Annexin A2 at the interface between F-actin and membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5,-bisphosphate.

ABSTRACT: Vesicle rocketing has been used as a model system for understanding the dynamics of the membrane-associated F-actin cytoskeleton, but in many experimental systems is induced by persistent, non-physiological stimuli. Localised changes in the concentration of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) in membranes stimulate the recruitment of actin-remodelling proteins to their sites of action, regulate their activity and favour vesicle rocketing. The calcium and anionic phospholipid-binding protein annexin A2 is necessary for macropinocytic rocketing and has been shown to bind both PI(4,5)P2 and the barbed-ends of F-actin filaments. Here we show that annexin A2 localises to the comet tails which form constitutively in fibroblasts from patients with Lowe Syndrome. These fibroblasts are deficient in OCRL1, a phosphatidylinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase with specificity for PI(4,5)P2. We show that upon depletion of annexin A2 from these cells vesicle rocketing is reduced, and that this is also dependent upon PI(4,5)P2 formation. Annexin A2 co-localised with comet-tails induced by pervanadate and hyperosmotic shock in a basophilic cell line, and in an epithelial cell line upon activation of PKC. In vitro annexin A2 promoted comet formation in a bead-rocketing assay and was sufficient to link F-actin filaments to PI(4,5)P2 containing vesicles. These observations are consistent with a role for annexin A2 as an actin nucleator on PI(4,5)P2-enriched membranes.

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis directs actin remodeling during phagocytosis.

Project description:The Rho GTPases play a critical role in initiating actin polymerization during phagocytosis. In contrast, the factors directing the disassembly of F-actin required for fission of the phagocytic vacuole are ill defined. We used fluorescent chimeric proteins to monitor the dynamics of association of actin and active Cdc42 and Rac1 with the forming phagosome. Although actin was found to disappear from the base of the forming phagosome before sealing was complete, Rac1/Cdc42 activity persisted, suggesting that termination of GTPase activity is not the main determinant of actin disassembly. Furthermore, fully internalized phagosomes engineered to associate constitutively with active Rac1 showed little associated F-actin. The disappearance of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)) from the phagosomal membrane closely paralleled the course of actin disassembly. Furthermore, inhibition of PI(4,5)P(2) hydrolysis or increased PI(4,5)P(2) generation by overexpression of phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase I prevented the actin disassembly necessary for the completion of phagocytosis. These observations suggest that hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P(2) dictates the remodeling of actin necessary for completion of phagocytosis.

Cooperative binding of annexin A2 to cholesterol- and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate-containing bilayers.

Project description:Biological membranes are organized into dynamic microdomains that serve as sites for signal transduction and membrane trafficking. The formation and expansion of these microdomains are driven by intrinsic properties of membrane lipids and integral as well as membrane-associated proteins. Annexin A2 (AnxA2) is a peripherally associated membrane protein that can support microdomain formation in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner and has been implicated in membrane transport processes. Here, we performed a quantitative analysis of the binding of AnxA2 to solid supported membranes containing the annexin binding lipids phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylserine in different compositions. We show that the binding is of high specificity and affinity with dissociation constants ranging between 22.1 and 32.2 nM. We also analyzed binding parameters of a heterotetrameric complex of AnxA2 with its S100A10 protein ligand and show that this complex has a higher affinity for the same membranes with Kd values of 12 to 16.4 nM. Interestingly, binding of the monomeric AnxA2 and the AnxA2-S100A10 complex are characterized by positive cooperativity. This cooperative binding is mediated by the conserved C-terminal annexin core domain of the protein and requires the presence of cholesterol. Together our results reveal for the first time, to our knowledge, that AnxA2 and its derivatives bind cooperatively to membranes containing cholesterol, phosphatidylserine, and/or phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate, thus providing a mechanistic model for the lipid clustering activity of AnxA2.

Lateral distribution of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate in membranes regulates formin- and ARP2/3-mediated actin nucleation.

Project description:Spatial and temporal control of actin polymerization is fundamental for many cellular processes, including cell migration, division, vesicle trafficking, and response to agonists. Many actin-regulatory proteins interact with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) and are either activated or inactivated by local PI(4,5)P2 concentrations that form transiently at the cytoplasmic face of cell membranes. The molecular mechanisms of these interactions and how the dozens of PI(4,5)P2-sensitive actin-binding proteins are selectively recruited to membrane PI(4,5)P2 pools remains undefined. Using a combination of biochemical, imaging, and cell biologic studies, combined with molecular dynamics and analytical theory, we test the hypothesis that the lateral distribution of PI(4,5)P2 within lipid membranes and native plasma membranes alters the capacity of PI(4,5)P2 to nucleate actin assembly in brain and neutrophil extracts and show that activities of formins and the Arp2/3 complex respond to PI(4,5)P2 lateral distribution. Simulations and analytical theory show that cholesterol promotes the cooperative interaction of formins with multiple PI(4,5)P2 headgroups in the membrane to initiate actin nucleation. Masking PI(4,5)P2 with neomycin or disrupting PI(4,5)P2 domains in the plasma membrane by removing cholesterol decreases the ability of these membranes to nucleate actin assembly in cytoplasmic extracts.

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate is enriched in granulovacuolar degeneration bodies and neurofibrillary tangles.

Project description:AIMS: Among the pathological findings in Alzheimer's disease (AD), the temporal and spatial profiles of granulovacuolar degeneration (GVD) bodies are characteristic in that they seem to be related to those of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), suggesting a common mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of these structures. Flotillin-1, a marker of lipid rafts, accumulates in lysosomes of tangle-bearing neurones in AD patients. In addition, recent reports have shown that GVD bodies accumulate at the nexus of the autophagic and endocytic pathways. The aim of this study was to elucidate the distribution of the lipid component of lipid rafts, phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2], in AD and other neurodegenerative disorders. METHODS: We compared PtdIns(4,5)P2 immunoreactivity in the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex and neocortex of five AD cases, 17 cases of other neurodegenerative disorders and four controls. In addition, we performed double staining using markers of GVD, NFTs and lipid rafts for further characterization. RESULTS: Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that PtdIns(4,5)P2 was selectively enriched in GVD bodies and NFTs. Although immunoreactivity for PtdIns(4,5)P2 was also evident in NFTs composed of hyperphosphorylated tau, PtdIns(4,5)P2 was segregated from phosphorylated tau within NFTs by double immunofluorescence staining. In contrast, PtdIns(4,5)P2 colocalized with the lipid raft markers flotillin-1 and annexin 2, within GVD bodies and NFTs. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that lipid raft components including PtdIns(4,5)P2 play a role in the formation of both GVD bodies and NFTs.

Clustering of syntaxin-1A in model membranes is modulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and cholesterol.

Project description:Syntaxin-1A is part of the SNARE complex that forms in membrane fusion in neuronal exocytosis of synaptic vesicles. Together with SNAP-25 the single-span transmembrane protein syntaxin-1A forms the receptor complex on the plasma membrane of neuroendocrine cells. Previous studies have shown that syntaxin-1A occurs in clusters that are different from lipid rafts in neuroendocrine plasma membranes. However, the interactions that promote these clusters have been largely unexplored. Here, we have reconstituted syntaxin-1A into lipid model membranes, and we show that syntaxin cluster formation depends on cholesterol in a lipid system that lacks sphingomyelin and therefore does not form liquid-ordered phases that are commonly believed to represent lipid rafts in cell membranes. Rather, the cholesterol-induced clustering of syntaxin is found to be reversed by as little as 1-5 mol % of the regulatory lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI-4,5-P(2)), and PI-4,5-P(2) is shown to bind electrostatically to syntaxin, presumably mediated by the highly positively charged juxtamembrane domain of syntaxin. Possible implications of these results to the regulation of SNARE-mediated membrane fusion are discussed.

HIV-1 matrix organizes as a hexamer of trimers on membranes containing phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate.

Project description:The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) matrix (MA) protein represents the N-terminal domain of the HIV-1 precursor Gag (PrGag) protein and carries an N-terminal myristate (Myr) group. HIV-1 MA fosters PrGag membrane binding, as well as assembly of envelope (Env) proteins into virus particles, and recent studies have shown that HIV-1 MA preferentially directs virus assembly at plasma membrane sites enriched in cholesterol and phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PI[4,5]P(2)). To characterize the membrane binding of MA and PrGag proteins, we have examined how Myr-MA proteins, and proteins composed of Myr-MA and its neighbor Gag capsid (CA) protein associate on membranes containing cholesterol and PI[4,5]P(2). Our results indicate that Myr-MA assembles as a hexamer of trimers on such membranes, and imply that MA trimers interconnect CA hexamer rings in immature virus particles. Our observations suggest a model for the organization of PrGag proteins, and for MA-Env protein interactions.

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate optical uncaging potentiates exocytosis.

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] is essential for exocytosis. Classical ways of manipulating PI(4,5)P2 levels are slower than its metabolism, making it difficult to distinguish effects of PI(4,5)P2 from those of its metabolites. We developed a membrane-permeant, photoactivatable PI(4,5)P2, which is loaded into cells in an inactive form and activated by light, allowing sub-second increases in PI(4,5)P2 levels. By combining this compound with electrophysiological measurements in mouse adrenal chromaffin cells, we show that PI(4,5)P2 uncaging potentiates exocytosis and identify synaptotagmin-1 (the Ca2+ sensor for exocytosis) and Munc13-2 (a vesicle priming protein) as the relevant effector proteins. PI(4,5)P2 activation of exocytosis did not depend on the PI(4,5)P2-binding CAPS-proteins, suggesting that PI(4,5)P2 uncaging may bypass CAPS-function. Finally, PI(4,5)P2 uncaging triggered the rapid fusion of a subset of readily-releasable vesicles, revealing a rapid role of PI(4,5)P2 in fusion triggering. Thus, optical uncaging of signaling lipids can uncover their rapid effects on cellular processes and identify lipid effectors.

COMMD1 forms oligomeric complexes targeted to the endocytic membranes via specific interactions with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate.

Project description:Copper metabolism Murr1 domain 1 (COMMD1) is a 21-kDa protein involved in copper export from the liver, NF-kappaB signaling, HIV infection, and sodium transport. The precise function of COMMD and the mechanism through which COMMD1 performs its multiple roles are not understood. Recombinant COMMD1 is a soluble protein, yet in cells COMMD1 is largely seen as targeted to cellular membranes. Using co-localization with organelle markers and cell fractionation, we determined that COMMD1 is located in the vesicles of the endocytic pathway, whereas little COMMD1 is detected in either the trans-Golgi network or lysosomes. The mechanism of COMMD1 recruitment to cell membranes was investigated using lipid-spotted arrays and liposomes. COMMD1 specifically binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) in the absence of other proteins and does not bind structural lipids; the phosphorylation of PtdIns at position 4 is essential for COMMD1 binding. Proteolytic sensitivity and molecular modeling experiments identified two distinct domains in the structure of COMMD1. The C-terminal domain appears sufficient for lipid binding, because both the full-length and C-terminal domain proteins bind to PtdIns(4,5)P2. In native conditions, endogenous COMMD1 forms large oligomeric complexes both in the cytosol and at the membrane; interaction with PtdIns(4,5)P2 increases the stability of oligomers. Altogether, our results suggest that COMMD1 is a scaffold protein in a distinct sub-compartment of endocytic pathway and offer first clues to its role as a regulator of structurally unrelated membrane transporters.

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate regulates SNARE-dependent membrane fusion.

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI 4,5-P(2)) on the plasma membrane is essential for vesicle exocytosis but its role in membrane fusion has not been determined. Here, we quantify the concentration of PI 4,5-P(2) as approximately 6 mol% in the cytoplasmic leaflet of plasma membrane microdomains at sites of docked vesicles. At this concentration of PI 4,5-P(2) soluble NSF attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-dependent liposome fusion is inhibited. Inhibition by PI 4,5-P(2) likely results from its intrinsic positive curvature-promoting properties that inhibit formation of high negative curvature membrane fusion intermediates. Mutation of juxtamembrane basic residues in the plasma membrane SNARE syntaxin-1 increase inhibition by PI 4,5-P(2), suggesting that syntaxin sequesters PI 4,5-P(2) to alleviate inhibition. To define an essential rather than inhibitory role for PI 4,5-P(2), we test a PI 4,5-P(2)-binding priming factor required for vesicle exocytosis. Ca(2+)-dependent activator protein for secretion promotes increased rates of SNARE-dependent fusion that are PI 4,5-P(2) dependent. These results indicate that PI 4,5-P(2) regulates fusion both as a fusion restraint that syntaxin-1 alleviates and as an essential cofactor that recruits protein priming factors to facilitate SNARE-dependent fusion.

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and Arf6-regulated membrane traffic.

Project description:ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) 6 regulates the movement of membrane between the plasma membrane (PM) and a nonclathrin-derived endosomal compartment and activates phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP 5-kinase), an enzyme that generates phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Here, we show that PIP2 visualized by expressing a fusion protein of the pleckstrin homology domain from PLCdelta and green fluorescent protein (PH-GFP), colocalized with Arf6 at the PM and on tubular endosomal structures. Activation of Arf6 by expression of its exchange factor EFA6 stimulated protrusion formation, the uptake of PM into macropinosomes enriched in PIP2, and recycling of this membrane back to the PM. By contrast, expression of Arf6 Q67L, a GTP hydrolysis-resistant mutant, induced the formation of PIP2-positive actin-coated vacuoles that were unable to recycle membrane back to the PM. PM proteins, such as beta1-integrin, plakoglobin, and major histocompatibility complex class I, that normally traffic through the Arf6 endosomal compartment became trapped in this vacuolar compartment. Overexpression of human PIP 5-kinase alpha mimicked the effects seen with Arf6 Q67L. These results demonstrate that PIP 5-kinase activity and PIP2 turnover controlled by activation and inactivation of Arf6 is critical for trafficking through the Arf6 PM-endosomal recycling pathway.
