaved into an active soluble form. In the presence of bafilomycin, which inhibits vacuolar ATPase and consequently the acidification of endosomal compartments, CD1e associates with a 27 kD protein. In this work, we identified this molecular partner as LAPTM5. The latter protein and CD1e colocalize in trans-Golgi and late endosomal compartments. The quantity of LAPTM5/CD1e complexes increases when the cells are treated with bafilomycin, probably due to the protection of LAPTM5 from lysosomal proteases. Moreover, we could demonstrate that LAPTM5/CD1e association occurs under physiological conditions. Although LAPTM5 was previously shown to act as a platform recruiting ubiquitin ligases and facilitating the transport of receptors to lysosomes, we found no evidence that LATPM5 controls either CD1e ubiquitination or the generation of soluble lysosomal CD1e proteins. Notwithstanding these last observations, the interaction of LAPTM5 with CD1e and their colocalization in antigen processing compartments both suggest that LAPTM5 might influence the role of CD1e in the presentation of lipid antigens. 相似文献

In humans, a family of five genes encodes the CD1 molecules. Four of these proteins, CD1a, b, c, and d, are expressed on the plasma membrane and traffic between the cell surface and endocytic compartments, where they are loaded with antigenic glycolipids. The existence of human CD1e was demonstrated recently. This molecule surprisingly remains inside the cell, accumulating mainly in the Golgi compartments of immature dendritic cells and in the late endosomes of mature dendritic cells. In the latter compartments, CD1e is cleaved and becomes soluble. To determine whether these properties were specific to human CD1e, we investigated the presence and characteristics of CD1e in the rhesus macaque, an evolutionarily distant species of the primate lineage. Our results show that the cellular and biochemical properties of the human and simian CD1e molecules are similar, suggesting that the particular intracellular distribution of CD1e is important for its physiological and/or immunological function. 相似文献

The plasma membrane proteins CD1a, CD1b and CD1c are expressed by human dendritic cells, the professional antigen-presenting cells of the immune system, and present lipid antigens to T lymphocytes. CD1e belongs to the same family of molecules, but accumulates as a membrane-associated form in the Golgi compartments of immature dendritic cells and as a soluble cleaved form in the lysosomes of mature dendritic cells. In lysosomes, the N-terminal propeptide of CD1e is also cleaved, but the functional consequences of this step are unknown. Here, we investigated how the pH changes encountered during transport to lysosomes affect the structure of CD1e and its ligand-binding properties. Circular dichroism studies demonstrated that the secondary and tertiary structures of recombinant CD1e were barely altered by pH changes. Nevertheless, at acidic pH, guanidium chloride-induced unfolding of CD1e molecules required lower concentrations of denaturing agent. The nonfunctional L194P allelic variant was found to be structurally less stable at acidic pH than the functional forms, providing an explanation for the lack of its detection in lysosomes. The number of water-exposed hydrophobic patches that bind 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonate was higher in acidic conditions, especially for the L194P variant. CD1e molecules interacted with lipid surfaces enriched in anionic lipids, such as bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate, a late endosomal/lysosomal lipid, especially at acidic pH, or when the propeptide was present. Altogether, these data indicate that, in the late endosomes/lysosomes of DCs, the acid pH promotes the binding of lipid antigens to CD1e through increased hydrophobic and ionic interactions. 相似文献

Newly synthesized class II molecules of the major histocompatibility complex must be transported to endosomal compartments where antigens are processed for presentation to class II-restricted T cells. The invariant chain (Ii), which assembles with newly synthesized class II alpha- and beta-chains in the endoplasmic reticulum, carries one or more targeting signals for transport to endosomal compartments where Ii dissociates from alpha beta Ii complexes. Here we show that the transport route of alpha beta Ii complexes is regulated selectively by two forms of Ii (p33 and p35) that are generated by the use of alternative translation initiation sites. Using a novel quantitative surface arrival assay based on labeling with [6-3H]-D-galactose combined with biochemical modification at the cell surface with neuraminidase, we demonstrate that newly synthesized alpha beta Ii molecules containing the Ii-p33 isoform can be detected on the cell surface shortly after passage through the Golgi apparatus/trans-Golgi network. A substantial amount of these alpha beta Ii complexes are targeted to early endosomes either directly from the trans-Golgi network or after internalization from the cell surface before their delivery to antigen processing compartments. The fraction of alpha beta Ii complexes containing the p35 isoform of Ii with a longer cytosolic domain was not detected at the cell surface as determined by iodination of intact cells and the lack of susceptibility to neuraminidase trimming on ice. However, treatment with neuraminidase at 37 degrees C did reveal that some of the alpha beta Ii-p35 complexes traversed early endosomes. These results demonstrate that a fraction of newly synthesized class II molecules arrive at the cell surface as alpha beta Ii complexes before delivery to antigen processing compartments and that class II alpha beta Ii complexes associated with the two isoforms of Ii are sorted to these compartments by different transport routes. 相似文献

CD1 molecules are a family of major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-related glycoproteins that present lipid and glycolipid antigens to T cells. Interestingly, it has been demonstrated that CD1d-restricted T cells have a pathogenic role in atherosclerosis. Recent studies suggest an association between the cellular machinery that loads CD1 molecules with glycolipids and several key proteins in lipid metabolism. These proteins include the sphingolipid activator proteins (SAPs), microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) and apolipoprotein E (apoE). MTP and SAPs seem to be crucial for loading CD1d with lipids in the endoplasmic reticulum and endosomal compartments, respectively, whereas apoE facilitates efficient uptake and delivery of exogenous lipid antigens to CD1d in endosomal compartments. These studies reveal new and unexpected relationships between lipid metabolism and antigen presentation by CD1 molecules. Targeting this pathway of immune activation might have therapeutic potential for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Cutting edge: a naturally occurring mutation in CD1e impairs lipid antigen presentation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The human CD1a-d proteins are plasma membrane molecules involved in the presentation of lipid Ags to T cells. In contrast, CD1e is an intracellular protein present in a soluble form in late endosomes or lysosomes and is essential for the processing of complex glycolipid Ags such as hexamannosylated phosphatidyl-myo-inositol, PIM(6). CD1e is formed by the association of beta(2)-microglobulin with an alpha-chain encoded by a polymorphic gene. We report here that one variant of CD1e with a proline at position 194, encoded by allele 4, does not assist PIM(6) presentation to CD1b-restricted specific T cells. The immunological incompetence of this CD1e variant is mainly due to inefficient assembly and poor transport of this molecule to late endosomal compartments. Although the allele 4 of CD1E is not frequent in the population, our findings suggest that homozygous individuals might display an altered immune response to complex glycolipid Ags. 相似文献

CD1 antigens are cell-surface glycoproteins which have a molecular structure which is similar (consisting of extracellular domains alpha 1, alpha 2, and alpha 3, a transmembrane portion, and a cytoplasmic tail) to that of class I MHC molecules. Phylogenetic analysis of mammalian CD1 DNA sequences revealed that these genes are more closely related to the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) than to the class II MHC and that mammalian genes are more closely related to avian class I MHC genes than they are to mammalian class I MHC genes. The CD1 genes form a multigene family with different numbers of genes in different species (five in human, eight in rabbit, and two in mouse). Known CD1 genes are grouped into the following three families, on the basis of evolutionary relationship: (1) the human HCD1B gene and a partial sequence from the domestic rabbit, (2) the human HCD1A and HCD1C genes, and (3) the human HCD1D and HCD1E genes plus the two mouse genes and a sequence from the cottontail rabbit. The alpha 1 and alpha 2 domains of CD1 are much less conserved at the amino acid level than are the corresponding domains of class I MHC molecules, but the alpha 3 domain of CD1 seems to be still more conserved than the well-conserved alpha 3 domain of class I MHC molecules. Furthermore, in the human CD1 gene family, interlocus exon exchange has homogenized alpha 3 domains of all CD1 genes except HCD1C. 相似文献

The Nef protein of HIV-1 removes the immune costimulatory proteins CD80 and CD86 from the cell surface by a unique clathrin- and dynamin-independent, actin-based endocytic pathway that deploys coupled activation of c-src and Rac. In this study, we show that, similar to major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCI), Nef subsequently reroutes CD80 and CD86 to the Golgi region. However, not only are CD80/CD86 internalized by a different mechanism from MHCI but also the vesicular pathway of Golgi delivery for CD80/CD86 is distinct from that employed for MHCI. While MHCI passes through early endosomal and sorting compartments marked by Rab5/early embryonic antigen 1 and ADP ribosylation factor 6, respectively, CD80 and CD86 enter endocytic vesicles that do not acquire conventional early endosomal markers but remain accessible to fluid probes. Rather than being delivered to preexisting Rab11-positive recycling compartments, these vesicles recruit Rab11 de novo. Rab11 activity is also necessary for the delivery of CD80/CD86 in these transitional vesicles to the Golgi region. These data reveal an unusual pathway of endocytic vesicular traffic to the Golgi and its recruitment in a viral immune evasion strategy. 相似文献

Distinct cytoplasmic sorting signals target integral membrane proteins to late endosomal compartments, but it is not known whether different signals direct targeting by different pathways. The availability of multiple pathways may permit some cell types to divert proteins to specialized compartments, such as the melanosome of pigmented cells. To address this issue, we characterized sorting determinants of tyrosinase, a tissue-specific resident protein of the melanosome. The cytoplasmic domain of tyrosinase was both necessary and sufficient for internalization and steady state localization to late endosomes and lysosomes in HeLa cells. Mutagenesis of two leucine residues within a conventional di-leucine motif ablated late endosomal localization. However, the properties of this di-leucine-based signal were distinguished from that of CD3gamma by overexpression studies; overexpression of the tyrosinase signal, but not the well characterized CD3gamma signal, induced a 4-fold enlargement of late endosomes and lysosomes and interfered with endosomal sorting mediated by both tyrosine- and other di-leucine-based signals. These properties suggest that the tyrosinase and CD3gamma di-leucine signals are distinctly recognized and sorted by distinct pathways to late endosomes in non-pigmented cells. We speculate that melanocytic cells utilize the second pathway to divert proteins to the melanosome. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DC) are potent APCs that sample Ags from the surrounding environment and present them to naive T cells using cell surface Ag-presenting molecules. The DC in both lymphoid and nonlymphoid tissues express high levels of CD1, a cell surface glycoprotein capable of presenting lipids and glycolipids to T cells. Distinct group 1 CD1 isoforms (CD1a, -b, -c) in man are known to traffic to different parts of the endocytic system where microbial Ags may be sampled. Guinea pigs are the only known rodent species that express the group 1 CD1 proteins. Therefore, we examined the expression and trafficking of guinea pig CD1 (gpCD1) isoforms on isolated DC. Confocal microscopy using mAbs specific for individual gpCD1 isoforms revealed differential trafficking of two distinct CD1b isoforms within DC. Colocalization of MHC class II was observed with the gpCD1b1 isoform, consistent with localization in the late endosomes of DC. In contrast, the gpCD1b3 isoform lacks an endosomal sorting motif and remains on the cell surface. Following incubation with Mycobacterium tuberculosis lipoarabinomannan, colocalization of endocytosed lipoarabinomannan with the gpCD1b1 isoform was observed but not with the gpCD1b3 isoform, which remained primarily on the cell surface. These data demonstrate that guinea pig DC express CD1 isoforms with unique trafficking patterns that recapitulate the patterns seen for human CD1 isoforms. This suggests evolutionary pressure for a conserved mechanism in mammals that allows CD1 to sample lipid Ags from various subcompartments of the endocytic system. 相似文献

Much effort is underway to define the immunological functions of the CD1 multigene family, which encodes a separate lineage of Ag presentation molecules capable of presenting lipid and glycolipid Ags. To identify porcine CD1 homologues, a cosmid library was constructed and screened with a degenerate CD1 alpha3 domain probe. One porcine CD1 gene (pCD1.1) was isolated and fully characterized. The pCD1.1 gene is organized similarly to MHC class I and other CD1 genes and contains an open reading frame of 1020 bp encoding 339 amino acids. Expression of pCD1.1 mRNA was observed in CD3- thymocytes, B lymphocytes, and tissue macrophages and dendritic cells. The pCD1.1 cDNA was transfected into Chinese hamster ovary cells, and subsequent FACS analysis demonstrated that mAb 76-7-4, previously suggested to be a pig CD1 mAb, recognizes cell surface pCD1.1. Structurally, the pCD1.1 alpha1 and alpha2 domains are relatively dissimilar to those of other CD1 molecules, whereas the alpha3 domain is conserved. Overall, pCD1.1 bears the highest similarity with human CD1a, and the ectodomain sequences characteristically encode a hydrophobic Ag-binding pocket. Distinct from other CD1 molecules, pCD1.1 contains a putative serine phosphorylation motif similar to that found in human, pig, and mouse MHC class Ia molecules and to that found in rodent, but not human, MHC class-I related (MR1) cytoplasmic tail sequences. Thus, pCD1.1 encodes a molecule with a conventional CD1 ectodomain and an MHC class I-like cytoplasmic tail. The unique features of pCD1.1 provoke intriguing questions about the immunologic functions of CD1 and the evolution of Ag presentation gene families. 相似文献

Intersection of group I CD1 molecules and mycobacteria in different intracellular compartments of dendritic cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Human CD1a, CD1b, and CD1c molecules can present mycobacterial glycolipids to T cells. Because phagosomes containing viable mycobacteria represent early endosomal compartments, we studied where mycobacterial glycolipids intersect with CD1 molecules in infected APC. CD1b and CD1c, but not CD1a, localized to late endosomes/lysosomes. CD1a and CD1c were predominantly expressed on the cell surface and in mycobacterial phagosomes of the early endosomal stage. In contrast, CD1b was present in a subset of mycobacterial phagosomes representing mature phagolysosomes. Released mycobacterial glycolipids including lipoarabinomannan and phosphatidylinositol mannosides were transported from the phagosome into late endosomes/lysosomes and to uninfected bystander cells. The macrophage mannose receptor, which has been implicated in glycolipid uptake by APC for CD1b-mediated presentation, was absent from mycobacterial phagosomes and may therefore not be involved in trafficking of glycolipids between phagosomes and late endosomes/lysosomes. In conclusion, all three CD1 molecules have access to mycobacteria and glycolipids thereof, but at different intracellular sites. This allows sampling by CD1a, CD1b, and CD1c of mycobacterial glycolipids from different intracellular sites of the infected cell, which has important implications for processing and presentation of such Ags during mycobacterial infections. 相似文献

We report that the cytoplasmic domains of the T-lymphocyte glycoproteins CD4 and CD8 alpha contain short related amino acid sequences that are involved in binding the amino-terminal domain of the intracellular tyrosine protein kinase, p56lck. Transfer of as few as six amino acid residues from the cytoplasmic domain of the CD8 alpha protein to the cytoplasmic domain of an unrelated protein conferred p56lck binding to the hybrid protein in HeLa cells. The common sequence motif shared by CD4 and CD8 alpha contains two cysteines, and mutation of either cysteine in the CD4 sequence eliminated binding of p56lck.p56lck also contains two cysteine residues within its CD4-CD8 alpha-binding domain, and both are critical to the interaction with CD4 or CD8 alpha. Because the interaction does not involve disulfide bond formation, a metal ion could stabilize the complex. 相似文献

Endotubin is an integral membrane protein that targets into apical endosomes in polarized epithelial cells. Although the role of cytoplasmic targeting signals as mediators of basolateral targeting and endocytosis is well established, it has been suggested that apical targeting requires either N-glycosylation of the ectoplasmic domains or partitioning of macromolecules into glycolipid-rich rafts. However, we have previously shown that the cytoplasmic portion of endotubin possesses signals that are necessary for its proper sorting into the apical early endosomes. To further define the targeting signals involved in this apically directed event, as well as to determine if the cytoplasmic domain was sufficient to mediate apical endosomal targeting, we generated a panel of endotubin and Tac-antigen chimeras and expressed them in Madin–Darby canine kidney cells. We show that both the apically targeting wild-type endotubin and a basolaterally targeted cytoplasmic domain mutant do not associate with rafts and are TX-100 soluble. The cytoplasmic tail of endotubin is sufficient for apical endosomal targeting, as chimeras with the endotubin cytoplasmic domain and Tac transmembrane and extracellular domains are efficiently targeted to the apical endosomal compartment. Furthermore, we show that overexpression of these chimeras results in their missorting to the basolateral membrane, indicating that the apical sorting process is a saturable event. These results show that cells contain machinery in both the biosynthetic and endosomal compartments that recognize cytoplasmic apical sorting signals. 相似文献

Signal transduction through the CD40 receptor is initiated by binding of its trimeric ligand and propagated by interactions of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) proteins with the multimerized CD40 cytoplasmic domain. Using defined multimeric constructs of the CD40 cytoplasmic domain expressed as either soluble or myristoylated proteins, we have addressed the extent of receptor multimerization needed to initiate signal transduction and identified components of CD40 signaling complexes. Signal transduction in human embryonic kidney 293 cells, measured by nuclear factor kappaB activation, was observed in cells expressing soluble trimeric CD40 cytoplasmic domain and to a lesser extent in cells expressing dimeric CD40 cytoplasmic domain. Nuclear factor kappaB activation was strongest in cells expressing myristoylated trimeric CD40 cytoplasmic domain. Signal transduction through trimeric CD40 cytoplasmic domains with various point mutations in the TRAF binding sites was similar to signal transduction through analogous full-length receptors. Transiently expressed soluble trimeric CD40 cytoplasmic domain was isolated as complexes that contained TRAF2, TRAF3, TRAF5, TRAF6, and the inhibitor of apoptosis protein (c-IAP1). Association of c-IAP1 with the CD40 cytoplasmic domain complex was indirect and dependent on the presence of an intact TRAF1/2/3 binding site. These results suggest that extracellular ligation of CD40 can be bypassed and that soluble trimerized CD40 complexes can be isolated and used to identify components that link CD40 with signaling pathways. 相似文献

Each of the human CD1 proteins takes a different route through secretory and endocytic compartments before finally arriving at the cell surface, where these proteins present glycolipid antigens to T cells. Recent studies have shown that adaptor-protein complexes and CD1-associated chaperones control not only CD1 trafficking, but also the development and activation of CD1-restricted T cells. This indicates that CD1 proteins, similar to MHC class I and II molecules, selectively acquire certain antigens in distinct cellular subcompartments. Here, we summarize evidence supporting the hypothesis that CD1 proteins use separate, but parallel, pathways to survey endosomal compartments differentially for lipid antigens. 相似文献
