?-Secretase Activity Is Required for Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Receptor 1 and TNF-mediated Pro-apoptotic Signaling.

ABSTRACT: The ?-secretase protease and associated regulated intramembrane proteolysis play an important role in controlling receptor-mediated intracellular signaling events, which have a central role in Alzheimer disease, cancer progression, and immune surveillance. An increasing number of ?-secretase substrates have a role in cytokine signaling, including the IL-6 receptor, IL-1 receptor type I, and IL-1 receptor type II. In this study, we show that following TNF-converting enzyme-mediated ectodomain shedding of TNF type I receptor (TNFR1), the membrane-bound TNFR1 C-terminal fragment is subsequently cleaved by ?-secretase to generate a cytosolic TNFR1 intracellular domain. We also show that clathrin-mediated internalization of TNFR1 C-terminal fragment is a prerequisite for efficient ?-secretase cleavage of TNFR1. Furthermore, using in vitro and in vivo model systems, we show that in the absence of presenilin expression and ?-secretase activity, TNF-mediated JNK activation was prevented, assembly of the TNFR1 pro-apoptotic complex II was reduced, and TNF-induced apoptosis was inhibited. These observations demonstrate that TNFR1 is a ?-secretase substrate and suggest that ?-secretase cleavage of TNFR1 represents a new layer of regulation that links the presenilins and the ?-secretase protease to pro-inflammatory cytokine signaling.

Project description:Gram-positive bacteria use SigI/RsgI-family sigma factor/anti-sigma factor pairs to sense and respond to cell wall defects and plant polysaccharides. In Bacillus subtilis this signal transduction pathway involves regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP) of the membrane-anchored anti-sigma factor RsgI. However, unlike most RIP signaling pathways, site-1 cleavage of RsgI on the extracytoplasmic side of the membrane is constitutive and the cleavage products remain stably associated, preventing intramembrane proteolysis. The regulated step in this pathway is their dissociation, which is hypothesized to involve mechanical force. Release of the ectodomain enables intramembrane cleavage by the RasP site-2 protease and activation of SigI. The constitutive site-1 protease has not been identified for any RsgI homolog. Here, we report that RsgI's extracytoplasmic domain has structural and functional similarities to eukaryotic SEA domains that undergo autoproteolysis and have been implicated in mechanotransduction. We show that site-1 proteolysis in B. subtilis and Clostridial RsgI family members is mediated by enzyme-independent autoproteolysis of these SEA-like (SEAL) domains. Importantly, the site of proteolysis enables retention of the ectodomain through an undisrupted ß-sheet that spans the two cleavage products. Autoproteolysis can be abrogated by relief of conformational strain in the scissile loop, in a mechanism analogous to eukaryotic SEA domains. Collectively, our data support the model that RsgI-SigI signaling is mediated by mechanotransduction in a manner that has striking parallels with eukaryotic mechanotransducive signaling pathways.SignificanceSEA domains are broadly conserved among eukaryotes but absent in bacteria. They are present on diverse membrane-anchored proteins some of which have been implicated in mechanotransducive signaling pathways. Many of these domains have been found to undergo autoproteolysis and remain noncovalently associated following cleavage. Their dissociation requires mechanical force. Here, we identify a family of bacterial SEA-like (SEAL) domains that arose independently from their eukaryotic counterparts but have structural and functional similarities. We show these SEAL domains autocleave and the cleavage products remain stably associated. Importantly, these domains are present on membrane-anchored anti-sigma factors that have been implicated in mechanotransduction pathways analogous to those in eukaryotes. Our findings suggest that bacterial and eukaryotic signaling systems have evolved a similar mechanism to transduce mechanical stimuli across the lipid bilayer.
