Uptake of Clostridium botulinum C3 Exoenzyme into Intact HT22 and J774A.1 Cells
The Clostridium botulinum C3 exoenzyme selectively ADP-ribosylates low molecular weight GTP-binding proteins RhoA, B and C. This covalent modification inhibits Rho signaling activity, resulting in distinct actin cytoskeleton changes. Although C3 exoenzyme has no binding, the translocation domain assures that C3 enters cells and acts intracellularly. C3 uptake is thought to occur due to the high...
متن کاملVimentin Mediates Uptake of C3 Exoenzyme
Clostridium botulinum C3 exoenzyme (C3) selectively inactivates RhoA/B/C GTPases by ADP-ribosylation. Based on this substrate specificity C3 is a well-established tool in cell biology. C3 is taken up by eukaryotic cells although lacking an uptake and translocation domain. Based on different approaches vimentin was identified as membranous C3-interaction partner by mass spectrometry. Vimentin in...
متن کاملClostridium Botulinum C3 Exoenzyme: Rho-Inactivating Tool in Cell Biology and a Neurotrophic Agent
C3 exoenzyme from Clostridium botulinum is the prototype of bacterial ADP-ribosyltransferases, which selectively modifies the Rho isoforms RhoA, RhoB and RhoC by covalent attachment of an ADP-ribose moiety. ADPribosylation results in inactivation of cellular functions of Rho. Because of its highly restricted substrate specificity, C3 is an established tool in cell biology; to this end C3 is app...
متن کاملC3 exoenzyme from Clostridium botulinum: structure of a tetragonal crystal form and a reassessment of NAD-induced flexure.
C3 exoenzyme from Clostridium botulinum (C3bot1) ADP-ribosylates and thereby inactivates Rho A, B and C GTPases in mammalian cells. The structure of a tetragonal crystal form has been determined by molecular replacement and refined to 1.89 A resolution. It is very similar to the apo structures determined previously from two different monoclinic crystal forms. An objective reassessment of availa...
متن کاملGlutamate uptake and release by astrocytes are enhanced by Clostridium botulinum C3 protein.
Inhibition of Rho activity by Clostridium botulinum C3 transferase (C3bot) versatily changes functional properties of neural cells. Using cultivated mouse astrocytes, we show here that C3bot increases both uptake and secretion of glutamate. The enhanced glutamate uptake is initiated by an NFkappaB-dependent up-regulation of the glial glutamate transporter 1 that is efficaciously sorted to the p...
