Site-specific functionality and tryptophan mimicry of lipidation in tetraspanin CD9. FEBS J 2020; 287:5323-5344.

Abstract
Lipidation of transmembrane proteins regulates many cellular activities, including signal transduction, cell–cell communication, and membrane trafficking. However, how lipidation at different sites in a membrane protein affects structure and function remains elusive. Here, using native mass spectrometry we determined that wild‐type human tetraspanins CD9 and CD81 exhibit nonstochastic distributions of bound acyl chains. We revealed CD9 lipidation at its three most frequent lipidated sites suffices for EWI‐F binding, while cysteine‐to‐alanine CD9 mutations markedly reduced binding of EWI‐F. EWI‐F binding by CD9 was rescued by mutating all or, albeit to a lesser extent, only the three most frequently lipidated sites into tryptophans. These mutations did not affect the nanoscale distribution of CD9 in cell membranes, as shown by super‐resolution microscopy using a CD9‐specific nanobody. Thus, these data demonstrate site‐specific, possibly conformation‐dependent, functionality of lipidation in tetraspanin CD9 and identify tryptophan mimicry as a possible biochemical approach to study site‐specific transmembrane‐protein lipidation.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2010; 1803:1298-307.

Abstract
CD36/FAT is a transmembrane glycoprotein that functions in the cellular uptake of long-chain fatty acids and also as a scavenger receptor. As such it plays an important role in lipid homeostasis and, pathophysiologically, in the progression of type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis. CD36 expression is tightly regulated at the levels of both transcription and translation. Here we show that its expression and location are also regulated post-translationally, by palmitoylation. Although palmitoylation of CD36 was not required for receptor maturation and cell surface expression, inhibition of palmitoylation either pharmacologically with cerulenin or by mutation of the relevant cysteines delayed processing at the ER and trafficking through the secretory pathway. The absence of palmitoylation also reduced the half life of the CD36 protein. Additionally, the CD36 palmitoylation mutant did not incorporate efficiently into lipid rafts, a site known to be required for its function of fatty acid uptake, and this reduced the efficiency of uptake of oxidized low density lipoprotein. These findings provide an added level of sophistication where translocation of CD36 to the plasma membrane may be physiologically regulated by palmitoylation.

Abstract
As a member of the tetraspanin superfamily of proteins, CD81 has been linked to a number of biologic functions including cellular proliferation, differentiation, activation, and degranulation. As a co-receptor for hepatitis C virus, and a requirement for hepatocytes for infectivity of human Plasmodium falciparum and rodent P. yoelii sporozoite infectivity, CD81 may also play a vital role in pathology. Despite the importance of CD81 in multiple cellular functions, the molecular mechanism of action of CD81 in these processes has remained elusive. Here we report an association between CD81 and the epsilon isoform of 14-3-3, a serine/threonine-binding intracellular signaling protein. Furthermore, we provide evidence that in human, this association is influenced by the palmitoylation state of the CD81 cytoplasmic tails. We have generated a series of CD81 cysteine mutants to identify palmitoylated intracellular motifs of CD81, and reveal palmitoylation on the N- and C-terminal tails as well as the intracellular loop between transmembrane domains 2 and 3. One of these mutants lacks all five of its intracellular cysteines and therefore cannot be palmitoylated. This unpalmitoylated version of CD81 shows constitutive association with 14-3-3. Interestingly, we find that under oxidative conditions, CD81 palmitoylation is inhibited and that condition correlates with the association of CD81 and 14-3-3. These finding suggest that CD81 signaling events could be mediated by 14-3-3 adapter proteins, and these signals may be dependent on cellular redox.

Abstract
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute one of the largest protein families in the human genome. They are subject to numerous post-translational modifications, including palmitoylation. This review highlights the dynamic nature of palmitoylation and its role in GPCR expression and function. The palmitoylation of other proteins involved in GPCR signaling, such as G-proteins, regulators of G-protein signaling, and G-protein-coupled receptor kinases, is also discussed.

Abstract
A noncovalently associated complex comprising of CD9, the fibrinogen (Fg) receptor alphaIIbbeta3, integrin-associated protein (IAP), and glycoprotein (GP) Ib/V/IX complex was isolated from Chaps-solubilized human platelets. The CD9 complex was immunoprecipitated by mAbs specific for CD9 (mAb7), IAP (BRIC126), GPIb (SZ1), GPIX (GR-P), beta3 (AP3) and alphaIIb (C3). Additionally, the association between CD9 and alphaIIbbeta3 was demonstrated by ELISA. In this system, CD9 did not bind to vitronectin receptor (alphavbeta3) suggesting that CD9/alphaIIbbeta3 association was alphaIIb-subunit or alphaIIbbeta3-complex dependent. D3, an alphaIIbbeta3-activating mAb that is also an anti-LIBS (ligand-induced binding site), immunoprecipitated primarily alphaIIbbeta3 with GPIb and IAP. CD9 was not detected in D3 immunoprecipitates. D3 binding induced platelet aggregation via direct alphaIIbbeta3 activation and was upregulated by the alphaIIbbeta3 antagonist eptifibatide. In contrast, AP3 and C3 exhibited neither effect. In addition, D3 also inhibited whole blood clot retraction, in contrast to AP3 and C3, suggesting that conformational constraints on alphaIIbbeta3 by D3 binding not only influenced the CD9 complex but also affected alphaIIbbeta3 post receptor occupancy events. The CD9 complex was immunoprecipitated in the presence of eptifibatide, demonstrating that alphaIIbbeta3 receptor occupancy was not sufficient to cause complex dissociation. CD9 complex isolation was also independent of platelet activation, although a twofold increase in the quantity of CD9 complex was seen after platelet activation by alpha-thrombin in the presence of CaCl2 compared with that present in EDTA. Stirred platelets showed fibrinogen-mediated aggregation by alpha-thrombin in the presence of CaCl2 but not with EDTA, suggesting that fibrinogen crosslinking of CD9 complexes via alphaIIbbeta3 could be partially responsible for this increase. These findings imply that the platelet CD9 complex is independent of platelet activation although it is dependent upon the conformation state of alphaIIbbeta3.

Abstract
CD81 (TAPA-1) is a widely expressed cell-surface protein involved in an astonishing variety of biologic responses. It has been cloned independently several times for different functional effects and is reported to influence adhesion, morphology, activation, proliferation, and differentiation of B, T, and other cells. On B cells CD81 is part of a complex with CD21, CD19, and Leu13. This complex reduces the threshold for B cell activation via the B cell receptor by bridging Ag specific recognition and CD21-mediated complement recognition. Similarly on T cells CD81 associates with CD4 and CD8 and provides a costimulatory signal with CD3. In fetal thymic organ culture, mAb to CD81 block maturation of CD4-CD8- thymocytes, and expression of CD81 on CHO cells endows those cells with the ability to support T cell maturation. However, CD81-deficient mice express normal numbers and subsets of T cells. These mice do exhibit diminished antibody responses to protein antigens. CD81 is also physically and functionally associated with several integrins. Anti-CD81 can activate integrin alpha 4 beta 1 (VLA-4) on B cells, facilitating their adhesion to tonsilar interfollicular stroma. Similarly, anti-CD81 can activate alpha L beta 2 (LFA-1) on human thymocytes. CD81 can also affect cognate B-T cell interactions because anti-CD81 increases IL-4 synthesis by T cells responding to antigen presented by B cells but not by monocytes. The tetraspanin superfamily (or TM4SF) includes CD81, CD9, CD37, CD53, CD63, CD82, CD151, and an increasing number of additional proteins. Like CD81, several tetraspanins are involved in cell adhesion, motility, and metastasis, as well as cell activation and signal transduction.

Abstract
Direct modification of proteins by fatty acid can occur as cotranslational N-myristoylation of an N-terminal glycine residue or as posttranslational thioesterification of cysteine residue(s). Platelets provide an excellent model system for studying the posttranslational type of modification in the absence of active protein synthesis and in the absence of protein synthesis-related protein modifications with lipids. Using this model system it was shown that thioesterification of proteins with fatty acid is less specific for palmitate than it was thought earlier and that other saturated, mono- and even polyunsaturated long chain fatty acids can also participate. The chain length and the extent of unsaturation of the protein-linked fatty acid moiety can, very likely, modulate hydrophobic protein-membrane lipid and protein-protein interactions. CD9, HLA class I glycoprotein, glycoproteins Ib, IX and IV, P-selectin and alpha subunits of G proteins have been demonstrated unequivocally as S-fatty acid acylated platelet proteins.

Abstract
A variety of fatty acids can become covalently attached to platelet proteins by thioester linkage. These fatty acids include palmitate, myristate, stearate, arachidonate, and eicosapentaenoate. More than 20 platelet proteins can be acylated by fatty acids. Several of the acylated platelet proteins have been identified, including glycoprotein Ib beta, glycoprotein IX, P-selectin, G-protein alpha subunits, and CD9. This report reviews the fatty acid acylation of platelet proteins.

Abstract
CD9 is a 24-kDa membrane glycoprotein expressed on the surface of human platelets and potentially involved in cellular activation and adhesion functions. This protein belongs to a recently delineated family of cell-surface antigens that span the membrane four times, called tetraspans, and found mainly in leucocytes and tumour cells. As a first approach to clarify the function of CD9, we used immunoelectron microscopy to determine the localization of this antigen in human platelets, and compared its distribution with that of the GPIIb-IIIa integrin, the platelet receptor for fibrinogen. Monoclonal antibodies against CD9 (MAb7) and GPIIb-IIIa (HP1-1D) coupled to colloidal gold of different sizes (5 and 15 nm) were incubated with intact platelets in suspension or on ultrathin sections of platelets embedded in LR white. CD9 was found in association with GPIIb-IIIa on the inner face of alpha-granule membranes. These two antigens also colocalized on pseudopods of activated platelets and in contact regions between adjacent platelets. CD63, another member of the tetraspan family, was absent from alpha-granules but was associated with lysosomal structures. Flow cytometric analysis of platelet CD9 with a series of monoclonal antibodies revealed an increased expression upon thrombin stimulation, confirming the presence of an intracellular granular pool. The observation that CD9 and GPIIb-IIIa are stored in the same intracellular structures and migrate to the same activation zones after platelet stimulation lends support to previous suggestions of a close association between CD9 and GPIIb-IIIa in human platelets and of a possible involvement of CD9 in adhesive functions of platelets.

Abstract
The effect of agonists on palmitoylated proteins was examined in platelets prelabeled with [3H]palmitic acid. Non-reduced gels revealed major labeled proteins with masses from 30-38 kDa. One of these proteins was modified by A23187, which led to a loss of radioactivity, and PMA, which altered its electrophoretic mobility. A possible link between the A23187-induced loss of label associated with the protein and the activation of calpain was suggested by the following experiments. (1) There was a good correlation between the loss of label and the proteolysis of proteins in A23187-activated platelets. (2) The permeant calpain inhibitor, E64d, blocked the loss of label as well as the proteolysis of proteins. (3) The loss of label also occurred in a Triton lysate, where calpain was known to be activated. The effect of PMA on the palmitoylated protein was observed only in prelabeled platelets. The protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine, abolished the PMA-induced platelet aggregation as well as the mobility shift of the labeled protein.

Abstract
This report describes a French Canadian family whose members exhibit a high incidence of allo- and autoantibodies to antigens present on both platelets and endothelial cells. This is correlated with various HLA specificities known to be associated with autoimmunity, such as A1, B8, DR3, and, in some cases, with clinical disorders, including nephritis, hypertension, and thrombocytopenia. Immunoblot analysis using platelet and endothelial cell lysates showed serum antibodies to a 75 kDa endothelial cell surface polypeptide and to polypeptides with apparent mass of 115 kDa and 26 kDa found on both platelets and endothelial cells. This 115 kDa internal platelet protein was also found in a variety of other cell types, such as mononuclear cells, and increased following cell activation. Monoclonal antibody immunobilization assays were used to characterize the 26 kDa polypeptide; in three of the four patients tested, an antibody to leukocyte differentiation antigen CD9 was identified. The asymptomatic child of the propositus also exhibited an autoantibody against an 80 kDa platelet protein which was sensitive to thrombin digestion, suggesting that this polypeptide may be platelet glycoprotein V. In addition, P1A1 alloantibody was identified in one sister who had given birth to a severely thrombocytopenic boy and who herself had a severe vascular rejection to a cadaver kidney 2 years prior to this study. The propositus also developed hypertensive renal disease following a pregnancy and became dialysis dependent. Thus, members of this family have developed a variety of antibodies, particularly to platelet and endothelial cell antigens. Some subjects have remained asymptomatic in spite of having autoantibodies. However, others have been seriously ill, and their immune response to these antigens is believed to have played a role in the pathogenesis of their neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenic purpura, hypertensive renal disease, renal graft rejection, and thrombocytopenia.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibody PM6/248, which recognizes the GPIIb-IIIa complex on human platelets, causes platelet aggregation in platelet-rich plasma or in gel-filtered platelet suspensions. Aggregation follows a concentration-dependent lag phase and reaches a maximum at 8 micrograms/ml. High concentrations of antibody (less than 30 micrograms/ml) produce complete inhibition of the aggregation response. Aggregation is accompanied by serotonin secretion and thromboxane A2 synthesis, neither of which are inhibited by high concentrations of antibody, and by the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. The F(ab')2 fragment of PM6/248 does not cause platelet activation and pre-incubation of platelets with this fragment inhibits all platelet responses stimulated by the whole antibody. Pre-incubation with the F(ab')2 fragment of the anti-Fc gamma RII Mab, IV. 3, also inhibits all responses to PM6/248. These data indicate that platelet activation stimulated by PM6/248 is caused by cross-linking of GPIIb-IIIa to the Fc gamma RII which stimulates signal transduction across the plasma membrane through a conformational change in the Fc gamma RII.

Abstract
F(ab')2 fragments of anti-CD9 mAb aggregate platelets by a thromboxane-dependent pathway implicating CD9 as signal initiating molecule. We demonstrate that mAbs directed against CD9, but not against GPIIb/IIIa specifically immunoprecipitate, from detergent lysates of human platelets, proteins of 25 and 26 kDa which bind [alpha 32P]GTP on nitrocellulose transfers. The binding is specific since it is blocked by GTP, but not by ATP. The GTP-binding proteins do not belong to a Mg(2+)-sensitive subset since they are unaffected by the addition of 2 microM-20 mM Mg2+. The observations demonstrate that CD9 is associated with selected small G-proteins.

TP 82, a monoclonal antibody against CD 9 antigen, induced human platelet activation at concentrations higher than 0.4 microgram/mL in terms of aggregation, release of intracellular granule contents, production of arachidonic acid metabolites, and elevation of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. The effects of a competitive inhibitor of ADP, acetylsalicylic acid, EGTA, and GRGDSP which blocks fibrinogen binding to IIb/IIIa complex suggested that each of released ADP, thromboxane A2, extracellular Ca2+, and close cell contact acts together to potentiate platelet activation induced by TP 82. While each of these inhibitors severely suppressed platelet activation induced by lower concentrations of the antibody (less than or equal to 0.8 microgram/mL), that induced by higher concentrations (greater than or equal to 3.2 micrograms/mL) was only partially blocked. Intracellular Ca2+ elevation was totally dependent upon the production of thromboxane A2, regardless of the antibody concentrations.

Abstract
CD9 is a signal-initiating glycoprotein of uncertain membrane insertion which contains more than one locus of acylation and is distinguished by being the major acylatable platelet protein. The N-terminus of CD9 is blocked to Edman degradation. We investigated whether [3H]myristic acid could be incorporated into CD9, whether that incorporation occurred via an amide linkage, and whether myristate and palmitate were differentially incorporated into the two domains. Pulse-labeling studies, performed on the human osteogenic sarcoma cell line SKOSC which expresses 22 and 24 kDa variants of CD9 demonstrated that the respective precursors of 20.5 and 23 kDa were not radiolabeled by either [3H]myristic acid or [3H]palmitic acid, but that both fatty acids could be ligated to CD9 during the later stages of protein maturation. The failure to incorporate myristic acid cotranslationally suggest that CD9 does not contain amino-terminal amide-bonded myristic acid. Incorporation of radiolabel from both fatty acids proceeded very rapidly and could be visualized after a 10 s pulse. Although myristic acid was partially metabolized into palmitic acid, incorporation of authentic [3H]myristate into CD9 could be demonstrated. The myristic acid bonds were shown to be as sensitive to hydroxylamine treatment as those linking palmitate. Both fatty acids were also incorporated into CD9 in hydroxylamine-sensitive bonds in the presence of cycloheximide, reaching 30-40% of the levels in untreated controls. The sensitivity of myristate ligands to hydroxylamine demonstrates that this fatty acid is not linked via amide, but rather via ester bonds. The sensitivity of [3H]myristate and [3H]palmitate bonds to 2-mercaptoethanol further suggests that either fatty acid is linked via thioester rather than hydroxyester bonds to each domain on CD9. Limited proteolysis analysis with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase of CD9, labeled in the absence or presence of cycloheximide, showed that [3H]myristic acid and [3H]palmitic acid labeled identical peptides, and to the same extent, suggesting that myristate is an alternative substrate for the transacylase(s) involved.

Abstract
CD9 antigen (p24) was purified from human platelets and partially characterized. The yield was 75 micrograms from 10 units of platelet concentrates. p24 (38,000 copies/platelet) has intramolecular disulfide bond(s) and, in SDS-PAGE, consists of major 24-kDa molecule and minor 26- to 31-kDa molecules. The N-terminal sequence of p24, PVKGGTKXIKYLLFGFNFIF, indicates that the protein has not previously been characterized and amino terminus (position 12-20) is hydrophobic.

Abstract
When washed human platelets were incubated with [3H]palmitic acid, radioactivity was incorporated into a major 38 kDa doublet and several minor proteins that were resolved on polyacrylamide gels. The radioactivity associated with the proteins remained after extractions with organic solvents, but it was lost after hydroxylamine treatment or mild alkali methanolysis. The products of these reactions were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography and HPLC. They were identified as palmitohydroxamate and methyl palmitate, respectively, indicating that the palmitic acid was covalently linked to the proteins via oxygenester or thioester bonds. In resting platelets, radioactivity was detected in the 38 kDa proteins 2 min after the addition of [3H]palmitic acid. A plateau was reached between 5 and 11 min, at which time radioactivity was also detected in a 23 kDa protein. Thrombin elicited faster and greater incorporation of label into both proteins. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) led to a similar, but slower increase of radioactivity in the 38 kDa proteins, while collagen and A23187 were less effective. Enhanced palmitoylation may be closely linked to platelet activation, as suggested by the following observations: (1) in thrombin- or PMA-activated platelets, the time-course of aggregation correlated with the time-course of enhanced palmitoylation of the 38 kDa proteins; (2) in platelets activated by various concentrations of thrombin with or without prostacyclin, aggregation was correlated with the enhanced incorporation of radioactivity into the 38 kDa proteins.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that [3H]palmitic acid strongly labels both glycosylated forms (gp22 and gp24) of the signal-initiating cell surface glycoprotein CD9. We performed a two-dimensional limited proteolysis analysis with Staphylococcus aureus V8 proteinase in order to localize the palmitylation sites to final peptides on both glycosylated forms of CD9. Analysis of [3H]leucine- and [3H]amino acid mixture-labeled gp22 delineated 4 final peptides of 11, 8, 7 and 4 kDa. gp24 produced a similar pattern with the exception that the 11 kDa peptide was replaced by an N-glycosylated 13 kDa peptide. Since all four final peptides (total molecular mass of 30/32 kDa) could not be accommodated by a parent molecule of 22/24 kDa, it is likely that one of the final peptide coexists in two differently modified states. Palmitic acid labeled the 11 kDa/13 kDa final peptides, and the 7 kDa final peptide, with equal intensity, but was not incorporated into the 4 kDa final peptide, demonstrating that fatty acid is ligated in two distinct regions of the molecule. The 8 kDa final peptide was strongly labeled by [3H]palmitic acid, but only weakly by [3H]leucine. We present evidence that this peptide is derived by further acylation of the region defined by the 7 kDa peptide, and that this occurs in only 15% of the molecules. Palmitic acid is turned over faster at these additional sites, indicating that they may be more accessible to membrane transacylases. Proteolysis of CD9 on the intact cell with papain enabled the highly acylated region to be localized to a membrane-associated fragment which contains the binding site for the agonistic monoclonal antibody 50H.19. The co-localization of a functional domain with a region of variable acylation suggests that acylation events may play a role in the transduction of the signal initiated by interaction of the antibody with CD9.
