项目摘要

In this study, we characterized the function of Hrs and its binding protein (Hbp), which are thought to be involved in regulation of vesicular transport in endocytosis and exocytosis, and obtained the following results.1. Analysis of the cells expressing various mutants of Hrs revealed that the FYVE finger domain, that binds specifically to phosphatidylinosital 3-phosphate, is not required for the localization of Hrs to early endosomes, and a sequence of about 100 amino acids within the Cterminal proline-and glutamine-rich region was identified as a domain essential for the targeting of Hrs to early endosomes.2. Expression vectors encoding the EGF receptor and PDGF receptor fused to the GFP protein were constructed and transfected into PAE cells, and cell lines which stably expressed the fusion proteins were obtained. Expression vectors encoding Hrs or its mutants were transiently transfected into the cell lines, and the localization of the receptors fused to the GFP protein was analyzed. The results obtained suggest that Hrs plays a regulatory role in sorting of transport of the growth factor receptors from early endosomes.3. Expression vectors encoding dominant-negative mutants of Hbp were transfected into RBL-2H3 mast cells, and cell lines which stably expressed the mutants were obtained. Analysis of the cell lines demonstrated that the dominant-negative mutants of Hbp significantly inhibited IgE receptor (FcεRI)-triggered secretory response as tested by β-hexosaminidase release. These results suggest that Hbp functions as a regulator in the FcεRI-triggered degranulation of secretory grantules in mast cells.

在本研究中，我们表征了Hrs及其结合蛋白(Hbp)的功能，这些蛋白被认为参与胞吞作用和胞吐作用中的囊泡运输的调节，并获得了以下结果： 1． Hrs 揭示了特异性结合磷脂酰肌醇 3-磷酸的 FYVE 指结构域对于 Hrs 定位到早期内体并不需要，并且序列约为 100 C末端富含脯氨酸和谷氨酰胺的区域内的氨基酸被鉴定为Hrs靶向早期核内体所必需的结构域。构建了编码与GFP蛋白融合的EGF受体和PDGF受体的表达载体并转染到PAE细胞中。获得稳定表达融合蛋白的细胞系，将编码Hrs或其突变体的表达载体瞬时转染至细胞系中，并定位与GFP融合的受体。分析结果表明，Hrs在生长因子受体从早期内体的转运中起调节作用。3．将编码Hbp显性失活突变体的表达载体转染至RBL-2H3肥大细胞和细胞系中。对细胞系的分析表明，Hbp 的显性失活突变体显着抑制 IgE 受体 (FcεRI) 触发的分泌反应。这些结果表明，Hbp 在 FcεRI 触发的肥大细胞分泌颗粒脱颗粒中发挥调节作用。
