Some plasma membrane receptors in yeast are known to be internalized and degraded in lysosomes upon ligand-dependent ubiquitination. However, the role of ubiquitination in endocytosis and lysosomal degradation in higher eukaryotes has been controversial. In order to directly assess this question, we investigated the fate of chimeric molecules in which ubiquitin moiety was fused in-frame to the cytoplasmic region of membrane proteins. The chimeric proteins with the wild-type ubiquitin were endocytosed and delivered to lysosomes efficiently. Mutant ubiquitin with lysine-to-arginine substitution could still mediate endocytosis, suggesting that polyubiquitination is not required for the endocytosis. We next searched for the existence of an endocytosis signal(s) in the ubiquitin moiety, and identified a di-leucine signal, Leu(43)-Ile(44). The Leu(43)-Ile(44) sequence mediated endocytosis and lysosomal sorting in a Leu(43)-dependent manner. These results suggest that the di-leucine signal in ubiquitin can be involved in ubiquitination-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal targeting of membrane proteins. 相似文献

β-Site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme (BACE1) is a membrane-tethered member of the aspartyl proteases that has been identified as β-secretase. BACE1 is targeted through the secretory pathway to the plasma membrane and then is internalized to endosomes. Sorting of membrane proteins to the endosomes and lysosomes is regulated by the interaction of signals present in their carboxyl-terminal fragment with specific trafficking molecules. The BACE1 carboxyl-terminal fragment contains a di-leucine sorting signal (495DDISLL500) and a ubiquitination site at Lys-501. Here, we report that lack of ubiquitination at Lys-501 (BACE1K501R) does not affect the rate of endocytosis but produces BACE1 stabilization and accumulation of BACE1 in early and late endosomes/lysosomes as well as at the cell membrane. In contrast, the disruption of the di-leucine motif (BACE1LLAA) greatly impairs BACE1 endocytosis and produces a delayed retrograde transport of BACE1 to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and a delayed delivery of BACE1 to the lysosomes, thus decreasing its degradation. Moreover, the combination of the lack of ubiquitination at Lys-501 and the disruption of the di-leucine motif (BACE1LLAA/KR) produces additive effects on BACE1 stabilization and defective internalization. Finally, BACE1LLAA/KR accumulates in the TGN, while its levels are decreased in EEA1-positive compartments indicating that both ubiquitination at Lys-501 and the di-leucine motif are necessary for the trafficking of BACE1 from the TGN to early endosomes. Our studies have elucidated a differential role for the di-leucine motif and ubiquitination at Lys-501 in BACE1 endocytosis, trafficking, and degradation and suggest the involvement of multiple adaptor molecules. 相似文献

Targeting of transmembrane proteins to lysosomes, endosomal compartments, or the trans-Golgi network is largely dependent upon cytoplasmically exposed sorting signals. Among the most widely used signals are those that conform to the tyrosine-based motif, YXXO (where Y is tyrosine, X is any amino acid, and O is an amino acid with a bulky hydrophobic group), and to the di-leucine (or LL) motif. Signals conforming to both motifs have been implicated in protein localization to similar post-Golgi compartments. We have exploited the saturability of sorting to ask whether different YXXO or LL signals use shared components of the targeting machinery. Chimeric proteins containing various cytoplasmic domains and/or targeting signals were overexpressed in HeLa cells by transient transfection. Endogenous transferrin receptor and lysosomal proteins accumulated at the cell surface upon overexpression of chimeric proteins containing functional YXXO targeting signals, regardless of the compartmental destination imparted by the signal. Furthermore, overexpression of these chimeric proteins compromised YXXO-mediated endocytosis and lysosomal delivery. These activities were ablated by mutating the signals or by appending sequences that conformed to the YXXO motif but lacked targeting activity. Interestingly, overexpression of chimeric proteins containing cytoplasmic LL signals failed to induce surface displacement of endogenous YXXO-containing proteins, but did displace other proteins containing LL motifs. Our data demonstrate that: (a) Protein targeting and internalization mediated by either YXXO or LL motifs are saturable processes; (b) common saturable components are used in YXXO-mediated protein internalization and targeting to different post-Golgi compartments; and (c) YXXO- and LL-mediated targeting mechanisms use distinct saturable components. 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

An important function of the low affinity IgG Fc receptor FcRII-B2 (FcR) on macrophages is the internalization of soluble antigen-antibody complexes for lysosomal degradation. Most endocytic receptors possess tyrosine-containing cytoplasmic determinants required for endocytosis. In many proteins, signals which overlap with the endocytosis determinant and share the same critical tyrosine residue also mediate basolateral sorting in the trans-Golgi network of epithelial cells. Despite the presence of two tyrosine residues in the FcR cytosolic domain, neither one is absolutely required for coated pit localization or basolateral targeting. Nevertheless, a short domain of 13 residues containing one of the non-critical tyrosine residues mediates endocytosis and basolateral delivery. Alanine scan mutagenesis of this region now revealed a critical role of a leucine-leucine motif in both events. These findings suggest that endocytosis and basolateral sorting can be mediated by both tyrosine- and di-leucine-based signals and confirm the close relationship between the two determinants already observed for 'classical' tyrosine-dependent motifs. 相似文献

To analyze the interaction of sorting signals with clathrin-associated adaptor complexes, we developed an in vitro assay based on surface plasmon resonance analysis. This method monitors the binding of purified adaptors to immobilized oligopeptides in real time and determines binding kinetics and affinities. A peptide corresponding to the cytoplasmic domain of wild-type influenza hemagglutinin, an apical membrane protein that is not endocytosed, did not significantly bind adaptor complexes. However, peptide sequences containing a tyrosine residue that has previously been shown to induce endocytosis and basolateral sorting were specifically recognized by adaptor complexes. The in vitro rates of adaptor association with these peptides correlated with the internalization rates of the corresponding hemagglutinin variants in vivo. Binding was observed both for purified AP-2 adaptors of the plasma membrane and for AP-1 adaptors of the Golgi, with similar apparent equilibrium dissociation constants in the range 10(-7)-10(-6) M. Adaptor binding was also demonstrated for a sequence containing a C-terminal di-leucine sequence, the second major motif of endocytosis/basolateral sorting signals. These results confirm the concept that interaction of cytoplasmic signals with plasma membrane adaptors determines the endocytosis rate of membrane proteins, and suggest the model that clathrin-coated vesicles of the trans-Golgi network are involved in basolateral sorting. 相似文献

Membrane proteins often contain a sorting signal in their cytoplasmic tail that promotes their clustering into coated vesicles at a specific cellular site. ERGIC-53 contains a cytoplasmic ER-retrieval signal, KKFF. However, overexpressed ERGIC-53 is transported to the cell surface and rapidly endocytosed. Here we report that ERGIC-53 carries a previously undescribed endocytosis signal. Surprisingly, the signal was KKFF and like the ER-retrieval signal required a C-terminal position. In fact, the minimal consensus sequence determined by substitutional mutagenesis (K-K/R-F/Y-F/Y) was related to the ER-retrieval consensus (K-K-X-X). Furthermore, we provide evidence that internalization of VIP36, a protein that cycles between plasma membrane and Golgi, is mediated by a signal at its C-terminus that matches the internalization consensus sequence. The relatedness of the two signals suggests that coatomer-mediated retrieval of proteins may be mechanistically more related to clathrin-dependent sorting than previously anticipated. 相似文献

Sialidase (neuraminidase), encoded by the neu-1 gene in the major histocompatibility complex locus catalyzes the intralysosomal degradation of sialylated glycoconjugates. Inherited deficiency of sialidase results in sialidosis or galactosialidosis, both severe metabolic disorders associated with lysosomal storage of oligosaccharides and glycopeptides. Sialidase also plays an important role in cellular signaling and is specifically required for the production of cytokine interleukin-4 by activated T lymphocytes. In these cells, neu-1-encoded sialidase activity is increased on the cell surface, suggesting that a specific mechanism regulates sorting of this enzyme to the plasma membrane. We investigated that mechanism by first showing that sialidase contains the internalization signal found in lysosomal membrane proteins targeted to endosomes via clathrin-coated pits. The signal consists of a C-terminal tetrapeptide (412)YGTL(415), with Tyr(412) and Leu(415) essential for endocytosis of the enzyme. We further demonstrated that redistribution of sialidase from lysosomes to the cell surface of activated lymphocytes is accompanied by increased reactivity of the enzyme with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. We speculate that phosphorylation of Tyr(412) results in inhibition of sialidase internalization in activated lymphocytes. 相似文献

The YXXL motif, but not the two NPXY motifs, serves as the dominant endocytosis signal for low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

All members of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor family contain at least one copy of the NPXY sequence within their cytoplasmic tails. For the LDL receptor, it has been demonstrated that the NPXY motif serves as a signal for rapid endocytosis through coated pits. Thus, it is generally believed that the NPXY sequences function as endocytosis signals for all the LDL receptor family members. The primary aim of this study is to define the endocytosis signal(s) within the cytoplasmic tail of LDL receptor-related protein (LRP). By using LRP minireceptors, which mimic the function and trafficking of full-length endogenous LRP, we demonstrate that the YXXL motif, but not the two NPXY motifs, serves as the dominant signal for LRP endocytosis. We also found that the distal di-leucine motif within the LRP tail contributes to its endocytosis, and its function is independent of the YXXL motif. Although the proximal NPXY motif and the proximal di-leucine motif each play a limited role in LRP endocytosis in the context of the full-length tail, these motifs were functional within the truncated receptor tail. In addition, we show that LRP minireceptor mutants defective in endocytosis signal(s) accumulate at the cell surface and are less efficient in delivery of ligand for degradation. 相似文献

Diversion of membrane proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) or the plasma membrane into the endosomal system occurs via clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). These sorting events may require the interaction of cytosolic domain signals with clathrin adaptor proteins (APs) at the TGN (AP-1) or the plasma membrane (AP-2). While tyrosine- and di-leucine-based signals in several proteins mediate endocytosis via cell surface CCVs, segregation into Golgi-derived CCVs has so far only been documented for the mannose 6-phosphate receptors, where it is thought to require a casein kinase II phosphorylation site adjacent to a di-leucine motif. Although recently tyrosine-based signals have also been shown to interact with the mu chain of AP-1 in vitro, it is not clear if these signals also bind intact AP-1 adaptors, nor if they can mediate sorting of proteins into AP-1 CCVs. Here we show that the cytosolic domain of the lysosomal membrane glycoprotein lamp-1 binds AP-1 and AP-2. Furthermore, lamp-1 is present in AP-1-positive vesicles and tubules in the trans-region on the Golgi complex. AP-1 binding as well as localization to AP-1 CCVs require the presence of the functional tyrosine-based lysosomal targeting signal of lamp-1. These results indicate that lamp-1 can exit the TGN in CCVs and that tyrosine signals can mediate these sorting events. 相似文献

The localization and density of Kir2.3 channels are influenced by the balance between PDZ protein interaction at the cell surface and routing into the endocytic pathway. Here, we explore mechanisms by which the Kir2.3 channel is directed into the endocytic pathway. We found that Kir2.3 channels are constitutively internalized from the cell surface in a dynamin-dependent manner, indicative of vesicle-mediated endocytosis. The rate of Kir2.3 endocytosis was dramatically attenuated following RNA interference-mediated knockdown of either alpha adaptin (AP-2 clathrin adaptor) or clathrin heavy chain, revealing that Kir2.3 is internalized by an AP-2 clathrin-dependent mechanism. Structure-rationalized mutagenesis studies of a number of different potential AP-2 interaction motifs indicate that internalization of Kir2.3 is largely dependent on a non-canonical di-isoleucine motif (II413) embedded within the C terminus. Internalization assays using CD4-Kir2.3 chimeras demonstrate that the di-isoleucine signal acts in an autonomous and transplantable manner. Kir2.3 co-immunoprecipitates with alpha adaptin, and disruption of the di-isoleucine motif decreased interaction of the channel with AP-2. Replacement of the di-isoleucine motif with a canonical di-leucine internalization signal actually blocked Kir2.3 endocytosis. Moreover, in yeast three-hybrid studies, the Kir2.3 di-isoleucine motif does not bind the AP-2 alphaC-sigma2 hemicomplex in the way that has been recently observed for canonical di-leucine signals. Altogether, the results indicate that Kir2.3 channels are marked for clathrin-dependent internalization from the plasma membrane by a novel AP-2-dependent signal. 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

The glutamate transporter excitatory amino acid carrier (EAAC1/EAAT3) mediates the absorption of dicarboxylic amino acids in epithelial cells as well as the uptake of glutamate from the synaptic cleft. Its cell‐surface density is regulated by interaction with accessory proteins which remain to be identified. We detected a consensus sequence for interaction with post‐synaptic density‐95/Discs large/Zonula occludens (PDZ) proteins (‐SQF) and a tyrosine‐based internalization signal (‐YVNG‐) in the C‐terminus of EAAC1, and investigated their role in the transporter localization. We demonstrated that PDZ interactions are required for the efficient delivery to and the retention in the plasma membrane of EAAC1 and we identified PDZK1/NHERF3 (Na+/H+‐exchanger regulatory factor 3) as a novel EAAC1 interacting protein. Expression of PDZK1 in Madin‐Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells tethered EAAC1 to filopodia and increased its surface activity. Removal of the PDZ‐target motif promoted the EAAC1 binding to α‐adaptin and clathrin and the transporter internalization in endocytic/degradative compartments. This defect was largely prevented by hypertonic treatment or overexpression of the dominant‐negative µ2‐W421A‐subunit of AP‐2 clathrin‐adaptor. The rate of transporter endocytosis was attenuated following tyrosine mutagenesis in the internalization signal, thus indicating that this motif can regulate the transporter endocytosis. We suggest that EAAC1 density is controlled by balanced interactions with PDZK1 and adaptor protein 2 (AP2): the former promotes the transporter expression at the cell surface, and the latter mediates its constitutive endocytosis. 相似文献

Membrane cofactor protein (MCP), a widely distributed complement regulatory protein, is expressed on the basolateral surface of polarized epithelial cells, and it is not endocytosed. The carboxyl-terminal tetrapeptide (FTSL) is required for polarized surface expression. The ability of this tetrapeptide to serve as an autonomous sorting signal has been analyzed by adding this sequence motif to the C terminus of an apical membrane protein, the influenza A virus hemagglutinin (HA). The recombinant protein HA-FTSL retained the apical localization of the parental HA protein. Substitution of the complete cytoplasmic tail of MCP for the cytoplasmic tail of HA resulted in the targeting of the chimeric protein (HA/MCP) to the basolateral surface suggesting that the carboxyl-terminal FTSL motif is a weak sorting signal that requires additional targeting information from the membrane-proximal part of the cytoplasmic tail of MCP for redirecting an apical protein to the basolateral membrane domain. In contrast to the native HA, the HA-FTSL protein was subject to endocytosis. The basolateral HA/MCP was also found to be internalized and thus differed from the basolateral MCP. This result suggests that the carboxyl-terminal FTSL motif serves as an internalization signal and that in native MCP sorting information outside the cytoplasmic tail counteracts this endocytosis signal. Substitution of a tyrosine for the phenylalanine dramatically increased the internalization with most of the HA-YTSL protein being present intracellularly. Our results are consistent with the view that the interplay of multiple sorting signals and the modification of a well known targeting signal (YTSL) by amino acid exchange (FTSL) determine the constitutive expression of MCP on the basolateral surface of polarized epithelial cells. 相似文献

Ubiquitination functions as a sorting signal for lysosomal degradation of cell-surface proteins by facilitating their internalization from the plasma membrane and incorporation into lumenal vesicles of multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Ubiquitin may also mediate sorting of proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the endosome, thereby preventing their appearance on the cell surface and hastening their degradation in the lysosome-vacuole. Substantiation of a direct ubiquitin-dependent TGN sorting pathway relies in part on identifying candidate machinery that may function as a ubiquitin-sorting 'receptor'at the TGN. Members of the GGA family of coat proteins localize to the TGN and promote the incorporation of proteins into clathrin-coated vesicles destined for transport to endosomes. We show that the GGA coat proteins bind directly to ubiquitin through their GAT domain and demonstrate that this interaction is required for the ubiquitin-dependent sorting of the Gap1 amino acid transporter from the TGN to endosomes. Thus, GGA proteins fulfill the role of ubiquitin sorting receptors at the TGN. 相似文献

Proteoglycan receptor binding by Neisseria gonorrhoeae MS11 is determined by the HV-1 region of OpaA
The interaction of the OpaA protein of Neisseria gonorrhoeae MS11mk with heparan sulphate-containing proteoglycan receptors on Chang conjunctiva epithelial cells was examined using isolated receptor binding and cell adherence/internalization assays. OpaA deletion proteins, in which the four surface-exposed regions of the protein were deleted individually, and chimeric OpaA/B proteins, in which the surface-exposed regions of the OpaA and OpaB proteins were exchanged, were expressed in N. gonorrhoeae. The recombinant deletion proteins and the chimeric OpaA/B proteins were surface exposed in the outer membrane of N. gonorrhoeae. Isolated receptor-binding assays and Chang cell infection assays with OpaA deletion variants indicated that hypervariable region 1 was essential for the interaction of N. gonorrhoeae with the proteoglycan receptor. Expression of chimeric OpaA/B proteins confirmed the central role of hypervariable region 1 in receptor binding and demonstrated that this domain alone confers the invasive biological phenotype in a non-heparan sulphate proteoglycan-binding Opa protein. The other variable regions of OpaA enhanced receptor binding in the presence of region 1, but did not constitute binding domains on their own. The results indicate that proteoglycan receptor binding results from a hierarchical interaction between the variable domains of the OpaA protein of MS11mk. 相似文献

Mutations in the mucolipin-1 gene have been linked to mucolipidosis type IV, a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by severe neurological and ophthalmologic abnormalities. Mucolipin-1 is a membrane protein containing six putative transmembrane domains with both its N- and C-termini localized facing the cytosol. To gain information on the sorting motifs that mediate the trafficking of this protein to lysosomes, we have generated chimeras in which the N- and C- terminal tail portions of mucolipin-1 were fused to a reporter gene. In this article, we report the identification of two separate di-leucine-type motifs that co-operate to regulate the transport of mucolipin-1 to lysosomes. One di-leucine motif is positioned at the N-terminal cytosolic tail and mediates direct transport to lysosomes, whereas the other di-leucine motif is found at the C-terminal tail and functions as an adaptor protein 2-dependent internalization motif. We have also found that the C-terminal tail of mucolipin-1 is palmitoylated and that this modification might regulate the efficiency of endocytosis. Finally, the mutagenesis of both di-leucine motifs abrogated lysosomal accumulation and resulted in cell-surface redistribution of mucolipin-1. Taken together, these results reveal novel information regarding the motifs that regulate mucolipin-1 trafficking and suggest a role for palmitoylation in protein sorting. 相似文献

The secretion of Wnt signaling proteins is dependent upon the transmembrane sorting receptor, Wntless (Wls), which recycles between the trans-Golgi network and the cell surface. Loss of Wls results in impairment of Wnt secretion and defects in development and homeostasis in Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans, and the mouse. The sorting signals for the internalization and trafficking of Wls have not been defined. Here, we demonstrate that Wls internalization requires clathrin and dynamin I, components of the clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway. Moreover, we have identified a conserved YXXφ endocytosis motif in the third intracellular loop of the multipass membrane protein Wls. Mutation of the tyrosine-based motif YEGL to AEGL (Y425A) resulted in the accumulation of human mutant Wls on the cell surface of transfected HeLa cells. The cell surface accumulation of WlsAEGL was rescued by the insertion of a classical YXXφ motif in the cytoplasmic tail. Significantly, a Drosophila WlsAEGL mutant displayed a wing notch phenotype, with reduced Wnt secretion and signaling. These findings demonstrate that YXXφ endocytosis motifs can occur in the intracellular loops of multipass membrane proteins and, moreover, provide direct evidence that the trafficking of Wls is required for efficient secretion of Wnt signaling proteins. 相似文献

Interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1RI) is a master regulator of inflammation and innate immunity. When triggered by IL-1beta, IL-1RI aggregates with IL-1R-associated protein (IL-1RAcP) and forms a membrane proximal signalosome that potently activates downstream signaling cascades. IL-1beta also rapidly triggers endocytosis of IL-1RI. Although internalization of IL-1RI significantly impacts signaling, very little is known about trafficking of IL-1RI and therefore about precisely how endocytosis modulates the overall cellular response to IL-1beta. Upon internalization, activated receptors are often sorted through endosomes and delivered to lysosomes for degradation. This is a highly regulated process that requires ubiquitination of cargo proteins as well as protein-sorting complexes that specifically recognize ubiquitinated cargo. Here, we show that IL-1beta induces ubiquitination of IL-1RI and that via these attached ubiquitin groups, IL-1RI interacts with the ubiquitin-binding protein Tollip. By using an assay to follow trafficking of IL-1RI from the cell surface to late endosomes and lysosomes, we demonstrate that Tollip is required for sorting of IL-1RI at late endosomes. In Tollip-deficient cells and cells expressing only mutated Tollip (incapable of binding IL-1RI and ubiquitin), IL-1RI accumulates on late endosomes and is not efficiently degraded. Furthermore, we show that IL-1RI interacts with Tom1, an ubiquitin-, clathrin-, and Tollip-binding protein, and that Tom1 knockdown also results in the accumulation of IL-1RI at late endosomes. Our findings suggest that Tollip functions as an endosomal adaptor linking IL-1RI, via Tom1, to the endosomal degradation machinery. 相似文献
