Domain IV of Annexin A5 Is Critical for Binding Calcium and Guarantees Its Maximum Binding to the Phosphatidylserine Membrane.

ABSTRACT: Background: Although domain IV of annexin A5 (anxA5) may be less effective in binding phosphatidylserine (PS), the four domains together may guarantee the maximum binding of anxA5 to the PS membrane. Additionally, previous research has shown that annexin mutants lacking one or more domain(s) have different biological activities compared to the wild-type. The present research mainly aims to study the role of domain IV in the crucial PS-binding function of anxA5. Methods: The domain IV-truncated anxA5 protein was constructed and purified. Isothermal titration calorimetry, flow cytometry and activated partial thromboplastin time were adopted to examine the function of domain IV in anxA5-PS binding directly or indirectly. Results: The domain IV-truncated form of anxA5 is impaired in binding PS liposome and apoptotic cells, and anticoagulation activity. The mutant cannot bind calcium, but binds PS only in the presence of calcium. Conclusions: Truncation of domain IV of anxA5 destroys its calcium-binding ability and impairs its PS-binding activity. Truncation of domain IV may induce conformation change of anxA5 or reduce the hydrophobic interactions between protein and membrane, which may explain the decrease of PS-binding affinity of the mutant.

Project description:Annexin A5 (ANXA5), which is known as a protein with anticoagulative function, may play a role in triglyceride biosynthesis. Triglycerides are involved in lipid and energy metabolism, which are important in the elucidation of obesity. To investigate the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ANXA5 and obesity in a Korean population, 372 participants (213 overweight/obese individuals and 159 control subjects) were enrolled from the Kyung Hee University Medical Center and Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center. The genotypes of five SNPs (rs12510548, rs4240260, rs3756281, rs13136094 and rs6534313) were evaluated in ANXA5 using the multiple logistic regression analysis with the codominant 1, codominant 2, dominant, recessive and log-additive models. The genotype and allele frequencies of the five investigated SNPs exhibited significant differences between the control and the overweight/obese groups: rs12510548 (P=0.004 in the codominant 2 model, P=0.0019 in the recessive model, P=0.027 in the log-additive model and P=0.026 in allele frequencies); rs4240260 (P=0.002 and Fisher's exact P=0.0006 in the codominant 2 model, P=0.0007 and Fisher's exact P=0.0007 in the recessive model, P=0.020 and Fisher's exact P=0.0019 in the log-additive model and P=0.020 in allele frequencies); rs3756281 (P=0.016 in the codominant 2 model and P=0.0094 in the recessive model); rs13136094 (P=0.0030 and Fisher's exact P=0.0011 in the codominant 2 model, P=0.0012 and Fisher's exact P=0.0013 in the recessive model, P=0.034 and Fisher's exact P=0.0035 in the log-additive model and P=0.024 in allele frequencies); and rs6534313 (P=0.0010 and Fisher's exact P=0.0003 in the codominant 2 model, P=0.0003 and Fisher's exact P=0.0003 in the recessive model, P=0.0075 and Fisher's exact P=0.0010 in the log-additive model and P=0.005 in allele frequencies). Two haplotypes were weakly associated with obesity (GGATG, P=0.037 and CAGCC, P=0.020). Results of the present study suggested that ANXA5 may be associated with the development of obesity in a Korean population.
