Abstract
CCP110 (centriolar coiled coil protein 110, also known as CP110) is one of the essential proteins localized in the centrosome that plays critical roles in the regulation of the cell cycle and also in the initiation of ciliogenesis. So far, no human congenital disorders have been identified to be associated with pathogenic variants of CCP110. Mice with biallelic loss-of-function variants of Ccp110 (Ccp110-/-) are known to manifest multiple organ defects, including a small body size, polydactyly, omphalocele, congenital heart defects, cleft palate, short ribs, and a small thoracic cage, a pattern of abnormalities closely resembling that in "ciliopathies" in humans. Herein, we report a 7-month-old male infant who presented with growth failure and skeletal abnormalities, including a narrow thorax and severe brachydactyly. Trio exome analysis of the genomic DNA of the patient and his parents showed that the patient was a compound heterozygote for truncating variants of CCP110, including a frameshift variant NM_001323572.2:c.856_857del, p.(Val286Leufs*5) inherited from the father, and a nonsense variant NM_001323572.2:c.1129C>T, p.(Arg377*) inherited from the mother. The strikingly similar pattern of malformations between Ccp110-/- mice and the 7-month-old male infant reported herein carrying unequivocal truncating CCP110 variants strongly supports the contention that CCP110 is a novel disease-causative gene.

Subbiah A, Caswell DL, Turner K, Jaiswal A, Avidor-Reiss T. CP110 and CEP135 Localize Near the Proximal Centriolar Remnants of Mice Spermatozoa. MICROPUBLICATION BIOLOGY 2024; 2024:10.17912/micropub.biology.001083. [PMID: 38351906 PMCID: PMC10862134 DOI: 10.17912/micropub.biology.001083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024]
Abstract
Centrioles form centrosomes that organize microtubules, assist in cell structure, and nucleate cilia that provide motility and sensation. Within the sperm, the centrosome consists of two centrioles (proximal and distal centriole) and a pericentriolar material known as the striated column and capitulum. The distal centriole nucleates the flagellum. Mice spermatozoa, unlike other mammal spermatozoa (e.g., human and bovine), have no ultra-structurally recognizable centrioles, but their neck has the centriolar proteins POC1B and FAM161A, suggesting mice spermatozoa have remnant centrioles. Here, we examine whether other centriolar proteins, CP110 and CEP135, found in the human and bovine spermatozoa centrioles are also found in the mouse spermatozoa neck. CP110 is a tip protein controlling ciliogenesis, and CEP135 is a centriole-specific structural protein in the centriole base of canonical centrioles found in most cell types. Here, we report that CP110 and CEP135 were both located in the mice spermatozoa neck around the proximal centriolar remnants labeled by POC1B, increasing the number of centriolar proteins found in the mice spermatozoa neck, further supporting the hypothesis that a remnant proximal centriole is present in mice.

Interactome Analysis Reveals a Link of the Novel ALMS1-CEP70 Complex to Centrosomal Clusters. Mol Cell Proteomics 2024; 23:100701.

Abstract
Alström syndrome (ALMS) is a very rare autosomal-recessive disorder, causing a broad range of clinical defects most notably retinal degeneration, type 2 diabetes, and truncal obesity. The ALMS1 gene encodes a complex and huge ∼0.5 MDa protein, which has hampered analysis in the past. The ALMS1 protein is localized to the centrioles and the basal body of cilia and is involved in signaling processes, for example, TGF-β signaling. However, the exact molecular function of ALMS1 at the basal body remains elusive and controversial. We recently demonstrated that protein complex analysis utilizing endogenously tagged cells provides an excellent tool to investigate protein interactions of ciliary proteins. Here, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated endogenously tagged ALMS1 cells were used for affinity-based protein complex analysis. Centrosomal and microtubule-associated proteins were identified, which are potential regulators of ALMS1 function, such as the centrosomal protein 70 kDa (CEP70). Candidate proteins were further investigated in ALMS1-deficient hTERT-RPE1 cells. Loss of ALMS1 led to shortened cilia with no change in structural protein localization, for example, acetylated and ɣ-tubulin, Centrin-3, or the novel interactor CEP70. Conversely, reduction of CEP70 resulted in decreased ALMS1 at the ciliary basal body. Complex analysis of CEP70 revealed domain-specific ALMS1 interaction involving the TPR-containing C-terminal (TRP-CT) fragment of CEP70. In addition to ALMS1, several ciliary proteins, including CEP135, were found to specifically bind to the TPR-CT domain. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with the identifier PXD046401. Protein interactors identified in this study provide candidate lists that help to understand ALMS1 and CEP70 function in cilia-related protein modification, cell death, and disease-related mechanisms.
