Do GGA adaptors bind internal DXXLL motifs?

ABSTRACT: The GGA family of clathrin adaptor proteins mediates the intracellular trafficking of transmembrane proteins by interacting with DXXLL-type sorting signals on the latter. These signals were originally identified at the carboxy-termini of the transmembrane cargo proteins. Subsequent studies, however, showed that internal DXXLL sorting motifs occur within the N- or C-terminal cytoplasmic domains of cargo molecules. The GGAs themselves also contain internal DXXLL motifs that serve to auto-regulate GGA function. A recent study challenged the notion that internal DXXLL signals are competent for binding to GGAs. Since the question of whether GGA adaptors interact with internal DXXLL motifs is fundamental to the identification of bona fide GGA cargo, and to an accurate understanding of GGA regulation within cells, we have extended our previous findings. We now present additional evidence confirming that GGAs do interact with internal DXXLL motifs. We also summarize the recent reports from other laboratories documenting internal GGA binding motifs.

Yeast and human Ysl2p/hMon2 interact with Gga adaptors and mediate their subcellular distribution.

Project description:The Gga proteins represent a family of ubiquitously expressed clathrin adaptors engaged in vesicle budding at the tubular endosomal network/trans Golgi network. Their membrane recruitment is commonly thought to involve interactions with Arf and signals in cargo through the so-called VHS domain. For yeast Gga proteins, however, partners binding to its VHS domain have remained elusive and Gga localization does not absolutely depend on Arf. Here, we demonstrate that yeast Gga recruitment relies on a network of interactions between the scaffold Ysl2p/Mon2p, the small GTPase Arl1p, and the flippase Neo1p. Deletion of either YSL2 or ARL1 causes mislocalization of Gga2p, whereas a neo1-69 mutant accumulates Gga2p on aberrant structures. Remarkably, Ysl2p directly interacts with human and yeast Ggas through the VHS domain, and binding to Gga proteins is also found for the human Ysl2p orthologue hMon2. Thus, Ysl2p represents an essential, evolutionarily conserved member of a network controlling direct binding and membrane docking of Ggas. Because activated Arl1p is part of the network that binds Gga2p, Arf and Arf-like GTPases may interact in a regulatory cascade.

PDZ motifs in PTP-BL and RIL bind to internal protein segments in the LIM domain protein RIL.

Project description:The specificity of protein-protein interactions in cellular signaling cascades is dependent on the sequence and intramolecular location of distinct amino acid motifs. We used the two-hybrid interaction trap to identify proteins that can associate with the PDZ motif-rich segment in the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP-BL. A specific interaction was found with the Lin-11, Isl-1, Mec-3 (LIM) domain containing protein RIL. More detailed analysis demonstrated that the binding specificity resides in the second and fourth PDZ motif of PTP-BL and the LIM domain in RIL. Immunohistochemistry on various mouse tissues revealed a submembranous colocalization of PTP-BL and RIL in epithelial cells. Remarkably, there is also an N-terminal PDZ motif in RIL itself that can bind to the RIL-LIM domain. We demonstrate here that the RIL-LIM domain can be phosphorylated on tyrosine in vitro and in vivo and can be dephosphorylated in vitro by the PTPase domain of PTP-BL. Our data point to the presence of a double PDZ-binding interface on the RIL-LIM domain and suggest tyrosine phosphorylation as a regulatory mechanism for LIM-PDZ associations in the assembly of multiprotein complexes. These findings are in line with an important role of PDZ-mediated interactions in the shaping and organization of submembranous microenvironments of polarized cells.

Ent3 and GGA adaptors facilitate diverse anterograde and retrograde trafficking events to and from the prevacuolar endosome.

Project description:Carboxypeptidases Y (Cpy1) and S (Cps1), the receptor Vps10, and the ATPase subunit Vph1 follow the carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) pathway from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the prevacuolar endosome (PVE). Using Schizosaccharomyces pombe quantitative live-cell imaging, biochemical and genetic analyses, we extended the previous knowledge and showed that collaboration between Gga22, the dominant Golgi-localized Gamma-ear-containing ARF-binding (GGA) protein, and Gga21, and between Gga22 and the endosomal epsin Ent3, was required for efficient: i) Vps10 anterograde trafficking from the TGN to the PVE; ii) Vps10 retrograde trafficking from the PVE to the TGN; iii) Cps1 exit from the TGN, and its sorting in the PVE en route to the vacuole; and iv) Syb1/Snc1 recycling to the plasma membrane through the PVE. Therefore, monomeric clathrin adaptors facilitated the trafficking of Vps10 in both directions of the CPY pathway, and facilitated trafficking events of Cps1 in different organelles. By contrast, they were dispensable for Vph1 trafficking. Thus, these adaptors regulated the traffic of some, but not all, of the cargo of the CPY pathway, and regulated the traffic of cargoes that do not follow this pathway. Additionally, this collaboration was required for PVE organization and efficient growth under stress.

Clathrin terminal domain-ligand interactions regulate sorting of mannose 6-phosphate receptors mediated by AP-1 and GGA adaptors.

Project description:Clathrin plays important roles in intracellular membrane traffic including endocytosis of plasma membrane proteins and receptors and protein sorting between the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. Whether clathrin serves additional roles in receptor recycling, degradative sorting, or constitutive secretion has remained somewhat controversial. Here we have used acute pharmacological perturbation of clathrin terminal domain (TD) function to dissect the role of clathrin in intracellular membrane traffic. We report that internalization of major histocompatibility complex I (MHCI) is inhibited in cells depleted of clathrin or its major clathrin adaptor complex 2 (AP-2), a phenotype mimicked by application of Pitstop® inhibitors of clathrin TD function. Hence, MHCI endocytosis occurs via a clathrin/AP-2-dependent pathway. Acute perturbation of clathrin also impairs the dynamics of intracellular clathrin/adaptor complex 1 (AP-1)- or GGA (Golgi-localized, ?-ear-containing, Arf-binding protein)-coated structures at the TGN/endosomal interface, resulting in the peripheral dispersion of mannose 6-phosphate receptors. By contrast, secretory traffic of vesicular stomatitis virus G protein, recycling of internalized transferrin from endosomes, or degradation of EGF receptor proceeds unperturbed in cells with impaired clathrin TD function. These data indicate that clathrin is required for the function of AP-1- and GGA-coated carriers at the TGN but may be dispensable for outward traffic en route to the plasma membrane.

The GAT domains of clathrin-associated GGA proteins have two ubiquitin binding motifs.

Project description:Ubiquitin (Ub) attachment to membrane proteins can serve as a sorting signal for lysosomal delivery. Recognition of Ub as a sorting signal can occur at the trans-Golgi network and is mediated in part by the clathrin-associated Golgi-localizing, gamma-adaptin ear domain homology, ARF-binding proteins (GGA). GGA proteins bind Ub via a three-helix bundle subdomain in their GAT (GGA and target of Myb1 protein) domain, which is also present in the Ub binding domain of target of Myb1 protein. Ubiquitin binding by yeast Ggas is required to direct sorting of ubiquitinated proteins such as general amino acid permease (Gap1) from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes. Using affinity chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, we have found that the human GGA3 GAT domain contains two Ub binding motifs that bind to the same surface of ubiquitin. These motifs are found within different helices within the three-helix GAT subdomain. When functionally analyzed in yeast, each motif was sufficient to mediate trans-Golgi network to endosomal sorting of Gap1, and mutation of both motifs resulted in defective Gap1 sorting without defects in other GGA-dependent processes.

Single-Molecule Analyte Recognition with ClyA Nanopores Equipped with Internal Protein Adaptors.

Project description:Nanopores have been used to detect molecules, to sequence DNA, or to investigate chemical reactions at the single-molecule level. Because they approach the absolute limit of sensor miniaturization, nanopores are amenable to parallelization and could be used in single-cell measurements. Here we show that single enzymes can be functionally and reversibly trapped inside the confined space of a ClyA nanopore. Remarkably, the binding of ligands to the internalized proteins is mirrored by specific changes to the nanopore conductance. Conveniently, the manipulation of the charge of the protein allowed increasing of the residence time of the protein inside the nanopore. Nanopores with internalized protein adaptors can be used to study proteins in real time or can be incorporated into inexpensive portable devices for the detection of analytes with high selectivity.

Integrin signaling in neutrophils and macrophages uses adaptors containing immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs.

Project description:At sites of inflammation, ligation of leukocyte integrins is critical for the activation of cellular effector functions required for host defense. However, the signaling pathways linking integrin ligation to cellular responses are poorly understood. Here we show that integrin signaling in neutrophils and macrophages requires adaptors containing immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs). Neutrophils and macrophages lacking two ITAM-containing adaptor proteins, DAP12 and FcRgamma, were defective in integrin-mediated responses. Activation of the tyrosine kinase Syk by integrins required that DAP12 and FcRgamma were first phosphorylated by Src family kinases. Retroviral transduction of neutrophils and macrophages with wild-type and mutant Syk or DAP12 demonstrated that the Src homology 2 domains of Syk and the ITAM of DAP12 were required for integrin signaling. Our data show that integrin signaling for the activation of cellular responses in neutrophils and macrophages proceeds by an immunoreceptor-like mechanism.

The MTR4 helicase recruits nuclear adaptors of the human RNA exosome using distinct arch-interacting motifs.

Project description:The nuclear exosome and its essential co-factor, the RNA helicase MTR4, play crucial roles in several RNA degradation pathways. Besides unwinding RNA substrates for exosome-mediated degradation, MTR4 associates with RNA-binding proteins that function as adaptors in different RNA processing and decay pathways. Here, we identify and characterize the interactions of human MTR4 with a ribosome processing adaptor, NVL, and with ZCCHC8, an adaptor involved in the decay of small nuclear RNAs. We show that the unstructured regions of NVL and ZCCHC8 contain short linear motifs that bind the MTR4 arch domain in a mutually exclusive manner. These short sequences diverged from the arch-interacting motif (AIM) of yeast rRNA processing factors. Our results suggest that nuclear exosome adaptors have evolved canonical and non-canonical AIM sequences to target human MTR4 and demonstrate the versatility and specificity with which the MTR4 arch domain can recruit a repertoire of different RNA-binding proteins.

Drosophila GGA model: an ultimate gateway to GGA analysis.

Project description:Golgi-localized, γ-ear-containing, ADP ribosylation factor-binding (GGA) proteins are monomeric adaptors implicated in clathrin-mediated vesicular transport between the trans Golgi network and endosomes, characterized mainly from cell culture analysis of lysosomal sorting. To provide the first demonstration of GGA's role in vivo, we used Drosophila which has a single GGA and a single lysosomal sorting receptor, lysosomal enzyme receptor protein (LERP). Using RNAi knockdowns, we show that the Drosophila GGA is required for lysosomal sorting. We further identified authentic components of the Drosophila lysosomal sorting system--the sorting receptor LERP, the sorting adaptor GGA and the lysosomal cargo cathepsins B1, D and L--to show that GGA depletion results in lysosomal dysfunction. Abnormal lysosomal morphology, missorting of lysosomal cathepsins and impaired lysosomal proteolysis show disturbed LERP trafficking after GGA depletion. GGA is highly expressed in the mushroom bodies and the pigment cells of the retina, and increasing or decreasing the levels of GGA in the eyes leads to retinal defects. Reduced GGA levels also enhance an eye defect caused by overexpression of the autophagy-associated protein Blue cheese (Bchs), implicating GGA in autophagic processes. This shows that Drosophila provides an excellent whole-animal model to gain new insights into the function of GGA in the physiological environment of a multicellular organism.

A crucial role in cell spreading for the interaction of Abl PxxP motifs with Crk and Nck adaptors.

Project description:The dynamic reorganization of actin structures helps to mediate the interaction of cells with their environment. The Abl non-receptor tyrosine kinase can modulate actin rearrangement during cell attachment. Here we report that the Abl PxxP motifs, which bind Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, are indispensable for the coordinated regulation of filopodium and focal adhesion formation and cell-spreading dynamics during attachment. Candidate Abl PxxP-motif-binding partners were identified by screening a comprehensive SH3-domain phage-display library. A combination of protein overexpression, silencing, pharmacological manipulation and mutational analysis demonstrated that the PxxP motifs of Abl exert their effects on actin organization by two distinct mechanisms, involving the inhibition of Crk signaling and the engagement of Nck. These results uncover a previously unappreciated role for Abl PxxP motifs in the regulation of cell spreading.
