Characterization of a novel phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate-binding protein containing two FYVE fingers in tandem that is targeted to the Golgi.

ABSTRACT: We have identified a novel protein of predicted molecular mass 40 kDa that contains two FYVE domains in tandem and has therefore been named TAFF1 (TAndem FYVE Fingers-1). The protein is expressed predominantly in heart and binds to PtdIns3P specifically, even though the FYVE domains in TAFF1 lacks the first Arg of the consensus sequence R(K/R)HHCR, critical for the PtdIns3P binding of other FYVE domains identified so far. The first Arg is replaced by a Thr and Ser in the N-terminal and C-terminal FYVE domains of TAFF1 respectively. Mutational analysis indicates that both FYVE domains are required for high affinity binding to PtdIns3P. Cell localization studies using a green fluorescent protein fusion show that TAFF1 is localized to the Golgi, and that the Golgi targeting sequence is located within the N-terminal 187 residues and not in either FYVE domain.

The oxysterol binding protein Kes1p regulates Golgi apparatus phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate function.

Project description:The Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylinositol transfer protein Sec14p is required for Golgi apparatus-derived vesicular transport through coordinate regulation of phospholipid metabolism. Sec14p is normally essential. The essential requirement for SEC14 can be bypassed by inactivation of (i) the CDP-choline pathway for phosphatidylcholine synthesis or (ii) KES1, which encodes an oxysterol binding protein. A unique screen was used to determine genome-wide genetic interactions for the essential gene SEC14 and to assess whether the two modes of "sec14 bypass" were similar or distinct. The results indicate that inactivation of the CDP-choline pathway allows cells with inactivated SEC14 to live through a mechanism distinct from that of inactivation of KES1. We go on to demonstrate an important biological function of Kes1p. Kes1p regulates Golgi apparatus-derived vesicular transport by inhibiting the function of Pik1p-generated Golgi apparatus phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI-4P). Kes1p affects both the availability and level of Golgi apparatus PI-4P. A set of potential PI-4P-responsive proteins that include the Rab GTPase Ypt31p and its GTP exchange factor are described.

A novel probe for phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate reveals multiple pools beyond the Golgi.

Project description:Polyphosphoinositides are an important class of lipid that recruit specific effector proteins to organelle membranes. One member, phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) has been localized to Golgi membranes based on the distribution of lipid binding modules from PtdIns4P effector proteins. However, these probes may be biased by additional interactions with other Golgi-specific determinants. In this paper, we derive a new PtdIns4P biosensor using the PtdIns4P binding of SidM (P4M) domain of the secreted effector protein SidM from the bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila. PtdIns4P was necessary and sufficient for localization of P4M, which revealed pools of the lipid associated not only with the Golgi but also with the plasma membrane and Rab7-positive late endosomes/lysosomes. PtdIns4P distribution was determined by the localization and activities of both its anabolic and catabolic enzymes. Therefore, P4M reports a wider cellular distribution of PtdIns4P than previous probes and therefore will be valuable for dissecting the biological functions of PtdIns4P in its assorted membrane compartments.

Depletion of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate at the Golgi translocates K-Ras to mitochondria.

Project description:Ras proteins are small GTPases localized to the plasma membrane (PM), which regulate cellular proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation. After a series of post-translational modifications, H-Ras and N-Ras traffic to the PM from the Golgi via the classical exocytic pathway, but the exact mechanism of K-Ras trafficking to the PM from the ER is not fully characterized. ATP5G1 (also known as ATP5MC1) is one of the three proteins that comprise subunit c of the F0 complex of the mitochondrial ATP synthase. In this study, we show that overexpression of the mitochondrial targeting sequence of ATP5G1 perturbs glucose metabolism, inhibits oncogenic K-Ras signaling, and redistributes phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) to mitochondria and other endomembranes, resulting in K-Ras translocation to mitochondria. Also, it depletes phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) at the Golgi. Glucose supplementation restores PtdSer and K-Ras PM localization and PI4P at the Golgi. We further show that inhibition of the Golgi-localized PI4-kinases (PI4Ks) translocates K-Ras, and PtdSer to mitochondria and endomembranes, respectively. We conclude that PI4P at the Golgi regulates the PM localization of PtdSer and K-Ras.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Study of Legionella Effector Domains Revealed Novel and Prevalent Phosphatidylinositol 3-Phosphate Binding Domains.

Project description:Legionella pneumophila and other Legionella species replicate intracellularly using the Icm/Dot type IV secretion system. In L. pneumophila this system translocates >300 effectors into host cells and in the Legionella genus thousands of effectors were identified, the function of most of which is unknown. Fourteen L. pneumophila effectors were previously shown to specifically bind phosphoinositides (PIs) using dedicated domains. We found that PI-binding domains of effectors are usually not homologous to one another; they are relatively small and located at the effectors' C termini. We used the previously identified Legionella effector domains (LEDs) with unknown function and the above characteristics of effector PI-binding domains to discover novel PI-binding LEDs. We identified three predicted PI-binding LEDs that are present in 14 L. pneumophila effectors and in >200 effectors in the Legionella genus. Using an in vitro protein-lipid overlay assay, we found that 11 of these L. pneumophila effectors specifically bind phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), almost doubling the number of L. pneumophila effectors known to bind PIs. Further, we identified in each of these newly discovered PI3P-binding LEDs conserved, mainly positively charged, amino acids that are essential for PI3P binding. Our results indicate that Legionella effectors harbor unique domains, shared by many effectors, which directly mediate PI3P binding.

Spatial regulation of Golgi phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate is required for enzyme localization and glycosylation fidelity.

Project description:The enrichment of phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI(4)P) at the trans Golgi network (TGN) is instrumental for proper protein and lipid sorting, yet how the restricted distribution of PI(4)P is achieved remains unknown. Here, we show that lipid phosphatase Suppressor of actin mutations 1 (SAC1) is crucial for the spatial regulation of Golgi PI(4)P. Ultrastructural analysis revealed that SAC1 is predominantly located at cisternal Golgi membranes but is absent from the TGN, thus confining PI(4)P to the TGN. RNAi-mediated knockdown of SAC1 caused changes in Golgi morphology and mislocalization of Golgi enzymes. Enzymes involved in glycan processing such as mannosidase-II (Man-II) and N-acetylglucosamine transferase-I (GnT-I) redistributed to aberrant intracellular structures and to the cell surface in SAC1 knockdown cells. SAC1 depletion also induced a unique pattern of Golgi-specific defects in N-and O-linked glycosylation. These results indicate that SAC1 organizes PI(4)P distribution between the Golgi complex and the TGN, which is instrumental for resident enzyme partitioning and Golgi morphology.

G protein ?? subunits regulate cardiomyocyte hypertrophy through a perinuclear Golgi phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate hydrolysis pathway.

Project description:We recently identified a novel GPCR-dependent pathway for regulation of cardiac hypertrophy that depends on Golgi phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) hydrolysis by a specific isoform of phospholipase C (PLC), PLC?, at the nuclear envelope. How stimuli are transmitted from cell surface GPCRs to activation of perinuclear PLC? is not clear. Here we tested the role of G protein ?? subunits. G?? inhibition blocked ET-1-stimulated Golgi PI4P depletion in neonatal and adult ventricular myocytes. Blocking G?? at the Golgi inhibited ET-1-dependent PI4P depletion and nuclear PKD activation. Translocation of G?? to the Golgi stimulated perinuclear Golgi PI4P depletion and nuclear PKD activation. Finally, blocking G?? at the Golgi or PM blocked ET-1-dependent cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. These data indicate that G?? regulation of the perinuclear Golgi PI4P pathway and a separate pathway at the PM is required for ET-1-stimulated hypertrophy, and the efficacy of G?? inhibition in preventing heart failure maybe due in part to its blocking both these pathways.

Two isotypes of phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate-binding sorting nexins play distinct roles in trogocytosis in Entamoeba histolytica.

Project description:Phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PIPs) function as important second messengers in many cellular events. In the human intestinal protist Entamoeba histolytica, where phagocytosis/trogocytosis plays an indispensable role in proliferation and pathophysiology during infection, various PIPs are involved in multiple steps of phago/trogocytosis. PI3-phosphate (PI3P) plays a pivotal role in the biogenesis of phagosome/trogosomes via recruitment of PI3P effectors. Because no known PI3P downstream effectors are conserved in E. histolytica, we exploited a unique method to identify the proteins PI3P dependently recruited to phagosomes. We rationalised that overexpression of PI3P-binding GFP-HrsFYVE competes for PI3P on phagosomal membranes and results in dissociation of PI3P effectors from phagosomes. EhVps26 and EhVps35, but not sorting nexins (SNXs), of the retromer complex were detected from phagosomes only without GFP-HrsFYVE overexpression. Two potential SNXs, EhSNX1 and EhSNX2, identified in the genome, possess only phox homology domain and specifically bound to PI3P, but retromer components, EhVps26 and EhVps35, did not bind to PI3P. Live and immunofluorescence imaging showed that EhSNX1 was recruited to the trogocytic cup and tunnel-like structures, and subsequently, EhSNX2 was recruited to trogosomes. Furthermore, EhSNX1, but not EhSNX2, specifically bound to Arp2/3 and EhVps26, which were localised to the tunnel-like structures and the trogosomes, respectively. EhSNX2 gene silencing increased trogocytosis, suggesting that EhSNX2 plays an inhibitory role in trogocytosis.

Histones cause aggregation and fusion of lipid vesicles containing phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate.

Project description:In a previous article, we demonstrated that histones (H1 or histone octamers) interact with negatively charged bilayers and induce extensive aggregation of vesicles containing phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PIP) and, to a lesser extent, vesicles containing phosphatidylinositol (PI). Here, we found that vesicles containing PIP, but not those containing PI, can undergo fusion induced by histones. Fusion was demonstrated through the observation of intervesicular mixing of total lipids and inner monolayer lipids, and by ultrastructural and confocal microscopy studies. Moreover, in both PI- and PIP-containing vesicles, histones caused permeabilization and release of vesicular aqueous contents, but the leakage mechanism was different (all-or-none for PI and graded release for PIP vesicles). These results indicate that histones could play a role in the remodeling of the nuclear envelope that takes place during the mitotic cycle.

Structural, thermodynamic, and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate binding properties of Phafin2.

Project description:Phafin2 is a phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) binding protein involved in the regulation of endosomal cargo trafficking and lysosomal induction of autophagy. Binding of Phafin2 to PtdIns(3)P is mediated by both its PH and FYVE domains. However, there are no studies on the structural basis, conformational stability, and lipid interactions of Phafin2 to better understand how this protein participates in signaling at the surface of endomembrane compartments. Here, we show that human Phafin2 is a moderately elongated monomer of ∼28 kDa with an intensity-average hydrodynamic diameter of ∼7 nm. Circular dichroism (CD) analysis indicates that Phafin2 exhibits an α/β structure and predicts ∼40% random coil content in the protein. Heteronuclear NMR data indicates that a unique conformation of Phafin2 is present in solution and dispersion of resonances suggests that the protein exhibits random coiled regions, in agreement with the CD data. Phafin2 is stable, displaying a melting temperature of 48.4°C. The folding-unfolding curves, obtained using urea- and guanidine hydrochloride-mediated denaturation, indicate that Phafin2 undergoes a two-state native-to-denatured transition. Analysis of these transitions shows that the free energy change for urea- and guanidine hydrochloride-induced Phafin2 denaturation in water is ∼4 kcal mol-1 . PtdIns(3)P binding to Phafin2 occurs with high affinity, triggering minor conformational changes in the protein. Taken together, these studies represent a platform for establishing the structural basis of Phafin2 molecular interactions and the role of the two potentially redundant PtdIns(3)P-binding domains of the protein in endomembrane compartments.

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate regulate phagolysosome biogenesis.

Project description:Professional phagocytic cells ingest microbial intruders by engulfing them into phagosomes, which subsequently mature into microbicidal phagolysosomes. Phagosome maturation requires sequential fusion of the phagosome with early endosomes, late endosomes, and lysosomes. Although various phosphoinositides (PIPs) have been detected on phagosomes, it remained unclear which PIPs actually govern phagosome maturation. Here, we analyzed the involvement of PIPs in fusion of phagosomes with various endocytic compartments and identified phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate [PI(4)P], phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P], and the lipid kinases that generate these PIPs, as mediators of phagosome-lysosome fusion. Phagosome-early endosome fusion required PI(3)P, yet did not depend on PI(4)P. Thus, PI(3)P regulates phagosome maturation at early and late stages, whereas PI(4)P is selectively required late in the pathway.
