Abstract
Dysregulated inflammatory responses are often correlated with disease severity during viral infections. Annexin A1 (AnxA1) is an endogenous pro-resolving protein that timely regulates inflammation by activating signaling pathways that culminate with the termination of response, clearance of pathogen and restoration of tissue homeostasis. Harnessing the pro-resolution actions of AnxA1 holds promise as a therapeutic strategy to control the severity of the clinical presentation of viral infections. In contrast, AnxA1 signaling might also be hijacked by viruses to promote pathogen survival and replication. Therefore, the role of AnxA1 during viral infections is complex and dynamic. In this review, we provide an in-depth view of the role of AnxA1 during viral infections, from pre-clinical to clinical studies. In addition, this review discusses the therapeutic potential for AnxA1 and AnxA1 mimetics in treating viral infections.

Fernandez-Torres MA, Lledó VE, Perez de Lara MJ, Guzman-Aranguez A. Effects of hyperosmolarity on annexin A1 on ocular surface epithelium in vitro. Exp Eye Res 2022; 224:109245.

Abstract
Osmotic stress is an important challenge to cell function. Dry eye pathology is characterized by elevated tear film osmolarity as consequence of decreased tear secretion and/or increased evaporation. Dry eye pathogenesis is not completely clarified. However, it is known that tear hyperosmolarity induces NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family, pyrin domain-cointaining 3) inflammasome activation and inflammatory mediators release that leads to ocular surface damage. Annexin A1 is a protein involved in anti-inflammatory or pro-resolution actions in different tissues while its presence and biological role on ocular surface has been scarcely examined. In this study, potential changes in annexin A1 protein expression and secretion on the ocular surface after exposure to hyperosmolar conditions were evaluated. In addition, considering the significant role of inflammation in dry eye pathology, the potential anti-inflammatory activity of Ac2-26, an annexin A1 peptide mimicking its N-terminus, was assessed. Cytosolic and membrane staining was detected for annexin A1 in corneal and conjunctival epithelial cells. A native form of annexin A1 together with a truncated form were detected by western blot analysis. Under hyperosmotic conditions increased protein levels of intracellular and secreted annexin A1 as well as higher expression of its receptor Fpr2 (formyl peptide receptor type 2) were found. Treatment with mimetic peptide Ac2-26 ameliorated NLRP3 activation and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) release triggered by elevated osmolarity in corneal and conjunctival epithelial cells. These findings suggest a potential role of annexin A1 and its mimetic peptide modulating key inflammatory events associated to dry eye.

Abstract
The RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway is crucial for producing type I interferon (IFN-I) against RNA viruses. The present study observed that viral infection increased annexin-A1 (ANXA1) expression, and ANXA1 then promoted RNA virus-induced IFN-I production. Compared to ANXA1 wild-type cells, ANXA1−/− knockout cells showed IFN-β production decreasing after viral stimulation. RNA virus stimulation induced ANXA1 to regulate IFN-β production through the TBK1-IRF3 axis but not through the NF-κB axis. ANXA1 also interacted with JAK1 and STAT1 to increase signal transduction induced by IFN-β or IFN-γ. We assessed the effect of ANXA1 on the replication of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) and found that ANXA1 inhibits FMDV replication dependent on IFN-I production. FMDV 3A plays critical roles in viral replication and host range. The results showed that FMDV 3A interacts with ANXA1 to inhibit its ability to promote IFN-β production. We also demonstrated that FMDV 3A inhibits the formation of ANXA1-TBK1 complex. These results indicate that ANXA1 positively regulates RNA virus-stimulated IFN-β production and FMDV 3A antagonizes ANXA1-promoted IFN-β production to modulate viral replication. IMPORTANCE FMDV is a pathogen that causes one of the world’s most destructive and highly contagious animal diseases. The FMDV 3A protein plays a critical role in viral replication and host range. Although 3A is one of the viral proteins that influences FMDV virulence, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. ANXA1 is involved in immune activation against pathogens. The present study demonstrated that FMDV increases ANXA1 expression, while ANXA1 inhibits FMDV replication. The results also showed that ANXA1 promotes RNA virus-induced IFN-I production through the IRF3 axis at VISA and TBK1 levels. ANXA1 was also found to interact with JAK1 and STAT1 to strengthen signal transduction induced by IFN-β and IFN-γ. 3A interacted with ANXA1 to inhibit ANXA1-TBK1 complex formation, thereby antagonizing the inhibitory effect of ANXA1 on FMDV replication. This study helps to elucidate the mechanism underlying the effect of the 3A protein on FMDV replication.

Abstract
Annexin A1 is a 37 kDa phospholipid-binding protein that is expressed in many tissues and cell types, including leukocytes, lymphocytes and epithelial cells. Although Annexin A1 has been extensively studied for its anti-inflammatory activity, it has been shown that, in the cancer context, its activity switches from anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory. Remarkably, Annexin A1 shows pro-invasive and pro-tumoral properties in several cancers either by eliciting autocrine signaling in cancer cells or by inducing a favorable tumor microenvironment. Indeed, the signaling of the N-terminal peptide of AnxA1 has been described to promote the switching of macrophages to the pro-tumoral M2 phenotype. Moreover, AnxA1 has been described to prevent the induction of antigen-specific cytotoxic T cell response and to play an essential role in the induction of regulatory T lymphocytes. In this way, Annexin A1 inhibits the anti-tumor immunity and supports the formation of an immunosuppressed tumor microenvironment that promotes tumor growth and metastasis. For these reasons, in this review we aim to describe the role of Annexin A1 in the establishment of the tumor microenvironment, focusing on the immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory activities of Annexin A1 and on its interaction with the epidermal growth factor receptor.

Abstract
Poor delivery efficiency continues to hamper the effectiveness of cancer therapeutics engineered to destroy solid tumors using different strategies such as nanocarriers, targeting agents, and matching treatments to specific genetic mutations. All contemporary systemic anti-cancer agents are dependent upon passive transvascular mechanisms for their delivery into solid tumors. The therapeutic efficacies of our current drug arsenal could be significantly improved with an active delivery strategy. Here, we discuss how drug delivery and therapeutic efficacy are greatly hindered by barriers presented by the vascular endothelial cell layer and by the aberrant nature of tumor blood vessels in general. We describe mechanisms by which molecules cross endothelial cell (EC) barriers in normal tissues and in solid tumors, including paracellular and transcellular pathways that enable passive or active transport. We also discuss specific obstacles to drug delivery that make solid tumors difficult to treat, as well strategies to overcome them and enhance drug penetration. Finally, we describe the caveolae pumping system, a promising active transport alternative to passive drug delivery across the endothelial cell barrier. Each strategy requires further testing to define its therapeutic applicability and clinical utilities.

Abstract
Since an intact membrane is required for normal cellular homeostasis, membrane repair is essential for cell survival. Human genetic studies, combined with the development of novel animal models and refinement of techniques to study cellular injury, have now uncovered series of repair proteins highly relevant for human health. Many of the deficient repair pathways manifest in skeletal muscle, where defective repair processes result in myopathies or other forms of muscle disease. Dysferlin is a membrane-associated protein implicated in sarcolemmal repair and also linked to other membrane functions including the maintenance of transverse tubules in muscle. MG53, annexins, and Eps15 homology domain-containing proteins interact with dysferlin to form a membrane repair complex and similarly have roles in membrane trafficking in muscle. These molecular features of membrane repair are not unique to skeletal muscle, but rather skeletal muscle, due to its high demands, is more dependent on an efficient repair process. Phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, as well as Ca(2+), are central regulators of membrane organization during repair. Given the importance of muscle health in disease and in aging, these pathways are targets to enhance muscle function and recovery from injury.

Abstract
Insulin receptor (IR) endocytosis requires a remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton. We show here that ANXA2 is SUMOylated at the K10 located in a non-consensus SUMOylation motif in the N-terminal domain. The Y24F mutation decreased the SUMOylation signal, whereas insulin stimulation increased ANXA2 SUMOylation. A survey of protein SUMOylation in hepatic Golgi/endosome (G/E) fractions after insulin injections revealed the presence of a SUMOylation pattern and confirmed the SUMOylation of ANXA2. The construction of an IR/ANXA2/SUMO network (IRASGEN) in the G/E context reveals the presence of interacting nodes whereby SUMO1 connects ANXA2 to actin and microtubule-mediated changes in membrane topology. Heritable variants associated with type 2 diabetes represent 41% of the IRASGEN thus pointing out the physio-pathological importance of this subnetwork.

Abstract
Technologies are needed to map and image biological barriers in vivo that limit solid tumor delivery and, ultimately, the effectiveness of imaging and therapeutic agents. Here we integrate proteomic and imaging analyses of caveolae at the blood-tumor interface to discover an active transendothelial portal to infiltrate tumors. A post-translationally modified form of annexin A1 (AnnA1) is selectively concentrated in human and rodent tumor caveolae. To follow trafficking, we generated a specific AnnA1 antibody that targets caveolae in the tumor endothelium. Intravital microscopy of caveolae-immunotargeted fluorophores even at low intravenous doses showed rapid and robust pumping across the endothelium to enter mammary, prostate and lung tumors. Within 1 h, the fluorescence signal concentrated throughout tumors to exceed the peak levels in blood. This transvascular pumping required the expression of caveolin 1 and annexin A1. Tumor uptake with other antibodies were >100-fold less. This proteomic imaging strategy reveals a unique target, antibody and caveolae pumping system for solid tumor penetration.

Abstract
Mouse prostate membrane-associated proteins of the annexin family showed changes in SUMOylation during androgen treatment. Among these the calcium-binding annexin A1 protein (ANXA1) was chosen for further characterization given its role in protein secretion and cancer. SUMOylation of ANXA1 was confirmed by overexpressing SUMO-1 in LNCaP cells. Site-directed mutagenesis indicated that K257 located in a SUMOylation consensus motif in the C-terminal calcium-binding DA3 repeat domain is SUMOylated. Mutation of the N-terminal Y21 decreased markedly the SUMOylation signal while EGF stimulation increased ANXA1 SUMOylation. A structural analysis of ANXA1 revealed that K257 is located in a hot spot where Ca(2+) and SUMO-1 bind and where a nuclear export signal and a polyubiquitination site are also present. Also, Y21 is buried inside an α-helix structure in the Ca(2+)-free conformation implying that Ca(2+) binding, and the subsequent expelling of the N-terminal α-helix in a disordered conformation, is permissive for its phosphorylation. These results show for the first time that SUMOylation can be regulated by an external signal (EGF) and indicate the presence of a cross-talk between the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of ANXA1 through post-translational modifications.

Abstract
Annexin A1 (ANXA1) is cleaved at the N terminal in some activated cells, such as macrophages, neutrophils, and epithelial cells. We previously observed that ANXA1 was proteolytically cleaved in lung extracts prepared from a murine OVA-induced asthma model. However, the cleavage and regulatory mechanisms of ANXA1 in the allergic response remain unclear. In this study, we found that ANXA1 was cleaved in both Ag-induced activated rat basophilic leukemia 2H3 (RBL-2H3) cells and bone marrow-derived mast cells. This cleavage event was inhibited when intracellular Ca(2+) signaling was blocked. ANXA1-knockdown RBL-2H3 cells produced a greater amount of eicosanoids with simultaneous upregulation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) activity. However, there were no changes in degranulation activity or cytokine production in the knockdown cells. We also found that cPLA(2) interacted with either full-length or cleaved ANXA1 in activated mast cells. cPLA(2) mainly interacted with full-length ANXA1 in the cytosol and cleaved ANXA1 in the membrane fraction. In addition, introduction of a cleavage-resistant ANXA1 mutant had inhibitory effects on both the phosphorylation of cPLA(2) and release of eicosanoids during the activation of RBL-2H3 cells and bone marrow-derived mast cells. These data suggest that cleavage of ANXA1 causes proinflammatory reactions by increasing the phosphorylation of cPLA(2) and production of eicosanoids during mast-cell activation.

Abstract
Neutrophil extravasation, a critical component of innate immunity must be tightly regulated to prevent inadvertent or prolonged inflammation and subsequent tissue damage. We have shown previously that endothelial ERK1/2 signaling essential for neutrophil transendothelial migration is induced by a soluble factor produced by activated neutrophils. In this study, we demonstrate that the soluble neutrophil factor is a truncated form of annexin A1 (AnxA1) that can be generated by calpain 1 cleavage of the N terminus, thus identifying a novel proinflammatory function to AnxA1. In contrast, neither the full-length protein nor the N-terminal 26 aa peptide, previously shown to be antiinflammatory, were able to activate Erk. Our data suggest that two different fragments of AnxA1 have opposing functions in inflammation. We also provide evidence that C-terminal AnxA1 functions by increasing ICAM1 clustering around adherent neutrophils to anchor them to the endothelium and promote transmigration through the transcellular route.

Abstract
Background Worldwide cervical cancer remains a leading cause of mortality from gynecologic malignancies. The link between cervical cancer and persistent infection with HPV has been established. At a molecular level little is known about the transition from the precancerous state to invasive cancer. To elucidate this process, cervical biopsies from human specimens were obtained from precancerous state to stage III disease. Methods Cervical biopsies were obtained from patients with a diagnosis of cervical cancer undergoing definitive surgery or staging operation. Biopsies were obtained from patients with precancerous lesions at the time of their excisional procedure. Control samples were obtained from patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign conditions such as fibroids. Samples were subjected to proteomic profiling using two dimensional gel electrophoresis with subsequent trypsin digestion followed by MALDI-TOF protein identification. Candidate proteins were then further studied using western blotting, immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemistry. Results Annexin A1 and DNA-PKcs were found to be differentially expressed. Phosphorylated annexin A1 was up regulated in diseased states in comparison to control and its level was strongly detected in the serum of cervical cancer patients compared to controls. DNA-PKcs was noted to be hyperphosphorylated and fragmented in cancer when compared to controls. By immunohistochemistry annexin A1 was noted in the vascular environment in cancer and certain precancerous samples. Conclusion This study suggests a probable role for protein tyrosine phosphorylation in cervical carcinogenesis. Annexin A1 and DNA-PK cs may have synergistic effects with HPV infection. Precancerous lesions that may progress to cervical cancer may be differentiated from lesions that will not base on similar immunohistochemical profile to invasive squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Annexin A2 (AnxA2) is a Ca(2+)- and acidic phospholipid-binding protein involved in many cellular processes. It undergoes Ca(2+)-mediated membrane bridging at neutral pH and has been demonstrated to be involved in an H(+)-mediated mechanism leading to a novel AnxA2-membrane complex structure. We used fluorescence techniques to characterize this H(+)-dependent mechanism at the molecular level; in particular, the involvement of the AnxA2 N-terminal domain. This domain was labeled at Cys-8 either with acrylodan or pyrene-maleimide fluorescent probes. Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence analysis for acrylodan and fluorescence quenching by doxyl-labeled phospholipids revealed direct interaction between the N-terminal domain and the membrane. The absence of pyrene excimer suggested that interactions between N termini are not involved in the H(+)-mediated mechanism. These findings differ from those previously observed for the Ca(2+)-mediated mechanism. Protein titration experiments showed that the protein concentration for half-maximal membrane aggregation was twice for Ca(2+)-mediated compared with H(+)-mediated aggregation, suggesting that AnxA2 was able to bridge membranes either as a dimer or as a monomer, respectively. An N-terminally deleted AnxA2 was 2-3 times less efficient than the wild-type protein for H(+)-mediated membrane aggregation. We propose a model of AnxA2-membrane assemblies, highlighting the different roles of the N-terminal domain in the H(+)- and Ca(2+)-mediated membrane bridging mechanisms.

Abstract
Annexin A2 (AnxA2) is a Ca(2+)- and phospholipid-binding protein involved in many cellular regulatory processes. Like other annexins, it is constituted by two domains: a conserved core, containing the Ca(2+) binding sites, and a variable N-terminal segment, containing sites for interactions with other protein partners like S100A10 (p11). A wealth of data exists on the structure and dynamics of the core, but little is known about the N-terminal domain especially in the Ca(2+)-induced membrane-bridging process. To investigate this protein region in the monomeric AnxA2 and in the heterotetramer (AnxA2-p11)(2), the reactive Cys8 residue was specifically labelled with the fluorescent probe acrylodan and the interactions with membranes were studied by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence. In membrane junctions formed by the (AnxA2-p11)(2) heterotetramer, the flexibility of the N-terminal domain increased as compared to the protein in solution. In "homotypic" membrane junctions formed by monomeric AnxA2, acrylodan moved to a more hydrophobic environment than in the protein in solution and the flexibility of the N-terminal domain also increased. In these junctions, this domain is probably not in close contact with the membrane surface, as suggested by the weak quenching of acrylodan observed with doxyl-PCs, but pairs of N-termini likely interact, as revealed by the excimer-forming probe pyrene-maleimide bound to Cys8. We present a model of monomeric AnxA2 N-terminal domain organization in "homotypic" bridged membranes in the presence of Ca(2+).

Abstract
Pulmonary host defense employs a combination of biochemical and biophysical activities to recognize, inactivate, and mediate clearance of environmental agents as well as modulate the overall response to such challenge. Dysregulation of the inflammatory arm of this response is associated with chronic lung diseases (CLD) including cystic fibrosis and chronic obstructive lung disease. Although mechanisms mediating immunoregulation are incompletely characterized, decrements in levels of the nonciliated secretory cell product Clara cell secretory protein (CCSP) in numerous CLD and identification of proinflammatory state in mice homozygous for a null allele of the CCSP gene (CCSP−/−) suggest a central role for the nonciliated secretory cell in this process. In an effort to determine the molecular basis for immunoregulatory defects associated with CCSP deficiency, we utilized difference gel electrophoresis in combination with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight to compare the proteomes of wild-type and CCSP−/− mice. We demonstrate a shift in the isoelectric point of the immunomodulatory protein annexin A1 (ANXA1) to more acidic isoforms in CCSP−/− mice. Similar ANXA1 mRNA and protein abundance in wild-type and CCSP−/− tissue and identical localization of ANXA1 protein to alveolar macrophages and the ciliary bed of ciliated cells demonstrated that CCSP deficiency was associated exclusively with altered posttranslational modification of ANXA1. These results suggest that both long- and short-range paracrine signaling between nonciliated secretory cells and cells of the immune system and epithelium impact modification of cell type-specific proteins and implicate nonciliated secretory cells in a regulatory axis that might integrate critical aspects of host defense.

Abstract
Ca2+ entering a cell through a torn or disrupted plasma membrane rapidly triggers a combination of homotypic and exocytotic membrane fusion events. These events serve to erect a reparative membrane patch and then anneal it to the defect site. Annexin A1 is a cytosolic protein that, when activated by micromolar Ca2+, binds to membrane phospholipids, promoting membrane aggregation and fusion. We demonstrate here that an annexin A1 function-blocking antibody, a small peptide competitor, and a dominant-negative annexin A1 mutant protein incapable of Ca2+ binding all inhibit resealing. Moreover, we show that, coincident with a resealing event, annexin A1 becomes concentrated at disruption sites. We propose that Ca2+ entering through a disruption locally induces annexin A1 binding to membranes, initiating emergency fusion events whenever and wherever required.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells contain various Ca(2+)-effector proteins that mediate cellular responses to changes in intracellular Ca(2+) levels. A unique class of these proteins - annexins - can bind to certain membrane phospholipids in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, providing a link between Ca(2+) signalling and membrane functions. By forming networks on the membrane surface, annexins can function as organizers of membrane domains and membrane-recruitment platforms for proteins with which they interact. These and related properties enable annexins to participate in several otherwise unrelated events that range from membrane dynamics to cell differentiation and migration.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of the Ca2+ and membrane-binding protein annexin 1 by epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor tyrosine kinase has been thought to be involved in regulation of the EGF receptor trafficking. To elucidate the interaction of annexin 1 during EGF receptor internalization, we followed the distribution of annexin 1-GFP fusion proteins at sites of internalizing EGF receptors. The observed association of annexin 1 with EGF receptors was confirmed by immunoprecipitation. We found that this interaction was independent of a functional phosphorylation site in the annexin 1 N-terminal domain but mediated through the Ca2+ binding core domain.

Abstract
TRPM7 is an unusual bifunctional molecule consisting of a TRP ion channel fused to a protein kinase domain. It has been shown that TRPM7 plays a key role in the regulation of intracellular magnesium homeostasis as well as in anoxic neuronal death. TRPM7 channel has been characterized using electrophysiological techniques; however, the function of the kinase domain is not known and endogenous substrates for the kinase have not been reported previously. Here we have identified annexin 1 as a substrate for TRPM7 kinase. Phosphorylation of annexin 1 by TRPM7 kinase is stimulated by Ca2+ and is dramatically increased in extracts from cells overexpressing TRPM7. Phosphorylation of annexin 1 by TRPM7 kinase occurs at a conserved serine residue (Ser5) located within the N-terminal amphipathic alpha-helix of annexin 1. The N-terminal region plays a crucial role in interaction of annexin 1 with other proteins and membranes, and therefore, phosphorylation of annexin 1 at Ser5 by TRPM7 kinase may modulate function of annexin 1.

Abstract
In 1993, Huber and co-workers published the structure of an N-terminally truncated version of human annexin A1 lacking the first 32 amino acid residues (PDB code: 1AIN). In 2001, we reported the structure of full-length porcine annexin A1 including the N-terminal domain in the absence of calcium ions (PDB code: 1HM6). The latter structure did not reflect a typical annexin core fold, but rather a surprising interaction of the N-terminal domain and the core domain. Comparing these two structures revealed that in the full-length structure the first 12 residues of the N-terminal domain insert into the core of the protein, thereby replacing and unwinding one of the alpha-helices (helix D in repeat 3) that is involved in calcium binding. We hypothesized that this structure in the absence of calcium ions represents the inactive form of the protein. Furthermore, we proposed that upon calcium binding, the N-terminal domain would be expelled from the core domain and that the core D-helix would reform in the proper conformation for calcium coordination. Herein, we report the X-ray structure of full-length porcine annexin A1 in the presence of calcium. This new structure shows a typical annexin core structure as we hypothesized, with the D-helix back in place for calcium coordination while parts of the now exposed N-terminal domain are disordered. We could locate eight calcium ions in this structure, two of which are octa-coordinated and two of which were not observed in the structure of the N-terminally truncated annexin A1. Possible implications of this calcium-induced conformational switch for the membrane aggregation properties of annexin A1 will be discussed.

Abstract
Wild type (wt) p21 Bax was cleaved to generate p18 Bax during apoptotic processes by calpain, which was suggested to recognize a certain motif around amino acids 30-33 Phe-Ile-Gln-Asp (FIQD). In the present study, analysis of protein sequencing revealed that the cleavage site was between Gln28 and Gly29. The fragment lacking the NH(2)-terminal amino acids 1-28 (tBax(29)) was more apoptotic than wt Bax. The tBax(29)-induced apoptotic cell death was substantially resistant to Bcl-x(L)-mediated rescue, compared with wt Bax, in spite of the complex formation between these two molecules. Together, the tBax(29) would be valuable for the treatment of tumors with high levels of Bcl-x(L) as well as the understanding of Bax-mediated apoptotic processes.

Abstract
Annexins are Ca(2+)-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins composed of two domains: A conserved core that is responsible for Ca(2+)- and phospholipid-binding, and a variable N-terminal tail. A Ca(2+)-independent annexin 2-membrane association has been shown to be modulated by the presence of cholesterol in the membranes. Herein, the roles of the core and the N-terminal tail on the cholesterol-enhancement of annexin 2 membrane binding and aggregation were studied. The results show that (i) the cholesterol-mediated increase in membrane binding and in the Ca(2+) sensitivity for membrane aggregation were not modified by a N-terminal peptide (residues 15-26), and were conserved in mutants of the N-terminal end (S11 and S25 substitutions); (ii) cholesterol induced an increase in the Ca(2+)-dependent membrane binding and aggregation of the N-terminally truncated protein (Delta 1-29); and (iii) annexins 5 and 6, two proteins with unrelated N-terminal tails and homologous core domains showed a cholesterol-mediated enhancement of the Ca(2+)-dependent binding to membranes. These data indicate that the core domain is responsible for the cholesterol-mediated effects. A model for the cholesterol effect in membrane organisation, annexin binding and aggregation is discussed.

Abstract
We recently showed that a class of novel carboxylated N:-glycans was constitutively expressed on endothelial cells. Activated, but not resting, neutrophils expressed binding sites for the novel glycans. We also showed that a mAb against these novel glycans (mAbGB3.1) inhibited leukocyte extravasation in a murine model of peritoneal inflammation. To identify molecules that mediated these interactions, we isolated binding proteins from bovine lung by their differential affinity for carboxylated or neutralized glycans. Two leukocyte calcium-binding proteins that bound in a carboxylate-dependent manner were identified as S100A8 and annexin I. An intact N terminus of annexin I and heteromeric assembly of S100A8 with S100A9 (another member of the S100 family) appeared necessary for this interaction. A mAb to S100A9 blocked neutrophil binding to immobilized carboxylated glycans. Purified human S100A8/A9 complex and recombinant human annexin I showed carboxylate-dependent binding to immobilized bovine lung carboxylated glycans and recognized a subset of mannose-labeled endothelial glycoproteins immunoprecipitated by mAbGB3.1. Saturable binding of S100A8/A9 complex to endothelial cells was also blocked by mAbGB3.1. These results suggest that the carboxylated glycans play important roles in leukocyte trafficking by interacting with proteins known to modulate extravasation.

Abstract
Annexins comprise a multigene family of Ca2+ and phospholipid- binding proteins. They consist of a conserved C-terminal or core domain that confers Ca2+-dependent phospholipid binding and an N-terminal domain that is variable in sequence and length and responsible for the specific properties of each annexin. Crystal structures of various annexin core domains have revealed a high degree of similarity. From these and other studies it is evident that the core domain harbors the calcium-binding sites that interact with the phospholipid headgroups. However, no structure has been reported of an annexin with a complete N-terminal domain. We have now solved the crystal structure of such a full-length annexin, annexin 1. Annexin 1 is active in membrane aggregation and its refined 1.8 A structure shows an alpha-helical N-terminal domain connected to the core domain by a flexible linker. It is surprising that the two alpha-helices present in the N-terminal domain of 41 residues interact intimately with the core domain, with the amphipathic helix 2-12 of the N-terminal domain replacing helix D of repeat III of the core. In turn, helix D is unwound into a flap now partially covering the N-terminal helix. Implications for membrane aggregation will be discussed and a model of aggregation based on the structure will be presented.

Abstract
Annexin 2 is a member of the annexin family which has been implicated in calcium-regulated exocytosis. This contention is largely based on Ca(2+)-dependent binding of the protein to anionic phospholipids. However, annexin 2 was shown to be associated with chromaffin granules in the presence of EGTA. A fraction of this bound annexin 2 was released by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, a reagent which depletes cholesterol from membranes. Restoration of the cholesterol content of chromaffin granule membranes with cholesterol/methyl-beta-cyclodextrin complexes restored the Ca(2+)-independent binding of annexin 2. The binding of both, monomeric and tetrameric forms of annexin 2 was also tested on liposomes of different composition. In the absence of Ca(2+), annexin 2, especially in its tetrameric form, bound to liposomes containing phosphatidylserine, and the addition of cholesterol to these liposomes increased the binding. Consistent with this observation, liposomes containing phosphatidylserine and cholesterol were aggregated by the tetrameric form of annexin 2 at submicromolar Ca(2+) concentrations. These results indicate that the lipid composition of membranes, and especially their cholesterol content, is important in the control of the subcellular localization of annexin 2 in resting cells, at low Ca(2+) concentration. Annexin 2 might be associated with membrane domains enriched in phosphatidylserine and cholesterol.

Abstract
The conformational preferences of AnxI(N26), a peptide corresponding to residues 2-26 of human annexin I, were investigated using CD and NMR spectroscopy. CD results showed that AnxI(N26) adopts a mainly alpha-helical conformation in membrane-mimetic environments, TFE/water and SDS micelles, while a predominantly random structure with slight helical propensity in aqueous buffer. The helical region of AnxI(N26) showed a nearly identical conformation between in TFE/water and in SDS micelles, except for the orientation of the Trp-12 side-chain, which was quite different between the two. The N-terminal region of the AnxI(N26) helix showed a typical amphipathic nature, which could be stabilized by the neighboring hydrophobic cluster. The helical stability of the peptide in SDS micelles was increased by addition of calcium ions. These results suggest that the N-terminal tail domain of human annexin I interacts with biological membranes in a partially calcium-dependent manner.

Abstract
We have earlier shown that an N-terminal truncated annexin I molecule, annexin I(des1-8), is generated in human neutrophils through cleavage by a membrane localized metalloprotease. The truncated protein showed differences in membrane binding among the neutrophil granule populations as compared to full-length annexin I. In this study, we investigated the cleavage capabilities of isolated neutrophil secretory vesicles and plasma membrane, and the binding of full-length annexin I and annexin I(des1-8) to these membrane fractions. Translocations were performed in vitro to secretory vesicles and plasma membrane, respectively, at different Ca(2+) concentrations. We show that the annexin I-cleaving membrane localized metalloprotease is present both in the secretory vesicles and the plasma membrane. The N-terminal truncation of annexin I gives rise to a molecule with a decreased Ca(2+) requirement for binding, both to secretory vesicles and plasma membrane. There was, thus, no difference in binding of either full-length annexin I or annexin I(des1-8) to the secretory vesicles as compared to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The transcription of three annexin genes in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, was detected by reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain reaction amplification of messenger RNAs. The highest level of expression was from the nex-1 gene, with lower levels detected for the nex-2 and nex-3 genes. The expression of nex-1 was reduced in the Dauer larval stage relative to the other annexins, correlating with the absence of the spermathecal valves, a major site of nex-1 protein localization. Recombinant nex-1 protein was expressed in yeast, isolated by calcium-dependent binding to acidic phospholipids, and its membrane binding and aggregating activities characterized using bovine chromaffin granules as a representative intracellular substrate. Binding to granule membranes was promoted by calcium with half-maximal binding seen at 630 microM calcium. Chromaffin granule aggregation was similarly promoted by the nex-1 protein at 630 microM calcium. This low sensitivity to calcium suggests the annexin can only be activated in vivo near the plasma membrane or other sources of calcium. Sequences including the nex-1 promoter were fused to the gene for green fluorescent protein and this construct was introduced into nematodes by microinjection. Examination of transgenic offspring revealed specific nex-1 promoter activity in the pharynx, the hypodermal cells, the vulva, and the spermathecal valve, locations in which the annexin may function in collagen secretion/deposition and membrane-membrane interactions. A sensitive anti-nex-1 antibody labelled with rhodamine was injected into body cavities of the nematode but did not detect extracellular nex-1 protein. Therefore, this annexin is apparently cytosolic and may function on the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane of the spermathecal valve to chaperon the folding of this membrane during the opening and closing of the valve.

Abstract
The annexins comprise a family of soluble Ca2+- and phospholipid-binding proteins. Although highly similar in three-dimensional structure, different annexins are likely to exhibit different biochemical and functional properties and to play different roles in various membrane related events. Since it must be expected that these functional differences arise from differences in the characteristic thermodynamic parameters of these proteins, we performed high-sensitivity differential scanning microcalorimetry (DSC) and isothermal guanidinium hydrochloride (GdnHCl)-induced unfolding studies on annexin I and compared its thermodynamic parameters with those of annexin V published previously. The DSC data were analyzed using a model that permits quantitative treatment of the irreversible reaction. It turned out, however, that provided a heating rate of 2 K min-1 is used, unfolding of annexin I can be described satisfactorily in terms of a simple two-state reaction. At pH 6.0 annexin I is characterized by the following thermodynamic parameters: t1/2=61.8 degrees C, DeltaHcal=824 kJ mol-1 and DeltaCp=19 kJ mol-1 K-1. These parameters result in a stability value of DeltaG0D (20 degrees C)=51 kJ mol-1. The GdnHCl induced isothermal unfolding of annexin I in Mes buffer (pH 6.0), yielded DeltaG0D (buffer) values of 48, 60 and 36 kJ mol-1 at 20, 12 and 5 degrees C, respectively. These DeltaG0D values are in reasonable agreement with the values obtained from the DSC studies. The comparison of annexin I and annexin V under identical conditions (pH 8.0 or pH 6.0) shows that despite the pronounced structural homology of these two members of the annexin familiy, the stability parameters are remarkably different. This difference in stability is consistent with and provides a thermodynamic basis for the potential different in vivo functions proposed for these two annexins.

Abstract
A truncated form of annexin I, formed during Ca2+-induced translocation to neutrophil specific granules and secretory vesicles/plasma membranes, is generated through the action of an endogenous membrane protease. The cleavage of annexin I is inhibited by the metalloprotease inhibitor 1,10-phenanthroline as well as by Triton X-100 and dithiothreitol, classifying the protease as a membrane-bound, thiol-dependent metalloprotease. The cleavage site is located close to the N-terminal of annexin I, leaving a truncated form of the molecule, des1-8 annexin I, that contains the Ca2+-binding sites, as well as a number of phosphorylation sites of importance for the function of the protein. When assessing binding capacity to different neutrophil organelles, full-length annexin I bound to azurophil granules, specific granules, and secretory vesicles/plasma membranes, while des1-8 annexin I only bound to specific granules and secretory vesicles/plasma membranes, but not to azurophil granules (C. Sjölin, C. Dahlgren, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1281 (1996) 227-234). This implies that there are different mechanisms of binding to neutrophil organelles of full-length annexin I and the truncated form, and that cleavage of annexin I might be of regulatory importance for the degranulation process.

Abstract
At pH 6.0, the interaction of annexin I, a proteolytic fragment of annexin I and annexin V, was studied with monolayers composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylserine (DPPS), dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) or DPPS/DPPC mixtures (molar ratio 1:4). The measurements reveal that only annexin I shows a significant increase in the surface pressure at constant surface area in the absence of Ca2+ ions. We interpret these pressure changes as reflecting penetration of the protein. Kinetic analyses of the annexin I/monolayer interaction at pH 6.0 in the presence and absence of Ca2+ ions show differences between the interaction mechanisms that support the occurrence of a pH-regulated process. At pH 7.4, Ca2+ ions are required for the interaction.

Abstract
Annexins are Ca2+-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins with anti-inflammatory properties that are present on the surfaces of, and released from, certain cell types, such as leukocytes and secretory epithelia. The present study investigated the possibility that annexins may bind directly to bacterial endotoxin, inhibiting its interactions with cellular receptors or accessory binding proteins. An enzyme-linked immunoassay demonstrated calcium-dependent binding of low nanomolar concentrations of annexin-I and annexin-II p36/p11 heterotetramer to lipid A. In contrast, little or no annexin binding to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was detected under similar conditions. LPS-binding protein binding to lipid A was blocked by annexin-I, and the annexins inhibited nitrite generation in RAW 264.7 cells induced by lipid A but not that induced by LPS. The data suggest that direct binding of annexins to lipid A may represent a mechanism for suppressing cellular and systemic responses to endotoxin.

Abstract
Annexin I is a 36 kilodalton (kD) calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein which may have anti-inflammatory properties. Previous investigations which sampled lower respiratory tract epithelial lining fluid (ELF) via bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) have demonstrated that annexin I can be degraded in inflammatory lung disease. We analyzed BAL fluid from patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) to determine the effects of lung inflammation on the structure and activity of annexin I. Intact annexin I was absent in 17 out of 20 BAL fluid samples from patients with CF, due largely to degradation to a 33 kD protein. The three CF BAL fluids in which annexin I was detectable had very little or no unopposed neutrophil elastase activity in contrast to the 17 in which no annexin I was detectable. Annexin I was present in all BAL fluid samples from 10 normal volunteer (NV) subjects and 12 patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The 33 kD annexin I breakdown product was not detectable in samples from NV, but was detectable only in ILD patients with relatively high percentages of neutrophils on BAL differential cell counts. Annexin I appeared to be cleaved by neutrophil elastase at the N-terminal portion between Val-36 and Ser-37 to yield the 33 kD protein. Cleavage of the N-terminal portion of annexin I was accompanied by a marked change in the annexin I isoelectric point (pI) value (from 6.0 to 8.5-9.0) and greatly diminished annexin I functional activity. Our findings demonstrate that annexin I degradation in epithelial lining fluid is closely related to lung inflammation.

Abstract
Rapid and significant progress has been made in understanding lipid/protein interactions involving cytoskeletal components and the plasma membrane. Covalent and noncovalent lipid modifications of cytoskeletal proteins mediate their interaction with lipid bilayers. The application of biophysical techniques such as differential scanning colorimetry, neutron reflection, electron spin resonance, CD spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and hydrophobic photolabeling, allow various folding stages of proteins during electrostatic adsorption and hydrophobic insertion into lipid bilayers to be analyzed. Reconstitution of proteins into planar lipid films and liposomes help to understand the architecture of biological interfaces. During signaling events at plasma membrane interfaces, lipids are important for the regulation of catalytic protein functions. Protein/lipid interactions occur selectively and with a high degree of specificity and thus have to be considered as physiologically relevant processes with gaining impact on cell functions.

Abstract
We have previously shown that annexin I, a member of a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid and membrane binding proteins, interacts with profilin with high specificity and affinity. This finding further suggests that annexin I is involved through profilin in the regulation of membrane-cytoskeleton organization. We have investigated the consequences of a complex formed by these two proteins on the functions of both profilin and annexin I. Annexin I is able to modify the inhibitory effect of profilin on actin polymerization. This action is partial and the mechanism involved appears to be complex. On the other hand, the association between annexin I and profilin is sufficiently strong to inhibit the self-association of annexin I. The binding capacity of annexin I to liposomes containing phosphatidylserine, which mimics annexin I binding to membranes, is also decreased by profilin. This binding is nevertheless restored when phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate (PtdInsP2) is included in the liposomes. Finally, the capacity of annexin I to aggregate liposomes is also modified. It is worthwhile mentioning that the liposomes-binding and liposomes-aggregating activities of annexin I are independently regulated. The cell localization and functions of annexin I and profilin suggest that interaction between these two proteins may be directly implicated in the regulation of membrane-cytoskeleton. The phospholipid composition of membranes may be one of the modulating factors.

Abstract
The eukaryotic intracellular pathogen Leishmania mexicana resides inside macrophages contained within a membrane bound parasitophorous vacuole which, as it matures, acquires the characteristics of a late endosomal compartment. This study reports the selectivity of fusion of this compartment with other particle containing vacuoles. Phagosomes containing zymosan or live Listeria monocytogenes rapidly fused with L. mexicana parasitophorous vacuoles, while those containing latex beads or heat killed L. monocytogenes failed to do so. Fusigenicity of phagosomes was not primarily dependent on the receptor utilized for ingestion, as opsonization with defined ligands could not overcome the exclusion of either latex beads or heat killed organisms. However modulation of intracellular pH by pharmacological agents such as chloroquine and ammonium chloride increased delivery of live Listeria and also induced transfer of previously excluded particles. The absence of fusion correlated with the acquisition of annexin I, a putative lysosomal targeting, molecule, on the phagosome membrane. We propose that the acquisition of cellular membrane constituents such as annexin I during phagosome maturation can ultimately direct the fusion pathway of the vesicles formed and have described a model system to further document changes in vesicle fusigenicity within cells.

Abstract
Recent studies have revealed that binding of annexin I to phospholipids induces the formation of a second phospholipid binding site. It is shown that the N terminus on the concave side of membrane-bound annexin I is cleaved much faster by trypsin or cathepsin than the N terminus of the free protein. The reactivity of the unique disulfide bond located near the concave face was similarly increased by membrane binding. These results demonstrate that Ca(2+)-dependent membrane binding induces a conformational change on the concave side of the annexin I molecule and support the notion that this face of the molecule may contribute to the formation of the secondary membrane-binding site.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) migration into sites of inflammation is fundamental to the host defense response. Activation of endothelial cells and PMNs increases the expression or activation of adhesion molecules, culminating in rolling and subsequent adherence of these cells to the vascular wall. Further activation of adherent PMNs, possibly by endothelial cell ligands, leads, within a few minutes, to extravasation itself. This process is not clearly understood, but adhesion molecules or related proteins, as well as endogenous chemokines, may play an important role. The anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids delay extravasation, which implies that an inhibitory regulatory system exists. Resting PMNs contain abundant cytoplasmic lipocortin 1 (LC1, also called annexin I)', and the activity profile of this protein suggests that it could reduce PMN responsiveness. To investigate this we have assessed neutrophil transmigration both in vivo and in vitro and examined the content and subcellular distribution of LC1 in PMNs by fluorescence-activated cell-sorting (FACS) analysis, western blotting and confocal microscopy. We report that LC1 is mobilized and externalized following PMN adhesion to endothelial monolayers in vitro or to venular endothelium in vivo and that the end point of this process is a negative regulation of PMN transendothelial passage.

Abstract
S100C is a member of the S100 family of EF-hand-type Ca(2+)-binding proteins which are thought to bind to and thereby regulate the activity of cellular target proteins in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. An intracellular ligand for S100C is the Ca2+/phospholipid-binding protein annexin I and we show here that complex-formation is mediated through unique domains within S100C and annexin I. Using a proteolytically truncated annexin I derivative as well as a number of N-terminal annexin I peptides in liposome co-pelleting and ligand-blotting assays we map the S100C-binding site to the N-terminal 13 residues of annexin I. Similar analyses employing recombinantly expressed S100C mutants reveal that residues D91 to 194 in the unique C-terminal extension of this S100 protein are indispensable for annexin I binding. Interaction between S100C and an N-terminal annexin I peptide containing a tryptoplan at position 11 can also be monitored by fluorescence emission spectroscopy after tryptophan excitation. This analysis indicates that the local environment of the tryptophan in annexin I becomes less aqueous on S100C binding, suggesting a hydrophobic nature of the protein-protein interaction. Thus the structural basis of the annexin 1-S100C complex-formation probably resembles to a large extent that of the well-characterized annexin II-p11 interaction.

Abstract
Calpain, an intracellular calcium-dependent protease, is activated at cell membranes and cleaves cytoskeletal and submembranous proteins. Calpain is inferred to be a calcium-dependent regulator for cytoskeletal reorganization. Calpastatin, an endogenous calpain inhibitor, inhibits not only the proteolytic activity of calpain but also the binding of calpain to membranes. Calpain activity is strictly regulated by calcium and calpastatin. Calpain has two distinct sites for interaction with calpastatin, one the active site and the other an EF-hand domain. It is believed that calpain interacts with substrates through the same two sites. We discuss the regulation of membrane binding and the activity of calpain through these two sites.

Abstract
Annexin I is a member of a multigene family of Ca2+/phospholipid-binding proteins and a major substrate for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase, which has been implicated in membrane-related events along the endocytotic pathway, in particular in the sorting of internalized EGF receptors occurring in the multivesicular body. We analyzed in detail the intracellular distribution of this annexin by cell fractionation and immunoelectron microscopy. These studies used polyclonal as well as a set of species-specific monoclonal antibodies, whose epitopes were mapped to the lateral surface of the molecule next to a region thought to be involved in vesicle aggregation. Unexpectedly, the majority of annexin I was identified on early and not on multivesicular endosomes in a form that required micromolar levels of Ca2+ for the association. The specific cofractionation with early endosomes was also observed in transfected baby hamster kidney cells when the intracellular fate of ectopically expressed porcine annexin I was analyzed by using the species-specific monoclonal antibodies in Western blots of subcellular fractions. Interestingly, a truncation of the N-terminal 26, but not the N-terminal 13 residues of annexin I altered its intracellular distribution, shifting it from fractions containing early to those containing late and multivesicular endosomes. These findings underscore the regulatory importance of the N-terminal domain and provide evidence for an involvement of annexin I in early endocytotic processes.

Abstract
Annexin I belongs to a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding and membrane-binding proteins. Although many of the biochemical properties and the three-dimensional structure of this protein are known, its true physiological roles have yet to be thoroughly defined. Its putative functions include participation in the regulation of actin microfilaments dynamics, proposed after the discovery of an interaction with actin. In accordance with this hypothesis, we found that annexin I can also interact with profilin. We used different methods, overlay and surface plasmon resonance (BIAcore), to measure the parameters of the association equilibrium, i.e. k(on), k(off) and k(d). The affinity of annexin I for profilin was between 10(7) M and 10(8) M. High concentrations of KCl did not prevent the interaction, although a slight decrease in affinity was observed. Calcium, a modulator of annexin I functions interfered only marginally with the association, in a manner comparable to magnesium. Proteins or compounds known to interact with annexin I or profilin were found to inhibit the annexin-I--profilin interaction when added in the reaction medium. Recombinant profilin exhibited a slightly lower affinity than natural platelet protein when measured with BIAcore. Due to the submembrane localisation of annexin I and the regulatory activity of profilin on the cytoskeleton, an interaction between annexin I and profilin may therefore be implicated in the regulation of some cellular functions, particularly those governing membrane-cytoskeleton dynamic organization.

Abstract
A neutrophil annexin I-related protein, detected after translocation of cytosolic proteins to specific granules and secretory vesicles/plasma membrane (Sjölin et al. (1994) Biochem. J. 300, 325-330), has been characterized with respect to origin and organelle-binding properties. The annexin I-related protein is formed as a result of annexin I cleavage, and this occurs during translocation of annexin I to the specific granules and secretory vesicles/plasma membrane, but not when annexin I is translocated to azurophil granules. The cleavage required calcium and it was facilitated in the presence of specific granules or secretory vesicles/plasma membrane, but not in the presence of azurophil granules. We conclude that the membranes of specific granules and secretory vesicles/plasma membrane contain a protease which is able to cleave annexin I into a truncated 38 kDa fragment, which retains the ability to bind to these organelles. The azurophil granules lack the capacity to cleave annexin I as well as the ability to bind the 38 kDa fragment. These findings may implicate a role for annexin I in the divergent regulation of exocytosis of the different neutrophil granules.

Abstract
Recombinant human annexin I and a monoclonal antibody specific for this protein (mAb 1B) were used to investigate surface binding of this member of the annexin family of proteins to peripheral blood monocytes. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated trypsin-sensitive, saturable binding of annexin I to human peripheral blood monocytes but not to admixed lymphocytes. A monoclonal antibody that blocks the anti-phospholipase activity of annexin I also blocked its binding to monocytes. These findings suggest the presence of specific binding sites on monocytes. Furthermore, surface iodination, immunoprecipitation and SDS/PAGE analysis were used to identify two annexin I-binding proteins on the surface of monocytes with molecular masses of 15 kDa and 18 kDa respectively. The identification and characterization of these annexin I-binding molecules should help us to better understand the specific interactions of annexin I with monocytes that lead to down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cell functions.

Abstract
Annexin I is a member of the annexin family of calcium-dependent membrane binding proteins. The core domain of these proteins is similar in all annexins but the N-terminal domain is specific for each member. This domain is thought to regulate annexin function through phosphorylation. In annexin I, Ser-27 is one of the amino acids that can be phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Phosphorylations are thought to regulate some annexin I functions by increasing calcium requirement. Two mutants were prepared in this study: S27E and S27A proteins. The first mimics phosphorylation while the second prevents phosphorylation at residue 27. Wild-type annexin I and S27A mutant protein showed the same calcium dependence for phospholipid vesicles aggregation, while S27E mutant protein showed a higher calcium requirement and a low maximal extent of aggregation. By contrast, liposome binding and self-association required identical calcium concentrations for the wild-type and the two mutant proteins. To examine whether the regulation observed is due to modification of the N-terminal structure, we investigated conformational changes by using two approaches. Firstly we analysed proteinase sensibility. Limited proteolysis of the N-terminal tail showed similar patterns for the three proteins. Using drastic conditions of proteolysis, we observed strong resistance of the core domain to digestion in the presence of calcium. Secondly, since Ser-27 is located on the N-terminal domain that contains a tryptophan located at position 12, the fluorescence of this residue was analysed during Ca2+-binding of wild-type annexin I and S27E mutant protein. The results demonstrated that Ca2+ induces a slight change in the Trp environment of wild-type annexin I, corresponding to a burying of the residue. No changes in fluorescence features were observed with S27E mutant protein. The results obtained show that phosphorylation of the N-terminal tail plays a regulatory role in phospholipid vesicle aggregation, which is based on a mechanism distinct from protein self-association. This phosphorylation induces a conformational change in the tail probably related to aggregation property.
