Cargo selective vesicle tethering: The structural basis for binding of specific cargo proteins by the Golgi tether component TBC1D23. SCIENCE ADVANCES 2024; 10:eadl0608.

Abstract
The Golgi-localized golgins golgin-97 and golgin-245 capture transport vesicles arriving from endosomes via the protein TBC1D23. The amino-terminal domain of TBC1D23 binds to the golgins, and the carboxyl-terminal domain of TBC1D23 captures the vesicles, but how it recognizes specific vesicles was unclear. A search for binding partners of the carboxyl-terminal domain unexpectedly revealed direct binding to carboxypeptidase D and syntaxin-16, known cargo proteins of the captured vesicles. Binding is via a threonine-leucine-tyrosine (TLY) sequence present in both proteins next to an acidic cluster. A crystal structure reveals how this acidic TLY motif binds to TBC1D23. An acidic TLY motif is also present in the tails of other endosome-to-Golgi cargo, and these also bind TBC1D23. Structure-guided mutations in the carboxyl-terminal domain that disrupt motif binding in vitro also block vesicle capture in vivo. Thus, TBC1D23 attached to golgin-97 and golgin-245 captures vesicles by a previously undescribed mechanism: the recognition of a motif shared by cargo proteins carried by the vesicle.

Abstract
Large dense core vesicles (LDCVs) mediate the regulated release of neuropeptides and peptide hormones. HID-1 is a trans-Golgi network (TGN) localized peripheral membrane protein contributing to LDCV formation. There is no information about HID-1 structure or domain architecture, and thus it remains unknown how HID-1 binds to the TGN and performs its function. We report that the N-terminus of HID-1 mediates membrane binding through a myristoyl group with a polybasic amino acid patch but lacks specificity for the TGN. In addition, we show that the C-terminus serves as the functional domain. Indeed, this isolated domain, when tethered to the TGN, can rescue the neuroendocrine secretion and sorting defects observed in HID-1 KO cells. Finally, we report that a point mutation within that domain, identified in patients with endocrine and neurological deficits, leads to loss of function.

Abstract
Carboxypeptidase E (CPE), an essential enzyme in the biosynthetic production line of most peptide hormones and neuropeptides, is predominantly expressed in endocrine tissues and in the nervous system. CPE is active in acidic environments where it cleaves the C'-terminal basic residues of peptide precursors to generate their bioactive form. Consequently, this highly conserved enzyme regulates numerous fundamental biological processes. Here, we combined live-cell microscopy and molecular analysis to examine the intracellular distribution and secretion dynamics of fluorescently tagged CPE. We show that, in non-endocrine cells, tagged-CPE is a soluble luminal protein that is efficiently exported from the ER via the Golgi apparatus to lysosomes. The C'-terminal conserved amphipathic helix serves as a lysosomal and secretory granule targeting and a secretion motif. Following secretion, CPE may be reinternalized into the lysosomes of neighboring cells.

Abstract
Aberrant glucose homeostasis is the most common metabolic disturbance affecting one in ten adults worldwide. Prediabetic hyperglycemia due to dysfunctional interactions between different human tissues, including pancreas and liver, constitutes the largest risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes. However, this early stage of metabolic disease has received relatively little attention. Microphysiological tissue models that emulate tissue crosstalk offer emerging opportunities to study metabolic interactions. Here, a novel modular multitissue organ-on-a-chip device is presented that allows for integrated and reciprocal communication between different 3D primary human tissue cultures. Precisely controlled heterologous perfusion of each tissue chamber is achieved through a microfluidic single "synthetic heart" pneumatic actuation unit connected to multiple tissue chambers via specific configuration of microchannel resistances. On-chip coculture experiments of organotypic primary human liver spheroids and intact primary human islets demonstrate insulin secretion and hepatic insulin response dynamics at physiological timescales upon glucose challenge. Integration of transcriptomic analyses with promoter motif activity data of 503 transcription factors reveals tissue-specific interacting molecular networks that underlie β-cell stress in prediabetic hyperglycemia. Interestingly, liver and islet cultures show surprising counter-regulation of transcriptional programs, emphasizing the power of microphysiological coculture to elucidate the systems biology of metabolic crosstalk.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:11277.

Abstract
A clear relationship between the tau assemblies and toxicity has still to be established. To correlate the tau conformation with its proteotoxic effect in vivo, we developed an innovative cell-worm-based approach. HEK293 cells expressing tau P301L under a tetracycline-inducible system (HEK T-Rex) were employed to produce different tau assemblies whose proteotoxic potential was evaluated using C. elegans. Lysates from cells induced for five days significantly reduced the worm's locomotor activity. This toxic effect was not related to the total amount of tau produced by cells or to its phosphorylation state but was related to the formation of multimeric tau assemblies, particularly tetrameric ones. We investigated the applicability of this approach for testing compounds acting against oligomeric tau toxicity, using doxycycline (Doxy) as a prototype drug. Doxy affected tau solubility and promoted the disassembly of already formed toxic aggregates in lysates of cells induced for five days. These effects translated into a dose-dependent protective action in C. elegans. These findings confirm the validity of the combined HEK T-Rex cells and the C. elegans-based approach as a platform for pharmacological screening.

Abstract
The time course of signaling by peptide hormones, neural peptides, and other neuromodulators depends on their storage inside dense core vesicles (DCVs). Adaptor protein 3 (AP-3) assembles the membrane proteins that confer regulated release of DCVs and is thought to promote their trafficking from endosomes directly to maturing DCVs. We now find that regulated monoamine release from DCVs requires sorting nexin 5 (SNX5). Loss of SNX5 disrupts trafficking of the vesicular monoamine transporter (VMAT) to DCVs. The mechanism involves a role for SNX5 in retrograde transport of VMAT from endosomes to the TGN. However, this role for SNX5 conflicts with the proposed function of AP-3 in trafficking from endosomes directly to DCVs. We now identify a transient role for AP-3 at the TGN, where it associates with DCV cargo. Thus, retrograde transport from endosomes by SNX5 enables DCV assembly at the TGN by AP-3, resolving the apparent antagonism. A novel role for AP-3 at the TGN has implications for other organelles that also depend on this adaptor.

Abstract
Golgi-associated retrograde protein (GARP) and endosome-associated recycling protein (EARP) complexes are membrane-tethering heterotetramers located at the trans-Golgi network and recycling endosomes, respectively. GARP and EARP share the three subunits VPS51, VPS52, and VPS53, while VPS50 is unique to EARP and VPS54 to GARP. Retrograde transport of endosomal cargos to the TGN is mediated by GARP and endocytic recycling by EARP. Here we report two unrelated individuals with homozygous variants in VPS50, a splice variant (c.1978-1G>T) and an in-frame deletion (p.Thr608del). Both patients had severe developmental delay, postnatal microcephaly, corpus callosum hypoplasia, seizures and irritability, transient neonatal cholestasis, and failure to thrive. Light and transmission electron microscopy of liver from one revealed absence of gamma-glutamyltransferase at bile canaliculi, with mislocalization to basolateral membranes, and abnormal tight junctions. Using patient-derived fibroblasts, we identified reduced VPS50 protein accompanied by reduced levels of VPS52 and VPS53. While transferrin-receptor internalization rate was normal in cells of both patients, recycling of the receptor to the plasma membrane was significantly delayed. These data underscore the importance of VPS50 and/or the EARP complex in endocytic recycling and suggest an additional function in establishing cell polarity and trafficking between basolateral and apical membranes in hepatocytes. Individuals with biallelic hypomorphic variants in VPS50, VPS51 or VPS53 show an overarching neurodegenerative disorder with severe developmental delay, intellectual disability, microcephaly, early-onset epilepsy, and variable atrophy of the cerebellum, cerebrum, and/or brainstem. The term "GARP/EARP deficiency" designates disorders in such individuals.

Abstract
Insulin secretory granules (SGs) mediate the regulated secretion of insulin, which is essential for glucose homeostasis. The basic machinery responsible for this regulated exocytosis consists of specific proteins present both at the plasma membrane and on insulin SGs. The protein composition of insulin SGs thus dictates their release properties, yet the mechanisms controlling insulin SG formation, which determine this molecular composition, remain poorly understood. VPS41, a component of the endolysosomal tethering homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting (HOPS) complex, was recently identified as a cytosolic factor involved in the formation of neuroendocrine and neuronal granules. We now find that VPS41 is required for insulin SG biogenesis and regulated insulin secretion. Loss of VPS41 in pancreatic β-cells leads to a reduction in insulin SG number, changes in their transmembrane protein composition, and defects in granule-regulated exocytosis. Exploring a human point mutation, identified in patients with neurological but no endocrine defects, we show that the effect on SG formation is independent of HOPS complex formation. Finally, we report that mice with a deletion of VPS41 specifically in β-cells develop diabetes due to severe depletion of insulin SG content and a defect in insulin secretion. In sum, our data demonstrate that VPS41 contributes to glucose homeostasis and metabolism.

Abstract
Both basal and glucose-stimulated insulin release occur primarily by insulin secretory granule exocytosis from pancreatic β cells, and both are needed to maintain normoglycemia. Loss of insulin-secreting β cells, accompanied by abnormal glucose tolerance, may involve simple exhaustion of insulin reserves (which, by immunostaining, appears as a loss of β cell identity), or β cell dedifferentiation, or β cell death. While various sensing and signaling defects can result in diminished insulin secretion, somewhat less attention has been paid to diabetes risk caused by insufficiency in the biosynthetic generation and maintenance of the total insulin granule storage pool. This Review offers an overview of insulin biosynthesis, beginning with the preproinsulin mRNA (translation and translocation into the ER), proinsulin folding and export from the ER, and delivery via the Golgi complex to secretory granules for conversion to insulin and ultimate hormone storage. All of these steps are needed for generation and maintenance of the total insulin granule pool, and defects in any of these steps may, weakly or strongly, perturb glycemic control. The foregoing considerations have obvious potential relevance to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and some forms of monogenic diabetes; conceivably, several of these concepts might also have implications for β cell failure in type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Characterizing relationships between cell structures and functions requires mesoscale mapping of intact cells showing subcellular rearrangements following stimulation; however, current approaches are limited in this regard. Here, we report a unique application of soft x-ray tomography to generate three-dimensional reconstructions of whole pancreatic β cells at different time points following glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Reconstructions following stimulation showed distinct insulin vesicle distribution patterns reflective of altered vesicle pool sizes as they travel through the secretory pathway. Our results show that glucose stimulation caused rapid changes in biochemical composition and/or density of insulin packing, increased mitochondrial volume, and closer proximity of insulin vesicles to mitochondria. Costimulation with exendin-4 (a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist) prolonged these effects and increased insulin packaging efficiency and vesicle maturation. This study provides unique perspectives on the coordinated structural reorganization and interactions of organelles that dictate cell responses.
