چکیده

Endocytic internalization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) plays a critical role in down-regulation of GPCR signaling. The yeast mating pheromone receptor Ste2p has been used as a model to investigate mechanisms of signal transduction, modification, and endocytic internalization of GPCRs. We previously used a fluorescently labeled mating pheromone derivative to reveal unappreciated molecular and spatiotemporal features of GPCR endocytosis in budding yeast. Here, we identify recruitment of Ste2p to preexisting clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) as a key step regulated by receptor phosphorylation and subsequent ubiquitination upon ligand binding. The yeast casein kinase I homologue Yck2p directly phosphorylates six serine residues located in the C-terminal tail of Ste2p, and mutation of these serine residues to alanine significantly decreased recruitment of Ste2p to CCPs. We also found that the clathrin adaptors Ent1p, Ent2p, and Ede1p work cooperatively to recruit ubiquitinated Ste2p to CCPs. In addition, ubiquitination has a role in ligand-independent constitutive recruitment of Ste2p to CCPs, although this process is much slower than ligand-induced recruitment. These results suggest that ubiquitination of Ste2p is indispensable for recruiting Ste2p to CCPs in both ligand-dependent and ligand-independent endocytosis.

Recruitment dynamics of GAK and auxilin to clathrin-coated pits during endocytosis.

Cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK), the ubiquitous form of the neuronal-specific protein auxilin 1, is an essential cofactor for Hsc70-dependent uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles. Total internal reflectance microscopy was used to determine the timing of GAK binding relative to dynamin and clathrin binding during invagination of clathrin-coated pits. Following transient recruitment of dynamin ...

Multiple GTP-binding proteins participate in clathrin-coated vesicle- mediated endocytosis

We have examined the effects of various agonists and antagonists of GTP-binding proteins on receptor-mediated endocytosis in vitro. Stage-specific assays which distinguish coated pit assembly, invagination, and coat vesicle budding have been used to demonstrate requirements for GTP-binding protein(s) in each of these events. Coated pit invagination and coated vesicle budding are both stimulated...

Modulation of cellular transport characteristics of the human lung alveolar epithelia

Among the drug delivery and targeting (DDT) routes, lung alveolar epithelium has been given enormous attentions in terms of the delivery of a wide range of macromolecules such as gene- or protein-based nanopharmaceuticals. However, little is known about cellular modulation of lung transport characteristics by endogenous and/or exogenous agents. Thus, in the current study, impact of dexamethason...

Regulation of Hip1r by epsin controls the temporal and spatial coupling of actin filaments to clathrin-coated pits.

Recently, it has become clear that the actin cytoskeleton is involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. During clathrin-mediated endocytosis, clathrin triskelions and adaptor proteins assemble into lattices, forming clathrin-coated pits. These coated pits invaginate and detach from the membrane, a process that requires dynamic actin polymerization. We found an unexpected role for the clathrin a...
