Inhibition of hsc70-catalysed clathrin uncoating by HSJ1 proteins.

ABSTRACT: The uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles can be mediated in vitro by the 'uncoating ATPase' that has been identified as the constitutive 70 kDa heat shock protein (hsp70), hsc70. It is now established that the activity of hsp70 proteins can be regulated by another family of molecular chaperones, the DnaJ family. In this study, we have investigated the effects of DnaJ-like proteins (the human neuron-specific proteins HSJ1a and HSJ1b) on clathrin uncoating. In order to measure the kinetics of clathrin release from coated vesicles, we have developed a quantitative, two-site ELISA for clathrin triskelions and demonstrated that stoichiometric amounts of HSJ1 proteins inhibit the initial burst of hsc70-mediated clathrin uncoating by over 40%. This inhibition is not a consequence of ADP binding by hsc70 or the aggregation of hsc70, but correlates with an increase in the hsc70 associated with the coated vesicle fraction, suggesting that the inhibition is a consequence of a non-productive stabilization of hsc70 with a component of the coated vesicle fraction. These results strongly suggest that HSJ1 proteins interfere with an endogenous DnaJ-like protein that is involved in uncoating. Recent evidence suggests that the brain-specific vesicle-associated protein auxilin could play such a role. Although we find no evidence for auxilin in our coated vesicle preparation, our results predict that an auxilin-like protein will be a general factor in clathrin uncoating.

Single-molecule analysis of a molecular disassemblase reveals the mechanism of Hsc70-driven clathrin uncoating.

Project description:Heat shock cognate protein-70 (Hsc70) supports remodeling of protein complexes, such as disassembly of clathrin coats on endocytic coated vesicles. To understand how a simple ATP-driven molecular clamp catalyzes a large-scale disassembly reaction, we have used single-particle fluorescence imaging to track the dynamics of Hsc70 and its clathrin substrate in real time. Hsc70 accumulates to a critical level, determined by kinetic modeling to be one Hsc70 for every two functional attachment sites; rapid, all-or-none uncoating then ensues. We propose that Hsc70 traps conformational distortions, seen previously by cryo-EM, in the vicinity of each occupied site and that accumulation of local strains destabilizes the clathrin lattice. Capture of conformational fluctuations may be a general mechanism for chaperone-driven disassembly of protein complexes.

Structure of clathrin coat with bound Hsc70 and auxilin: mechanism of Hsc70-facilitated disassembly.

Project description:The chaperone Hsc70 drives the clathrin assembly-disassembly cycle forward by stimulating dissociation of a clathrin lattice. A J-domain containing co-chaperone, auxilin, associates with a freshly budded clathrin-coated vesicle, or with an in vitro assembled clathrin coat, and recruits Hsc70 to its specific heavy-chain-binding site. We have determined by electron cryomicroscopy (cryoEM), at about 11 A resolution, the structure of a clathrin coat (in the D6-barrel form) with specifically bound Hsc70 and auxilin. The Hsc70 binds a previously analysed site near the C-terminus of the heavy chain, with a stoichiometry of about one per three-fold vertex. Its binding is accompanied by a distortion of the clathrin lattice, detected by a change in the axial ratio of the D6 barrel. We propose that when Hsc70, recruited to a position close to its target by the auxilin J-domain, splits ATP, it clamps firmly onto its heavy-chain site and locks in place a transient fluctuation. Accumulation of the local strain thus imposed at multiple vertices can then lead to disassembly.

Endocytosis and clathrin-uncoating defects at synapses of auxilin knockout mice.

Project description:Neuronally expressed auxilin and ubiquitously expressed cyclin-G-dependent kinase (GAK) are homologous proteins that act as cochaperones to support the Hsc70-dependent clathrin uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles. GAK was previously shown to be essential in mouse during embryonic development and in the adult. We have now engineered an auxilin knockout mouse. Mutant mice had a high rate of early postnatal mortality and surviving pups generally had a lower body weight than wild-type pups, although they had a normal life span. GAK was up-regulated as much as 3-fold in the brains of both surviving neonates and adult mutant mice. An increased number of clathrin-coated vesicles and empty cages were present at knockout synapses both in situ and in primary neuronal cultures. Additionally, clathrin-mediated endocytosis of synaptic vesicles in knockout hippocampal neurons was impaired, most likely due to sequestration of coat components in assembled coats and cages. Collectively, our results demonstrate the specialized role of auxilin in the recycling of synaptic vesicles at synapses, but also show that its function can be partially compensated for by up-regulation of GAK.

Hsc70-induced changes in clathrin-auxilin cage structure suggest a role for clathrin light chains in cage disassembly.

Project description:The molecular chaperone, Hsc70, together with its co-factor, auxilin, facilitates the ATP-dependent removal of clathrin during clathrin-mediated endocytosis in cells. We have used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the 3D structure of a complex of clathrin, auxilin(401-910) and Hsc70 at pH 6 in the presence of ATP, frozen within 20 seconds of adding Hsc70 in order to visualize events that follow the binding of Hsc70 to clathrin and auxilin before clathrin disassembly. In this map, we observe density beneath the vertex of the cage that we attribute to bound Hsc70. This density emerges asymmetrically from the clathrin vertex, suggesting preferential binding by Hsc70 for one of the three possible sites at the vertex. Statistical comparison with a map of whole auxilin and clathrin previously published by us reveals the location of statistically significant differences which implicate involvement of clathrin light chains in structural rearrangements which occur after Hsc70 is recruited. Clathrin disassembly assays using light scattering suggest that loss of clathrin light chains reduces the efficiency with which auxilin facilitates this reaction. These data support a regulatory role for clathrin light chains in clathrin disassembly in addition to their established role in regulating clathrin assembly.

A new role of anterograde motor Kif5b in facilitating large clathrin-coated vesicle mediated endocytosis via regulating clathrin uncoating.

Project description:Kif5b-driven anterograde transport and clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) are responsible for opposite intracellular trafficking, contributing to plasma membrane homeostasis. However, whether and how the two trafficking processes coordinate remain unclear. Here, we show that Kif5b directly interacts with clathrin heavy chain (CHC) at a region close to that for uncoating catalyst (Hsc70) and preferentially localizes on relatively large clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). Uncoating in vitro is decreased for CCVs from the cortex of kif5b conditional knockout (mutant) mouse and facilitated by adding Kif5b fragments containing CHC-binding site, while cell peripheral distribution of CHC or Hsc70 keeps unaffected by Kif5b depletion. Furthermore, cellular entry of vesicular stomatitis virus that internalizes into large CCV is inhibited by Kif5b depletion or introducing a dominant-negative Kif5b fragment. These findings showed a new role of Kif5b in regulating large CCV-mediated CME via affecting CCV uncoating, indicating Kif5b as a molecular knot connecting anterograde transport to CME.

A burst of auxilin recruitment determines the onset of clathrin-coated vesicle uncoating.

Project description:Clathrin-coated pits assemble on a membrane and pinch off as coated vesicles. The released vesicles then rapidly lose their clathrin coats in a process mediated by the ATPase Hsc70, recruited by auxilin, a J-domain-containing cofactor. How is the uncoating process regulated? We find that during coat assembly small and variable amounts of auxilin are recruited transiently but that a much larger burst of association occurs after the peak of dynamin signal, during the transition between membrane constriction and vesicle budding. We show that the auxilin burst depends on domains of the protein likely to interact with lipid head groups. We conclude that the timing of auxilin recruitment determines the onset of uncoating. We propose that, when a diffusion barrier is established at the constricting neck of a fully formed coated pit and immediately after vesicle budding, accumulation of a specific lipid can recruit sufficient auxilin molecules to trigger uncoating.

Differential regulation of synaptic AP-2/clathrin vesicle uncoating in synaptic plasticity.

Project description:AP-1/?1B-deficiency causes X-linked intellectual disability. AP-1/?1B -/- mice have impaired synaptic vesicle recycling, fewer synaptic vesicles and enhanced endosome maturation mediated by AP-1/?1A. Despite defects in synaptic vesicle recycling synapses contain two times more endocytic AP-2 clathrin-coated vesicles. We demonstrate increased formation of two classes of AP-2/clathrin coated vesicles. One which uncoats readily and a second with a stabilised clathrin coat. Coat stabilisation is mediated by three molecular mechanisms: reduced recruitment of Hsc70 and synaptojanin1 and enhanced ?2/AP-2 phosphorylation and activation. Stabilised AP-2 vesicles are enriched in the structural active zone proteins Git1 and stonin2 and synapses contain more Git1. Endocytosis of the synaptic vesicle exocytosis regulating Munc13 isoforms are differentially effected. Regulation of synaptic protein endocytosis by the differential stability of AP-2/clathrin coats is a novel molecular mechanism of synaptic plasticity.

Coordinated regulation of AP2 uncoating from clathrin-coated vesicles by rab5 and hRME-6.

Project description:Here we investigate the role of rab5 and its cognate exchange factors rabex-5 and hRME-6 in the regulation of AP2 uncoating from endocytic clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). In vitro, we show that the rate of AP2 uncoating from CCVs is dependent on the level of functional rab5. In vivo, overexpression of dominant-negative rab5(S34N), or small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated depletion of hRME-6, but not rabex-5, resulted in increased steady-state levels of AP2 associated with endocytic vesicles, which is consistent with reduced uncoating efficiency. hRME-6 guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity requires hRME-6 binding to alpha-adaptin ear, which displaces the ear-associated mu2 kinase AAK1. siRNA-mediated depletion of hRME-6 increases phospho-mu2 levels, and expression of a phosphomimetic mu2 mutant increases levels of endocytic vesicle-associated AP2. Depletion of hRME-6 or rab5(S35N) expression also increases the levels of phosphoinositide 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) associated with endocytic vesicles. These data are consistent with a model in which hRME-6 and rab5 regulate AP2 uncoating in vivo by coordinately regulating mu2 dephosphorylation and PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels in CCVs.

Dissection of Swa2p/auxilin domain requirements for cochaperoning Hsp70 clathrin-uncoating activity in vivo.

Project description:The auxilin family of J-domain proteins load Hsp70 onto clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) to drive uncoating. In vitro, auxilin function requires its ability to bind clathrin and stimulate Hsp70 ATPase activity via its J-domain. To test these requirements in vivo, we performed a mutational analysis of Swa2p, the yeast auxilin ortholog. Swa2p is a modular protein with three N-terminal clathrin-binding (CB) motifs, a ubiquitin association (UBA) domain, a tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain, and a C-terminal J-domain. In vitro, clathrin binding is mediated by multiple weak interactions, but a Swa2p truncation lacking two CB motifs and the UBA domain retains nearly full function in vivo. Deletion of all CB motifs strongly abrogates clathrin disassembly but does not eliminate Swa2p function in vivo. Surprisingly, mutation of the invariant HPD motif within the J-domain to AAA only partially affects Swa2p function. Similarly, a TPR point mutation (G388R) causes a modest phenotype. However, Swa2p function is abolished when these TPR and J mutations are combined. The TPR and J-domains are not functionally redundant because deletion of either domain renders Swa2p nonfunctional. These data suggest that the TPR and J-domains collaborate in a bipartite interaction with Hsp70 to regulate its activity in clathrin disassembly.

Brain clathrin and clathrin-associated proteins.

Project description:The assembly of clathrin into baskets or cages in vitro may depend on formation of complex between clathrin and a polypeptide doublet migrating in the 30000-mol.wt. region. Clathrin with several associated proteins was isolated from coated-vesicle fractions of bovine cerebral cortex. Most associated proteins were separated by Sepharose 4B column chromatograhy. The eluted clathrin retained only the 30000-mol.wt. doublet and assembled into baskets at pH 6.5. Limited proteolysis of coated vesicles or clathrin assembled as baskets removed these clathrin-associated proteins (CAPs) without detectably altering clathrin. Enzyme-treated clathrin assembled into open-lattice structures but no longer formed baskets in vitro. Latex particles with bound enzyme cleaved the CAPs from coated vesicles and clathrin baskets, suggesting that the CAPs protrude from the exterior of the clathrin lattice.
