Demaretz S, Seaayfan E, Bakhos-Douaihy D, Frachon N, Kömhoff M, Laghmani K. Golgi Alpha1,2-Mannosidase IA Promotes Efficient Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation of NKCC2. Cells 2021; 11:cells11010101. [PMID: 35011665 PMCID: PMC8750359 DOI: 10.3390/cells11010101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2021] [Revised: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Mutations in the apically located kidney Na-K-2Cl cotransporter NKCC2 cause type I Bartter syndrome, a life-threatening kidney disorder. We previously showed that transport from the ER represents the limiting phase in NKCC2 journey to the cell surface. Yet very little is known about the ER quality control components specific to NKCC2 and its disease-causing mutants. Here, we report the identification of Golgi alpha1, 2-mannosidase IA (ManIA) as a novel binding partner of the immature form of NKCC2. ManIA interaction with NKCC2 takes place mainly at the cis-Golgi network. ManIA coexpression decreased total NKCC2 protein abundance whereas ManIA knock-down produced the opposite effect. Importantly, ManIA coexpression had a more profound effect on NKCC2 folding mutants. Cycloheximide chase assay showed that in cells overexpressing ManIA, NKCC2 stability and maturation are heavily hampered. Deleting the cytoplasmic region of ManIA attenuated its interaction with NKCC2 and inhibited its effect on the maturation of the cotransporter. ManIA-induced reductions in NKCC2 expression were offset by the proteasome inhibitor MG132. Likewise, kifunensine treatment greatly reduced ManIA effect, strongly suggesting that mannose trimming is involved in the enhanced ERAD of the cotransporter. Moreover, depriving ManIA of its catalytic domain fully abolished its effect on NKCC2. In summary, our data demonstrate the presence of a ManIA-mediated ERAD pathway in renal cells promoting retention and degradation of misfolded NKCC2 proteins. They suggest a model whereby Golgi ManIA contributes to ERAD of NKCC2, by promoting the retention, recycling, and ERAD of misfolded proteins that initially escape protein quality control surveillance within the ER.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Hermes body (HB) previously called the cytoplasmic droplet is a focal distension of the flagellar cytoplasm of epididymal spermatozoa consisting mainly of isolated flattened Golgi cisternae. OBJECTIVE To define a functional role for the HB of epididymal spermatozoa. METHODS Isolated fractions of HBs of epididymal spermatozoa were prepared and by quantitative tandem mass spectrometry revealed 1511 proteins. RESULTS The glucose transporter GLUT-3 was the most abundant protein followed by hexokinase 1, which along with the presence of all glycolytic enzymes suggested a role for the HB in glycolysis. Several TMED/p24 Golgi trafficking proteins were abundant with TMED7/p27 and TMED2/p24 defining the identity of the flattened cisternae within the HB as Golgi, along with the known Golgi proteins, GBF1, GOLPH3, Man2α1, and ManIIX. The Golgi trafficking protein TMED7/p27 via small 50-nm vesicles emanating from the Golgi cisternae was proposed to transport GLUT-3 to the plasma membrane for ATP production related to sperm motility. The internal membranes revealed abundant proteins not only of Golgi cisternae, but also of endoplasmic reticulum and endosomes. COPI and COPII coats, clathrin, SNAREs, annexins, atlastins, and GTPases were identified for vesicular trafficking and membrane fusion, in addition to ribosomes, stress proteins for protection, proteasome proteins involved in degradation, and cytoskeletal elements for migration of the HB along the flagellum. The biogenesis of the HB occurring at step 19 spermatids of the testis just prior to their release was uncovered as a key step in germ cell differentiation, where several proteins were expressed, some for the first time. CONCLUSION As epididymal spermatozoa undergo remodeling of their protein makeup through selective degradation of sperm proteins during epididymal transit, then remodeling as a consequence of new protein synthesis is not excluded by our observations.

Abstract
Modifications of N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins soon after their biosynthesis correlate to glycoprotein folding status. These alterations can be detected in a sensitive way by pulse-chase analysis of [2-3H]mannose-labeled glycoproteins, with enzymatic removal of labeled N-glycans, separation according to size by HPLC and radioactive detection in a scintillation counter.

Abstract
A total of 1318 proteins characterized in the male germ cell Golgi apparatus reveal a new germ cell–specific Golgi marker and a new pan-Golgi marker for all cells. The localization of these and other Golgi proteins reveals differential expression linked to mitosis, meiosis, acrosome formation, and postacrosome Golgi migration and destination in the late spermatid. The molecular basis of changes in structure, cellular location, and function of the Golgi apparatus during male germ cell differentiation is unknown. To deduce cognate Golgi proteins, we isolated germ cell Golgi fractions, and 1318 proteins were characterized, with 20 localized in situ. The most abundant protein, GL54D of unknown function, is characterized as a germ cell–specific Golgi-localized type II integral membrane glycoprotein. TM9SF3, also of unknown function, was revealed to be a universal Golgi marker for both somatic and germ cells. During acrosome formation, several Golgi proteins (GBF1, GPP34, GRASP55) localize to both the acrosome and Golgi, while GL54D, TM9SF3, and the Golgi trafficking protein TMED7/p27 are segregated from the acrosome. After acrosome formation, GL54D, TM9SF3, TMED4/p25, and TMED7/p27 continue to mark Golgi identity as it migrates away from the acrosome, while the others (GBF1, GPP34, GRASP55) remain in the acrosome and are progressively lost in later steps of differentiation. Cytoplasmic HSP70.2 and the endoplasmic reticulum luminal protein-folding enzyme PDILT are also Golgi recruited but only during acrosome formation. This resource identifies abundant Golgi proteins that are expressed differentially during mitosis, meiosis, and postacrosome Golgi migration, including the last step of differentiation.

Abstract
Ultrastructural examination of cells and tissues by electron microscopy (EM) yields detailed information on subcellular structures. However, EM is typically restricted to small fields of view at high magnification; this makes quantifying events in multiple large-area sample sections extremely difficult. Even when combining light microscopy (LM) with EM (correlated LM and EM: CLEM) to find areas of interest, the labeling of molecules is still a challenge. We present a new genetically encoded probe for CLEM, named "FLIPPER", which facilitates quantitative analysis of ultrastructural features in cells. FLIPPER consists of a fluorescent protein (cyan, green, orange, or red) for LM visualization, fused to a peroxidase allowing visualization of targets at the EM level. The use of FLIPPER is straightforward and because the module is completely genetically encoded, cells can be optimally prepared for EM examination. We use FLIPPER to quantify cellular morphology at the EM level in cells expressing a normal and disease-causing point-mutant cell-surface protein called EpCAM (epithelial cell adhesion molecule). The mutant protein is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and could therefore alter ER function and morphology. To reveal possible ER alterations, cells were co-transfected with color-coded full-length or mutant EpCAM and a FLIPPER targeted to the ER. CLEM examination of the mixed cell population allowed color-based cell identification, followed by an unbiased quantitative analysis of the ER ultrastructure by EM. Thus, FLIPPER combines bright fluorescent proteins optimized for live imaging with high sensitivity for EM labeling, thereby representing a promising tool for CLEM.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus plays essential roles in intracellular trafficking, protein and lipid modification, and polysaccharide synthesis in eukaryotic cells. It is well known for its unique stacked structure, which is conserved among most eukaryotes. However, the mechanisms of biogenesis and maintenance of the structure, which are deeply related to ER-Golgi and intra-Golgi transport systems, have long been mysterious. Now having extremely powerful microscopic technologies developed for live-cell imaging, the plant Golgi apparatus provides an ideal system to resolve the question. The plant Golgi apparatus has unique features that are not conserved in other kingdoms, which will also give new insights into the Golgi functions in plant life. In this review, we will summarize the features of the plant Golgi apparatus and transport mechanisms around it, with a focus on recent advances in Golgi biogenesis by live imaging of plants cells.

Abstract
Spermiogenesis is a long process whereby haploid spermatids derived from the meiotic divisions of spermatocytes undergo metamorphosis into spermatozoa. It is subdivided into distinct steps with 19 being identified in rats, 16 in mouse and 8 in humans. Spermiogenesis extends over 22.7 days in rats and 21.6 days in humans. In this part, we review several key events that take place during the development of spermatids from a structural and functional point of view. During early spermiogenesis, the Golgi apparatus forms the acrosome, a lysosome-like membrane bound organelle involved in fertilization. The endoplasmic reticulum undergoes several topographical and structural modifications including the formation of the radial body and annulate lamellae. The chromatoid body is fully developed and undergoes structural and functional modifications at this time. It is suspected to be involved in RNA storing and processing. The shape of the spermatid head undergoes extensive structural changes that are species-specific, and the nuclear chromatin becomes compacted to accommodate the stream-lined appearance of the sperm head. Microtubules become organized to form a curtain or manchette that associates with spermatids at specific steps of their development. It is involved in maintenance of the sperm head shape and trafficking of proteins in the spermatid cytoplasm. During spermiogenesis, many genes/proteins have been implicated in the diverse dynamic events occurring at this time of development of germ cells and the absence of some of these have been shown to result in subfertility or infertility.

Abstract
We had previously shown that endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) of glycoproteins in mammalian cells involves trimming of three to four mannose residues from the N-linked oligosaccharide Man(9)GlcNAc(2). A possible candidate for this activity, ER mannosidase I (ERManI), accelerates the degradation of ERAD substrates when overexpressed. Although in vitro, at low concentrations, ERManI removes only one specific mannose residue, at very high concentrations it can excise up to four alpha1,2-linked mannose residues. Using small interfering RNA knockdown of ERManI, we show that this enzyme is required for trimming to Man(5-6)GlcNAc(2) and for ERAD in cells in vivo, leading to the accumulation of Man(9)GlcNAc(2) and Glc(1)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) on a model substrate. Thus, trimming by ERManI to the smaller oligosaccharides would remove the glycoprotein from reglucosylation and calnexin binding cycles. ERManI is strikingly concentrated together with the ERAD substrate in the pericentriolar ER-derived quality control compartment (ERQC) that we had described previously. ERManI knockdown prevents substrate accumulation in the ERQC. We suggest that the ERQC provides a high local concentration of ERManI, and passage through this compartment would allow timing of ERAD, possibly through a cycling mechanism. When newly made glycoproteins cannot fold properly, transport through the ERQC leads to trimming of a critical number of mannose residues, triggering a signal for degradation.

Abstract
Cardiac calsequestrin (CSQ) is a protein that traffics to and concentrates inside sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) terminal cisternae, a protein secretory compartment of uncertain origin. To investigate trafficking of CSQ within standard ER compartments, we expressed CSQ in nonmuscle cell lines and examined its localization by immunofluorescence and its molecular structure from the mass spectrum of total cellular CSQ. In all cells examined, CSQ was a highly phosphorylated protein with a glycan structure predictive of ER-retained proteins: Man9,8GlcNAc2 lacking terminal GlcNAc. Immunostaining was restricted to polymeric ER cisternae. Secretory pathway disruption by brefeldin A and thapsigargin led to altered CSQ glycosylation and phosphorylation consistent with post-ER trafficking. When epitope-tagged forms of CSQ were expressed in the same cells, mannose trimming of CSQ glycans was far more extensive, and C-terminal phosphorylation sites were nearly devoid of phosphate, in complete contrast to the highly phosphorylated wild-type protein that concentrates in all cells tested. Epitope-tagged CSQ also showed a reduced ER staining compared to wild-type protein, with significant staining in juxta-Golgi compartments. Loss of ER retention due to epitope tags or thapsigargin and resultant changes in protein structure or levels of bound Ca(2+) point to CSQ polymerization as an ER/SR retention mechanism.

Abstract
There are three mammalian Golgi alpha1,2-mannosidases, encoded by different genes, that form Man5GlcNAc2 from Man(8-9)GlcNAc2 for the biosynthesis of hybrid and complex N-glycans. Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization indicate that the three paralogs display distinct developmental and tissue-specific expression. The physiological role of Golgi alpha1,2-mannosidase IB was investigated by targeted gene ablation. The null mice have normal gross appearance at birth, but they display respiratory distress and die within a few hours. Histology of fetal lungs the day before birth indicate some delay in development, whereas neonatal lungs show extensive pulmonary hemorrhage in the alveolar region. No significant histopathological changes occur in other tissues. No remarkable ultrastructural differences are detected between wild type and null lungs. The membranes of a subset of bronchiolar epithelial cells are stained with lectins from Phaseolus vulgaris (leukoagglutinin and erythroagglutinin) and Datura stramonium in wild type lungs, but this staining disappears in lungs from null mice. Mass spectrometry of N-glycans from different tissues shows no significant changes in global N-glycans of null mice. Therefore, only a few glycoproteins required for normal lung function depend on alpha1,2-mannosidase IB for maturation. There are no apparent differences in the expression of several lung epithelial cell and endothelial cell markers between null and wild type mice. The alpha1,2-mannosidase IB null phenotype differs from phenotypes caused by ablation of other enzymes in N-glycan biosynthesis and from other mouse gene disruptions that affect pulmonary development and function.

Abstract
The processing of N-linked oligosaccharides in the secretory pathway requires the sequential action of a number of glycosidases and glycosyltransferases. We studied the spatial distribution of several type II membrane-bound enzymes from Glycine max, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Nicotiana tabacum. Glucosidase I (GCSI) localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), alpha-1,2 mannosidase I (ManI) and N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GNTI) both targeted to the ER and Golgi, and beta-1,2 xylosyltransferase localized exclusively to Golgi stacks, corresponding to the order of expected function. ManI deletion constructs revealed that the ManI transmembrane domain (TMD) contains all necessary targeting information. Likewise, GNTI truncations showed that this could apply to other type II enzymes. A green fluorescent protein chimera with ManI TMD, lengthened by duplicating its last seven amino acids, localized exclusively to the Golgi and colocalized with a trans-Golgi marker (ST52-mRFP), suggesting roles for protein-lipid interactions in ManI targeting. However, the TMD lengths of other plant glycosylation enzymes indicate that this mechanism cannot apply to all enzymes in the pathway. In fact, removal of the first 11 amino acids of the GCSI cytoplasmic tail resulted in relocalization from the ER to the Golgi, suggesting a targeting mechanism relying on protein-protein interactions. We conclude that the localization of N-glycan processing enzymes corresponds to an assembly line in the early secretory pathway and depends on both TMD length and signals in the cytoplasmic tail.

Abstract
Huntingtin interacting protein 1 (HIP1) is an endocytic adaptor protein with clathrin assembly activity that binds to cytoplasmic proteins, such as F-actin, tubulin, and huntingtin (htt). To gain insight into diverse functions of HIP1, we characterized the male reproductive defect of HIP1(-/-) mice from 7 to 30 weeks of age. High levels of HIP1 protein were expressed in the testis of wild-type mice as seen by Western blots and as a reaction over Sertoli cells and elongating spermatids as visualized by immunocytochemistry. Accordingly, major structural abnormalities were evident in HIP1(-/-) mice with vacuolation of seminiferous tubules caused by an apparent loss of postmeiotic spermatids and a significant reduction in mean profile area. Remaining spermatids revealed deformations of their heads, flagella, and/or acrosomes. In some Sertoli cells, ectoplasmic specializations (ES) were absent or altered in appearance accounting for the presence of spherical germ cells in the epididymal lumen. Quantitative analyses of sperm counts from the cauda epididymidis demonstrated a significant decrease in HIP1(-/-) mice compared to wild-type littermates. In addition, computer-assisted sperm analyses indicated that velocities, amplitude of lateral head displacements (ALH), and numbers and percentages of sperm in the motile, rapid, and progressive categories were all significantly reduced in HIP1(-/-) mice, while the numbers and percentages of sperm in the static category were greatly increased. Taken together, these various abnormalities corroborate reduced fertility levels in HIP1(-/-) mice and suggest a role for HIP1 in stabilizing actin and microtubules, which are important cytoskeletal elements enabling normal spermatid and Sertoli cell morphology and function.

Abstract
Akt1 is a survival factor that is believed to play a role in the transcriptional modulation of a subset of genes associated with cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis. We have explored in detail the expression of total Akt1 and phosphorylated Akt1 in the developing and adult rat testis. Throughout testis postnatal development, the expression of total Akt1 protein exhibited a mainly cytoplasmic localization within both the germ cells and the supporting Sertoli cells. In contrast, phosphorylated Akt1 staining demonstrated a mainly nuclear localization within germ cells. In the developmental sequence of germ cells, phosphorylated Akt1 stained the nuclei of spermatogonia, spermatocytes, and round spermatids. During spermiogenesis, phosphorylated Akt1 staining decreased in the nucleus and became localized to a bright spot at the base of the nucleus in elongate spermatids. Of interest, total Akt1 was found to localize to the perinuclear region of germ cells and the supranuclear region of Sertoli cells, depending on fixation. Further analysis demonstrated this staining to be associated with the Golgi complex in both germ and Sertoli cells.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of misfolded or misprocessed glycoproteins in mammalian cells is prevented by inhibitors of class I alpha-mannosidases implicating mannose trimming from the precursor oligosaccharide Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 as an essential step in this pathway. However, the extent of mannose removal has not been determined. We show here that glycoproteins subject to endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation undergo reglucosylation, deglucosylation, and mannose trimming to yield Man6GlcNAc2 and Man5GlcNAc2. These structures lack the mannose residue that is the acceptor of glucose transferred by UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase. This could serve as a mechanism for removal of the glycoproteins from folding attempts catalyzed by cycles of reglucosylation and calnexin/calreticulin binding and result in targeting of these molecules for proteasomal degradation.

Abstract
Membrane fusion is important to reproduction because it occurs in several steps during the process of fertilization. Many events of intracellular trafficking occur during both spermiogenesis and oogenesis. The acrosome reaction, a key feature during mammalian fertilization, is a secretory event involving the specific fusion of the outer acrosomal membrane and the sperm plasma membrane overlaying the principal piece of the acrosome. Once the sperm has crossed the zona pellucida, the gametes fuse, but in the case of the sperm this process takes place through a specific membrane domain in the head, the equatorial segment. The cortical reaction, a process that prevents polyspermy, involves the exocytosis of the cortical granules to the extracellular milieu. In lower vertebrates, the formation of the zygotic nucleus involves the fusion (syngamia) of the male pronucleus with the female pronucleus. Other undiscovered membrane trafficking processes may also be relevant for the formation of the zygotic centrosome or other zygotic structures. In this review, we focus on the recent discovery of molecular machinery components involved in intracellular trafficking during mammalian spermiogenesis, notably related to acrosome biogenesis. We also extend our discussion to the molecular mechanism of membrane fusion during the acrosome reaction. The data available so far suggest that proteins participating in the intracellular trafficking events leading to the formation of the acrosome during mammalian spermiogenesis are also involved in controlling the acrosome reaction during fertilization.

Abstract
Alpha-mannosidase IIx (MX) is an enzyme closely related to the Golgi N-glycan processing enzyme alpha-mannosidase II (MII). The enzymatic activity of MX in vitro is minimal. Therefore, the in vivo role of MX in N-glycan processing is as yet unclear. The targeted disruption of the gene encoding MX in the mouse resulted in an obvious phenotype, i.e., MX-deficient males were found to be infertile. Testes from homozygous mutant male mice are smaller than those from wild-type or heterozygous littermates. Histology of the MX null mouse testis showed significant reduction of spermatogenic cells in the seminiferous tubules. Electron microscopy showed that prominent intercellular spaces surround MX-deficient spermatogenic cells, suggesting a failure of germ cell adhesion to Sertoli cells. Quantitative structural analyses of N-glycans from wild-type and MX-deficient mouse testis showed that wild-type testes contain GlcNAc-terminated complex type N-glycans, while they are significantly reduced in MX-deficient mutant testis. An in vitro assay for adhesion of spermatogenic cells to Sertoli cells was carried out. By testing the effect of each purified N-glycan oligosaccharide, it was demonstrated that a GlcNAc-terminated tri-antennary, fucosylated N-glycan has an activity on the adhesion between germ cells and Sertoli cells. Thus, the targeted disruption of the gene encoding MX uncovered a novel carbohydrate recognition system in a biologically important process, spermatogenesis.

Abstract
ExoS is a bifunctional type III cytotoxin produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Residues 96-232 comprise the Rho GTPase activating protein (Rho GAP) domain, whereas residues 233-453 comprise the 14-3-3-dependent ADP-ribosyltransferase domain. Earlier studies showed that the N-terminus targeted ExoS to intracellular membranes within eukaryotic cells. This N-terminal targeting region is now characterized for cellular and biological contributions to intoxications by ExoS. An ExoS(1-107)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein co-localized with alpha-mannosidase, which indicated that the fusion protein localized near the Golgi. Residues 51-72 of ExoS (termed the membrane localization domain, MLD) were necessary and sufficient for membrane localization within eukaryotic cells. Deletion of the MLD did not inhibit type III secretion of ExoS from P. aeruginosa or type III delivery of ExoS into eukaryotic cells. Type III-delivered ExoS(DeltaMLD) localized within the cytosol of eukaryotic cells, whereas type III-delivered ExoS was membrane associated. Although type III-delivered ExoS(DeltaMLD) stimulated the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton (a Rho GAP activity), it did not ADP-ribosylate Ras. Type III-delivered ExoS(DeltaMLD) and ExoS showed similar capacities for eliciting a cytotoxic response in CHO cells, which uncoupled the ADP-ribosylation of Ras from the cytotoxicity elicited by ExoS.

Abstract
The identification of unique sperm surface epitopes that are not expressed or exposed in the female reproductive tract is a key element in the development of antibody-based contraceptives. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were performed to define the tissue distribution of the S19 epitope, which has been proposed as a target for immunocontraception. S19 is an IgG1 murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) directed to an N-linked carbohydrate epitope on a 15-25 kDa glycoprotein, sperm agglutination antigen-1 (SAGA-1), containing a peptide core identical to that of the lymphocytic surface protein CD52. In this study, the S19 epitope was shown to be absent from human lymphocytes, demonstrating a distinction between this epitope and the CAMPATH epitope that is recognized by an antibody against the terminal tripeptide and GPI-anchor of CD52. Further tissue specificity analysis identified the S19 epitope in the epithelium of the human epididymis and vas deferens, as well as on both epididymal and ejaculated spermatozoa. In contrast, the S19 epitope was absent in the five human female reproductive tract and 18 other somatic tissues tested. These results support the use of the S19 epitope as a contraceptive immunogen and the suitability of the S19 mAb as an intravaginal contraceptive. To test the agglutinating activity of the S19 mAb in a formulation designed for vaginal use, S19 mAb were bound to the surface of Novasomes, a multilamellar liposome delivery vehicle. S19-Novasome formulations agglutinated human spermatozoa and were as effective as unbound S19 mAb, demonstrating the feasibility of spermistatic contraceptives targeted to the male reproductive tract specific carbohydrate epitope.

Abstract
Spermatogenesis is a precisely regulated process in which the germ cells closely interact with Sertoli cells. The molecular basis of this cell-cell adhesion is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that targeted disruption of Man2a2, a gene encoding alpha-mannosidase IIx (MX), an enzyme that forms intermediate asparagine-linked carbohydrates (N-glycans), results in Man2a2 null males that are largely infertile. The Man2a2 null spermatogenic cells fail to adhere to Sertoli cells and are prematurely released from the testis to epididymis. We identified an N-glycan structure that plays a key role in germ cell-Sertoli cell adhesion and showed that a specific carbohydrate was required for spermatogenesis.

Abstract
Class I alpha 1,2-mannosidases (glycosylhydrolase family 47) are conserved through eukaryotic evolution. This protein family comprises three subgroups distinguished by their enzymatic properties. The first subgroup includes yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and human alpha 1,2-mannosidases of the endoplasmic reticulum that primarily form Man(8)GlcNAc(2) isomer B from Man(9)GlcNAc(2). The second subgroup includes mammalian Golgi alpha 1,2-mannosidases, as well as enzymes from insect cells and from filamentous fungi, that trim Man(9)GlcNAc(2) to Man(8)GlcNAc(2) isomers A and/or C intermediates toward the formation of Man(5)GlcNAc(2). Yeast and mammalian proteins of the third subgroup have no enzyme activity with Man(9)GlcNAc(2) as substrate. The members of subgroups 1 and 3 participate in endoplasmic reticulum quality control and promote proteasomal degradation of misfolded glycoproteins. The yeast endoplasmic reticulum alpha 1,2-mannosidase has served as a model for structure-function studies of this family. Its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography as an enzyme-product complex. It consists of a novel (alpha alpha)(7) barrel containing the active site that includes essential acidic residues and calcium. The structures of the subgroup 1 human endoplasmic reticulum alpha 1,2-mannosidase and of a subgroup 2 fungal alpha 1,2-mannosidase were determined by molecular replacement. Comparison of the enzyme structures is providing some insight into the reasons for their different specificities.

Abstract
A soluble form of ribophorin I (RI(332)) is rapidly degraded in Hela and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by a cytosolic proteasomal pathway, and the N-linked glycan present on the protein may play an important role in this process. Specifically, it has been suggested that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) mannosidase I could trigger the targeting of improperly folded glycoproteins to degradation. We used a CHO-derived glycosylation-defective cell line, MadIA214, for investigating the role of mannosidase(s) as a signal for glycoprotein degradation. Glycoproteins in MadIA214 cells carry truncated Glc(1)Man(5)GlcNAc(2) N-glycans. This oligomannoside structure interferes with protein maturation and folding, leading to an alteration of the ER morphology and the detection of high levels of soluble oligomannoside species caused by glycoprotein degradation. An HA-epitope-tagged soluble variant of ribophorin I (RI(332)-3HA) expressed in MadIA214 cells was rapidly degraded, comparable to control cells with the complete Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) N-glycan. ER-associated degradation (ERAD) of RI(332)-3HA was also proteasome-mediated in MadIA214 cells, as demonstrated by inhibition of RI(332)-3HA degradation with agents specifically blocking proteasomal activities. Two inhibitors of alpha1,2-mannosidase activity also stabilized RI(332)-3HA in the glycosylation-defective cell line. This is striking, because the major mannosidase activity in the ER is the one of mannosidase I, specific for a mannose alpha1,2-linkage that is absent from the truncated Man(5) structure. Interestingly, though the Man(5) derivative was present in large amounts in the total protein pool, the two major species linked to RI(332)-3HA shortly after synthesis consisted of Glc(1)Man(5 )and Man(4), being replaced by Man(4 )and Man(3) when proteasomal degradation was inhibited. In contrast, the untrimmed intermediate of RI(332)-3HA was detected in mutant cells treated with mannosidase inhibitors. Our results unambiguously demonstrate that an alpha1,2-mannosidase that is not ER mannosidase I is involved in ERAD of RI(332-)3HA in the glycosylation-defective cell line, MadIA214.

Abstract
Active trafficking from the Golgi apparatus is involved in acrosome formation, both by delivering acrosomal contents to the nascent secretory vesicle and by controlling organelle growth and shaping. During murine spermiogenesis, Golgi antigens (giantin, beta-COP, golgin 97, mannosidase II) are detected in the acrosome until the late cap-phase spermatids, but are not found in testicular spermatozoa (maturation-phase spermatids). This suggests that Golgi-acrosome flow may be relatively unselective, with Golgi residents retrieved before spermiation is complete. Treatment of spermatogenic cells with brefeldin A, a drug that causes the Golgi apparatus to collapse into the endoplasmic reticulum, disrupted the Golgi in both pachytene spermatocytes and round spermatids. However, this treatment did not affect the acrosomal granule, and some beta-COP labeling on the acrosome of elongating spermatids was maintained. Additionally, N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor, soluble NSF attachment proteins, and homologues of the t-SNARE syntaxin and of the v-SNARE VAMP/synaptobrevin, as well as members of the rab family of small GTPases, are associated with the acrosome (but not the acrosomal granule) in round and elongated spermatids. This suggests that rab proteins and the SNARE machinery for membrane recognition/docking/fusion may be involved in trafficking during mammalian acrosome biogenesis.

Abstract
Murine alpha1,2-mannosidase IB is a type II transmembrane protein localized to the Golgi apparatus where it is involved in the biogenesis of complex and hybrid N-glycans. This enzyme consists of a cytoplasmic tail, a transmembrane domain followed by a "stem" region and a large C-terminal catalytic domain. To analyze the determinants of targeting, we constructed various deletion mutants of murine alpha1,2-mannosidase IB as well as alpha1,2-mannosidase IB/yeast alpha1,2-mannosidase and alpha1,2-mannosidase IB/GFP chimeras and localized these proteins by fluorescence microscopy, when expressed transiently in COS7 cells. Replacing the catalytic domain of alpha1,2-mannosidase IB with that of the homologous yeast alpha1,2-mannosidase and deleting the "stem" region in this chimera had no effect on Golgi targeting, but caused increased cell surface localization. The N-terminal tagged protein lacking a catalytic domain was also localized to the Golgi. In the latter case, when the stem region was partially or completely removed, the protein was found in both the ER and the Golgi. A chimera consisting of the alpha1,2-mannosidase IB N-terminal region (cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains plus 10 amino acids of the "stem" region) and GFP was localized mainly to the Golgi. Deletion of 30 out of 35 amino acids in the cytoplasmic tail had no effect on Golgi localization. A GFP chimera lacking the entire cytoplasmic tail was found in both the ER and the Golgi. These results indicate that the transmembrane domain of alpha1,2-mannosidase IB is a major determinant of Golgi localization.

In the enzymatic reaction, the pyridylaminated substrate Man(9)GlcNAc(2)-PA was trimmed to Man(8)GlcNAc(2)-PA which lacked one alpha-1,2-mannose residue at the nonreducing terminus of the middle branch (Man8B isomer), and this mannooligosaccharide remained predominant through the overall reaction. Trimming was optimal at pH 7.0 in PIPES buffer in the presence of calcium ion and kifunensine was inhibitory with IC(50) below 0.1 microM. These results suggest that the activity is the same type as was previously observed with human and yeast endoplasmic reticulum (ER) alpha-mannosidases. Considering these results together with previous data on a fungal alpha-1,2-mannosidase that trimmed Man(9)GlcNAc(2) to Man(5)GlcNAc(2) (Ichishima, E., et al. (1999) Biochem J, 339: 589-597), the filamentous fungi appear to have two types of alpha-1,2-mannosidases, each of which acts differently on N-linked mannooligosaccharides.

Abstract
A human cDNA encoding a 70.9-kDa type II membrane protein with sequence similarity to class I alpha1,2-mannosidases was isolated. The enzymatic properties of the novel alpha1,2-mannosidase IC were studied by expressing its catalytic domain in Pichia pastoris as a secreted glycoprotein. alpha1,2-Mannosidase IC sequentially hydrolyzes the alpha1,2-linked mannose residues of [(3)H]mannose-labeled Man(9)GlcNAc to form [(3)H]Man(6)GlcNAc and a small amount of [(3)H]Man(5)GlcNAc. The enzyme requires calcium for activity and is inhibited by both 1-deoxymannojirimycin and kifunensine. The order of mannose removal was determined by separating oligosaccharide isomers formed from pyridylaminated Man(9)GlcNAc(2) by high performance liquid chromatography. The terminal alpha1,2-linked mannose residue from the middle branch is the last mannose removed by the enzyme. This residue is the mannose cleaved from Man(9)GlcNAc(2) by the endoplasmic reticulum alpha1, 2-mannosidase I to form Man(8)GlcNAc(2) isomer B. The order of mannose hydrolysis from either pyridylaminated Man(9)GlcNAc(2) or Man(8)GlcNAc(2) isomer B differs from that previously reported for mammalian Golgi alpha1,2-mannosidases IA and IB. The full-length alpha1,2-mannosidase IC was localized to the Golgi of MDBK and MDCK cells by indirect immunofluorescence. Northern blot analysis showed tissue-specific expression of a major transcript of 3.8 kilobase pairs. The expression pattern is different from that of human Golgi alpha1,2-mannosidases IA and IB. Therefore, the human genome contains at least three differentially regulated Golgi alpha1, 2-mannosidase genes encoding enzymes with similar, but not identical specificities.
