The p85 regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase down-regulates IRS-1 signaling via the formation of a sequestration complex.

Phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase is required for most insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1-dependent cellular responses. The p85 regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase is required to mediate the insulin-dependent recruitment of PI 3-kinase to the plasma membrane, yet mice with reduced p85 expression have increased insulin sensitivity. To further understand the role of p85, we examined IGF-1-dependent translocation of p85alpha by using a green fluorescence protein (GFP)-tagged p85alpha (EGFP-p85alpha). In response to IGF-1, but not to PDGF signaling, EGFP-p85alpha translocates to discrete foci in the cell. These foci contain the insulin receptor substrate (IRS) 1 adaptor molecule, and their formation requires the binding of p85 to IRS-1. Surprisingly, monomeric p85 is preferentially localized to these foci compared with the p85-p110 dimer, and these foci are not sites of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate production. Ultrastructural analysis reveals that p85-IRS-1 foci are cytosolic protein complexes devoid of membrane. These results suggest a mechanism of signal down-regulation of IRS-1 that is mediated by monomeric p85 through the formation of a sequestration complex between p85 and IRS-1.

Postsynaptic targeting of alternative postsynaptic density-95 isoforms by distinct mechanisms.

Members of the postsynaptic density-95 (PSD95)/synapse-associated protein-90 (SAP90) family of scaffolding proteins contain a common set of modular protein interaction motifs including PDZ (postsynaptic density-95/Discs large/zona occludens-1), Src homology 3, and guanylate kinase domains, which regulate signaling and plasticity at excitatory synapses. We report that N-terminal alternative splicing of PSD95 generates an isoform, PSD95beta that contains an additional "L27" motif, which is also present in SAP97. Using yeast two hybrid and coimmunoprecipitation assays, we demonstrate that this N-terminal L27 domain of PSD-95beta, binds to an L27 domain in the membrane-associated guanylate kinase calcium/calmodulin-dependent serine kinase, and to Hrs, an endosomal ATPase that regulates vesicular trafficking. By transfecting heterologous cells and hippocampal neurons, we find that interactions with the L27 domain regulate synaptic clustering of PSD95beta. Disrupting Hrs-regulated early endosomal sorting in hippocampal neurons selectively blocks synaptic clustering of PSD95beta but does not interfere with trafficking of the palmitoylated isoform, PSD95alpha. These studies identify molecular and functional heterogeneity in synaptic PSD95 complexes and reveal critical roles for L27 domain interactions and Hrs regulated vesicular trafficking in postsynaptic protein clustering.

Molecular mechanism of membrane recruitment of GGA by ARF in lysosomal protein transport.

GGAs are critical for trafficking soluble proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to endosomes/lysosomes through interactions with TGN-sorting receptors, ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and clathrin. ARF-GTP bound to TGN membranes recruits its effector GGA by binding to the GAT domain, thus facilitating recognition of GGA for cargo-loaded receptors. Here we report the X-ray crystal structures of the human GGA1-GAT domain and the complex between ARF1-GTP and the N-terminal region of the GAT domain. When unbound, the GAT domain forms an elongated bundle of three a-helices with a hydrophobic core. Structurally, this domain, combined with the preceding VHS domain, resembles CALM, an AP180 homolog involved in endocytosis. In the complex with ARF1-GTP, a helix-loop-helix of the N-terminal part of GGA1-GAT interacts with the switches 1 and 2 of ARF1 predominantly in a hydrophobic manner. These data reveal a molecular mechanism underlying membrane recruitment of adaptor proteins by ARF-GTP.

Identification of shc as the primary protein binding to the tyrosine-phosphorylated beta 3 subunit of alpha IIbbeta 3 during outside-in integrin platelet signaling.

Outside-in signaling mediated by the integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) (GPIIbIIIa) is critical to platelet function and has been shown to involve the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on the cytoplasmic tail of beta(3). To identify proteins that bind directly to phosphorylated beta(3), we utilized an affinity column consisting of a peptide modeled on the tyrosine-phosphorylated cytoplasmic domain of beta(3). Tandem mass spectrometric sequencing and immunoblotting demonstrated that Shc was the primary protein binding to phosphorylated beta(3). To determine the involvement of Shc in outside-in alpha(IIb)beta(3) signaling, the phosphorylation of Shc during platelet aggregation was examined; transient Shc phosphorylation was observed when thrombin-stimulated platelets were allowed to aggregate or when aggregation was induced by an LIBS (ligand-induced binding site) antibody, D3. Moreover, Shc was co-immunoprecipitated with tyrosine-phosphorylated beta(3) in detergent lysates of aggregated platelets. Using purified, recombinant protein, it was found that the binding of Shc to monophosphorylated (C-terminal tyrosine) and diphosphorylated beta(3) peptides was direct, demonstrating Shc recognition motifs on phospho-beta(3). Aggregation-induced Shc phosphorylation was also observed to be robust in platelets from wild-type mice, but not in those from mice expressing (Y747F,Y759F) beta(3), which are defective in outside-in alpha(IIb)beta(3) signaling. Thus, Shc is the primary downstream signaling partner of beta(3) in its tyrosine phosphorylation outside-in signaling pathway.

A role for myosin VI in postsynaptic structure and glutamate receptor endocytosis.

Myosin VI (Myo6) is an actin-based motor protein implicated in clathrin-mediated endocytosis in nonneuronal cells, though little is known about its function in the nervous system. Here, we find that Myo6 is highly expressed throughout the brain, localized to synapses, and enriched at the postsynaptic density. Myo6-deficient (Snell's waltzer; sv/sv) hippocampus exhibits a decrease in synapse number, abnormally short dendritic spines, and profound astrogliosis. Similarly, cultured sv/sv hippocampal neurons display decreased numbers of synapses and dendritic spines, and dominant-negative disruption of Myo6 in wild-type hippocampal neurons induces synapse loss. Importantly, we find that sv/sv hippocampal neurons display a significant deficit in the stimulation-induced internalization of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs), and that Myo6 exists in a complex with the AMPAR, AP-2, and SAP97 in brain. These results suggest that Myo6 plays a role in the clathrin-mediated endocytosis of AMPARs, and that its loss leads to alterations in synaptic structure and astrogliosis.

Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase C2beta regulates cytoskeletal organization and cell migration via Rac-dependent mechanisms.

Receptor-linked class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) induce assembly of signal transduction complexes through protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions that mediate cell proliferation, survival, and migration. Although class II PI3Ks have the potential to make the same phosphoinositides as class I PI3Ks, their precise cellular role is currently unclear. In this report, we demonstrate that class II phosphoinositide 3-kinase C2beta (PI3KC2beta) associates with the Eps8/Abi1/Sos1 complex and is recruited to the EGF receptor as part of a multiprotein signaling complex also involving Shc and Grb2. Increased expression of PI3KC2beta stimulated Rac activity in A-431 epidermoid carcinoma cells, resulting in enhanced membrane ruffling and migration speed of the cells. Conversely, expression of dominant negative PI3KC2beta reduced Rac activity, membrane ruffling, and cell migration. Moreover, PI3KC2beta-overexpressing cells were protected from anoikis and displayed enhanced proliferation, independently of Rac function. Taken together, these findings suggest that PI3KC2beta regulates the migration and survival of human tumor cells by distinct molecular mechanisms.

Internalization of pseudorabies virus glycoprotein B is mediated by an interaction between the YQRL motif in its cytoplasmic domain and the clathrin-associated AP-2 adaptor complex.

The cytoplasmic domain of pseudorabies virus (PRV) glycoprotein B (gB) contains three putative internalization motifs. Previously, we demonstrated that the tyrosine-based YQRL motif at positions 902 to 905, but not the YMSI motif at positions 864 to 867 or the LL doublet at positions 887 and 888, is required for correct functioning of gB during antibody-mediated internalization of PRV cell surface-bound glycoproteins. In the present study, we demonstrate that the YQRL motif is also crucial to allow spontaneous internalization of PRV gB, and thus, that spontaneous and antibody-mediated internalizations of PRV gB occur through closely related mechanisms. Furthermore, we found that PRV gB colocalizes with the cellular clathrin-associated AP-2 adaptor complex and that this colocalization depends on the YQRL motif. In addition, by coimmunoprecipitation assays, we found that during both spontaneous and antibody-dependent internalization, PRV gB physically interacts with AP-2, and that efficient interaction between gB and AP-2 required an intact YQRL motif. Collectively, these findings demonstrate for the first time that during internalization of an alphaherpesvirus envelope protein, i.e., PRV gB, a specific amino acid sequence in the cytoplasmic tail of the protein interacts with AP-2 and may constitute a common AP-2-mediated mechanism of internalization of alphaherpesvirus envelope proteins.

Cellular context of coregulator and adaptor proteins regulates human adenovirus 5 early region 1A-dependent gene activation by the thyroid hormone receptor.

In mammalian cells, the human adenovirus type 5 early region 1A (E1A) oncoprotein functions as a thyroid hormone (TH)-dependent activator of the thyroid hormone receptor (TR). Interestingly, in the cellular context of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, E1A acts as a TR-specific constitutive coactivator that is down-regulated by TH. TH reduces the interaction of E1A with the TR in yeast but not HeLa cells. The N-terminal 82 amino acids of E1A are sufficient for coactivation in yeast and residues 4-29 are essential. In yeast, expression of the nuclear receptor corepressor (N-CoR) could down-regulate constitutive transcriptional activation of the TR by E1A, whereas expression of the glucocorticoid receptor interacting protein 1 (GRIP-1) coactivator reconstituted the E1A-induced pattern of enhanced TH-dependent gene activation by TR observed in mammalian cells. We further show that the mating type switching gene (SWI)/sucrose nonfermenting (SNF) gene chromatin remodeling complex is required for both TH/GRIP-1- and E1A-dependent coactivator function, whereas the general control nonrepressed protein (GCN5)/alteration/deficiency in activation protein (ADA2) components of the SPT, ADA, GCN5, acetylation (SAGA) transcriptional adaptor complex are required for TH/GRIP-1, but not E1A-dependent activation of the TR. Taken together, these studies demonstrate that the novel TR-specific coactivator function of E1A in yeast depends on the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex and can be further influenced by changes in the cellular complement of transcriptional coregulatory proteins.

The adaptor complex 2 directly interacts with the alpha 1b-adrenergic receptor and plays a role in receptor endocytosis.

Using the yeast two-hybrid system, we identified the mu 2 subunit of the clathrin adaptor complex 2 as a protein interacting with the C-tail of the alpha 1b-adrenergic receptor (AR). Direct association between the alpha 1b-AR and mu 2 was demonstrated using a solid phase overlay assay. The alpha 1b-AR/mu 2 interaction occurred inside the cells, as shown by the finding that the transfected alpha 1b-AR and the endogenous mu 2 could be coimmunoprecipitated from HEK-293 cell extracts. Mutational analysis of the alpha 1b-AR revealed that the binding site for mu 2 does not involve canonical YXX Phi or dileucine motifs but a stretch of eight arginines on the receptor C-tail. The binding domain of mu 2 for the receptor C-tail involves both its N terminus and the subdomain B of its C-terminal portion. The alpha 1b-AR specifically interacted with mu 2, but not with the mu 1, mu 3, or mu 4 subunits belonging to other AP complexes. The deletion of the mu 2 binding site in the C-tail markedly decreased agonist-induced receptor internalization as demonstrated by confocal microscopy as well as by the results of a surface receptor biotinylation assay. The direct association of the adaptor complex 2 with a G protein-coupled receptor has not been reported so far and might represent a common mechanism underlying clathrin-mediated receptor endocytosis.

Sorting of H,K-ATPase beta-subunit in MDCK and LLC-PK cells is independent of mu 1B adaptin expression.

The cytoplasmic tail of the H,K-ATPase beta-subunit contains a putative tyrosine-based motif that directs the beta-subunit's basolateral sorting when it is expressed in Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells. When expressed in LLC-PK(1) cells, however, the beta-subunit is localized to the apical membrane. Several proteins that contain tyrosine-based motifs, including the low-density lipoprotein and transferrin receptors, show a similar sorting 'defect' when expressed in LLC-PK(1) cells. For low-density lipoprotein and transferrin receptors, this behavior is due to the differential expression of the mu 1B subunit of the AP-1B clathrin adaptor complex. mu 1B is expressed by MDCK cells, but not LLC-PK(1) cells, and transfection of mu 1B into LLC-PK(1) cells restores basolateral localization of low-density lipoprotein and transferrin receptors. For the beta-subunit, however, mu B expression in LLC-PK(1) cells does not induce its basolateral expression. We found that the beta-subunit interacts with both mu 1B and mu 1A in vitro and in vivo. The capacity to participate in a mu 1B interaction therefore is not sufficient to program the beta-subunit's basolateral localization in MDCK cells. Our data suggest that the H,K-ATPase beta-subunit's basolateral sorting signal is either masked in certain epithelial cells, or requires an interaction with sorting machinery other than AP-1B for delivery to the basolateral plasma membrane.

G-protein-coupled receptors for neurotransmitter amino acids: C-terminal tails, crowded signalosomes.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a superfamily of highly diverse integral membrane proteins that transduce external signals to different subcellular compartments, including nuclei, via trimeric G-proteins. By differential activation of diffusible G(alpha) and membrane-bound G(beta)gamma subunits, GPCRs might act on both cytoplasmic/intracellular and plasma-membrane-bound effector systems. The coupling efficiency and the plasma membrane localization of GPCRs are regulated by a variety of interacting proteins. In this review, we discuss recently disclosed protein interactions found with the cytoplasmic C-terminal tail regions of two types of presynaptic neurotransmitter receptors, the group III metabotropic glutamate receptors and the gamma-aminobutyric acid type-B receptors (GABA(B)Rs). Calmodulin binding to mGluR7 and other group III mGluRs may provide a Ca(2+)-dependent switch for unidirectional (G(alpha)) versus bidirectional (G(alpha) and G(beta)gamma) signalling to downstream effector proteins. In addition, clustering of mGluR7 by PICK1 (protein interacting with C-kinase 1), a polyspecific PDZ (PSD-95/Dlg1/ZO-1) domain containing synaptic organizer protein, sheds light on how higher-order receptor complexes with regulatory enzymes (or 'signalosomes') could be formed. The interaction of GABA(B)Rs with the adaptor protein 14-3-3 and the transcription factor ATF4 (activating transcription factor 4) suggests novel regulatory pathways for G-protein signalling, cytoskeletal reorganization and nuclear gene expression: processes that may all contribute to synaptic plasticity.

Molecular characterization of the protein encoded by the Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 1 gene.

Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) comprises a group of genetic disorders characterized by defective lysosome-related organelles. The most common form of HPS (HPS type 1) is caused by mutations in a gene encoding a protein with no homology to any other known protein. Here we report the identification and biochemical characterization of this gene product, termed HPS1p. Endogenous HPS1p was detected in a wide variety of human cell lines and exhibited an electrophoretic mobility corresponding to a protein of approximately 80 kDa. In contrast to previous theoretical analysis predicting that HPS1p is an integral membrane protein, we found that this protein was predominantly cytosolic, with a small amount being peripherally associated with membranes. The sedimentation coefficient of the soluble form of HPS1p was approximately 6 S as inferred from ultracentrifugation on sucrose gradients. HPS1p-deficient cells derived from patients with HPS type 1 displayed normal distribution and trafficking of the lysosomal membrane proteins, CD63 and Lamp-1. This was in contrast to cells from HPS type 2 patients, having mutations in the beta3A subunit of the AP-3 adaptor complex, which exhibited increased routing of these lysosomal proteins through the plasma membrane. Similar analyses performed on fibroblasts from 10 different mouse models of HPS revealed that only the AP-3 mutants pearl and mocha display increased trafficking of Lamp-1 through the plasma membrane. Taken together, these observations suggest that the product of the HPS1 gene is a cytosolic protein capable of associating with membranes and involved in the biogenesis and/or function of lysosome-related organelles by a mechanism distinct from that dependent on the AP-3 complex.

Binding-induced stabilization and assembly of the phage P22 tail accessory factor gp4.

To infect and replicate, bacteriophage P22 injects its 43 kbp genome across the cell wall of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. The attachment of phage P22 to the host cell as well as the injection of the viral DNA into the host is mediated by the virion's tail complex. This 2.8 MDa molecular machine is formed by five proteins, which include the portal protein gp1, the adhesion tailspike protein gp9, and three tail accessory factors: gp4, gp10, gp26. We have isolated the tail accessory factor gp4 and characterized its structure and binding interactions with portal protein. Interestingly, gp4 exists in solution as a monomer, which displays an exceedingly low structural stability (Tm 34 degrees C). Unfolded gp4 is prone to aggregation within a narrow range of temperatures both in vitro and in Salmonella extracts. In the virion the thermal unfolding of gp4 is prevented by the interaction with the dodecameric portal protein, which stabilizes the structure of gp4 and suppresses unfolded gp4 from irreversibly aggregating in the Salmonella milieu. The structural stabilization of gp4 is accompanied by the concomitant oligomerization of the protein to form a ring of 12 subunits bound to the lower end of the portal ring. The interaction of gp4 with portal protein is complex and likely involves the distinct binding of two non-equivalent sets of six gp4 proteins. Binding of the first set of six gp4 equivalents to dodecameric portal protein yields a gp(1)12:gp(4)6 assembly intermediate, which is stably populated at 30 degrees C and can be resolved by native gel electrophoresis. The final product of the assembly reaction is a bi-dodecameric gp(1)12:gp(4)12 complex, which appears hollow by electron microscopy, suggesting that gp4 does not physically plug the DNA entry/exit channel, but acts as a structural adaptor for the other tail accessory factors: gp10 and gp26.

Identification of phosphorylated proteins associated with the fibroblast growth factor receptor type I during early Xenopus development.

Signaling through the FGF receptor (FGFR) is required for mesoderm induction in Xenopus. Some of the downstream signaling molecules implicated in this developmental process include Ras, Raf and MAP kinase. In a previous report, we demonstrated that PLC gamma 1, Grb-2, SOS and Nck were associated with activated FGFR1s in a signaling complex in Xenopus blastulae. In addition, several unidentified phosphotyrosylproteins were present in the FGFR1 complex. Here we identify three of these proteins as Ras-GAP, the p85 of P13'K and SHP2, while demonstrating that c-Src and She were not associated with the FGFR1. Furthermore, we show that three additional phosphotyrosylproteins from the FGFR1 complex specifically bound to the adaptor molecule Nck.

Assembly of an SAP97-AKAP79-cAMP-dependent protein kinase scaffold at the type 1 PSD-95/DLG/ZO1 motif of the human beta(1)-adrenergic receptor generates a receptosome involved in receptor recycling and networking.

Appropriate trafficking of the beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)-AR) after agonist-promoted internalization is crucial for the resensitization of its signaling pathway. Efficient recycling of the beta(1)-AR required the binding of the protein kinase A anchoring protein-79 (AKAP79) to the carboxyl terminus of the beta(1)-AR (Gardner, L. A., Tavalin, S. A., Goehring, A., Scott, J. D., and Bahouth, S. W. (2006) J. Biol. Chem. 281, 33537-33553). In this study we show that AKAP79 forms a complex with the type 1 PDZ-binding sequence (ESKV) at the extreme carboxyl terminus of the beta(1)-AR, which is mediated by the membrane-associated guanylate kinase (MAGUK) protein SAP97. Thus, the PDZ and its associated SAP97-AKAP79 complex are involved in targeting the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) to the beta(1)-AR. The PDZ and its scaffold were required for efficient recycling of the beta(1)-AR and for PKA-mediated phosphorylation of the beta(1)-AR at Ser(312). Overexpression of the catalytic subunit of PKA or mutagenesis of Ser(312) to the phosphoserine mimic aspartic acid both rescued the recycling of the trafficking-defective beta(1)-ARDelta PDZ mutant. Thus, trafficking signals transmitted from the PDZ-associated scaffold in the carboxyl terminus of the beta(1)-AR to Ser(312) in the 3rd intracellular loop (3rd IC) were paramount in setting the trafficking itinerary of the beta(1)-AR. The data presented here show that a novel beta(1)-adrenergic receptosome is organized at the beta(1)-AR PDZ to generate a scaffold essential for trafficking and networking of the beta(1)-AR.

Overexpression of CIN85 suppresses the growth of herpes simplex virus in HeLa cells.

The adaptor protein CIN85 is widely distributed in different tissues and has three Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, a proline-rich region (PRR), and a coiled-coil domain. During studies on the function of CIN85, it was reported to form a complex with herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infected cell protein 0 (ICP0), which plays a key role in enabling viral replication. Here, we demonstrate that plaque formation by HSV-1 is reduced on HeLa cells expressing CIN85 ectopically. The PRR of CIN85 was found to be essential for the inhibition of virus growth, whereas the three SH3 domains were not required. CIN85 also suppressed HSV-1 growth in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the receptor for herpes simplex virus entry (herpes virus entry mediator A; HVEM). However, immunoprecipitation experiments showed that CIN85 did not interact with HVEM directly, indicating that CIN85 is not involved in the HSV-1 cell-entry pathway, but rather in another downstream pathway. Collectively, our data indicate that CIN85 might play an important role in HSV-1 infection.

P66(ShcA) interacts with MAPKAP kinase 2 and regulates its activity.

Three mitogen activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAP kinase 2, MK2) interacting proteins were identified using a yeast two-hybrid approach. ShcA, a signaling phospho-protein, human polyhomeotic 2 (HPH2), a transcriptional regulator, and highly similar to smoothelin (HSTS), which is related to the cytoskeletal associated protein smoothelin, interact specifically with MK2. The interaction of MK2 with the 66 kDa isoform of ShcA, p66(ShcA), and HPH2 was confirmed using co-immunoprecipitation. MK2 is activated with p66(ShcA) co-expression and p66(ShcA) is an in vitro substrate for MK2, further demonstrating their association and suggesting a biological role for p66(Shc) in MK2 activation.
