Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation-induced dissociation of class II invariant chain complexes containing a glycosylation-deficient form of p41.

چکیده
The quality control system in the secretory pathway can identify and eliminate misfolded proteins through endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). ERAD is thought to occur by retrotranslocation through the Sec61 complex into the cytosol and degradation by the proteasome. However, the extent of disassembly of oligomeric proteins and unfolding of polypeptide chains that is required for retrotranslocation is not fully understood. In this report we used a glycosylation mutant of the p41 isoform of invariant chain (Ii) to evaluate the ability of ERAD to discriminate between correctly folded and misfolded subunits in an oligomeric complex. We show that loss of glycosylation at position 239 of p41 does not detectably affect Ii trimerization or association with class II but does result in a defect in endoplasmic reticulum export of Ii that ultimately leads to its degradation via the ERAD pathway. Although class II associated with the mutated form of p41 is initially retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, it is subsequently released and traffics through the Golgi to the plasma membrane. ERAD-mediated degradation of the mutant p41 is dependent on mannose trimming and inhibition of mannosidase I stabilizes Ii. Interestingly, inhibition of mannosidase I also results in prolonged association between the mutant Ii and class II, indicating that complex disassembly and release of class II is linked to mannosidase-dependent ERAD targeting of the misfolded Ii. These results suggest that the ERAD machinery can induce subunit disassembly, specifically targeting misfolded subunits to degradation and sparing properly folded subunits for reassembly and/or export.

Regulation of intracellular trafficking of human CD1d by association with MHC class II molecules.
CD1 family members are antigen-presenting molecules capable of presenting bacterial or synthetic glycolipids to T cells. Here we show that a subset of human CD1d molecules are associated with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules, both on the cell surface and in the late endosomal/lysosomal compartments where class II molecules transiently accumulate during transport. The in...
متن کاملThe p35 human invariant chain in transgenic mice restores mature B cells in the absence of endogenous CD74.
The invariant chain (Ii; CD74) has pleiotropic functions and Ii-deficient mice show defects in MHC class II (MHC II) transport and B cell maturation. In humans, but not in mice, a minor Iip35 isoform of unknown function includes an endoplasmic reticulum-retention motif that is masked upon binding of MHC II molecules. To gain further insight into the roles of Ii in B cell homeostasis, we generat...
متن کاملControl of glycosylation of MHC class II-associated invariant chain by translocon-associated RAMP4.
Protein translocation across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proceeds through a proteinaceous translocation machinery, the translocon. To identify components that may regulate translocation by interacting with nascent polypeptides in the translocon, we used site-specific photo-crosslinking. We found that a region C-terminal of the two N-glycosylation sites of the MHC class II-ass...
متن کاملInhibition of invariant chain (Ii)-calnexin interaction results in enhanced degradation of Ii but does not prevent the assembly of alpha beta Ii complexes
Calnexin is a resident protein of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that associates with nascent protein chains. Among the newly synthesized integral membrane proteins known to bind to calnexin is invariant chain (Ii), and Ii release from calnexin coincides with proper assembly with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II heterodimers. Although calnexin association with several membrane gl...
متن کاملExit of major histocompatibility complex class II-invariant chain p35 complexes from the endoplasmic reticulum is modulated by phosphorylation.
The Iip35 isoform of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II-associated invariant chain (Ii) contains an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) targeting motif, but in B cell lines the ER retention is ineffective and a fraction of Iip35 is transported through the Golgi complex associated with class II molecules. We found Iip35 (but not Iip33, the major form of Ii) to be phosphorylated in B cell...
