Evidence for distinct substrate specificities of importin alpha family members in nuclear protein import. (1/50)

Importin alpha plays a pivotal role in the classical nuclear protein import pathway. Importin alpha shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm, binds nuclear localization signal-bearing proteins, and functions as an adapter to access the importin beta-dependent import pathway. In contrast to what is found for importin beta, several isoforms of importin alpha, which can be grouped into three subfamilies, exist in higher eucaryotes. We describe here a novel member of the human family, importin alpha7. To analyze specific functions of the distinct importin alpha proteins, we recombinantly expressed and purified five human importin alpha's along with importin alpha from Xenopus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Binding affinity studies showed that all importin alpha proteins from humans or Xenopus bind their import receptor (importin beta) and their export receptor (CAS) with only marginal differences. Using an in vitro import assay based on permeabilized HeLa cells, we compared the import substrate specificities of the various importin alpha proteins. When the substrates were tested singly, only the import of RCC1 showed a strong preference for one family member, importin alpha3, whereas most of the other substrates were imported by all importin alpha proteins with similar efficiencies. However, strikingly different substrate preferences of the various importin alpha proteins were revealed when two substrates were offered simultaneously.  (+info)

Recycling of importin alpha from the nucleus is suppressed by loss of RCC1 function in living mammalian cells. (2/50)

We previously reported that the nuclear import of substrates containing SV40 T antigen nuclear localization signal (NLS) was suppressed in a temperature-sensitive RCC1 mutant cell line, tsBN2, at nonpermissive temperature. Moreover, it was shown that import into wild type BHK21 cell-derived nuclei gradually decreased in heterokaryons between the tsBN2 and BHK21 cells, although the BHK21 nuclei retained wild type RCC1 and should contain RanGTP (Tachibana et al., 1994). In this study, it was found that in the heterokaryons cultured at non-permissive temperature, endogenous importin alpha was not detected immunocytochemically in the cytoplasm or BHK21 nuclei but only in the tsBN2 nuclei, suggesting that importin alpha cannot be exported from the RCC1-depleted nuclei. In fact, importin alpha microinjected into the nucleus of tsBN2 cells at non-permissive temperature remained in the nucleus. These results strongly support the hypothesis that the recycling of importin alpha from the nucleus requires nuclear RanGTP. Moreover, it was found that cytoplasmic injection of importin alpha restored the import of SV40 T-NLS substrates in the BHK21 nuclei but not the tsBN2 nuclei in the heterokaryons. This indicates that the decrease of importin alpha from the cytoplasm in the heterokaryons leads to a suppression of the efficiency of nuclear import of the T-NLS substrate and provides support for the view that nuclear RanGTP is essential for the nuclear entry of the substrates.  (+info)

Nup50, a nucleoplasmically oriented nucleoporin with a role in nuclear protein export. (3/50)

We present here a detailed analysis of a rat polypeptide termed Nup50 (formerly NPAP60) that was previously found to be associated with the nuclear pore complex (F. Fan et al., Genomics 40:444-453, 1997). We have found that Nup50 (and/or a related 70-kDa polypeptide) is present in numerous rat cells and tissues. By immunofluorescence microscopy, Nup50 was found to be highly concentrated at the nuclear envelope of rat liver nuclei, whereas in cultured NRK cells it also is abundant in intranuclear regions. On the basis of immunogold electron microscopy of both rat liver nuclear envelopes and NRK cells, we determined that Nup50 is specifically localized in the nucleoplasmic fibrils of the pore complex. Microinjection of anti-Nup50 antibodies into the nucleus of NRK cells resulted in strong inhibition of nuclear export of a protein containing a leucine-rich nuclear export sequence, whereas nuclear import of a protein containing a classical nuclear localization sequence was unaffected. Correspondingly, CRM1, the export receptor for leucine-rich export sequences, directly bound to a fragment of Nup50 in vitro, whereas several other import and export receptors did not significantly interact with this fragment. Taken together, our data indicate that Nup50 has a direct role in nuclear protein export and probably serves as a binding site on the nuclear side of the pore complex for export receptor-cargo complexes.  (+info)

G(i)-mediated Cas tyrosine phosphorylation in vascular endothelial cells stimulated with sphingosine 1-phosphate: possible involvement in cell motility enhancement in cooperation with Rho-mediated pathways. (4/50)

Since blood platelets release sphingosine 1-phosphate (Sph-1-P) upon activation, it is important to examine the effects of this bioactive lipid on vascular endothelial cell functions from the viewpoint of platelet-endothelial cell interactions. In the present study, we examined Sph-1-P-stimulated signaling pathways related to human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) motility, with a special emphasis on the cytoskeletal docking protein Crk-associated substrate (Cas). Sph-1-P stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of Cas, which was inhibited by the G(i) inactivator pertussis toxin but not by the Rho inactivator C3 exoenzyme or the Rho kinase inhibitor Y-27632. Fyn constitutively associated with and phosphorylated Cas, suggesting that Cas tyrosine phosphorylation may be catalyzed by Fyn. Furthermore, upon HUVEC stimulation with Sph-1-P, Crk, through its SH2 domain, interacted with tyrosine-phosphorylated Cas, and the Cas-Crk complex translocated to the cell periphery (membrane ruffles), through mediation of G(i) (Fyn) but not Rho. In contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase, and formation of stress fibers and focal adhesion were mediated by Rho but not G(i) (Fyn). Finally, Sph-1-P-enhanced HUVEC motility, assessed by a phagokinetic assay using gold sol-coated plates and a Boyden's chamber assay, was markedly inhibited not only by pertussis toxin (or the Fyn kinase inhibitor PP2) but also by C3 exoenzyme (or Y-27632). In HUVECs stimulated with Sph-1-P, these data suggest the following: (i) cytoskeletal signalings may be separable into G(i)-mediated signaling pathways (involving Cas) and Rho-mediated ones (involving FAK), and (ii) coordinated signalings from both pathways are required for Sph-1-P-enhanced HUVEC motility. Since HUVECs reportedly express the Sph-1-P receptors EDG-1 (coupled with G(i)) and EDG-3 (coupled with G(13) and G(q)) and the EDG-3 antagonist suramin was found to block specifically Rho-mediated responses, it is likely that Cas-related responses following G(i) activation originate from EDG-1, whereas Rho-related responses originate from EDG-3.  (+info)

Identification of residues in the N-terminal domain of the Yersinia tyrosine phosphatase that are critical for substrate recognition. (5/50)

YopH is a 468-amino acid protein-tyrosine phosphatase that is produced by pathogenic Yersinia species. YopH is translocated into host mammalian cells via a type III protein secretion system. Translocation of YopH into human epithelial cells results in dephosphorylation of p130(Cas) and paxillin, disruption of focal adhesions, and inhibition of integrin-mediated bacterial phagocytosis. Previous studies have shown that the N-terminal 129 amino acids of YopH comprise a bifunctional domain. This domain binds to the SycH chaperone in Yersinia to orchestrate translocation and to tyrosine-phosphorylated target proteins in host cells to mediate substrate recognition. We used random mutagenesis in combination with the yeast two-hybrid system to identify residues in the YopH N-terminal domain that are involved in substrate-binding activity. Four single codon changes (Q11R, V31G, A33D, and N34D) were identified that interfered with binding of the YopH N-terminal domain to tyrosine-phosphorylated p130(Cas) but not to SycH. These mutations did not impair YopH translocation into HeLa cells infected with Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. Introduction of the V31G substitution into catalytically inactive (substrate-trapping) forms of YopH interfered with the ability of these proteins to bind to p130(Cas) and to localize to focal adhesions in HeLa cells. In addition, the V31G substitution reduced the ability of catalytically active YopH to dephosphorylate target proteins in HeLa cells. These data indicate that the substrate- and SycH-binding activities of the YopH N-terminal domain can be separated and that the former activity is important for recognition and dephosphorylation of substrates by YopH in vivo.  (+info)

Cse1l is essential for early embryonic growth and development. (6/50)

The CSE1L gene, the human homologue of the yeast chromosome segregation gene CSE1, is a nuclear transport factor that plays a role in proliferation as well as in apoptosis. CSE1 and CSE1L are essential genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mammalian cells, as shown by conditional yeast mutants and mammalian cell culture experiments with antisense-mediated depletion of CSE1L. To analyze whether CSE1L is also essential in vivo and whether its absence can be compensated for by other genes or mechanisms, we have cloned the murine CSE1L gene (Cse1l) and analyzed its tissue- and development-specific expression: Cse1l was detected at embryonic day 7.0 (E7.0), E11.0, E15.0, and E17.0, and in adults, high expression was observed in proliferating tissues. Subsequently, we inactivated the Cse1l gene in embryonic stem cells to generate heterozygous and homozygous knockout mice. Mice heterozygous for Cse1l appear normal and are fertile. However, no homozygous pups were born after interbreeding of heterozygous mice. In 30 heterozygote interbreeding experiments, 50 Cse1l wild-type mice and 100 heterozygotes were born but no animal with both Cse1l alleles deleted was born. Embryo analyses showed that homozygous mutant embryos were already disorganized and degenerated by E5.5. This implicates with high significance (P < 0.0001, Pearson chi-square test) an embryonically lethal phenotype of homozygous murine CSE1 deficiency and suggests that Cse1l plays a critical role in early embryonic development.  (+info)

Functions of the adapter protein Cas: signal convergence and the determination of cellular responses. (7/50)

Since Cas was first identified as a highly phosphorylated 130 kilodalton protein that associated with the v-Src and v-Crk-oncoproteins, considerable effort has been made to determine its function. Its predicted role as a scaffolding molecule based on its domain structure has been largely confirmed. Through its ability to undergo rapid changes in phosphorylation, subcellular localization and association with heterologous proteins, Cas may spatially and temporally regulate the function of its binding partners. Numerous proteins have been identified that bind to Cas in vitro and/or in vivo, but in only a few cases is there an understanding of how Cas may function in these protein complexes. To date, Cas-Crk and Cas-Src complexes have been most frequently implicated in Cas function, particularly in regards to processes involving regulation of the actin cytoskeleton and proliferation. These and other Cas protein complexes contribute to the critical role of Cas in cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and survival of normal cycling cells. However, under conditions in which these processes are deregulated, Cas appears to play a role in oncogenic transformation and perhaps metastasis. Therefore, in its capacity as an adapter protein, Cas serves as a point of convergence for many distinct signaling inputs, ultimately contributing to the generation of specific cellular responses.  (+info)

Characterization of the nuclear export signal of polypyrimidine tract-binding protein. (8/50)

The polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTB) is a nuclear protein that regulates alternative splicing. In addition, it plays a role in the cytoplasm during infection by some viruses and functions as a positive effector of hepatitis B virus RNA export. Thus, it presumably contains a nuclear export signal (NES). Using a heterokaryon export assay in transfected cultured cells, we have shown that the N-terminal 25 amino acid residues of PTB function as an autonomous NES, with residues 11-16 being important for its activity. Unlike the heteronuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 NES, this NES is separable from the nuclear localization signal, which spans the entire N-terminal 60 residues of PTB. The PTB NES cannot be shown to bind to CAS or Crm1, cellular receptors known to export proteins from the nucleus, and it functions in the presence of leptomycin B, a specific inhibitor of Crm1-dependent export. PTB deleted of its NES, unlike wild type PTB, does not stimulate the export of hepatitis B virus RNA. Therefore, the PTB NES is a functionally important domain of this multifunctional protein that utilizes an unknown export receptor.  (+info)
