Abstract (sommario):
In immunobiochemical blots, polyclonal antibodies against subunits of plant and mammalian vacuolar-type ATPases (V-ATPases) cross-react strongly with corresponding subunits of larval Manduca sexta midgut plasma membrane V-ATPase. Thus, rabbit antiserum against Kalanchoe daigremontiana tonoplast V-ATPase holoenzyme cross-reacts with the 67, 56, 40, 28 and 20 kDa subunits of midgut V-ATPase separated by SDS-PAGE. Antisera against bovine chromaffin granule 72 and 39 kDa V-ATPase subunits cross-react with the corresponding 67 and 43 kDa subunits of midgut V-ATPase. Antisera against the 57 kDa subunit of both beet root and oat root V-ATPase cross-react strongly with the midgut 56 kDa V-ATPase subunit. In immunocytochemical light micrographs, antiserum against the beet root 57 kDa V-ATPase subunit labels the goblet cell apical membrane of both posterior and anterior midgut in freeze-substituted and fixed sections. The plant antiserum also labels the apical brush-border plasma membrane of Malpighian tubules. The ability of antibodies against plant V-ATPase to label these insect membranes suggests a high sequence homology between V-ATPases from plants and insects. Both of the antibody-labelled insect membranes transport K+ and both membranes possess F1-like particles, portasomes, on their cytoplasmic surfaces. This immunolabelling by xenic V-ATPase antisera of two insect cation-transporting membranes suggests that the portasomes on these membranes may be V-ATPase particles, similar to those reported on V-ATPase-containing vacuolar membranes from various sources.

Abstract (sommario):
ABSTRACTVacuolar H+-ATPases (V-ATPases) are highly conserved ATP-driven proton pumps responsible for acidification of intracellular compartments. V-ATPase proton transport energizes secondary transport systems and is essential for lysosomal/vacuolar and endosomal functions. These dynamic molecular motors are composed of multiple subunits regulated in part by reversible disassembly, which reversibly inactivates them. Reversible disassembly is intertwined with glycolysis, the RAS/cyclic AMP (cAMP)/protein kinase A (PKA) pathway, and phosphoinositides, but the mechanisms involved are elusive. The atomic- and pseudo-atomic-resolution structures of the V-ATPases are shedding light on the molecular dynamics that regulate V-ATPase assembly. Although all eukaryotic V-ATPases may be built with an inherent capacity to reversibly disassemble, not all do so. V-ATPase subunit isoforms and their interactions with membrane lipids and a V-ATPase-exclusive chaperone influence V-ATPase assembly. This minireview reports on the mechanisms governing reversible disassembly in the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae, keeping in perspective our present understanding of the V-ATPase architecture and its alignment with the cellular processes and signals involved.

Abstract (sommario):
Vacuolar ATPases (V-ATPases) are highly conserved proton pumps that regulate organelle pH. Epithelial luminal pH is also regulated by cAMP-dependent traffic of specific subunits of the V-ATPase complex from endosomes into the apical membrane. In the intestine, cAMP-dependent traffic of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channels and the sodium hydrogen exchanger (NHE3) in the brush border regulate luminal pH. V-ATPase was found to colocalize with CFTR in intestinal CFTR high expresser (CHE) cells recently. Moreover, apical traffic of V-ATPase and CFTR in rat Brunner's glands was shown to be dependent on cAMP/PKA. These observations support a functional relationship between V-ATPase and CFTR in the intestine. The current study examined V-ATPase and CFTR distribution in intestines from wild-type, CFTR−/−mice and polarized intestinal CaCo-2BBe cells following cAMP stimulation and inhibition of CFTR/V-ATPase function. Coimmunoprecipitation studies examined V-ATPase interaction with CFTR. The pH-sensitive dye BCECF determined proton efflux and its dependence on V-ATPase/CFTR in intestinal cells. cAMP increased V-ATPase/CFTR colocalization in the apical domain of intestinal cells and redistributed the V-ATPase Voa1 and Voa2 trafficking subunits from the basolateral membrane to the brush border membrane. Voa1 and Voa2 subunits were localized to endosomes beneath the terminal web in untreated CFTR−/−intestine but redistributed to the subapical cytoplasm following cAMP treatment. Inhibition of CFTR or V-ATPase significantly decreased pHiin cells, confirming their functional interdependence. These data establish that V-ATPase traffics into the brush border membrane to regulate proton efflux and this activity is dependent on CFTR in the intestine.

Abstract (sommario):
ABSTRACT Vacuolar H+-ATPases (V-ATPases) are a family of ATP-driven proton pumps. They maintain pH gradients between intracellular compartments and are required for proton secretion out of the cytoplasm. Mechanisms of extrinsic control of V-ATPase are poorly understood. Previous studies showed that glucose is an important regulator of V-ATPase assembly in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Human V-ATPase directly interacts with aldolase, providing a coupling mechanism for glucose metabolism and V-ATPase function. Here we show that glucose is a crucial regulator of V-ATPase in renal epithelial cells and that the effect of glucose is mediated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Glucose stimulates V-ATPase-dependent acidification of the intracellular compartments in human proximal tubular cells HK-2 and porcine renal epithelial cells LLC-PK1. Glucose induces rapid ATP-independent assembly of the V1 and Vo domains of V-ATPase and extensive translocation of the V-ATPase V1 and Vo domains between different membrane pools and between membranes and the cytoplasm. In HK-2 cells, glucose stimulates polarized translocation of V-ATPase to the apical plasma membrane. The effects of glucose on V-ATPase trafficking and assembly can be abolished by pretreatment with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 and can be reproduced in glucose-deprived cells by adenoviral expression of the constitutively active catalytic subunit p110α of PI3K. Taken together these data provide evidence that, in renal epithelial cells, glucose plays an important role in the control of V-ATPase-dependent acidification of intracellular compartments and V-ATPase assembly and trafficking and that the effects of glucose are mediated by PI3K-dependent signaling.

Abstract (sommario):
The structure of V- and F-ATPases/ATP synthases is remarkably conserved throughout evolution. Sequence analyses show that the V- and F-ATPases evolved from the same enzyme that was already present in the last common ancestor of all known extant life forms. The catalytic and non-catalytic subunits found in the dissociable head groups of both V-ATPases and F-ATPases are paralogous subunits, i.e. these two types of subunits evolved from a common ancestral gene. The gene duplication giving rise to these two genes (i.e. those encoding the catalytic and non-catalytic subunits) pre-dates the time of the last common ancestor. Similarities between the V- and F-ATPase subunits and an ATPase-like protein that is implicated in flagellar assembly are evaluated with regard to the early evolution of ATPases. Mapping of gene duplication events that occurred in the evolution of the proteolipid, the non-catalytic and the catalytic subunits onto the tree of life leads to a prediction of the likely quaternary structure of the encoded ATPases. The phylogenetic implications of V-ATPases found in eubacteria are discussed. Different V-ATPase isoforms have been detected in some higher eukaryotes, whereas others were shown to have only a single gene encoding the catalytic V-ATPase subunit. These data are analyzed with respect to the possible function of the different isoforms (tissue-specific, organelle-specific). The point in evolution at which the different isoforms arose is mapped by phylogenetic analysis.

Abstract (sommario):
SUMMARY All eukaryotic cells contain multiple acidic organelles, and V-ATPases are central players in organelle acidification. Not only is the structure of V-ATPases highly conserved among eukaryotes, but there are also many regulatory mechanisms that are similar between fungi and higher eukaryotes. These mechanisms allow cells both to regulate the pHs of different compartments and to respond to changing extracellular conditions. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae V-ATPase has emerged as an important model for V-ATPase structure and function in all eukaryotic cells. This review discusses current knowledge of the structure, function, and regulation of the V-ATPase in S. cerevisiae and also examines the relationship between biosynthesis and transport of V-ATPase and compartment-specific regulation of acidification.

Abstract (sommario):
The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is one of the most fundamental enzymes in nature. It functions in almost every eukaryotic cell and energizes a wide variety of organelles and membranes. V-ATPases have similar structure and mechanism of action with F-ATPase and several of their subunits evolved from common ancestors. In eukaryotic cells, F-ATPases are confined to the semi-autonomous organelles, chloroplasts, and mitochondria, which contain their own genes that encode some of the F-ATPase subunits. In contrast to F-ATPases, whose primary function in eukaryotic cells is to form ATP at the expense of the proton-motive force (pmf), V-ATPases function exclusively as ATP-dependent proton pumps. The pmf generated by V-ATPases in organelles and membranes of eukaryotic cells is utilized as a driving force for numerous secondary transport processes. The mechanistic and structural relations between the two enzymes prompted us to suggest similar functional units in V-ATPase as was proposed to F-ATPase and to assign some of the V-ATPase subunit to one of four parts of a mechanochemical machine: a catalytic unit, a shaft, a hook, and a proton turbine. It was the yeast genetics that allowed the identification of special properties of individual subunits and the discovery of factors that are involved in the enzyme biogenesis and assembly. The V-ATPases play a major role as energizers of animal plasma membranes, especially apical plasma membranes of epithelial cells. This role was first recognized in plasma membranes of lepidopteran midgut and vertebrate kidney. The list of animals with plasma membranes that are energized by V-ATPases now includes members of most, if not all, animal phyla. This includes the classical Na+absorption by frog skin, male fertility through acidification of the sperm acrosome and the male reproductive tract, bone resorption by mammalian osteoclasts, and regulation of eye pressure. V-ATPase may function in Na+uptake by trout gills and energizes water secretion by contractile vacuoles in Dictyostelium. V-ATPase was first detected in organelles connected with the vacuolar system. It is the main if not the only primary energy source for numerous transport systems in these organelles. The driving force for the accumulation of neurotransmitters into synaptic vesicles is pmf generated by V-ATPase. The acidification of lysosomes, which are required for the proper function of most of their enzymes, is provided by V-ATPase. The enzyme is also vital for the proper function of endosomes and the Golgi apparatus. In contrast to yeast vacuoles that maintain an internal pH of ∼5.5, it is believed that the vacuoles of lemon fruit may have a pH as low as 2. Similarly, some brown and red alga maintain internal pH as low as 0.1 in their vacuoles. One of the outstanding questions in the field is how such a conserved enzyme as the V-ATPase can fulfill such diverse functions.

Abstract (sommario):
The vacuolar H(+)-ATPases (or V-ATPases) are a family of ATP-dependent proton pumps that carry out acidification of intracellular compartments in eukaryotic cells. This review is focused on our work on the V-ATPases of clathrin-coated vesicles and yeast vacuoles. The coated-vesicle V-ATPase undergoes trafficking to endosomes and synaptic vesicles, where it functions in receptor recycling and neurotransmitter uptake, respectively. The yeast V-ATPase functions to acidify the central vacuole and is necessary both for protein degradation and for coupled transport processes across the vacuolar membrane. The V-ATPases are multisubunit complexes composed of two functional domains. The V(1) domain is a 570 kDa peripheral complex composed of eight subunits of molecular mass 73–14 kDa (subunits A-H) that is responsible for ATP hydrolysis. The V(o) domain is a 260 kDa integral complex composed of five subunits of molecular mass 100-17 kDa (subunits a, d, c, c' and c”) that is responsible for proton translocation. To explore the function of individual subunits in the V-ATPase complex as well as to identify residues important in proton transport and ATP hydrolysis, we have employed a combination of chemical modification, site-directed mutagenesis and in vitro reassembly. A central question concerns the mechanism by which vacuolar acidification is controlled in eukaryotic cells. We have proposed that disulfide bond formation between conserved cysteine residues at the catalytic site of the V-ATPase plays an important role in regulating V-ATPase activity in vivo. Other regulatory mechanisms that are discussed include reversible dissociation and reassembly of the V-ATPase complex, changes in the tightness of coupling between proton transport and ATP hydrolysis, differential targeting of V-ATPases within the cell and control of the Cl(−) conductance that is necessary for vacuolar acidification.

Abstract (sommario):
Vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a highly conserved proton pump responsible for acidification of intracellular organelles and potential drug target. It is a multisubunit complex comprising a cytoplasmic V1 domain responsible for ATP hydrolysis and a membrane-embedded Vo domain that contributes to proton translocation across the membrane. Saccharomyces cerevisiae V-ATPase is composed of 14 subunits, deletion of any one of which results in well-defined growth defects. As the structure of V-ATPase and the function of each subunit have been well-characterized in yeast, this organism has been recognized as a preferred model for studies of V-ATPases. In this study, to assess the functional relatedness of the yeast and human V-ATPase subunits, we investigated whether human V-ATPase subunits can complement calcium- or pH-sensitive growth, acidification of the vacuolar lumen, assembly of the V-ATPase complex, and protein sorting in yeast mutants lacking the equivalent yeast genes. These assessments revealed that 9 of the 13 human V-ATPase subunits can partially or fully complement the function of the corresponding yeast subunits. Importantly, sequence similarity was not necessarily correlated with functional complementation. We also found that besides all Vo domain subunits, the V1 F subunit is required for proper assembly of the Vo domain at the endoplasmic reticulum. Furthermore, the human H subunit fully restored the level of vacuolar acidification, but only partially rescued calcium-sensitive growth, suggesting a specific role of the H subunit in V-ATPase activity. These findings provide important insights into functional homologies between yeast and human V-ATPases.

Abstract (sommario):
FliI and FliJ form the FliI6FliJ ATPase complex of the bacterial flagellar export apparatus, a member of the type III secretion system. The FliI6FliJ complex is structurally similar to the α3β3γ complex of F1-ATPase. The FliH homodimer binds to FliI to connect the ATPase complex to the flagellar base, but the details are unknown. Here we report the structure of the homodimer of a C-terminal fragment of FliH (FliHC2) in complex with FliI. FliHC2shows an unusually asymmetric homodimeric structure that markedly resembles the peripheral stalk of the A/V-type ATPases. The FliHC2–FliI hexamer model reveals that the C-terminal domains of the FliI ATPase face the cell membrane in a way similar to the F/A/V-type ATPases. We discuss the mechanism of flagellar ATPase complex formation and a common origin shared by the type III secretion system and the F/A/V-type ATPases.

Abstract (sommario):
Fighting metastasis is a major challenge in cancer therapy and novel therapeutic targets and drugs are highly appreciated. Resistance of invasive cells to anoikis, a particular type of apoptosis induced by loss of cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) contact, is a major prerequisite for their metastatic spread. Inducing anoikis in metastatic cancer cells is therefore a promising therapeutic approach. The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase), a proton pump located at the membrane of acidic organelles, has recently come to focus as an anti-metastatic cancer target. As V-ATPase inhibitors have shown to prevent invasion of tumor cells and are able to induce apoptosis we proposed that V-ATPase inhibition induces anoikis related pathways in invasive cancer cells. In this study the V-ATPase inhibitor archazolid A was used to investigate the mechanism of anoikis induction in various metastatic cancer cells (T24, MDA-MB-231, 4T1, 5637). Therefore, cells were forced to stay in a detached status to mimic loss of cell-ECM engagement following treatment with archazolid. Indeed, anoikis induction by archazolid was characterized by decreased expression of the caspase-8 inhibitor c-FLIP and caspase-8 activation, thus triggering the extrinsic apoptotic pathway. Interestingly, active integrin β1, which is known to play a major role in anoikis induction and resistance, is reduced on the cell surface of archazolid treated cells. Furthermore, a diminished phosphorylation of the integrin downstream target focal adhesion kinase could be demonstrated. The intrinsic apoptotic pathway was initiated by the pro-apoptotic protein BIM, increasing early after treatment. BIM activates cytochrome C release from the mitochondria consequently leading to cell death and is described as one major inducer of anoikis in non-malignant and anoikis sensitive cancer cells. Of note, we observed that archazolid also induces mechanisms opposing anoikis such as proteasomal degradation of BIM mediated by the pro-survival kinases ERK, c-Src and especially Akt at later time points. Moreover, induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) influences BIM removal as well, as moderate levels of ROS have second messenger properties amplifying cell survival signals. Thus, to antagonize these anoikis escape strategies a combination of archazolid with proteasome or ROS inhibitors amplified cancer cell death synergistically. Most importantly, intravenous injection of archazolid treated 4T1-Luc2 mouse breast cancer cells in BALB/cByJRj mice resulted in reduced lung metastases in vivo. To summarize this work we propose archazolid as a very potent drug in inducing anoikis pathways in metastatic cancer cells even though having learned that detachment together with treatment triggers multiple resistance mechanisms opposing cell death. Hence, V-ATPase inhibition is not only an interesting option to reduce cancer metastasis but also to better understand anoikis resistance and to find choices to fight against it.

Abstract (sommario):
Os crustáceos são originariamente marinhos; ao longo da evolução, diversas espécies invadiram ambientes de salinidades menores, chegando à água doce. A capacidade dos crustáceos colonizarem com sucesso o ambiente dulcícola depende do desenvolvimento de mecanismos eficientes de hiperosmorregulação. A osmolalidade e a composição iônica da hemolinfa de um crustáceo, em meios diluídos, refletem o equilíbrio dinâmico entre a perda de íons por difusão e pela urina e sua reabsorção do meio externo, através das brânquias. A (Na,K)-ATPase branquial desempenha um papel chave no processo de captura de Na+ a partir de ambientes diluídos e suas características cinéticas vem sendo investigadas recentemente, embora as enzimas de caranguejos dulcícolas sejam pouco conhecidas. Segundo o modelo atual, a afinidade por Na+ é o parâmetro cinético mais variável entre as enzimas de diferentes espécies, refletindo a salinidade do habitat do animal, de modo que enzimas de espécies bem adaptadas à água doce apresentam afinidades maiores por Na+. Entretanto, vários resultados conflitantes têm sido relatados nos últimos anos. Recentemente, foi proposto que uma V-ATPase também desempenha papel essencial na captação de Na+ através das brânquias dos crustáceos dulcícolas. Esta enzima ainda é praticamente desconhecida: suas características cinéticas não foram estudadas e a relação entre a magnitude da sua atividade e a salinidade do meio externo não está estabelecida. Este projeto teve por objetivo a caracterização das enzimas (Na,K)-ATPase e V-ATPase das brânquias posteriores do caranguejo hololimnético Dilocarcinus pagei, considerado um antigo invasor da água doce. A (Na,K)-ATPase foi caracterizada em animais mantidos em água doce, a fim de comparar suas propriedades cinéticas com aquelas das enzimas de outras espécies de caranguejos, habitantes de meios mais salinos, visando melhorar o entendimento das adaptações bioquímicas associadas à invasão da água doce. A V-ATPase foi caracterizada em animais mantidos em água doce ou expostos por diferentes intervalos de tempo à salinidade de 21‰ ou ainda aclimatados por 10 dias a diferentes salinidades (5-21‰), visando estabelecer uma relação entre a magnitude da atividade e a salinidade do meio, além de investigar os mecanismos de regulação da atividade da enzima. A análise da fração microsomal branquial de D. pagei mantido em água doce em gradiente contínuo de sacarose mostrou dois picos protéicos (25-35% e 35-45% de sacarose), ambos com atividades K+-fosfatase, (Na,K)-ATPase e V-ATPase. Estes resultados indicam a presença de frações de membrana com densidades distintas, apresentando, em ambos os casos, as principais bombas de íons envolvidas na captação de Na+. Estas membranas podem ser originárias de locais distintos do epitélio branquial posterior assimétrico deste caranguejo. A análise por Western blotting revelou duas bandas imunoespecíficas (Mr 116 kDa e 105 kDa) correspondentes à subunidade α da (Na,K)-ATPase, sugerindo a presença de duas isoformas nas brânquias posteriores do animal. A estimulação da atividade K+-fosfatase da (Na,K)-ATPase pelo PNFF envolveu interações sítio-sítio (nH= 1,4), com V= 43,4 ± 2,2 U mg-1 e K0,5= 1,13 ± 0,06 mmol L-1. A estimulação da atividade da enzima por K+ (V= 39,9 ± 1,9 U mg-1 e K0,5= 4,2 ± 0,2 mmol L-1), Mg2+ (V= 45,0 ± 2,2 U mg-1, K0,5= 0,82 ± 0,04 mmol L-1) e NH4+ (V= 31,7 ± 1,6 U mg-1, K0,5= 19,0 ± 0,9 mmol L-1) também ocorreu por meio de interações sítio-sítio. A afinidade aparente da enzima pelo PNFF e Mg2+ foi similar às relatadas para enzimas de outros crustáceos, incluindo caranguejos habitantes de meios mais salinos. Entretanto, a enzima de D. pagei apresentou menor afinidade aparente por íons K+ que as outras espécies já estudadas. A atividade K+-fosfatase da (Na,K)-ATPase branquial de D. pagei mantido em água doce foi estimulada sinergicamente por K+ e NH4+ sugerindo a presença de dois sítios de ligação para estes íons na molécula da enzima. Ouabaína (4 mmol L-1) inibiu a atividade PNFFase total da preparação (≈ 89%), por meio de uma curva monofásica (KI= 225,6, ± 11,3 µ mol L-1), sugerindo que, se presentes na fração microsomal, as duas isoenzimas da (Na,K)-ATPase apresentam sensibilidades próximas para o inibidor. Ortovanadato (1µmol L-1) inibiu 95% da atividade PNFFase total por meio de uma curva bifásica, reforçando a sugestão da presença de duas isoenzimas na preparação. A hidrólise do ATP pela (Na,K)-ATPase branquial de D. pagei mantido em água doce ocorreu em sítios de alta (V= 6,4 ± 0,32 U mg-1 e K0,5 = 0,34 ± 0,02 µmol L-1) e baixa afinidade (V= 127,1 ± 6,2 U mg-1e KM = 84 ± 4,1 µmol L-1). Não foi encontrada uma correlação direta entre a afinidade pelo ATP e o habitat de diferentes espécies de caranguejos. A atividade (Na,K)-ATPase específica de D. pagei mantido em água doce foi cerca de 3 vezes menor que relatada para Potamon edulis, única espécie de caranguejo dulcícola para a qual este parâmetro foi relatado. Atividades específicas muito maiores foram encontradas para caranguejos estuarinos, particularmente quando aclimatados a salinidades baixas. A baixa atividade específica determinada para D. pagei pode ser atribuída ao baixo gradiente osmoiônico que este animal mantém entre a hemolinfa e o meio externo, comparado a outros caranguejos dulcícolas, que o caracteriza como uma espécie particularmente bem adaptada ao ambiente dulcícola. A estimulação da atividade da enzima por íons Na+ (V = 133,8 ± 7,3 U mg-1e K0,5= 4,7 ± 0,3 mmol L-1), Mg2+ (V= 136,5 ± 8,0 U mg-1, K0,5= 0,62 ± 0,04 mmol L-1), K+ (V = 131,7± 7,9 U mg-1 e K0,5= 0,47 ± 0,03 mmol L-1) e NH4+ (V= 125,6 ± 6,3 U mg-1, K0,5= 1,90 ± 0,09 mmol L-1) ocorreu por meio de interações sítio-sítio. A afinidade aparente por Na+ da enzima de D. pagei é baixa, se comparada às relatadas para outros animais dulcícolas, e similar às encontradas para espécies estuarino/marinhas. Em contraste, a afinidade aparente por K+ é 2,5 a 5 vezes maior que as determinadas para espécies habitantes de meios mais salinos e aparentemente está mais relacionada ao habitat do animal que a afinidade por Na+. Esta possibilidade é coerente com o fato da (Na,K)-ATPase branquial dos crustáceos apresentar os sítios de ligação de K+ expostos para a hemolinfa, o que possibilita a modulação da atividade da enzima pela concentração de K+ na hemolinfa. Ao contrário do observado para várias outras espécies de caranguejos, a atividade (Na,K)-ATPase branquial de D. pagei não foi estimulada sinergisticamente por K+ e NH4+. Entretanto, a presença de um dos íons no meio reacional provoca o aumento da afinidade aparente da enzima pelo outro em cerca de 3 vezes. Fisiologicamente, esta característica cinética pode ser importante para garantir o transporte de ambos os íons pela enzima, mesmo em presença de concentrações relativamente elevadas do outro. Ouabaína (3 mmol L-1) inibiu a atividade ATPase total (≈ 78%) por meio de uma curva bifásica (KI= 6,21 ± 0,32 µmol L-1 e 101,2 ± 5,1 µmol L-1), reforçando os resultados anteriores no sentido de demonstrar a existência de duas isoenzimas da (Na,K)-ATPase nas brânquias posteriores de D. pagei. Observou-se também uma inibição bifásica por ortovanadato (10 µmol L-1), que inibiu a atividade ATPase total em 85%. O pH ótimo para a atividade V-ATPase branquial de D. pagei foi de 7,5. A modulação da atividade V-ATPase do animal mantido em água doce por ATP (V= 26,5 ± 1,3 U mg-1; K0,5= 3,9 ± 0,2 mmol L-1) e Mg2+ (V = 27,9 ± 1,4 U mg-1; K0,5 =0,80 ± 0,04 mmol L-1) ocorreu por meio de interações cooperativas. Já a inibição da atividade ATPase insensível ao ortovanadato por bafilomicina A1 ocorreu segundo uma curva monofásica (KI= 55,0 ± 2,8 nmol L-1). Cerca de 44 % da atividade ATPase total foi inibida, correspondendo à V-ATPase. A atividade V-ATPase branquial de D. pagei diminuiu acentuadamente em resposta à exposição à salinidade de 21‰. Após 1h de exposição, a atividade diminuiu cerca de 3 vezes, chegando a 4 vezes após 24h, o que indica a atuação de mecanismos eficientes de regulação a curto prazo. Curiosamente, a atividade V-ATPase foi cerca de 2 vezes maior para um tempo de aclimatação de 120h a 21‰, comparado a 24 h, embora 2 vezes menor que a estimada em água doce. Passadas 240 h, a atividade voltou aos baixos níveis observados entre 1h e 24h, o que indica a ação de mecanismos de regulação a longo prazo. Além da diminuição da atividade específica também foi observado aumento da afinidade da enzima por ATP (12 vezes) e Mg2+ (3 vezes) em resposta à exposição dos animais a 21‰. Similarmente, ocorreu um aumento de até 190 vezes na afinidade da enzima por bafilomicina A1. Propõe-se que, em resposta à alteração de salinidade, ocorrem mudanças conformacionais tanto em V1 (onde se encontram os sítios de ligação de ATP e Mg2+) quanto V0 (onde se localiza o sítio de ligação de bafilomicina), resultando numa maior exposição do sítio para o inibidor e no aumento da afinidade por Mg2+ e ATP. Como os aumentos de afinidade são observados já após 1h de exposição, este mecanismo parece ser independente da expressão protéica e, portanto, não estaria relacionado à expressão de isoformas diferentes de alguma das subunidades da enzima. A diminuição da atividade V-ATPase branquial de D. pagei em resposta à exposição a uma salinidade elevada é compatível com os mecanismos propostos para a atuação desta enzima no processo de captura ativa de Na+ em crustáceos dulcícolas. Após 10 dias de aclimatação ainda se tem atividade V-ATPase detectável nas frações microsomais das brânquias posteriores do animal, possivelmente envolvida nas funções de regulação ácido-base e excreção de amônia. Os resultados obtidos para a aclimatação de D. pagei por um período de 10 dias a salinidades entre 5 e 21‰ mostraram também uma diminuição acentuada da atividade V-ATPase em resposta ao aumento da salinidade. Entretanto, com exceção da salinidade mais baixa (5‰) não se observou aumento da afinidade da enzima por bafilomicina, sugerindo que esta alteração seja limitada a tempos de aclimatação mais curtos. Entretanto, também se verificou um aumento acentuado da afinidade da enzima por ATP e Mg2+.
Crustacean arose in the sea but, during evolution, several species invaded lower salinity biotopes, reaching fresh water. The ability of crustaceans to successfully colonize the freshwater biotope depends on efficient mechanisms of hyperosmoregulation. In dilute media, crustaceans\' hemolymph osmolality and ionic composition reflect a balance between diffusive and urinary ion losses, and active ion capture through the gills. The gill (Na,K)- ATPase plays a pivotal role in Na+ capture from dilute environments and its kinetic characteristics are under investigation in recent years, although freshwater crab enzymes are poorly known. According to the most recent model, the apparent affinity for Na+ is the most variable kinetic parameter among gill enzymes from different species, and reflects the salinity of the species\' habitat. Thus, enzymes from species which are well adapted to freshwater usually present higher affinities for Na+. However, several recent results are incompatible with this model. On the other hand, it has been proposed that a V-ATPase is also involved in Na+ capture through the gills of hololimnetic crustaceans. This enzyme is almost completely unknown: its kinetic characteristics have not been studied yet and the relationship between the magnitude of its activity in the gills and the external medium salinity has not been established. This work aimed to characterize the (Na,K)-ATPase and V-ATPase from the posterior gill from the holimnetic crab Dilocarcinus pagei, considered an old fresh water colonizer. The (Na,K)- ATPase was characterized in animals maintained in fresh water, in order to establish a comparison of its kinetic properties with those of enzymes from other crab species that inhabit more saline media. This comparison may enhance our understanding of the biochemical adaptations associated to fresh water invasion. V-ATPase was characterized in animals kept in fresh water or exposed for varying time intervals to a medium of 21? salinity, or else acclimated for 10 days to media of different salinities (5-21?), aiming to establish a relationship between the enzyme specific activity in the gill tissue and the external salinity, and also investigate the mechanisms involved in enzyme activity regulation. The analysis of D. pagei gill microsomes in a continuous-density sucrose gradient revealed two protein peaks (25-35% and 35-45% sucrose), both showing K+-phosphatase, (Na,K)-ATPase and V-ATPase activities. These results indicate the presence of membrane fractions of distinct densities, both presenting the main ion pumps involved in Na+ capture. These membranes may originate from different places in the asymmetric posterior gill epithelium from this crab. Western compared to those reported for other freshwater animals, but similar to those found for estuarine/marine species. In contrast, the apparent affinity for K+ is 2.5 to 5-fold higher than those estimated for species that inhabit more saline media, and is apparently more related to the animals\' habitat than Na+ affinity. This possibility is consistent with the location of the (Na,K)-ATPase in crabs gill tissue, with K+ binding sites exposed to the hemolymph, allowing the direct modulation of enzyme activity by hemolymph K+ concentration. In contrast to data reported for other crab species, D. pagei gill (Na,K)-ATPase activity was not synergistically stimulated by K+ and NH4 +. However, the presence of one of these ions in the reaction medium results in an increase of about 3-fold in the apparent affinity of the enzyme for the other. This kinetic characteristic may be physiologically relevant to assure the transport of both ions, even in the presence of elevated concentrations of the other. Ouabain (3 mmol L-1) inhibited total ATPase activity (? 78%) through a biphasic curve (KI= 6.21 ± 0.32 mol L-1 and 101.2 ± 5.1 mol L-1) reinforcing previous results suggesting the presence of two isoenzymes in the microsomal preparations. A biphasic inhibition by orthovanadate (10 mol L-1) to about 15% residual activity was also observed. Optimal pH for D. pagei gill V-ATPase activity was 7.5. The modulation of enzyme activity of the animal kept in fresh water by ATP (V= 26.5 ± 1.3 U mg-1; K0.5= 3.9 ± 0.2 mmol L-1) and Mg2+ (V = 27.9 ± 1.4 U mg-1; K0.5 =0.80 ± 0.04 mmol L-1) occurred with positive cooperativity. The inhibition of the orthovanadate insensitive ATPase activity by bafilomycin A1 followed a monophasic curve (KI= 55.0 ± 2.8 nmol L-1). About 44 % of total ATPase activity was inhibited, corresponding to the V-ATPase. Dilocarcinus pagei gill V-ATPase activity substantially decreased in response to animal\'s exposure to 21? salinity. After 1h exposure, the activity diminished about 3-fold, reaching 4- fold after 24h, indicating the action of efficient short-time regulation mechanisms. Interestingly, V-ATPase activity was about 2-fold higher after 120h exposure, compared to 24h, although 2- fold lower compared to that estimated in fresh water. After 240h, the activity returned to the low levels observed for 1 and 24 h, indicating efficient long-term regulation. Besides the decrease in specific activity, it was also observed an increase in enzyme\'s apparent affinity for ATP (12 fold) and Mg2+ (3 fold) in response to animal\'s exposure to 21? salinity. Simultaneously, the enzyme\'s affinity for bafilomycin A1 increased up to 190-fold. We propose that, in response to salinity alteration, conformational changes take place both in V1 (in which the ATP and Mg2+ binding sites are located) and V0 (which contains the bafilomycin A1 bindind site), resulting in higher exposition of the inhibitor binding site and also higher affinity for Mg2+ and ATP. As the affinity increases are observed after just 1h exposure, this regulatory mechanism seems to be independent of protein expression and, thus, should not be related to the expression of distinct isoforms of some enzyme subunit. The lowering of gill V-ATPase activity in D. pagei in response to exposure to an elevated salinity is consistent with the mechanisms proposed for the role of this enzyme in active Na+ capture in hololimnetic crustaceans. After 10 days at 21, the gill microsomal fractions still show a little V-ATPase activity, possibly related to acid-base regulation and ammonia excretion processes. The results obtained for the acclimation of D. pagei for 10 days at salinities in the range 5 to 21? also showed a substantial decrease of V-ATPase activity in response to the increase in medium salinity. However, except for 5?, it was not observed an increase of enzyme\'s affinity for bafilomycin, suggesting that this alteration is limited to shorter periods of exposure. However, a significant increase in the enzyme\'s affinity for ATP and Mg2+ was also observed.

Abstract (sommario):
Metazoans have evolved conserved mechanisms to promote cell survival under low oxygen tensions by initiating a transcriptional cascade centered on the action of Hypoxia Inducible transcription Factors (HIFs). In aerobic conditions, HIFs are inactivated by ubiquitin-proteasome-mediated degradation of their a subunit, which is dependent on prolyl hydroxylation by 2-oxoglutarate (2-OG) and Fe(II)-dependent prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs). In hypoxia, HIF-$\alpha$ is no longer hydroxylated and is therefore stabilised, activating a global transcriptional response to ensure cell survival. Interestingly, HIFs can also be activated in aerobic conditions, however the mechanisms of this oxygen-independent regulation are poorly understood. Here, I have explored the role of the vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase), the major proton pump for acidifying intracellular vesicles and facilitating lysosomal degradation, in regulating HIF-$\alpha$ turnover. Unbiased forward genetic screens in near-haploid human cells identified that disruption of the V-ATPase leads to activation of HIFs in aerobic conditions. Rather than preventing the lysosomal degradation of HIF-$\alpha$, I found that V-ATPase inhibition indirectly affects the canonical proteasome-mediated degradation of HIF-$\alpha$ isoforms by altering the intracellular iron pool and preventing HIF-$\alpha$ prolyl hydroxylation. In parallel, I characterised two putative mammalian V-ATPase assembly proteins, TMEM199 and CCDC115, identified by the forward genetic screen and subsequent mass spectrometry analysis. I confirmed that both TMEM199 and CCDC115 are required for V-ATPase function, and established assays to determine how TMEM199 and CCDC115 associate with components of the core V-ATPase complex. Lastly, to measure how V-ATPase activity leads to changes in the labile iron pool, I developed an endogenous iron reporter using CRISPR-Cas9 knock-in technology. This approach confirmed that iron homeostasis is impaired during V-ATPase inhibition, and demonstrated that exogenous ferric iron can restore the labile iron pool in a transferrin-independent manner. Together my studies highlight a crucial link between V-ATPase activity, iron homeostasis, and the hypoxic response pathway.

Abstract (sommario):
Die vakuoläre Protonen-ATPase, kurz V-ATPase, ist ein multimerer Enzymkomplex, der in fast jeder eukaryotischen Zelle zu finden ist und den aktiven elektrogenen Transport von Protonen über Membranen katalysiert. Die Aktivität der V-ATPase ist essentiell für eine Vielzahl physiologischer Prozesse. Ein grundlegender Mechanismus zur Regulation der V-ATPase-Aktivität ist die reversible Dissoziation des Holoenzyms in den integralen VO-Komplex, der als Protonenkanal dient, und den cytosolischen V1-Komplex, der ATP hydrolysiert und somit den Protonentransport energetisiert. Die Untereinheit C, die im dissoziierten Zustand der V-ATPase als einzige Untereinheit isoliert im Cytoplasma vorliegt, scheint bei der Bildung des aktiven Holoenzyms eine Schlüsselrolle zu übernehmen. In den Speicheldrüsen der Schmeißfliege Calliphora vicina ist die V-ATPase an der Speichelsekretion beteiligt. In den sekretorischen Zellen wird die Bildung des V-ATPase-Holoenzyms in der apikalen Plasmamembran durch das Neurohormon Serotonin (5-HT) stimuliert. Der Effekt von 5-HT auf die V-ATPase wird intrazellulär durch die Proteinkinase A (PKA) vermittelt und hält nur für die Dauer der Stimulierung an. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde mittels Phosphoproteinfärbungen und 2D-Elektrophorese nachgewiesen, dass infolge einer Stimulierung der Drüsenzellen mit 5-HT die Untereinheit C der V-ATPase durch die PKA reversibel phosphoryliert wird. Die Phosphorylierung geht einher mit einer Umverteilung der Untereinheit C aus dem Cytoplasma zur apikalen Plasmamembran und der Bildung des aktiven Holoenzyms. Immuncytochemische Untersuchungen zeigten, dass die katalytische Untereinheit der PKA ebenfalls umverteilt wird und in stimulierten Zellen im Bereich der apikalen Plasmamembran konzentriert vorliegt. Um herauszufinden welche Proteinphosphatase der PKA entgegenwirkt, wurden luminale pH-Messungen durchgeführt und der Effekt von spezifischen Proteinphosphatase-Inhibitoren und veresterten Komplexbildnern zweiwertiger Kationen auf die V-ATPase-Aktivität untersucht. Diese Messungen führten zu der Schlussfolgerung, dass eine Proteinphosphatase des Typs 2C an der Inaktivierung der V-ATPase beteiligt ist. Mit weiteren Phosphoproteinfärbungen konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Dephosphorylierung der Untereinheit C ebenfalls durch eine Proteinphosphatase 2C katalysiert wird und dies vermutlich die Dissoziation des VO- und V1-Komplexes begünstigt. Darüber hinaus konnte durch luminale pH-Messungen und ergänzende biochemische Untersuchungen eine Calcineurin-vermittelte Modulation des cAMP/PKA-Signalweges durch den parallel aktivierten IP3/Ca2+-Signalweg und damit einhergehend eine Beeinflussung der V-ATPase-Aktivität durch den [Ca2+]-Spiegel nachgewiesen werden.
The vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a multimeric enzyme that can be found in nearly every eukaryotic cell. It catalyses the active electrogenic transport of protons across membranes and is essential for a multitude of physiological processes. A fundamental mechanism to regulate V-ATPase activity is the reversible dissociation of the holoenzyme into an integral proton conducting VO-complex and a cytosolic V1-complex that hydrolyses ATP and thus energises proton translocation. Subunit C occurs isolated in the cytoplasm upon dissociation of the V-ATPase complexes and seems to be critical for the formation of active holoenzymes. In the salivary glands of the blowfly Calliphora vicina the V-ATPase is involved in fluid secretion. In secretory cells, formation of the V-ATPase holoenzyme is stimulated by the hormone serotonin (5-HT). The effect of 5-HT on V-ATPase activity is mediated by protein kinase A (PKA) and persists for the duration of the 5-HT stimulus. In this study, it was shown by phosphoprotein stainings and two-dimensional electrophoresis that subunit C of the V-ATPase becomes phosphorylated by PKA upon exposure of blowfly salivary glands to 5-HT. Parallel to the phosphorylation event, subunit C translocates from the cytoplasm to the apical plasma membrane for the assembly of active V-ATPase holoenzymes. Using immunofluorescence staining, it could be shown that PKA catalytic subunit translocates as well to the apical membrane upon 5-HT stimulation. To examine which protein phosphatase counteracts PKA, luminal pH-measurements were carried out. Based on the results with protein phosphatase inhibitors and esterified chelating agents of bivalent cations, it may be concluded that a protein phosphatase 2C is involved in the process leading to V-ATPase inactivation. Phosphoprotein stainings revealed that dephosphorylation of subunit C is likewise catalysed by a protein phosphatase 2C. Therefore the dephosphorylation of subunit C seems to promote dissociation of VO- and V1-complexes. Finally, luminal pH-measurements and supplemental biochemical experiments revealed a Ca2+/calcineurin-mediated modulation of the cAMP/PKA signalling cascade and an influence of intracellular calcium on the V-ATPase activity.

Abstract (sommario):
V-ATPases are enzymes found in all eukaryotic cells. They are organized into a peripheral membrane complex (V1) and an integral membrane complex (V0). VI is responsible for ATP hydrolysis and generates the energy used by Vo to pump protons from the cytosol into the vacuole. Subunit d is a component of Vo possibly located at the interface between V 1 and V. in the V-ATPase complex. We hypothesize that subunit d could be involved in the structural and functional coupling of VI and Vo. This was tested by generating point mutations along the open reading frame of subunit d from yeast. The mutations F94A, H128A, D173A, D217A, D261A, E317A, W325A, E328A and C329A, all in conserved regions of the protein sequence, were characterized by examining their growth phenotype and by assessing their ATPase specific activity, proton transport and V1Vo assembly in purified vacuolar membranes. The mutations E317A, W325A, E328A and C329A had reduced ATPase and proton transport activities. In addition, V1Vo assembly was compromised by the mutation W325A. Our results suggest that residues at the carboxyl-end of subunit d are important for ATPase activity, proton pumping and V1Vo assembly at the membrane.

Abstract (sommario):
[Truncated abstract] Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells responsible for the resorption of the mineralized bone matrix during the process of bone remodelling. During activation towards bone resorption, polarization of the osteoclast results in the formation of a unique plasma membrane, the ruffled border, the actual resorptive organelle of the osteoclast. Through this domain protons are actively pumped into the resorption lacuna creating an acidic microenvironment that favours the dissolution of the mineralized bone matrix. The polarised secretion of protons is carried out by the action of the vacuolar-type (H+)-ATPase (V-ATPase), composed of functionally and structurally distinct subunits of the V1 and V0 domains. The general structure of the V-ATPase complex is highly conserved from yeast to mammals, however, multiple isoforms for specific V-ATPase subunits do exist exhibiting differential subcellular, cellular and tissue-specific localizations. This study focuses on the molecular identification and characterization of V-ATPase accessory subunit Ac45 and the d2 isoform of the V0 domain d subunit in osteoclasts. Using the techniques of cDNA Subtractive Hybridization and DNA Micro-Array analyses respectively, the accessory subunit Ac45 and the d2 isoform of the V0 domain d subunit were identified in RAW264.7-cells derived OcLs. ... Using web-based computational predictions, two possible transmembrane domains, an N-terminus 'signal anchor' sequence and a C-terminus dilysine- like endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal were identified. By confocal microscopy, EYFP-tagged e was found to localize to the perinuclear region of transfected COS-7 cells in compartments representing the ER and Golgi apparatus with some localization in late endosomal/lysosomal-like vesicles. ER truncation of e did not alter its subcellular localization but exhibited significantly weaker association with Ac45 compared to the wild-type as depicted by BRET analyses. Association with the other V0 subunits remain unaffected. This may hint at a possibility that Ac45 may play a role in the masking of the ER signal of e following it's incorporation into the V0 domain. Although no solid evidence for a role in the assembly of the mammalian VATPase have been established, subunit e still represents a potential candidate whose role in the V-ATPase complex requires further investigation. Collectively, the data presented in this thesis has provided further insight into the composition of the osteoclast V-ATPase proton pump by: 1) identifying an accessory subunit, Ac45 which shows promise as a potential candidate for the regulation and/or targeting of the V-ATPase complex in osteoclasts and truncation of its targeting signal impairs osteoclastic bone resorption; 2) identification and preliminary characterization of the d2 isoform of the V0 domain d subunit whose exact role in the V-ATPase complex and in osteoclasts remains to be determined, although its has been implicated to be essential for osteoclastic function; and 3) Preliminary characterization of subunit-e, a potential assembly factor candidate for the mammalian V-ATPase V0 domain.

Abstract (sommario):
V-ATPase is a proton pump mainly localized on lysosomes and on plasma membrane of specialized cells. It is responsible of proton translocation and acidification of intra- and extra-cellular environment. Our group demonstrated that the over-expression of the subunit G1 (V1G1) is involved in the maintenance of the stem cell niche in glioblastoma (GBM) and correlates with poor prognosis in GBM patients. In this work we aimed to elucidate the role of V-ATPase in GBM stem cells from a functional perspective. We demonstrated that neurospheres (NS) with higher levels of V1G1 subunit (High-V1G1), compared with NS with lower levels of V1G1 (Low-V1G1), were characterized by increased clonogenicity in vitro and in vivo, invasiveness, lysosomal acidification and ERK pathway activation. Specific inhibition of V-ATPase activity, by Bafilomycin (BafA1), but not of ERK or other lysosomal drugs, induced reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated apoptosis only in High-V1G1 NS. In addition, BafA1 treatment affected mitochondria homeostasis only in High-V1G1 NS. Preliminary experiments suggested that a V-ATPase pump might be localized on the mitochondria or it could mediate direct contacts between mitochondria and lysosomes thus causing an imbalance of charges (proton flux) when perturbed. Finally, High-V1G1 and Low-V1G1 NS differed in terms of metabolic behaviours: preferential use of glycolysis by Low-V1G1 NS opposite to use of oxidative metabolism in High-V1G1 NS. V-ATPase block by BafA1 in High-V1G1 NS shifted their metabolism to that of Low-V1G1 NS. On the other hand, the autophagic pathway, that is directly connected with lysosomal function, was blocked by BafA1 only in Low-V1G1 NS. These phenotypes were not modulated by ERK or lysosomal acidification inhibitors alone, indicating a specific role for V-ATPase proton pump in modulating them. Taken together, these results indicate that V-ATPase is crucial for GBM stem cells viability through different mechanisms that include bioenergetics sensing and requiring, mitochondrial homeostasis and ERK signalling activity.

Abstract (sommario):
The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is one of the most fundamental enzymes in nature. It pumps protons into the vacuolar system of eukaryotic cells and provides the energy for numerous transport systems. Through our BARD grant we discovered a novel family of membrane chaperones that modulate the amount of membrane proteins. We also elucidated the mechanism by which assembly factors guide the membrane sector of V-ATPase from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. The major goal of the research was to understand the mechanism of action and biogenesis of V-ATPase in higher plants and fungi. The fundamental question of the extent of acidification in organelles of the vacuolar system was addressed by studying the V-ATPase of lemon fruit, constructing lemon cDNAs libraries and study their expression in mutant yeast cells. The biogenesis of the enzyme and its function in the Golgi apparatus was studied in yeast utilizing a gallery of secretory mutants available in our laboratories. One of the goals of this project is to determine biochemically and genetically how V-ATPase is assembled into the different membranes of a wide variety of organelles and what is the mechanism of its action.The results of this project advanced out knowledge along these lines.

Abstract (sommario):
In the original proposal we planned to focus on two proteins related to the actin cytoskeleton: TCH2, a touch-induced calmodulin-like protein which was found by us to interact with the IQ domain of myosin VIII, ATM1; and ERD10, a dehydrin which was found to associate with actin filaments. As reported previously, no other dehydrins were found to interact with actin filaments. In addition so far we were unsuccessful in confirming the interaction of TCH2 with myosin VIII using other methods. In addition, no other myosin light chain candidates were found in a yeast two hybrid survey. Nevertheless we have made a significant progress in our studies of the role of myosins in plant cells. Plant myosins have been implicated in various cellular activities, such as cytoplasmic streaming (1, 2), plasmodesmata function (3-5), organelle movement (6-10), cytokinesis (4, 11, 12), endocytosis (4, 5, 13-15) and targeted RNA transport (16). Plant myosins belong to two main groups of unconventional myosins: myosin XI and myosin VIII, both closely related to myosin V (17-19). The Arabidopsis myosin family contains 17 members: 13 myosin XI and four myosin VIII (19, 20). The data obtained from our research of myosins was published in two papers acknowledging BARD funding. To address whether specific myosins are involved with the motility of specific organelles, we cloned the cDNAs from neck to tail of all 17 Arabidopsis myosins. These were fused to GFP and used as dominant negative mutants that interact with their cargo but are unable to walk along actin filaments. Therefore arrested organelle movement in the presence of such a construct shows that a particular myosin is involved with the movement of that particular organelle. While no mutually exclusive connections between specific myosins and organelles were found, based on overexpression of dominant negative tail constructs, a group of six myosins (XIC, XIE, XIK, XI-I, MYA1 and MYA2) were found to be more important for the motility of Golgi bodies and mitochondria in Nicotiana benthamiana and Nicotiana tabacum (8). Further deep and thorough analysis of myosin XIK revealed a potential regulation by head and tail interaction (Avisar et al., 2011). A similar regulatory mechanism has been reported for animal myosin V and VIIa (21, 22). In was shown that myosin V in the inhibited state is in a folded conformation such that the tail domain interacts with the head domain, inhibiting its ATPase and actinbinding activities. Cargo binding, high Ca2+, and/or phosphorylation may reduce the interaction between the head and tail domains, thus restoring its activity (23). Our collaborative work focuses on the characterization of the head tail interaction of myosin XIK. For this purpose the Israeli group built yeast expression vectors encoding the myosin XIK head. In addition, GST fusions of the wild-type tail as well as a tail mutated in the amino acids that mediate head to tail interaction. These were sent to the US group who is working on the isolation of recombinant proteins and performing the in vitro assays. While stress signals involve changes in Ca2+ levels in plants cells, the cytoplasmic streaming is sensitive to Ca2+. Therefore plant myosin activity is possibly regulated by stress. This finding is directly related to the goal of the original proposal.
