The peroxisome biogenesis factors posttranslationally target reticulon homology domain-containing proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane.

ABSTRACT: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is shaped by a class of membrane proteins containing reticulon homology domain (RHD), the conserved hydrophobic domain encompassing two short hairpin transmembrane domains. RHD resides in the outer leaflet of the ER membrane, generating high-curvature ER membrane. While most of the membrane proteins destined to enter the secretory pathway are cotranslationally targeted and inserted into ER membrane, the molecular mechanism how the RHD-containing proteins are targeted and inserted into the ER membrane remains to be clarified. Here we show that RHD-containing proteins can be posttranslationally targeted to the ER membrane. PEX19, a cytosolic peroxin, selectively recognizes the nascent RHD-containing proteins and mediates their posttranslational targeting in cooperation with PEX3, a membrane peroxin. Thus, these peroxisome biogenesis factors provide an alternative posttranslational route for membrane insertion of the RHD-containing proteins, implying that ER membrane shaping and peroxisome biogenesis may be coordinated by the posttranslational membrane insertion.

A combined approach of quantitative interaction proteomics and live-cell imaging reveals a regulatory role for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) reticulon homology proteins in peroxisome biogenesis.

Project description:Peroxisome biogenesis initiates at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and maturation allows for the formation of metabolically active organelles. Yet, peroxisomes can also multiply by growth and division. Several proteins, called peroxins, are known to participate in these processes but little is known about their organization to orchestrate peroxisome proliferation. Here, we demonstrate that regulation of peroxisome proliferation relies on the integrity of the tubular ER network. Using a dual track SILAC-based quantitative interaction proteomics approach, we established a comprehensive network of stable as well as transient interactions of the peroxin Pex30p, an integral membrane protein. Through association with merely ER resident proteins, in particular with proteins containing a reticulon homology domain, and with other peroxins, Pex30p designates peroxisome contact sites at ER subdomains. We show that Pex30p traffics through the ER and segregates in punctae to which peroxisomes specifically append, and we ascertain its transient interaction with all subunits of the COPI coatomer complex suggesting the involvement of a vesicle-mediated transport. We establish that the membrane protein Pex30p facilitates the connection of peroxisomes to the ER. Taken together, our data indicate that Pex30p-containing protein complexes act as focal points from which peroxisomes can form and that the tubular ER architecture organized by the reticulon homology proteins Rtn1p, Rtn2p and Yop1p controls this process.

Reticulon Homology Domain-Containing Proteins and ER-Phagy.

Project description:The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a dynamic membrane system comprising different and interconnected subdomains. The ER structure changes in response to different stress conditions through the activation of a selective autophagic pathway called ER-phagy. This represents a quality control mechanism for ER turnover and component recycling. Several ER-resident proteins have been indicated as receptors for ER-phagy; among these, there are proteins characterized by the presence of a reticulon homology domain (RHD). RHD-containing proteins promote ER fragmentation by a mechanism that involves LC3 binding and lysosome delivery. Moreover, the presence of a correct RHD structure is closely related to their capability to regulate ER shape and morphology by curvature induction and membrane remodeling. Deregulation of the ER-selective autophagic pathway due to defects in proteins with RHD has been implicated in several human diseases, infectious and neurodegenerative diseases in particular, as well as in cancer development. While the molecular mechanisms and the physiological role of ER-phagy are not yet fully understood, it is quite clear that this process is involved in different cellular signaling pathways and has an impact in several human pathologies.

Peroxisome dependency of alkyl-containing GPI-anchor biosynthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) play various roles in cell-cell and cell-environment interactions. GPI is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from phosphatidylinositol (PI) through step-wise reactions including transfers of monosaccharides and preassembled GPI is transferred en bloc to proteins. Cellular PI contains mostly diacyl glycerol and unsaturated fatty acid in the sn-2 position, whereas mammalian GPI-APs have mainly 1-alkyl-2-acyl PI and almost exclusively stearic acid, a saturated chain, at the sn-2 position. The latter characteristic is the result of fatty acid remodeling occurring in the Golgi, generating GPI-anchors compatible with raft membrane. The former characteristic is the result of diacyl to alkyl-acyl change occurring in the third GPI intermediate, glucosaminyl-inositolacylated-PI (GlcN-acyl-PI). Here we investigated the origin of the sn-1 alkyl-chain in GPI-APs. Using cell lines defective in the peroxisomal alkyl-phospholipid biosynthetic pathway, we demonstrated that generation of alkyl-containing GPI is dependent upon the peroxisomal pathway. We further demonstrated that in cells defective in the peroxisome pathway, the chain composition of the diacyl glycerol moiety in GlcN-acyl-PI is different from those in the first intermediate N-acetylglucosaminyl-PI and cellular PI, indicating that not only diacyl to alkyl-acyl change but also diacyl to diacyl change occurs in GlcN-acyl-PI. We therefore propose a biosynthetic step within GlcN-acyl-PI in which the diacyl glycerol (or diacyl phosphatidic acid) part is replaced by diradyl glycerol (or diradyl phosphatidic acid). These results highlight cooperation of three organelles, the ER, the Golgi, and the peroxisome, in the generation of the lipid portion of GPI-APs.

An alternative pathway for membrane protein biogenesis at the endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:The heterotrimeric Sec61 complex is a major site for the biogenesis of transmembrane proteins (TMPs), accepting nascent TMP precursors that are targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the signal recognition particle (SRP). Unlike most single-spanning membrane proteins, the integration of type III TMPs is completely resistant to small molecule inhibitors of the Sec61 translocon. Using siRNA-mediated depletion of specific ER components, in combination with the potent Sec61 inhibitor ipomoeassin F (Ipom-F), we show that type III TMPs utilise a distinct pathway for membrane integration at the ER. Hence, following SRP-mediated delivery to the ER, type III TMPs can uniquely access the membrane insertase activity of the ER membrane complex (EMC) via a mechanism that is facilitated by the Sec61 translocon. This alternative EMC-mediated insertion pathway allows type III TMPs to bypass the Ipom-F-mediated blockade of membrane integration that is seen with obligate Sec61 clients.

Dynamic constriction and fission of endoplasmic reticulum membranes by reticulon.

Project description:The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a continuous cell-wide membrane network. Network formation has been associated with proteins producing membrane curvature and fusion, such as reticulons and atlastin. Regulated network fragmentation, occurring in different physiological contexts, is less understood. Here we find that the ER has an embedded fragmentation mechanism based upon the ability of reticulon to produce fission of elongating network branches. In Drosophila, Rtnl1-facilitated fission is counterbalanced by atlastin-driven fusion, with the prevalence of Rtnl1 leading to ER fragmentation. Ectopic expression of Drosophila reticulon in COS-7 cells reveals individual fission events in dynamic ER tubules. Consistently, in vitro analyses show that reticulon produces velocity-dependent constriction of lipid nanotubes leading to stochastic fission via a hemifission mechanism. Fission occurs at elongation rates and pulling force ranges intrinsic to the ER, thus suggesting a principle whereby the dynamic balance between fusion and fission controlling organelle morphology depends on membrane motility.

Peroxins Pex30 and Pex29 Dynamically Associate with Reticulons to Regulate Peroxisome Biogenesis from the Endoplasmic Reticulum.

Project description:Peroxisome proliferation occurs by at least two routes, division of existing peroxisomes and de novo biogenesis from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The proteins and molecular mechanisms governing peroxisome emergence from the ER are poorly characterized. In this study, we report that two integral membrane peroxins (proteins required for peroxisome biogenesis) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pex29 and Pex30, reside in distinct regions of the ER and associate with Rtn1 and Yop1, reticulon family members that contribute to ER morphology, to govern peroxisome emergence from the ER. In vivo and in vitro analyses reveal that peroxisome proliferation is therefore not restricted to the peroxisome but begins at the level of the ER.

Reticulon proteins modulate autophagy of the endoplasmic reticulum in maize endosperm.

Project description:Reticulon (Rtn) proteins shape tubular domains of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and in some cases are autophagy receptors for selective ER turnover. We have found that maize Rtn1 and Rtn2 control ER homeostasis and autophagic flux in endosperm aleurone cells, where the ER accumulates lipid droplets and synthesizes storage protein accretions metabolized during germination. Maize Rtn1 and Rtn2 are expressed in the endosperm, localize to the ER, and re-model ER architecture in a dose-dependent manner. Rtn1 and Rtn2 interact with Atg8a using four Atg8-interacting motifs (AIMs) located at the C-terminus, cytoplasmic loop, and within the transmembrane segments. Binding between Rtn2 and Atg8 is elevated upon ER stress. Maize rtn2 mutants display increased autophagy and up-regulation of an ER stress-responsive chaperone. We propose that maize Rtn1 and Rtn2 act as receptors for autophagy-mediated ER turnover, and thus are critical for ER homeostasis and suppression of ER stress.

Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of a degron-containing polytopic membrane protein.

Project description:The presence of two basic amino acids strategically located within a single spanning transmembrane region has previously been shown to act as a signal for the endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation (ERAD) of several polypeptides. In contrast, the functionality of this degron motif within the context of a polytopic membrane protein has not been established. Using opsin as a model system, we have investigated the consequences of inserting the degron motif in the first of its seven transmembrane (TM) spans. Whilst these basic residue reduce the binding of the targeting factor, signal recognition particle, to the first TM span, this has no effect on membrane integration in vitro or in vivo. This most likely reflects the presence of multiple TM spans that can act as targeting signals within in the nascent opsin chain. We find that the degron motif leads to the efficient retention of mutant opsin chains at the endoplasmic reticulum. The mutant opsin polypeptides are degraded via a proteasomal pathway that involves the actions of the E3 ubiquitin ligase HRD1. In contrast, wild-type opsin remains stable for a prolonged period even when artificially accumulated at the endoplasmic reticulum. We conclude that a single dibasic degron motif is sufficient to initiate both the ER retention and subsequent degradation of ospin via an ERAD pathway.

The endoplasmic reticulum provides the membrane platform for biogenesis of the flavivirus replication complex.

Project description:The cytoplasmic replication of positive-sense RNA viruses is associated with a dramatic rearrangement of host cellular membranes. These virus-induced changes result in the induction of vesicular structures that envelop the virus replication complex (RC). In this study, we have extended our previous observations on the intracellular location of West Nile virus strain Kunjin virus (WNV(KUN)) to show that the virus-induced recruitment of host proteins and membrane appears to occur at a pre-Golgi step. To visualize the WNV(KUN) replication complex, we performed three-dimensional (3D) modeling on tomograms from WNV(KUN) replicon-transfected cells. These analyses have provided a 3D representation of the replication complex, revealing the open access of the replication complex with the cytoplasm and the fluidity of the complex to the rough endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, we provide data that indicate that a majority of the viral RNA species housed within the RC is in a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) form.

The endoplasmic reticulum and casein-containing vesicles contribute to milk fat globule membrane.

Project description:During lactation, mammary epithelial cells secrete huge amounts of milk from their apical side. The current view is that caseins are secreted by exocytosis, whereas milk fat globules are released by budding, enwrapped by the plasma membrane. Owing to the number and large size of milk fat globules, the membrane surface needed for their release might exceed that of the apical plasma membrane. A large-scale proteomics analysis of both cytoplasmic lipid droplets and secreted milk fat globule membranes was used to decipher the cellular origins of the milk fat globule membrane. Surprisingly, differential analysis of protein profiles of these two organelles strongly suggest that, in addition to the plasma membrane, the endoplasmic reticulum and the secretory vesicles contribute to the milk fat globule membrane. Analysis of membrane-associated and raft microdomain proteins reinforces this possibility and also points to a role for lipid rafts in milk product secretion. Our results provide evidence for a significant contribution of the endoplasmic reticulum to the milk fat globule membrane and a role for SNAREs in membrane dynamics during milk secretion. These novel aspects point to a more complex model for milk secretion than currently envisioned.
