MAP1B-LC1 prevents autophagosome formation by linking syntaxin 17 to microtubules.

ABSTRACT: In fed cells, syntaxin 17 (Stx17) is associated with microtubules at the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface and promotes mitochondrial fission by determining the localization and function of the mitochondrial fission factor Drp1. Upon starvation, Stx17 dissociates from microtubules and Drp1, and binds to Atg14L, a subunit of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, to facilitate phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate production and thereby autophagosome formation, but the mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains unknown. Here we identify MAP1B-LC1 (microtubule-associated protein 1B-light chain 1) as a critical regulator of Stx17 function. Depletion of MAP1B-LC1 causes Stx17-dependent autophagosome accumulation even under nutrient-rich conditions, whereas its overexpression blocks starvation-induced autophagosome formation. MAP1B-LC1 links microtubules and Stx17 in fed cells, and starvation causes the dephosphorylation of MAP1B-LC1 at Thr217, allowing Stx17 to dissociate from MAP1B-LC1 and bind to Atg14L. Our results reveal the mechanism by which Stx17 changes its binding partners in response to nutrient status.

Project description:The fusion of autophagosomes and endosomes/lysosomes, also called autophagosome maturation, ensures the degradation of autophagic cargoes. It is an important regulatory step of the macroautophagy/autophagy process. STX17 is the key autophagosomal SNARE protein that mediates autophagosome maturation. Here, we report that the acetylation of STX17 regulates its SNARE activity and autophagic degradation. The histone acetyltransferase CREBBP/CBP and the deacetylase HDAC2 specifically regulate the acetylation of STX17. In response to cell starvation and MTORC1 inhibition, the inactivation of CREBBP leads to the deacetylation of STX17 at its SNARE domain. This deacetylation promotes the interaction between STX17 and SNAP29 and the formation of the STX17-SNAP29-VAMP8 SNARE complex with no effect on the recruitment of STX17 to autophagosomal membranes. Deacetylation of STX17 also enhances the interaction between STX17 and the tethering complex HOPS, thereby further promoting autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Our study suggests a mechanism by which acetylation regulates the late-stage of autophagy, and possibly other STX17-related intracellular membrane fusion events.Abbreviations: ACTB: actin beta; CREBBP/CBP: CREB binding protein; Ctrl: control; GFP: green fluorescent protein; GST: glutathione S-transferase; HDAC: histone deacetylase; HOPS: homotypic fusion and protein sorting complex; KO: knockout; LAMP1/2: lysosomal associated membrane protein 1/2; MAP1LC3/LC3: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3; MEFs: mouse embryonic fibroblasts; MS: mass spectrometry; MTORC1: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase complex 1; NAM: nicotinamide; PtdIns3K: phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; RFP: red fluorescent protein; SNAP29: synaptosome associated protein 29; SNARE: soluble N-ethylamide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1; STX17: syntaxin 17; TSA: trichostatin A; TSC1/2: TSC complex subunit 1/2; VAMP8: vesicle associated membrane protein 8; WT: wild type.
