BAG3 Regulation of RAB35 Mediates the Endosomal Sorting Complexes Required for Transport/Endolysosome Pathway and Tau Clearance. Biol Psychiatry 2022; 92:10-24. [PMID: 35000752 PMCID: PMC9085972 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2021.10.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2021] [Revised: 10/12/2021] [Accepted: 10/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Declining proteostasis with aging contributes to increased susceptibility to neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Emerging studies implicate impairment of the endosome-lysosome pathway as a significant factor in the pathogenesis of these diseases. Previously, we demonstrated that BAG3 regulates phosphorylated tau clearance. However, we did not fully define how BAG3 regulates endogenous tau proteostasis, especially in the early stages of disease progression. METHODS Mass spectrometric analyses were performed to identify neuronal BAG3 interactors. Multiple biochemical assays were used to investigate the BAG3-HSP70-TBC1D10B (EPI64B)-RAB35-HRS regulatory networks. Live-cell imaging was used to study the dynamics of the endosomal pathway. Immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting were performed in human AD brains and in P301S tau transgenic mice with BAG3 overexpressed. RESULTS The primary group of neuronal BAG3 interactors identified are involved in the endocytic pathway. Among them were key regulators of small GTPases, such as the RAB35 GTPase-activating protein TBC1D10B. We demonstrated that a BAG3-HSP70-TBC1D10B complex attenuates the ability of TBC1D10B to inactivate RAB35. Thus, BAG3 interacts with TBC1D10B to support the activation of RAB35 and recruitment of HRS, initiating endosomal sorting complex required for transport-mediated endosomal tau clearance. Furthermore, TBC1D10B shows significantly less colocalization with BAG3 in AD brains than in age-matched controls. Overexpression of BAG3 in P301S tau transgenic mice increased the colocalization of phosphorylated tau with the endosomal sorting complex required for transport III protein CHMP2B and reduced the levels of the mutant human tau. CONCLUSIONS We identified a novel BAG3-TBC1D10B-RAB35 regulatory axis that modulates endosomal sorting complex required for transport-dependent protein degradation machinery and tau clearance. Dysregulation of BAG3 could contribute to the pathogenesis of AD.

Mitochondrial calcium uniporter promotes phagocytosis-dependent activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:e2123247119.

Abstract
Mitochondria, a highly metabolically active organelle, have been shown to play an essential role in regulating innate immune function. Mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake via the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU) is an essential process regulating mitochondrial metabolism by targeting key enzymes involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). Accumulative evidence suggests MCU-dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling may bridge the metabolic reprogramming and regulation of immune cell function. However, the mechanism by which MCU regulates inflammation and its related disease remains elusive. Here we report a critical role of MCU in promoting phagocytosis-dependent activation of NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich repeat containing family, pyrin domain-containing 3) inflammasome by inhibiting phagolysosomal membrane repair. Myeloid deletion of MCU (McuΔmye) resulted in an attenuated phagolysosomal rupture, leading to decreased caspase-1 cleavage and interleukin (IL)-1β release, in response to silica or alum challenge. In contrast, other inflammasome agonists such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), nigericin, poly(dA:dT), and flagellin induced normal IL-1β release in McuΔmye macrophages. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that decreased NLRP3 inflammasome activation in McuΔmye macrophages was caused by improved phagolysosomal membrane repair mediated by ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport)-III complex. Furthermore, McuΔmye mice showed a pronounced decrease in immune cell recruitment and IL-1β production in alum-induced peritonitis, a typical IL-1-dependent inflammation model. In sum, our results identify a function of MCU in promoting phagocytosis-dependent NLRP3 inflammatory response via an ESCRT-mediated phagolysosomal membrane repair mechanism.

Abstract
In plants, introgression of genetic resistance is a proven strategy for developing new resistant lines. While host proteins involved in genome replication and cell to cell movement are widely studied, other cell mechanisms responsible for virus infection remain under investigated. Endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) play a key role in membrane trafficking in plants and are involved in the replication of several plant RNA viruses. In this work, we describe the role of the ESCRT protein CmVPS4 as a new susceptibility factor to the Potyvirus Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV) in melon. Using a worldwide collection of melons, we identified three different alleles carrying non-synonymous substitutions in CmVps4. Two of these alleles were shown to be associated with WMV resistance. Using a complementation approach, we demonstrated that resistance is due to a single non-synonymous substitution in the allele CmVps4P30R. This work opens up new avenues of research on a new family of host factors required for virus infection and new targets for resistance.

Disruption of Endosomal Sorting in Schwann Cells Leads to Defective Myelination and Endosomal Abnormalities Observed in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease. J Neurosci 2022; 42:5085-5101. [PMID: 35589390 PMCID: PMC9233440 DOI: 10.1523/jneurosci.2481-21.2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2021] [Revised: 04/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Endosomal sorting plays a fundamental role in directing neural development. By altering the temporal and spatial distribution of membrane receptors, endosomes regulate signaling pathways that control the differentiation and function of neural cells. Several genes linked to inherited demyelinating peripheral neuropathies, known as Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, encode proteins that directly interact with components of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT). Our previous studies demonstrated that a point mutation in the ESCRT component hepatocyte growth-factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate (HGS), an endosomal scaffolding protein that identifies internalized cargo to be sorted by the endosome, causes a peripheral neuropathy in the neurodevelopmentally impaired teetering mice. Here, we constructed a Schwann cell-specific deletion of Hgs to determine the role of endosomal sorting during myelination. Inactivation of HGS in Schwann cells resulted in motor and sensory deficits, slowed nerve conduction velocities, delayed myelination and hypomyelinated axons, all of which occur in demyelinating forms of CMT. Consistent with a delay in Schwann cell maturation, HGS-deficient sciatic nerves displayed increased mRNA levels for several promyelinating genes and decreased mRNA levels for genes that serve as markers of myelinating Schwann cells. Loss of HGS also altered the abundance and activation of the ERBB2/3 receptors, which are essential for Schwann cell development. We therefore hypothesize that HGS plays a critical role in endosomal sorting of the ERBB2/3 receptors during Schwann cell maturation, which further implicates endosomal dysfunction in inherited peripheral neuropathies.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Schwann cells myelinate peripheral axons, and defects in Schwann cell function cause inherited demyelinating peripheral neuropathies known as CMT. Although many CMT-linked mutations are in genes that encode putative endosomal proteins, little is known about the requirements of endosomal sorting during myelination. In this study, we demonstrate that loss of HGS disrupts the endosomal sorting pathway in Schwann cells, resulting in hypomyelination, aberrant myelin sheaths, and impairment of the ERBB2/3 receptor pathway. These findings suggest that defective endosomal trafficking of internalized cell surface receptors may be a common mechanism contributing to demyelinating CMT.

The ESCRT Machinery: Remodeling, Repairing, and Sealing Membranes. MEMBRANES 2022; 12:membranes12060633.

Abstract
The ESCRT machinery is an evolutionarily conserved membrane remodeling complex that is used by the cell to perform reverse membrane scission in essential processes like protein degradation, cell division, and release of enveloped retroviruses. ESCRT-III, together with the AAA ATPase VPS4, harbors the main remodeling and scission function of the ESCRT machinery, whereas early-acting ESCRTs mainly contribute to protein sorting and ESCRT-III recruitment through association with upstream targeting factors. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie membrane constriction and scission by ESCRT-III and describe the involvement of this machinery in the sealing and repairing of damaged cellular membranes, a key function to preserve cellular viability and organellar function.

Abstract
Endocytosis, secretion, and endosomal trafficking are key cellular processes that control the composition of the plasma membrane. Through the coordination of these trafficking pathways, cells can adjust the composition, localization, and turnover of proteins and lipids in response to developmental or environmental cues. Upon being incorporated into vesicles and internalized through endocytosis, plant plasma membrane proteins are delivered to the trans-Golgi network (TGN). At the TGN, plasma membrane proteins are recycled back to the plasma membrane or transferred to multivesicular endosomes (MVEs), where they are further sorted into intralumenal vesicles for degradation in the vacuole. Both types of plant endosomes, TGN and MVEs, act as sorting organelles for multiple endocytic, recycling, and secretory pathways. Molecular assemblies such as retromer, ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) machinery, small GTPases, adaptor proteins, and SNAREs associate with specific domains of endosomal membranes to mediate different sorting and membrane-budding events. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms underlying the recognition and sorting of proteins at endosomes, membrane remodeling and budding, and their implications for cellular trafficking and physiological responses in plants.

Abstract
Here we review the regulation of macropinocytosis by Wnt growth factor signaling. Canonical Wnt signaling is normally thought of as a regulator of nuclear β-catenin, but emerging results indicate that there is much more than β-catenin to the Wnt pathway. Macropinocytosis is transiently regulated by EGF-RTK-Ras-PI3K signaling. Recent studies show that Wnt signaling provides for sustained acquisition of nutrients by macropinocytosis. Endocytosis of Wnt-Lrp6-Fz receptor complexes triggers the sequestration of GSK3 and components of the cytosolic destruction complex such as Axin1 inside multivesicular bodies (MVBs) through the action of the ESCRT machinery. Wnt macropinocytosis can be induced both by the transcriptional loop of stabilized β-catenin, and by the inhibition of GSK3 even in the absence of new protein synthesis. The cell is poised for macropinocytosis, and all it requires for triggering of Pak1 and the actin machinery is the inhibition of GSK3. Striking lysosomal acidification, which requires macropinocytosis, is induced by GSK3 chemical inhibitors or Wnt protein. Wnt-induced macropinocytosis requires the ESCRT machinery that forms MVBs. In cancer cells, mutations in the tumor suppressors APC and Axin1 result in extensive macropinocytosis, which can be reversed by restoring wild-type protein. In basal cellular conditions, GSK3 functions to constitutively repress macropinocytosis.

Abstract
Dictyostelium amoebae perform a semi-closed mitosis, in which the nuclear envelope is fenestrated at the insertion sites of the mitotic centrosomes and around the central spindle during karyokinesis. During late telophase the centrosome relocates to the cytoplasmic side of the nucleus, the central spindle disassembles and the nuclear fenestrae become closed. Our data indicate that Dictyostelium spastin (DdSpastin) is a microtubule-binding and severing type I membrane protein that plays a role in this process. Its mitotic localization is in agreement with a requirement for the removal of microtubules that would hinder closure of the fenestrae. Furthermore, DdSpastin interacts with the HeH/ LEM-family protein Src1 in BioID analyses as well as the inner nuclear membrane protein Sun1, and shows subcellular co-localizations with Src1, Sun1, the ESCRT component CHMP7 and the IST1-like protein filactin, suggesting that the principal pathway of mitotic nuclear envelope remodeling is conserved between animals and Dictyostelium amoebae.

Abstract
Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are molecules within living cells that are released when cell membranes are ruptured. Although DAMPs have physiological functions inside the cell, once DAMPs are released extracellularly, they elicit various biological responses, including inflammation, proliferation, tissue damage, and tissue repair, in a context-dependent manner. In past decades, it was assumed that the release of DAMPs was induced by a membrane rupture, caused by passive ATP depletion, or by chemical or mechanical damage to the membrane. However, that concept has been challenged by recent advancements in understanding the regulation of cell death. Necroptosis is a form of regulated cell death, where cells show necrotic morphology. Necroptosis is triggered by death receptors, toll-like receptors, and some viral infections. The membrane rupture is executed by the mixed lineage-like kinase domain-like pseudokinase (MLKL), which forms oligomers that translocate to the plasma membrane during necroptosis. Although the causal relationship between MLKL function and membrane rupture has been extensively investigated, the detailed molecular mechanisms by which oligomerized MLKL induces membrane rupture are not fully understood. This review summarizes recent advances in understanding how MLKL regulates DAMP release and new technologies for visualizing DAMP release at single-cell resolution.

Abstract
Damaged lysosomes can be repaired by calcium release-dependent recruitment of the ESCRT machinery. However, the involvement of annexins, another group of calcium-responding membrane repair proteins, has not been fully addressed. Here, we show that although all ubiquitously expressed annexins (ANXA1, A2, A4, A5, A6, A7, and A11) localize to damaged lysosomes, only ANXA1 and ANXA2 are important for repair. Their recruitment is calcium-dependent, ESCRT-independent, and selective towards lysosomes with large injuries. Lysosomal leakage was more severe when ANXA1 or ANXA2 was depleted compared to that of ESCRT components. These findings suggest that ANXA1 and ANXA2 constitute an additional repair mechanism that serves to minimize leakage from damaged lysosomes.

Tsg101/ ESCRT-I recruitment regulated by the dual binding modes of K63-linked diubiquitin. Structure 2022; 30:289-299.e6.

Abstract
The ESCRT-I protein Tsg101 plays a critical role in viral budding and endocytic sorting. Although Tsg101 is known to recognize monoubiquitin (Ub1), here we show that it can also bind several diubiquitins (K48-Ub2, N-Ub2, and K63-Ub2), with a preference for K63-linked Ub2. The NMR structure of the Tsg101:K63-Ub2 complex showed that while the Ub1-binding site accommodates the distal domain of Ub2, the proximal domain alternatively binds two different sites, the vestigial active site and an N-terminal helix. Mutation of each site results in distinct phenotypes regarding the recruitment of Tsg101 partners. Mutation in the vestigial active site abrogates interaction between Tsg101 and the HIV-1 protein Gag but not Hrs, a cellular protein. Mutation at the N-terminal helix alters Gag but not Hrs-Tsg101 localization. Given the broad involvement of Tsg101 in diverse cellular functions, this discovery advances our understanding of how the ESCRT protein recognizes binding partners and sorts endocytic cargo.

Abstract
Mutations in the ESCRT-III subunit CHMP2B cause frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and lead to impaired endolysosomal trafficking and lysosomal storage pathology in neurons. We investigated the effect of mutant CHMP2B on synaptic pathology, as ESCRT function was recently implicated in the degradation of synaptic vesicle (SV) proteins. We report here that expression of C-terminally truncated mutant CHMP2B results in a novel synaptopathy. This unique synaptic pathology is characterised by selective retention of presynaptic SV trafficking proteins in aged mutant CHMP2B transgenic mice, despite significant loss of postsynaptic proteins. Furthermore, ultrastructural analysis of primary cortical cultures from transgenic CHMP2B mice revealed a significant increase in the number of presynaptic endosomes, while neurons expressing mutant CHMP2B display defective SV recycling and alterations to functional SV pools. Therefore, we reveal how mutations in CHMP2B affect specific presynaptic proteins and SV recycling, identifying CHMP2B FTD as a novel synaptopathy. This novel synaptopathic mechanism of impaired SV physiology may be a key early event in multiple forms of FTD, since proteins that mediate the most common genetic forms of FTD all localise at the presynapse.

Abstract
Particles of many paramyxoviruses include small amounts of proteins with a molecular weight of about 20 kDa. These proteins, termed “C”, are basic, have low amino acid homology and some secondary structure conservation. C proteins are encoded in alternative reading frames of the phosphoprotein gene. Some viruses express nested sets of C proteins that exert their functions in different locations: In the nucleus, they interfere with cellular transcription factors that elicit innate immune responses; in the cytoplasm, they associate with viral ribonucleocapsids and control polymerase processivity and orderly replication, thereby minimizing the activation of innate immunity. In addition, certain C proteins can directly bind to, and interfere with the function of, several cytoplasmic proteins required for interferon induction, interferon signaling and inflammation. Some C proteins are also required for efficient virus particle assembly and budding. C-deficient viruses can be grown in certain transformed cell lines but are not pathogenic in natural hosts. C proteins affect the same host functions as other phosphoprotein gene-encoded proteins named V but use different strategies for this purpose. Multiple independent systems to counteract host defenses may ensure efficient immune evasion and facilitate virus adaptation to new hosts and tissue environments.

Abstract
Candida albicans is both a commensal and an opportunistic fungal pathogen. Invading hyphae of C. albicans secrete candidalysin, a pore-forming peptide toxin. To prevent cell death, epithelial cells must protect themselves from direct damage induced by candidalysin and by the mechanical forces exerted by expanding hyphae. We identify two key Ca2+-dependent repair mechanisms employed by epithelial cells to withstand candidalysin-producing hyphae. Using camelid nanobodies, we demonstrate candidalysin secretion directly into the invasion pockets induced by elongating C. albicans hyphae. The toxin induces oscillatory increases in cytosolic [Ca2+], which cause hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and loss of cortical actin. Epithelial cells dispose of damaged membrane regions containing candidalysin by an Alg-2/Alix/ESCRT-III-dependent blebbing process. At later stages, plasmalemmal tears induced mechanically by invading hyphae are repaired by exocytic insertion of lysosomal membranes. These two repair mechanisms maintain epithelial integrity and prevent mucosal damage during both commensal growth and infection by C. albicans.

Abstract
The nuclear envelope (NE) is a protective barrier to the genome, yet its membranes undergo highly dynamic remodeling processes that are necessary for cell growth and maintenance. While mechanisms by which proteins promote NE remodeling are emerging, the types of bilayer lipids and the lipid-protein interactions that define and sculpt nuclear membranes remain elusive. The NE is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and recent evidence suggests that lipids produced in the ER are harnessed to remodel nuclear membranes. In this review, we examine new roles for lipid species made proximally within the ER and locally at the NE to control NE dynamics. We further explore how the biosynthesis of lipids coordinates NE remodeling to ensure genome protection.

Abstract
The abscisic acid (ABA) is a key hormone for stress tolerance. The balance between growth/development and stress responses is crucial for the optimal course of plant life meaning that plants need to control the timing and extent of ABA pathway activation. In this regard, protein turnover regulation by means of both the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and non-26S proteasome endomembrane trafficking pathways, plays a critical role in the regulation of ABA signaling activation and deactivation. Over the last few years, the ubiquitination of ABA receptors PYRABACTIN RESISTANCE1 (PYR1)/PYR1-LIKE (PYL)/REGULATORY COMPONENTS OF ABA RECEPTORS (RCAR) at the plasma membrane by the RING between RING fingers (RBR)-type E3 ligase RING FINGER OF SEED LONGEVITY1 (RSL1) triggering their internalization through the clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) pathway, followed by their endosomal trafficking and delivery to the vacuole for degradation, was reported. For this process, the direct role of some components of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery, that is, FYVE DOMAIN-CONTAINING PROTEIN 1 (FYVE1)/FYVE DOMAIN PROTEIN REQUIRED FOR ENDOSOMAL SORTING 1 (FREE1) and VACUOLAR PROTEIN SORTING23A (VPS23A) members of ESCRT-I complex, and ALG-2 INTERACTING PROTEIN-X (ALIX) associated protein of ESCRT-III, was reported. In this chapter, we will detail two methods for imaging endosomal trafficking of ABA receptor proteins by confocal microscopy: (a) colocalization of GFP-PYL4 (also known as RCAR10) and CLATHRIN LIGHT CHAIN 2 (CLC2)-mOrange in clathrin-coated vesicles in Nicotiana benthamiana leaf cells and (b) localization of GFP-PYL4 into Wortmannin (WM)-enlarged late endosomes in Arabidopsis thaliana root cells.

Abstract
Cells use unconventional secretion to deliver the β-galactoside binding lectin galectin-3 from the cell interior into the extracellular milieu. This process starts with galectin-3 recruitment into intraluminal vesicles (ILVs), which are later released at the plasma membrane as exosomes. Electron microscopy is utilized to determine the location of GFP-tagged galectin-3 in pelleted exosomes. We also describe how these vesicles are harvested from cell culture media to determine their composition. The fluorescent protein GFP was fused with the exosomal sorting motif of galectin-3 to direct GFP into exosomes. Recruitment of this fusion construct into the lumen of exosomes can be assessed by proteinase K accessibility analysis.

Abstract
Transient nuclear envelope ruptures during interphase (NERDI) occur due to cytoskeletal compressive forces at sites of weakened lamina, and delayed NERDI repair results in genomic instability. Nuclear envelope (NE) sealing is completed by endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery. A key unanswered question is how local compressive forces are counteracted to allow efficient membrane resealing. Here, we identify the ESCRT-associated protein BROX as a crucial factor required to accelerate repair of the NE. Critically, BROX binds Nesprin-2G, a component of the linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton complex (LINC). This interaction promotes Nesprin-2G ubiquitination and facilitates the relaxation of mechanical stress imposed by compressive actin fibers at the rupture site. Thus, BROX rebalances excessive cytoskeletal forces in cells experiencing NE instability to promote effective NERDI repair. Our results demonstrate that BROX coordinates mechanoregulation with membrane remodeling to ensure the maintenance of nuclear-cytoplasmic compartmentalization and genomic stability. Cytoskeletal forces exerted on the nucleus can rupture its membrane BROX is recruited to sites of rupture by the ESCRT membrane remodeling machinery BROX ubiquitinates the LINC complex protein Nesprin-2G, targeting it for degradation BROX coordinates local relaxation of mechanical stress with membrane remodeling

The Abscission Checkpoint: A Guardian of Chromosomal Stability. Cells 2021; 10:cells10123350.

Abstract
The abscission checkpoint contributes to the fidelity of chromosome segregation by delaying completion of cytokinesis (abscission) when there is chromatin lagging in the intercellular bridge between dividing cells. Although additional triggers of an abscission checkpoint-delay have been described, including nuclear pore defects, replication stress or high intercellular bridge tension, this review will focus only on chromatin bridges. In the presence of such abnormal chromosomal tethers in mammalian cells, the abscission checkpoint requires proper localization and optimal kinase activity of the Chromosomal Passenger Complex (CPC)-catalytic subunit Aurora B at the midbody and culminates in the inhibition of Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport-III (ESCRT-III) components at the abscission site to delay the final cut. Furthermore, cells with an active checkpoint stabilize the narrow cytoplasmic canal that connects the two daughter cells until the chromatin bridges are resolved. Unsuccessful resolution of chromatin bridges in checkpoint-deficient cells or in cells with unstable intercellular canals can lead to chromatin bridge breakage or tetraploidization by regression of the cleavage furrow. In turn, these outcomes can lead to accumulation of DNA damage, chromothripsis, generation of hypermutation clusters and chromosomal instability, which are associated with cancer formation or progression. Recently, many important questions regarding the mechanisms of the abscission checkpoint have been investigated, such as how the presence of chromatin bridges is signaled to the CPC, how Aurora B localization and kinase activity is regulated in late midbodies, the signaling pathways by which Aurora B implements the abscission delay, and how the actin cytoskeleton is remodeled to stabilize intercellular canals with DNA bridges. Here, we review recent progress toward understanding the mechanisms of the abscission checkpoint and its role in guarding genome integrity at the chromosome level, and consider its potential implications for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Background Charged multivesicular body protein 7 is briefly referred to as CHMP7, and it plays a significant role in the endosomal sorting pathway. CHMP7 can form a complex with ESCRTIII to jointly complete the process of contraction, shear bud neck and final membrane shedding. Methods TCGA, GEO and CPTAC were chosen for the analysis of the role of CHMP7 in pan-cancer. Role of CHMP7 in pan-cancer was analyzed using R software and tools such as TIMER, GEPIA, UALCAN, String and DiseaseMeth. It includes differential expression analysis of CHMP7, survival analysis, genetic variation analysis, DNA methylation analysis, post-translationally modified protein phosphorylation analysis and functional enrichment analysis. Results CHMP7 presents low expression in the majority of tumor tissues and the prognosis is poor in the low expression group. The common gene mutation in CHMP7 is deep deletion, which may lead to frameshift mutations, resulting in a poor prognosis. Functional alterations due to DNA methylation and post-transcriptional protein modifications may be closely associated with tumors. GO analysis revealed that CHMP7-related genes are involved in the composition of the various ESCRT complexes. In terms of molecular function, they mainly bind to GTP, exert GTPase activity and promote multivesicular bodies assembly. In the KEGG enrichment analysis, the main pathways expressed by CHMP7 and related genes were endocytosis, gap junction and phagosome. Conclusion Pan-cancer analysis showed that CHMP7 expression was statistically correlated with clinical prognosis, DNA methylation, protein phosphorylation and immune cell infiltration, which may provide new ideas or targets for the diagnosis or treatment.

Abstract
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) is formed by ESCRT-0, ESCRT-I, ESCRT-II, ESCRT-III complexes, and accessory proteins. It conducts vesicular trafficking in eukaryotes through the formation of vesicles and membrane fission and fusion events. The trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica, the protozoan responsible for human amoebiasis, presents an active membrane movement in basal state that increases during phagocytosis and tissue invasion. ESCRT-III complex has a pivotal role during these events, but ESCRT-0, ESCRT-I and ESCRT-II have been poorly studied. Here, we unveiled the E. histolytica ESCRT-I complex and its implication in vesicular trafficking and phagocytosis, as well as the molecular relationships with other phagocytosis-involved molecules. We found a gene encoding for a putative EhVps23 protein with the ubiquitin-binding and Vps23 core domains. In basal state, it was in the plasma membrane, cytoplasmic vesicles and multivesicular bodies, whereas during phagocytosis it was extensively ubiquitinated and detected in phagosomes and connected vesicles. Docking analysis, immunoprecipitation assays and microscopy studies evidenced its interaction with EhUbiquitin, EhADH, EhVps32 proteins, and the lysobisphosphatidic acid phospholipid. The knocking down of the Ehvps23 gene resulted in lower rates of phagocytosis. Our results disclosed the concert of finely regulated molecules and vesicular structures participating in vesicular trafficking-related events with a pivotal role of EhVps23.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P), a scaffold of membrane-associated proteins required for diverse cellular events, is produced by Vps34-containing phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). PI3K complex I (PI3KCI)-generated PI3P is required for macroautophagy, whereas PI3K complex II (PI3KCII)-generated PI3P is required for endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-mediated multi-vesicular body (MVB) formation in late endosomes. ESCRT also promotes vacuolar membrane remodeling in microautophagy after nutrient starvation and inactivation of target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) protein kinase in budding yeast. Whereas PI3KCI and macroautophagy are critical for the nutrient starvation response, the physiological roles of PI3KCII and microautophagy during starvation are largely unknown. Here, we showed that PI3KCII-produced PI3P on vacuolar membranes is required for microautophagy induction and survival in nutrient-stressed conditions. PI3KCII is required for Vps27 (an ESCRT-0 component) recruitment and ESCRT-0 complex formation on vacuolar surfaces after TORC1 inactivation. Forced recruitment of Vps27 onto vacuolar membranes rescued the defect in microautophagy induction in PI3KCII-deficient cells, indicating that a critical role of PI3P on microautophagy induction is Vps27 recruitment onto vacuolar surfaces. Finally, vacuolar membrane-associated Vps27 was able to recover survival during nutrient starvation in cells lacking PI3KCII or Vps27. This study revealed that the PI3KCII-PI3P-Vps27 axis on vacuolar membranes is critical for ESCRT-mediated microautophagy induction and nutrient stress adaptation.

Abstract
His domain protein tyrosine phosphatase (HD-PTP; also known as PTPN23) collaborates with endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) to sort endosomal cargo into intralumenal vesicles, forming the multivesicular body (MVB). Completion of MVB sorting is accompanied by maturation of the endosome into a late endosome, an event that requires inactivation of the early endosomal GTPase Rab5 (herein referring to generically to all isoforms). Here, we show that HD-PTP links ESCRT function with endosomal maturation. HD-PTP depletion prevents MVB sorting, while also blocking cargo from exiting Rab5-rich endosomes. HD-PTP-depleted cells contain hyperphosphorylated Rabaptin-5 (also known as RABEP1), a cofactor for the Rab5 guanine nucleotide exchange factor Rabex-5 (also known as RABGEF1), although HD-PTP is unlikely to directly dephosphorylate Rabaptin-5. In addition, HD-PTP-depleted cells exhibit Rabaptin-5-dependent hyperactivation of Rab5. HD-PTP binds directly to Rabaptin-5, between its Rabex-5- and Rab5-binding domains. This binding reaction involves the ESCRT-0/ESCRT-III binding site in HD-PTP, which is competed for by an ESCRT-III peptide. Jointly, these findings indicate that HD-PTP may alternatively scaffold ESCRTs and modulate Rabex-5–Rabaptin-5 activity, thereby helping to coordinate the completion of MVB sorting with endosomal maturation. Summary: Sorting of endocytic cargo to the multivesicular body is accompanied by endosomal maturation. Here, we provide a potential mechanism by which these two processes are linked.

Abstract
Membrane trafficking is all about time. Automation in such a biological process is crucial to ensure management and delivery of cellular cargoes with spatiotemporal precision. Shared molecular regulators and differential engagement of trafficking components improve robustness of molecular sorting. Sequential recruitment of low affinity protein complexes ensures directionality of the process and, concomitantly, serves as a kinetic proofreading mechanism to discriminate cargoes from the whole endocytosed material. This strategy helps cells to minimize losses and operating errors in membrane trafficking, thereby matching the appealed deadline. Here, we summarize the molecular pathways of molecular sorting, focusing on their timing and efficacy. We also highlight experimental procedures and genetic approaches to robustly probe these pathways, in order to guide mechanistic studies at the interface between biochemistry and quantitative biology.

Vtc5 Is Localized to the Vacuole Membrane by the Conserved AP-3 Complex to Regulate Polyphosphate Synthesis in Budding Yeast. mBio 2021; 12:e0099421.

Abstract
Polyphosphates (polyP) are energy-rich polymers of inorganic phosphates assembled into chains ranging from 3 residues to thousands of residues in length. They are thought to exist in all cells on earth and play roles in an eclectic mix of functions ranging from phosphate homeostasis to cell signaling, infection control, and blood clotting. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, polyP chains are synthesized by the vacuole-bound vacuolar transporter chaperone (VTC) complex, which synthesizes polyP while simultaneously translocating it into the vacuole lumen, where it is stored at high concentrations. VTC’s activity is promoted by an accessory subunit called Vtc5. In this work, we found that the conserved AP-3 complex is required for proper Vtc5 localization to the vacuole membrane. In human cells, previous work has demonstrated that mutation of AP-3 subunits gives rise to Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, a rare disease with molecular phenotypes that include decreased polyP accumulation in platelet dense granules. In yeast AP-3 mutants, we found that Vtc5 is rerouted to the vacuole lumen by the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), where it is degraded by the vacuolar protease Pep4. Cells lacking functional AP-3 have decreased levels of polyP, demonstrating that membrane localization of Vtc5 is required for its VTC stimulatory activity in vivo. Our work provides insight into the molecular trafficking of a critical regulator of polyP metabolism in yeast. We speculate that AP-3 may also be responsible for the delivery of polyP regulatory proteins to platelet dense granules in higher eukaryotes.
