[PMID: 38950816 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2024.06.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is considered one of the independent risk factors for heart failure, with a rather complex pathogenic machinery. Sorting nexins (SNXs), denoting a diverse family of cytoplasmic- and membrane-associated phosphoinositide-binding proteins, act as a pharmacological target against specific cardiovascular diseases including heart failure. Family member SNX5 was reported to play a pivotal role in a variety of biological processes. However, contribution of SNX5 to the development of cardiac hypertrophy, remains unclear. METHODS Mice underwent transverse aortic constriction (TAC) to induce cardiac hypertrophy and simulate pathological conditions. TAC model was validated using echocardiography and histological staining. Expression of SNX5 was assessed by western blotting. Then, SNX5 was delivered through intravenous administration of an adeno-associated virus serotype 9 carrying cTnT promoter (AAV9-cTnT-SNX5) to achieve SNX5 cardiac-specific overexpression. To assess the impact of SNX5, morphological analysis, echocardiography, histological staining, hypertrophic biomarkers, and cardiomyocyte contraction were evaluated. To unravel potential molecular events associated with SNX5, interactome analysis, fluorescence co-localization, and membrane protein profile were evaluated. RESULTS Our results revealed significant downregulated protein level of SNX5 in TAC-induced hypertrophic hearts in mice. Interestingly, cardiac-specific overexpression of SNX5 improved cardiac function, with enhanced left ventricular ejection fraction, fraction shortening, as well as reduced cardiac fibrosis. Mechanistically, SNX5 directly bound to Rab11a, increasing membrane accumulation of Rab11a (a Rab GTPase). Afterwards, this intricate molecular interaction upregulated the membrane content of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6), a key regulator against cardiac hypertrophy. Our comprehensive assessment of siRab11a expression in HL-1 cells revealed its role in antagonism of LRP6 membrane accumulation under SNX5 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that binding of SNX5 with LRP6 triggers their membrane translocation through Rab11a assisting, defending against cardiac remodeling and cardiac dysfunction under pressure overload. These findings provide new insights into the previously unrecognized role of SNX5 in the progression of cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe, post-infectious sequela of SARS-CoV-2 infection1,2, yet the pathophysiological mechanism connecting the infection to the broad inflammatory syndrome remains unknown. Here we leveraged a large set of samples from patients with MIS-C to identify a distinct set of host proteins targeted by patient autoantibodies including a particular autoreactive epitope within SNX8, a protein involved in regulating an antiviral pathway associated with MIS-C pathogenesis. In parallel, we also probed antibody responses from patients with MIS-C to the complete SARS-CoV-2 proteome and found enriched reactivity against a distinct domain of the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein. The immunogenic regions of the viral nucleocapsid and host SNX8 proteins bear remarkable sequence similarity. Consequently, we found that many children with anti-SNX8 autoantibodies also have cross-reactive T cells engaging both the SNX8 and the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein epitopes. Together, these findings suggest that patients with MIS-C develop a characteristic immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein that is associated with cross-reactivity to the self-protein SNX8, demonstrating a mechanistic link between the infection and the inflammatory syndrome, with implications for better understanding a range of post-infectious autoinflammatory diseases.

Sorting nexin 3 exacerbates doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy via regulation of TFRC-dependent ferroptosis. Acta Pharm Sin B 2023; 13:4875-4892. [PMID: 38045054 PMCID: PMC10692393 DOI: 10.1016/j.apsb.2023.08.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The clinical utilization of doxorubicin (Dox) in various malignancies is restrained by its major adverse effect: irreversible cardiomyopathy. Extensive studies have been done to explore the prevention of Dox cardiomyopathy. Currently, ferroptosis has been shown to participate in the incidence and development of Dox cardiomyopathy. Sorting Nexin 3 (SNX3), the retromer-associated cargo binding protein with important physiological functions, was identified as a potent therapeutic target for cardiac hypertrophy in our previous study. However, few study has shown whether SNX3 plays a critical role in Dox-induced cardiomyopathy. In this study, a decreased level of SNX3 in Dox-induced cardiomyopathy was observed. Cardiac-specific Snx3 knockout (Snx3-cKO) significantly alleviated cardiomyopathy by downregulating Dox-induced ferroptosis significantly. SNX3 was further demonstrated to exacerbate Dox-induced cardiomyopathy via induction of ferroptosis in vivo and in vitro, and cardiac-specific Snx3 transgenic (Snx3-cTg) mice were more susceptible to Dox-induced ferroptosis and cardiomyopathy. Mechanistically, SNX3 facilitated the recycling of transferrin 1 receptor (TFRC) via direct interaction, disrupting iron homeostasis, increasing the accumulation of iron, triggering ferroptosis, and eventually exacerbating Dox-induced cardiomyopathy. Overall, these findings established a direct SNX3-TFRC-ferroptosis positive regulatory axis in Dox-induced cardiomyopathy and suggested that targeting SNX3 provided a new effective therapeutic strategy for Dox-induced cardiomyopathy through TFRC-dependent ferroptosis.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting the aging population. Particularly, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play vital roles in PD, while the role of lncRNA SNHG8 in PD remains to be further explored. C57BL/6 mice were induced by rotenone to establish a PD model in vivo, and then the dopaminergic (DA) neuronal damage and locomotor dysfunction in rotenone-treated mice were evaluated. Murine DA cell line MN9D was treated with rotenone to establish a cellular PD model in vitro. Then, the viability, apoptosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and autophagy in rotenone-treated MN9D cells were assessed. Expression levels of SNHG8, microRNA-421-3p (miR-421-3p), and sorting nexin 8 (SNX8) in the substantia nigra (SN) of PD mice and rotenone-treated MN9D cells were detected. The interaction between SNHG8 and miR-421-3p, and the targeting relationship between SNX8 and miR-421-3p were confirmed. SNHG8 and SNX8 expression levels were decreased while miR-421-3p expression level was increased in the SN of PD mice and rotenone-treated MN9D cells. Upregulated SNHG8 ameliorated dopaminergic neuron damage and locomotor dysfunction in PD mice. Meanwhile, upregulated SNHG8 enhanced viability, diminished apoptosis, and alleviated mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and autophagy in rotenone-treated MN9D cells. Mechanistically, SNHG8 bound to miR-421-3p, and miR-421-3p targeted SNX8. Overexpressed SNHG8 downregulates miR-421-3p to alleviate rotenone-induced dopaminergic neuron injury in PD via upregulating SNX8.

Abstract
Nutrient deprivation ("starvation") is a major catabolic stress faced by mammalian cells in both pathological and physiological situations. Starvation induces autophagosome biogenesis in the immediate vicinity of ER and leads to lysosome spatial repositioning, but little is known about the consequences of nutritional stress on endosomes. Here, we report that starvation induces tethering of endosomal tubules to ER subregions, fostering autophagosome assembly. We show that this endosomal membrane generation is regulated by sorting nexin 1 (SNX1) protein and is important for the autophagic response. These newly formed SNX1 endosomal tubules establish connections with ER subdomains engaged in early autophagic machinery mobilization. Such endosome-ER transient tethers are regulated by a local dialog between SNX2, an endosomal partner of SNX1, and VAPB, an ER protein associated with autophagy initiation stage regulation. We propose that in a very early response to starvation, SNX1 and SNX2 cooperation induces and regulates endosomal membrane tubulation towards VAPB-positive ER subdomains involved in autophagosome biogenesis, highlighting the contribution of early endosomes in the cellular response to nutritional stress.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) are a family of membrane-binding proteins known to play a critical role in regulating endocytic pathway sorting and endosomal membrane trafficking. Among them, SNX1 and SNX2 are members of the SNX-BAR subfamily and possess a membrane-curvature domain and a phosphoinositide-binding domain, which enables their stabilization at the phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P)-positive surface of endosomes. While their binding to PI3P-positive platforms facilitates interaction with endosomal partners and stabilization at the endosomal membrane, their SNX-BAR region is pivotal for generating membrane tubulation from endosomal compartments. In this context, their primary identified biological roles-and their partnership-are tightly associated with the retromer and endosomal SNX-BAR sorting complex for promoting exit 1 complex trafficking, facilitating the transport of cargoes from early endosomes to the secretory pathway. However, recent literature indicates that these proteins also possess biological functions in other aspects of endosomal features and sorting processes. Notably, SNX2 has been found to regulate endosome-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact sites through its interaction with VAP proteins at the ER membrane. Furthermore, data from our laboratory show that SNX1 and SNX2 are involved in the tubulation of early endosomes toward ER sites associated with autophagy initiation during starvation. These findings shed light on a novel role of SNXs in inter-organelle tethering and communication. In this concise review, we will explore the non-retromer functions of SNX1 and SNX2, specifically focusing on their involvement in endosomal membrane dynamics during stress sensing and autophagy-associated processes.

Abstract
Sorting nexin 8 (SNX8), a member of sorting nexin protein family, plays important roles in endocytosis, endosomal sorting, and innate immune response. To date, a few homologs of SNX8 have been found in fish except in mammals. In this study, a teleost SNX8 cDNA was identified from grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus). CiSNX8 was up-regulated significantly after infection with poly I:C or GCRV. We found that SNX8 was mainly distributed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in CIK cells. Further analysis indicated that CiSNX8 might negatively regulate RLR signaling pathway that is quite distinct from mammalian SNX8. In addition, CiSNX8 could interact with MAVS, STING, TBK1, IRF3 and IRF7. Either wild type CiSNX8 or mutants of N-terminal PX domain (aa 1-245) and C-terminal BAR domain (aa 256-519) could associate with STING. These results suggested that fish SNX8 participated in innate immune response through different molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is a highly conserved and ubiquitously expressed metalloprotease that degrades insulin and several other intermediate-size peptides. For many decades, IDE had been assumed to be involved primarily in hepatic insulin clearance, a key process that regulates availability of circulating insulin levels for peripheral tissues. Emerging evidence, however, suggests that IDE has several other important physiological functions relevant to glucose and insulin homeostasis, including the regulation of insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Investigation of mice with tissue-specific genetic deletion of Ide in the liver and pancreatic β-cells (L-IDE-KO and B-IDE-KO mice, respectively) has revealed additional roles for IDE in the regulation of hepatic insulin action and sensitivity. In this review, we discuss current knowledge about IDE’s function as a regulator of insulin secretion and hepatic insulin sensitivity, both evaluating the classical view of IDE as an insulin protease and also exploring evidence for several non-proteolytic functions. Insulin proteostasis and insulin sensitivity have both been highlighted as targets controlling blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes, so a clearer understanding the physiological functions of IDE in pancreas and liver could led to the development of novel therapeutics for the treatment of this disease.

Abstract
Disruptions in neural tube (NT) closure result in neural tube defects (NTDs). To understand the molecular processes required for mammalian NT closure, we investigated the role of Snx3, a sorting nexin gene. Snx3-/- mutant mouse embryos display a fully-penetrant cranial NTD. In vivo, we observed decreased canonical WNT target gene expression in the cranial neural epithelium of the Snx3-/- embryos and a defect in convergent extension of the neural epithelium. Snx3-/- cells show decreased WNT secretion, and live cell imaging reveals aberrant recycling of the WNT ligand-binding protein WLS and mis-trafficking to the lysosome for degradation. The importance of SNX3 in WNT signaling regulation is demonstrated by rescue of NT closure in Snx3-/- embryos with a WNT agonist. The potential for SNX3 to function in human neurulation is revealed by a point mutation identified in an NTD-affected individual that results in functionally impaired SNX3 that does not colocalize with WLS and the degradation of WLS in the lysosome. These data indicate that Snx3 is crucial for NT closure via its role in recycling WLS in order to control levels of WNT signaling.

Abstract
To effectively defend against microbial pathogens, the host cells mount antiviral innate immune responses by producing interferons (IFNs), and hundreds of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). Upon recognition of cytoplasmic viral or bacterial DNAs and abnormal endogenous DNAs, the DNA sensor cGAS synthesizes 2',3'-cGAMP that induces STING (stimulator of interferon genes) undergoing conformational changes, cellular trafficking, and the activation of downstream factors. Therefore, STING plays a pivotal role in preventing microbial pathogen infection by sensing DNAs during pathogen invasion. This review is dedicated to the recent advances in the dynamic regulations of STING activation, intracellular trafficking, and post-translational modifications (PTMs) by the host and microbial proteins.

Abstract
The mitochondrial virus-induced signaling adaptor (VISA, also called mitochondrial antiviral signaling, MAVS) protein is a central adaptor in the innate immune response to cytosolic viral RNA. Viral infection causes the aggregation of VISA, which is important for its recruitment of downstream signaling components. How VISA aggregation is regulated remains unknown. Here, we found that sorting nexin 8 (SNX8) is a positive regulator of the RNA virus-triggered induction of downstream effector genes and innate immune response. The brains and lungs of Snx8-/- mice infected with RNA viruses exhibited lower serum cytokine levels and higher viral titers than those of wild-type mice, resulting in higher lethality. Mechanistically, viral infection induced the translocation of SNX8 from the cytosol to mitochondria and its increased association with VISA, leading to VISA aggregation, its recruitment of downstream signaling components and the induction of downstream antiviral genes. Our findings suggest that SNX8 is a critical component of the RIG-I-like receptor (RLR)-mediated innate immune response by modulating VISA aggregation and activation.

Abstract
The endolysosomal system is a highly dynamic network of membranes for degradation and recycling. During endosomal maturation, cargo molecules destined for lysosomal degradation are progressively concentrated through continuous rounds of fusion and fission reactions concomitant with inbound and outbound membrane fluxes. Of the cargo molecules delivered to endosomes, about two-thirds are rescued from degradation and recycled for reuse. This balance between degradation and recycling is essential to preserve the proteostatic plasticity of the cell under variable physiological demands. Cargo retrieval from endosomes involves several sorting complexes with stable core compositions that associate with multidomain regulatory proteins, consequently displaying complex interaction networks. The vacuolar protein sorting 29 (VPS29) has emerged as a central scaffold that coordinates the physical assembly of retrieval complexes with regulatory components in what appears to be an elegant solution for regulating distinct retrieval stations. This review summarizes the VPS29-binding partners and its integration into retrieval complexes for endosomal sorting and trafficking.

Abstract
MITA (also called STING) is a central adaptor protein in innate immune response to cytosolic DNA. Cellular trafficking of MITA from the ER to perinuclear microsomes after DNA virus infection is critical for MITA activation and onset of innate antiviral response. Here we found that SNX8 is a component of DNA-triggered induction of downstream effector genes and innate immune response. Snx8-/- mice infected with the DNA virus HSV-1 exhibited lower serum cytokine levels and higher viral titers in the brains, resulting in higher lethality. Mechanistically, SNX8 recruited the class III phosphatylinositol 3-kinase VPS34 to MITA, which is required for trafficking of MITA from the ER to perinuclear microsomes. Our findings suggest that SNX8 is a critical component in innate immune response to cytosolic DNA and DNA virus. Infection by virus, such as the DNA virus herpes simplex virus 1, induces the host cells to express proteins that mediate antiviral immune response. The protein called MITA plays an essential role in the process of antiviral immune response. After viral infection, MITA traffics from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to perinuclear punctuate structures, a process required for its activation and induction of downstream antiviral genes. How the trafficking of MITA is regulated remains enigmatic. In this study, we found that a protein called SNX8 plays a critical role in regulation of MITA trafficking from the ER to perinuclear punctuate structures. SNX8 does this by recruiting the VPS34-containing translocon machinery to MITA. Deficiency of SNX8 impaired antiviral immune response and rendered the mice more sensitive to DNA virus-induced death. Our results suggest that SNX8 is a critical component in antiviral immune response to DNA virus.

Diabetologia 2018; 61:727-737.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We hypothesised that renal sorting nexin 5 (SNX5) regulates the insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) and, thus, circulating insulin levels. We therefore studied the dynamic interaction between SNX5 and IDE in human renal proximal tubule cells (hRPTCs), as well as in rat and mouse kidneys. METHODS The regulation of IDE by SNX5 expressed in the kidney was studied in vitro and in vivo. Snx5 or mock siRNA was added to immortalised hRPTCs (passage <20) in culture or selectively infused, via osmotic mini-pump, into the remnant kidney of uninephrectomised mice and rats. RESULTS SNX5 co-localised with IDE at the plasma membrane and perinuclear area of hRPTCs and in the brush border membrane of proximal tubules of human, rat, and mouse kidneys. Insulin increased the co-localisation and co-immunoprecipitation of SNX5 and IDE in hRPTCs. Silencing SNX5 in hRPTCs decreased IDE expression and activity. Renal-selective silencing of Snx5 (SNX5 protein: 100 ± 25 vs 29 ± 10, p < 0.05 [% of control]) in C57Bl/6J mice decreased IDE protein (100 ± 13 vs 57 ± 6, p < 0.05 [% of control]) and urinary insulin excretion, impaired the responses to insulin and glucose, and increased blood insulin and glucose levels. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) had increased blood insulin and glucose levels and decreased renal SNX5 (100 ± 27 vs 29 ± 6, p < 0.05 [% of control]) and IDE (100 ± 5 vs 75 ± 4, p < 0.05 [% of control]) proteins, compared with normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Kidney Snx5-depleted WKY rats also had increased blood insulin and glucose levels. The expression of SNX5 and IDE was decreased in RPTCs from SHRs and hypertensive humans compared with cells from normotensive volunteers, indicating a common cause for hyperinsulinaemia and hypertension. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Renal SNX5 positively regulates IDE expression and function. This study is the first to demonstrate the novel and crucial role of renal SNX5 in insulin and glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Begomoviruses are exclusively transmitted by whiteflies in a persistent circulative manner and cause considerable economic losses to crop production worldwide. Previous studies have shown that begomoviruses accumulate in vesicle-like structures in whitefly midgut cells and that clathrin-mediated endocytosis is responsible for their internalization. However, the process by which begomoviruses are trafficked within whitefly midgut cells remains largely unknown. In this study, we investigated the roles of vesicle trafficking in the transport of Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), a begomovirus that has spread to over 50 countries and caused extensive damage to a range of important crops, within midgut cells of whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). By disrupting vesicle trafficking using RNA silencing and inhibitors, we demonstrated that the early steps of endosomal trafficking are important for the intracellular transport of TYLCV in the whitefly midgut. In addition, our data show that, unlike many animal viruses, TYCLV is trafficked within cells in a manner independent of recycling endosomes, late endosomes, lysosomes, the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum. Instead, our results suggest that TYLCV might be transported directly from early endosomes to the basal plasma membrane and released into the hemolymph. Silencing of the sorting nexin Snx12, which may be involved in membrane tubulation, resulted in fewer viral particles in hemolymph; this suggests that the tubular endosomal network may be involved in the transport of TYLCV. Our results also support a role for the endo-lysosomal system in viral degradation. We further showed that the functions of vector early endosomes and sorting nexin Snx12 are conserved in the transmission of several other begomoviruses. Overall, our data indicate the importance of early endosomes and the tubular endosomal network in begomovirus transmission.

Abstract
Deciphering microbial virulence mechanisms is of fundamental importance for the treatment of infectious diseases. Legionella pneumophila, the causative agent of Legionnaires’ pneumonia, hijacks a variety of host cell factors during intracellular growth. Herein, we uncovered the molecular mechanism by which the L. pneumophila effector RidL targets the host VPS29, a scaffolding protein of endosome-associated sorting machineries. Using X-ray crystallography, we determined the structure of RidL, both alone and in complex with retromer. We found that RidL uses a hairpin loop similar to that present in cellular ligands to interact with retromer. This sophisticated molecular mimicry allows RidL to outcompete cellular ligands for retromer binding, explaining how L. pneumophila utilizes the endosomal sorting machinery to facilitate targeting of effector proteins. Microbial pathogens employ sophisticated virulence strategies to cause infections in humans. The intracellular pathogen Legionella pneumophila encodes RidL to hijack the host scaffold protein VPS29, a component of retromer and retriever complexes critical for endosomal cargo recycling. Here, we determined the crystal structure of L. pneumophila RidL in complex with the human VPS29–VPS35 retromer subcomplex. A hairpin loop protruding from RidL inserts into a conserved pocket on VPS29 that is also used by cellular ligands, such as Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16 domain family member 5 (TBC1D5) and VPS9-ankyrin repeat protein for VPS29 binding. Consistent with the idea of molecular mimicry in protein interactions, RidL outcompeted TBC1D5 for binding to VPS29. Furthermore, the interaction of RidL with retromer did not interfere with retromer dimerization but was essential for association of RidL with retromer-coated vacuolar and tubular endosomes. Our work thus provides structural and mechanistic evidence into how RidL is targeted to endosomal membranes.

Abstract
IFNγ is a cytokine that plays a key role in host defense against intracellular pathogens. In addition to the canonical JAK-STAT1 pathway, IFNγ also activates an IKKβ-mediated noncanonical signaling pathway that is essential for induction of a subset of downstream effector genes. The molecular mechanisms and functional significance of this IFNγ-triggered noncanonical pathway remains enigmatic. Here, we identified sorting nexin 8 (SNX8) as an important component of the IFNγ-triggered noncanonical signaling pathway. SNX8-deficiency impaired IFNγ-triggered induction of a subset of downstream genes. Snx8-/- mice infected with Listeria monocytogenes exhibited lower serum cytokine levels and higher bacterial loads in the livers and spleens, resulting in higher lethality. Mechanistically, SNX8 interacted with JAK1 and IKKβ and promoted their association. IFNγ induced JAK1-mediated phosphorylation of SNX8 at Tyr95 and Tyr126, which promoted the recruitment of IKKβ to the JAK1 complex. SNX8-deficiency impaired IFNγ-induced oligomerization and autophosphorylation of IKKβ at Ser177, which is critical for selective induction of downstream genes. Our findings suggest that SNX8 acts as a link for IFNγ-triggered noncanonical signaling pathway, which induces a subset of downstream genes important for host defense against L. monocytogenes infection.

Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis is an important human pathogen. This obligate intracellular bacterium grows inside the eukaryotic cell in a membrane-bound compartment, the inclusion. Recent global approaches describe the interactions of C. trachomatis with its host cell and indicate the inclusion is an intracellular trafficking hub embedded into the cellular vesicular trafficking pathways recruiting subunits of the retromer protein complex of the host cell. Here we review these recent developments in deciphering Chlamydia-host cell interactions with emphasis on the role of the retromer complex.

Abstract
The endosomal network maintains cellular homeostasis by sorting, recycling and degrading endocytosed cargoes. Retromer organizes the endosomal sorting pathway in conjunction with various sorting nexin (SNX) proteins. The SNX27–retromer complex has recently been identified as a major endosomal hub that regulates endosome-to-plasma membrane recycling by preventing lysosomal entry of cargoes. Here, we show that SNX27 directly interacts with FAM21, which also binds retromer, within the Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein and SCAR homologue (WASH) complex. This interaction is required for the precise localization of SNX27 at an endosomal subdomain as well as for recycling of SNX27-retromer cargoes. Furthermore, FAM21 prevents cargo transport to the Golgi apparatus by controlling levels of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate, which facilitates cargo dissociation at the Golgi. Together, our results demonstrate that the SNX27–retromer–WASH complex directs cargoes to the plasma membrane by blocking their transport to lysosomes and the Golgi. Endosomes maintain cellular homeostasis by sorting, recycling and degrading endocytosed cargoes. Here the authors show that the SNX27-retromer-WASH complex acts as a hub to direct cargoes to the plasma membrane by blocking their transport to lysosomes and Golgi apparatus.

CLASP interacts with sorting nexin 1 to link microtubules and auxin transport via PIN2 recycling in Arabidopsis thaliana. Dev Cell 2013; 24:649-59. [PMID: 23477787 DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2013.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 117] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2012] [Revised: 10/23/2012] [Accepted: 02/06/2013] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Polarized movement of auxin generates concentration gradients within plant tissues to control cell division patterns and growth direction by modulating microtubule organization. In this study, we identify a reverse mechanism, wherein microtubules influence polar auxin transport. We show that the microtubule-associated protein CLASP interacts with the retromer component sorting nexin 1 (SNX1) to mediate an association between endosomes and microtubules. clasp-1 null mutants display aberrant SNX1 endosomes, as do wild-type plants treated with microtubule-depolymerizing drugs. Consistent with SNX1's role in trafficking of the auxin efflux carrier PIN-FORMED2 (PIN2), clasp-1 mutant plants have enhanced PIN2 degradation, and PIN2 movement to lytic vacuoles is rapidly induced by depolymerization of microtubules. clasp-1 mutants display aberrant auxin distribution and exhibit numerous auxin-related phenotypes. In addition to mechanistically linking auxin transport and microtubules, our data identify a ubiquitous endosome-microtubule association in plants.

Snx3 regulates recycling of the transferrin receptor and iron assimilation. Cell Metab 2013; 17:343-52. [PMID: 23416069 PMCID: PMC3595351 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmet.2013.01.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 88] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2012] [Revised: 10/21/2012] [Accepted: 01/23/2013] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Sorting of endocytic ligands and receptors is critical for diverse cellular processes. The physiological significance of endosomal sorting proteins in vertebrates, however, remains largely unknown. Here we report that sorting nexin 3 (Snx3) facilitates the recycling of transferrin receptor (Tfrc) and thus is required for the proper delivery of iron to erythroid progenitors. Snx3 is highly expressed in vertebrate hematopoietic tissues. Silencing of Snx3 results in anemia and hemoglobin defects in vertebrates due to impaired transferrin (Tf)-mediated iron uptake and its accumulation in early endosomes. This impaired iron assimilation can be complemented with non-Tf iron chelates. We show that Snx3 and Vps35, a component of the retromer, interact with Tfrc to sort it to the recycling endosomes. Our findings uncover a role of Snx3 in regulating Tfrc recycling, iron homeostasis, and erythropoiesis. Thus, the identification of Snx3 provides a genetic tool for exploring erythropoiesis and disorders of iron metabolism.

Abstract
The lysosomal adaptor protein p18 is an essential anchor of a scaffolding complex for the mTORC1 and MAPK pathways, which play crucial roles in controlling cell growth and energy homeostasis. To elucidate the in vivo function of the p18-mediated pathway, we conditionally ablated p18 in the mouse epidermis. Mutant mice were born with severe defects in formation of the stratum corneum and died within 12 h after birth due to dehydration caused by loss of skin barrier function. Mutant epidermal cells can grow and differentiate into granular cells, but exhibit functional defects in corneocyte maturation. Electron microscopy identified abnormal immature cells, overlying the mutant granular cells, which accumulated autophagosomes, glycogen granules and dead nuclei. Cell culture analysis showed that loss of p18 attenuated lysosome function, resulting in accumulation of immature lysosomes and autophagosomes. Analyses of lysosome behavior revealed that p18 is required for functional interaction between lysosomes and target organelles including autophagosomes. These findings suggest that p18-mediated pathways control lysosome-mediated catabolic processes crucial role for development of mouse epidermis.

Abstract
Arrestin-clan proteins are folded alike, a feature responsible for their recent grouping in a single clan. In human, it includes the well-characterized visual and β-arrestins, the arrestin domain-containing proteins (ARRDCs), isoforms of the retromer subunit VPS26, and DSCR3, a protein involved in Down syndrome. A new arrestin-fold-predicted protein, RGP1, described here may join the clan. Unicellular organisms like the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae or the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum harbor VPS26, DSCR3, and RGP1 isoforms as well as arrestin-related trafficking adaptors or ADCs, but true arrestins are missing. Functionally, members of the arrestin clan have generally a scaffolding role in various membrane protein trafficking events. Despite their similar structure, the mechanism of cargo recognition and internalization and the nature of recruited partners differ for the different members. Based on the recent literature, true arrestins (visual and β-arrestins), ARRDCs, and yeast ARTS are the closest from a functional point of view.
