Coatomer Interaction with Di-Lysine Endoplasmic Reticulum Retention Motifs

Abstract: Although signals for retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) have been identified in the cytoplasmic domain of various ER-resident type I transmembrane proteins, the mechanisms responsible for ER retention are still unknown. Yeast and mammalian ER retention motifs interacted specifically in cell lysates with the coatomer, a polypeptide complex implicated in membrane traffic. Mutations that affect the ER retention capacity of the motifs also abolished binding of the coatomer. These results suggest a role fo… Show more

“…GST fusions in which the lysines were mutated to serines were used as controls. These experiments used whole cell extracts from cells grown at 24°C, and the high salt/0.5% Triton X-100 binding conditions described by Cosson and Letourneur (1994). We analyzed extracts from the mutants sec27 -95, sec27⌬1-285, ret1-1, and ret1⌬1-285, and from wild-type cells.…”

“…This di-lysine motif is necessary and sufficient to target reporter proteins into the retrograde pathway in vivo, and coatomer can directly interact with such motifs in vitro (Jackson et al, 1993;Gaynor et al, 1994;Cosson and Letourneur, 1994;Schrö der-Kohne et al, 1998). Using reporter proteins tagged with variants of di-lysine motifs, it has been previously demonstrated clearly that small changes in the local sequence context of the lysines can dramatically alter the signal strength of the di-lysine motif and thus generate a broad spectrum of trafficking phenotypes (Zerangue et al, 2001).…”

“…GST-pull down experiments were carried out as described (Cosson and Letourneur, 1994), but yeast cells were lysed in PBS, 10 mM EDTA, 0.5% Triton, protease inhibitor cocktail, and PMSF. For binding to ubiquitin-sepharose, 50 l ubiquitin-sepharose (Sigma) was incubated with 20 g recombinant protein for 4 h, and washed in TBST as described (Aguilar et al, 2003).…”

“…Both proteins have a type I transmembrane topology, and a stretch of about 200 amino acids in their luminal domain shows 19-24% identity to leguminous lectins. Their short cytoplasmic domains contain related sorting signals that are likely to interact with cytoplasmic coats, either coatomer or clathrin adaptors (Cosson and Letourneur, 1994;Letourneur et al, 1994;Itin et al, 1995a,b). The two proteins are differently distributed in the endomembrane system.…”
