The PQ-loop protein Any1 segregates Drs2 and Neo1 functions required for viability and plasma membrane phospholipid asymmetry.

ABSTRACT: Membrane asymmetry is a key organizational feature of the plasma membrane. Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) are phospholipid flippases that establish membrane asymmetry by translocating phospholipids, such as phosphatidylserine (PS) and phospatidylethanolamine, from the exofacial leaflet to the cytosolic leaflet. Saccharomyces cerevisiae expresses five P4-ATPases: Drs2, Neo1, Dnf1, Dnf2, and Dnf3. The inactivation of Neo1 is lethal, suggesting Neo1 mediates an essential function not exerted by the other P4-ATPases. However, the disruption of ANY1, which encodes a PQ-loop membrane protein, allows the growth of neo1? and reveals functional redundancy between Golgi-localized Neo1 and Drs2. Here we show Drs2 PS flippase activity is required to support neo1? any1? viability. Additionally, a Dnf1 variant with enhanced PS flipping ability can replace Drs2 and Neo1 function in any1? cells. any1? also suppresses drs2? growth defects but not the loss of membrane asymmetry. Any1 overexpression perturbs the growth of cells but does not disrupt membrane asymmetry. Any1 coimmunoprecipitates with Neo1, an association prevented by the Any1-inactivating mutation D84G. These results indicate a critical role for PS flippase activity in Golgi membranes to sustain viability and suggests Any1 regulates Golgi membrane remodeling through protein-protein interactions rather than a previously proposed scramblase activity.

Project description:BackgroundApoptosis in atherosclerotic lesions contributes to plaque vulnerability by lipid core enlargement and fibrous cap attenuation. Apoptosis is associated with exteriorization of phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) on the cell membrane. Although PS-avid radiolabeled annexin-V has been employed for molecular imaging of high-risk plaques, PE-targeted imaging in atherosclerosis has not been studied.ObjectivesThis study sought to evaluate the feasibility of molecular imaging with PE-avid radiolabeled duramycin in experimental atherosclerotic lesions in a rabbit model and compare duramycin targeting with radiolabeled annexin-V.MethodsOf the 27 rabbits, 21 were fed high-cholesterol, high-fat diet for 16 weeks. Nine of the 21 rabbits received 99mTc-duramycin (test group), 6 received 99mTc-linear duramycin (duramycin without PE-binding capability, negative radiotracer control group), and 6 received 99mTc-annexin-V for radionuclide imaging. The remaining normal chow-fed 6 animals (disease control group) received 99mTc-duramycin. In vivo microSPECT/microCT imaging was performed, and the aortas were explanted for ex vivo imaging and for histological characterization of atherosclerosis.ResultsA significantly higher duramycin uptake was observed in the test group compared with that of disease control and negative radiotracer control animals; duramycin uptake was also significantly higher than the annexin-V uptake. Quantitative duramycin uptake, represented as the square root of percent injected dose per cm (√ID/cm) of abdominal aorta was >2-fold higher in atherosclerotic lesions in test group (0.08 ± 0.01%) than in comparable regions of disease control animals (0.039 ± 0.0061%, p = 3.70·10-8). Mean annexin uptake (0.060 ± 0.010%) was significantly lower than duramycin (p = 0.001). Duramycin uptake corresponded to the lesion severity and macrophage burden. The radiation burden to the kidneys was substantially lower with duramycin (0.49% ID/g) than annexin (5.48% ID/g; p = 4.00·10-4).ConclusionsRadiolabeled duramycin localizes in lipid-rich areas with high concentration of apoptotic macrophages in the experimental atherosclerosis model. Duramycin uptake in atherosclerotic lesions was significantly greater than annexin-V uptake and produced significantly lower radiation burden to nontarget organs.

Project description:It remains unclear whether plasma phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) is involved in hyper-coagulation or hypo-coagulation. This study investigated the direct effect of PLTP on platelet aggregation and the underlying mechanism. Washed platelets from humans or mice and mouse platelet-rich plasma and human recombinant PLTP were isolated. PLTP is present in human platelets. We assessed adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-, collagen- and thrombin-induced platelet aggregation, phosphatidylserine externalization and photothrombosis-induced cerebral infarction in mice. PLTP over-expression increased platelet aggregation, while PLTP deficiency had the opposing reaction. Human recombinant PLTP increased both mouse and human platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent manner. Phosphatidylserine externalization provides a water/lipid surface for the interaction of coagulation factors, which accelerates thrombosis. Compared with wild-type controls, platelets from PLTP transgenic mice had significantly more phosphatidylserine on the exterior surface of the plasma membrane, whereas platelets from PLTP-deficient mice had significantly less phosphatidylserine on the surface, thus PLTP influences fibrinogen binding on the plasma membrane. Moreover, recombinant PLTP together with ADP significantly increased phosphatidylserine exposure on the plasma membrane of PLTP-deficient platelets, thereby increasing fibrinogen binding. PLTP over-expression significantly accelerated the incidence of photothrombosis-induced infarction in mice, whereas PLTP deficiency significantly reduced the frequency of infarction. We concluded that PLTP promotes phosphatidylserine externalization at the plasma membrane of platelets and accelerates ADP- or collagen-induced platelet aggregation. This effect plays an important role in the initiation of thrombin generation and platelet aggregation under sheer stress conditions. Thus, PLTP is involved in hyper-coagulation. Therefore, PLTP inhibition could be a novel approach for countering thrombosis.
