چکیده

Reovirus cell entry is mediated by attachment to cell surface carbohydrate and junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) and internalization by beta1 integrin. The beta1 integrin cytoplasmic tail contains two NPXY motifs, which function in recruitment of adaptor proteins and clathrin for endocytosis and serve as sorting signals for internalized cargo. As reovirus infection requires disassembly in the endocytic compartment, we investigated the role of the beta1 integrin NPXY motifs in reovirus internalization. In comparison to wild-type cells (beta1+/+ cells), reovirus infectivity was significantly reduced in cells expressing mutant beta1 integrin in which the NPXY motifs were altered to NPXF (beta1+/+Y783F/Y795F cells). However, reovirus displayed equivalent binding and internalization levels following adsorption to beta1+/+ cells and beta1+/+Y783F/Y795F cells, suggesting that the NPXY motifs are essential for transport of reovirus within the endocytic pathway. Reovirus entry into beta1+/+ cells was blocked by chlorpromazine, an inhibitor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, while entry into beta1+/+Y783F/Y795F cells was unaffected. Furthermore, virus was distributed to morphologically distinct endocytic organelles in beta1+/+ and beta1+/+Y783F/Y795F cells, providing further evidence that the beta1 integrin NPXY motifs mediate sorting of reovirus in the endocytic pathway. Thus, NPXY motifs in the beta1 integrin cytoplasmic tail are required for functional reovirus entry, which indicates a key role for these sequences in endocytosis of a pathogenic virus.

Genetic analysis of β1 integrin “activation motifs” in mice

Akey feature of integrins is their ability to regulate the affinity for ligands, a process termed integrin activation. The final step in integrin activation is talin binding to the NPXY motif of the integrin beta cytoplasmic domains. Talin binding disrupts the salt bridge between the alpha/beta tails, leading to tail separation and integrin activation. We analyzed mice in which we mutated the t...

NPXY motifs control the recruitment of the α5β1 integrin in focal adhesions independently of the association of talin with the β1 chain

With the exception of the divergent β4 and β8 chains, the integrin β subunit cytoplasmic domains are short and highly conserved sequences. Consensus motifs are found among the different cytoplasmic β chains. Experiments using chimeric receptors demonstrated that the 47 amino acids of the β1 subunit cytoplasmic domain contain sufficient information to target integrins to adhesion plaques. Three ...

The talin-integrin interface under mechanical stress.

The major mechanical function of talin is to couple the β-integrin cytoplasmic tails to actin filaments. A variety of β-integrin tails contain conserved binding motifs for talin, and recent research shows that β-integrins differ both in affinity to talin and preferences for other cytoplasmic adaptor proteins. While talin predominantly links β3 integrins to actin filaments within the peripheral ...

Distinct Roles of Talin and Kindlin in Regulating Integrin α5β1 Function and Trafficking

BACKGROUND Integrins are heterodimeric αβ transmembrane receptors that play key roles in cellular physiology and pathology. Accumulating data indicate that the two NPxY motifs in the cytoplasmic domain of the β1 subunit synergistically promote integrin activation through the binding of talin and kindlin. However, it is unclear how the individual motifs regulate integrin function and trafficking...

Beta1 integrin cytoplasmic tyrosines promote skin tumorigenesis independent of their phosphorylation.

β1 integrin tyrosine phosphorylation by oncogenic kinases, such as Src, has been predicted to induce tumorigenesis by disrupting adhesion and modifying integrin signaling. We directly tested this hypothesis by subjecting mice with "nonphosphorylatable" tyrosine-to-phenylalanine substitutions in the conserved β1 cytoplasmic tail NPxY motifs to a model of cutaneous carcinogenesis in the presence ...
