ARF6 bi-directionally regulates the dendritic spine formation depending on neuronal maturation and activity

ABSTRACT: Recent studies reported contradictory results regarding the role of ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6), a small GTPase known to regulate actin cytoskeleton, in dendritic spine development and maintenance. We readdress this question, and found that ARF6 either positively or negatively regulates dendritic spine formation depending on neuronal maturation and activity. ARF6 activation facilitates filopodia to spines transition, increasing the spine formation in developing neurons while it decreases spine density in matured neurons. Consistently, genome-wide microarray analysis revealed that Arf6 activation in developing and matured neurons leads to opposite expression patterns of a subset of genes that are involved in neuronal morphology.

Project description:Mind bomb 1 (Mib1) is an E3 ubiquitin-ligase that is essential for overall metazoan development, including multiple stages of neuronal development. It is located in puncta throughout neurons, including near post synaptic densities (PSD), and has been shown to participate in several signaling pathways via its E3 ligase catalytic activity. The most well-characterized of these is the Notch signaling pathway, in which Mib1 facilitates Delta/Serrate/LAG-2 (DSL) ligand endocytosis and activation, allowing cell-cell communication to determine neuronal versus glial cell fate. This, however, is not the limit of Mib1 activity in the developing nervous system, as it also contributes to cell polarity, neurite outgrowth, and long-term potentiation (LTP), but it has not been demonstrated to affect dendritic spine development. We therefore sought to comprehensively characterize the Mib1 interactome and study its potential function in dendritic spine morphogenesis. We utilized a novel sequential elution method from Mib1 affinity purification to recover Mib1 binding proteins with both deep coverage and the ability to distinguish between high affinity binding partners from low affinity binding partners. This procedure revealed 837 potential binding partners, distinguished 72 from these as very-high confidence, and a further 387 as high confidence of interaction. Included in these were many proteins previously demonstrated to interact with Mib1, as well as 5 proteins of particular interest to us: Usp9x, a deubiquitinase; alpha-, beta-, and delta-catenins; regulators of Wnt signaling; and CDKL5, which is mutated in EIEE2, a severe form of mental retardation. We demonstrated that Mib1 downregulates CDKL5, limits its effects on dendritic spine outgrowth, and inhibits spine outgrowth itself. These data further elaborate upon the signaling networks and biological functions influenced by this critical protein and expand our understanding of the signaling networks involved in neuronal development.
