Localization of the FK506-binding protein, FKBP 13, to the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum.

ABSTRACT: The function of the immunophilins, FKBP 12 and FKBP 13, which are binding proteins for the immunosuppressant drug FK506 and rapamycin, remains poorly defined, although it has been suggested that immunophilins and immunophilin-like proteins may play a role in protein sorting/folding and intracellular calcium ion regulation. As a first step towards understanding the function of FKBP 13, we studied its subcellular localization by immunoblotting of well-defined subcellular fractions from a canine pancreatic homogenate and immunocytochemical analysis of an overexpressed cloned cDNA for FKBP 13. Whereas FKBP 12 fractionated entirely into the cytosol, virtually all FKBP 13 was found in the rough microsomal fraction which consisted of highly purified rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER), along with several well-characterized ER markers [the immunoglobulin heavy-chain binding protein (BiP), grp 94 and ribophorin I]. Moreover, FKBP 13 co-banded with the ER markers on isopycnic sucrose gradients. By immunofluorescence, the overexpressed cDNA for FKBP 13 in Hela cells gave an ER-staining pattern highly similar to that of known ER proteins. Addition of the ligand FK506 did not appear to alter the distribution of FKBP 13. Separation of the ER luminal contents and membrane revealed FKBP 13 to be a luminal ER protein. Since the lumen of the ER is where the folding of membrane and secreted proteins occurs, as well as a major site of intracellular calcium storage, it seems possible that FKBP 13 may be involved in one of these functions.

Molecular cloning of a membrane-associated human FK506- and rapamycin-binding protein, FKBP-13.

Project description:The 12-kDa FK506-binding protein (FKBP-12) is a cytosolic receptor for the immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin. Here we report the molecular cloning and subcellular localization of a 13-kDa FKBP (FKBP-13), which has a 21-amino acid signal peptide and appears to be membrane-associated. Although no internal hydrophobic region, and thus no transmembrane domain, is apparent within the 120 amino acids of mature FKBP-13, a potential endoplasmic reticulum retention sequence (Arg-Thr-Glu-Leu) is found at its C terminus. FKBP-13 has 51% nucleotide sequence identity and 43% amino acid sequence identity to FKBP-12; the N-terminal sequences are divergent, but the 92-amino acid C-terminal sequence of FKBP-13 has 46 identical and 20 related residues when compared with FKBP-12. The conserved residues that comprise the drug binding site and rotamase active site of FKBP-12 are completely conserved in FKBP-13. Therefore, the three-dimensional structures of FKBP-12 and the FKBP-12/FK506 complex are likely to be excellent models of the corresponding FKBP-13 structure.

An improved reversibly dimerizing mutant of the FK506-binding protein FKBP.

Project description:FK506-binding protein (FKBP) is a monomer that binds to FK506, rapamycin, and related ligands. The F36M substitution, in which Phe36 in the ligand-binding pocket is changed to Met, leads to formation of antiparallel FKBP dimers, which can be dissociated into monomers by ligand binding. This FKBP(M) mutant has been employed in the mammalian secretory pathway to generate aggregates that can be dissolved by ligand addition to create cargo waves. However, when testing this approach in yeast, we found that dissolution of FKBP(M) aggregates was inefficient. An improved reversibly dimerizing FKBP formed aggregates that dissolved more readily. This FKBP(L,V) mutant carries the F36L mutation, which increases the affinity of ligand binding, and the I90V mutation, which accelerates ligand-induced dissociation of the dimers. The FKBP(L,V) mutant expands the utility of reversibly dimerizing FKBP.

Yeast FKBP-13 is a membrane-associated FK506-binding protein encoded by the nonessential gene FKB2.

Project description:The immunosuppressants FK506 and rapamycin prevent T-cell activation and also inhibit the growth of certain strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It has previously been shown that yeast contains a 12-kDa cytosolic FK506-binding protein (yFKBP-12), which also possesses peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase activity, and that fkb1 strains lacking yFKBP-12 are resistant to rapamycin and sensitive to FK506. The absence of yFKBP-12 permitted the detection and isolation of a second FK506- and rapamycin-binding protein, which is about 13 kDa in size (yFKBP-13) and membrane-associated. Purified yFKBP-13 binds FK506 with 15-fold lower affinity than yFKBP-12 and has peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase activity with a similar substrate profile. The sequence of the first 37 N-terminal amino acids was determined, and the yFKBP-13 gene (FKB2) was cloned and sequenced. A hydrophobic putative signal sequence precedes the N terminus of the mature protein. yFKBP-13 most closely resembles the membrane-associated human FKBP-13, which also possesses a signal peptide, whereas yFKBP-12 most closely resembles human FKBP-12. fkb2 and fkb1 fkb2 mutants are viable and unaltered in their sensitivity to FK506, suggesting that yeast possesses an additional target for this drug. Furthermore, fkb2 null mutations confer no change in rapamycin sensitivity. These findings show that yFKBP-13 and yFKBP-12 have distinct functions within the cell.

Enzyme-mediated proximity labeling identifies small RNAs in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen

Project description:In eukaryotic cells, the subcellular targeting of RNA controls many fundamental aspects of cellular physiology. RNA molecules are broadly distributed throughout the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm, but are conventionally believed to be excluded from the secretory pathway compartments, including the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recent discovery of RNA N-glycan modification (glycoRNAs) has challenged this view, but direct evidence of RNA localization in the ER lumen has been lacking. In this study, we applied enzyme-mediated proximity labeling to profile the ER lumen-localized RNAs in human embryonic kidney 293T cells and rat cortical neurons. Our dataset revealed the presence of small non-coding RNAs in the ER lumen, including U RNAs, sco/sca RNAs and Y RNAs, which partially overlap with glycoRNAs. These findings shed light on novel RNA targeting mechanism and raise interesting questions regarding the biological functions of ER lumenal RNAs.

Induction of the FK506-binding protein, FKBP13, under conditions which misfold proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:In order to determine whether the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) luminal FK506-binding protein, FKBP13, shares properties of ER molecular chaperones, MDCK cells were treated with either tunicamycin or Ca2+ ionophores. By Northern-blot analysis, tunicamycin resulted in a 2-fold rise in FKBP13 mRNA, whereas ionophores (A23187 and ionomycin) caused a more impressive rise in FKBP13 mRNA (up to 5-fold with ionomycin). Actinomycin D chase experiments in ionomycin-treated cells revealed no change in the half-life of FKBP13 mRNA, indicating that the increase in FKBP13 mRNA observed was not due to greater message stability. Moreover, sequencing of the 5' flanking region of the gene for murine FKBP13 revealed significant similarity to similar regions in human BiP (immunoglobulin-binding protein) and the human glucose-regulated protein grp94, including a 37 bp sequence in FKBP13 with approximately 50% identity with the unfolded protein response element of the BiP gene. Together, these data suggest a role for FKBP13 in ER protein folding.

Overexpression of HSF2 binding protein suppresses endoplasmic reticulum stress via regulating subcellular localization of CDC73 in hepatocytes.

Project description:BackgroundEndoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress plays an important role in the occurrence and development of various liver diseases. However, there are no effective prevention and treatment strategies. We aimed to determine the role of heat shock factor 2 binding protein (HSF2BP) in ER stress.MethodsHSF2BP expression in mice and cultured hepatocytes was measured during ER stress induced by tunicamycin, and its importance in ER stress was evaluated in hepatocyte-specific HSF2BP transgenic (TG) and knockout (KO) mice. The effects and mechanisms of HSF2BP on ER stress were further probed in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.ResultsHSF2BP expression was significantly upregulated during tunicamycin-induced ER stress in mice and cultured hepatocytes. Liver injury and ER stress were reduced in HSF2BP overexpressing mice after treating with tunicamycin, but were aggravated in HSF2BP knockout mice compared to the controls. In hepatic I/R injury, HSF2BP expression was significantly upregulated, and HSF2BP overexpressing mice had reduced liver injury and inflammation. These improvements were associated with ER stress inhibition. However, these results were reversed in hepatocyte-specific HSF2BP knockout mice. HSF2BP overexpression increased cytoplasmic CDC73 levels and inhibited the JNK signaling pathway. CDC73 knockdown using siRNA eliminated the protection exerted by HSF2BP overexpression in hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced ER stress in hepatocytes.ConclusionHSF2BP is a previously uncharacterized regulatory factor in ER stress-likely acts by regulating CDC73 subcellular localization. The feasibility of HSF2BP-targeted treatment in ER stress-related liver disease deserves future research.

Chicken FK506-binding protein, FKBP65, a member of the FKBP family of peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerases, is only partially inhibited by FK506.

Project description:The chicken FK506-binding protein FKBP65, a peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase, is a rough endoplasmic reticulum protein that contains four domains homologous to FKBP13, another rough endoplasmic reticulum PPIase. Analytical ultracentrifugation suggests that in FKBP65 these four domains are arranged in a linear extended structure with a length of about 26 nm and a diameter of about 3 nm. All four domains are therefore expected to be accessible to substrates. The specificity of FKBP65 towards a number of peptide substrates was determined. The specific activity of FKBP65 is generally lower than that of FKBP12 when expressed as a per domain activity. The substrate specificity of FKBP65 also differs from that of FKBP12. Inhibition studies show that only one of the four domains can be inhibited by FK506, a powerful inhibitor of all other known FKBPs. Furthermore, the same domain seems to be susceptible to inhibition by cyclosporin A. No other FKBPs were shown to be inhibited by cyclosporin A. It is also shown that FKBP65 can catalyse the re-folding of type III collagen in vitro with a kcat/Km = 4.3 x 10(3) M-1.s-1.

ATP increases within the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum upon intracellular Ca2+ release.

Project description:Multiple functions of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) essentially depend on ATP within this organelle. However, little is known about ER ATP dynamics and the regulation of ER ATP import. Here we describe real-time recordings of ER ATP fluxes in single cells using an ER-targeted, genetically encoded ATP sensor. In vitro experiments prove that the ATP sensor is both Ca(2+) and redox insensitive, which makes it possible to monitor Ca(2+)-coupled ER ATP dynamics specifically. The approach uncovers a cell type-specific regulation of ER ATP homeostasis in different cell types. Moreover, we show that intracellular Ca(2+) release is coupled to an increase of ATP within the ER. The Ca(2+)-coupled ER ATP increase is independent of the mode of Ca(2+) mobilization and controlled by the rate of ATP biosynthesis. Furthermore, the energy stress sensor, AMP-activated protein kinase, is essential for the ATP increase that occurs in response to Ca(2+) depletion of the organelle. Our data highlight a novel Ca(2+)-controlled process that supplies the ER with additional energy upon cell stimulation.

SDF2-like protein 1 (SDF2L1) regulates the endoplasmic reticulum localization and chaperone activity of ERdj3 protein.

Project description:Molecular chaperones facilitate protein folding by associating with nascent polypeptides, thereby preventing protein misfolding and aggregation. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone BiP, the sole HSP70 chaperone in the ER, is regulated by HSP40 chaperones, including ER-resident protein ERdj3 (DNAJB11). ERdj3 lacks an ER retrieval signal, is secreted under ER stress conditions, and functions as a chaperone in the extracellular space, but how its secretion is regulated remains unclear. We recently showed that ERdj3 forms a complex with ER-resident stromal cell-derived factor 2 (SDF2) and SDF2L1 (SDF2-like protein 1) and thereby prevents protein aggregation during the BiP chaperone cycle. However, the contribution of the ERdj3-SDF2L1 complex to protein quality control is poorly understood. Here, we analyzed the intracellular localization and chaperone activity of ERdj3 in complex with SDF2L1. We found that ERdj3 was retained in the ER by associating with SDF2/SDF2L1. In vitro analyses revealed that the ERdj3 dimer incorporated two SDF2L1 molecules; otherwise, ERdj3 alone formed a homotetramer. The ERdj3-SDF2L1 complex suppressed ER protein aggregation, and this suppression did not require substrate transfer to BiP. The ERdj3-SDF2L1 complex inhibited aggregation of denatured GSH S-transferase (GST) in vitro and maintained GST in a soluble oligomeric state. Both in cellulo and in vitro, the chaperone activities of the ERdj3-SDF2L1 complex were higher than those of ERdj3 alone. These findings suggest that, under normal conditions, ERdj3 functions as an ER chaperone in complex with SDF2/SDF2L1 but is secreted into the extracellular space when it cannot form this complex.

Characterization of the cellular localization of C4orf34 as a novel endoplasmic reticulum resident protein.

Project description:Human genome projects have enabled whole genome mapping and improved our understanding of the genes in humans. However, many unknown genes remain to be functionally characterized. In this study, we characterized human chromosome 4 open reading frame 34 gene (hC4orf34). hC4orf34 was highly conserved from invertebrate to mammalian cells and ubiquitously expressed in the organs of mice, including the heart and brain. Interestingly, hC4orf34 is a novel ER-resident, type I transmembrane protein. Mutant analysis showed that the transmembrane domain (TMD) of hC4orf34 was involved in ER retention. Overall, our results indicate that hC4orf34 is an ER-resident type I transmembrane protein, and might play a role in ER functions including Ca2+ homeostasis and ER stress.
