项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Tail-anchored (TA) proteins account for 5% of all integral membrane proteins and are characterized by a single carboxyl transmembrane domain (TMD) and a cytosolic-facing N-terminus. TA proteins play essential roles in numerous cellular pathways such as membrane biogenesis, vesicular trafficking, and apoptosis. Moreover, they are implicated in many diseases including cancer, heart disease, diabetes, as well as viral infections. In contrast to most membrane proteins, TA proteins are inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane through the recently discovered, post- translational insertion GET (guided entry of TA proteins) pathway. In the GET pathway, TA proteins bound to Get3 (an ATPase chaperone), are recruited to a Get1/2 receptor complex in the ER. The goals of this proposal are to determine the physiological stoichiometry and dynamics of the Get1/2 receptor required for TA protein insertion. To this end, fluorescence and EPR spectroscopy techniques will be used to determine the oligomeric state of the receptor complex. Additionally, these methodologies will also be used to monitor the structural dynamics of the Get1/2 complex in various environments. These experiments will significantly aid in elucidating the mechanism of TA protein insertion via the GET insertion pathway. Interestingly, the therapeutic relevance of the GET pathway is further supported by the recent identification of CHD5 (congenital heart disease 5) as the human ortholog of Get1. CHD5, which function was previously unknown, is abundantly expressed in human fetal heart, kidney, lungs, and liver and has been linked to the progression of congenital heart disease in Down Syndrome patients. Due to the classification of CHD5 as a component of the GET pathway and the presence of numerous cardiac TA proteins in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), the second aim of this proposal is to explore the role of CHD5 in cardiac TA protein insertion into the SR/ER using RNAi technology, cellular techniques, and confocal microscopy. Altogether, these experiments will establish the potential roles that the GET pathway may play in heart development and/or disease.

描述（由申请人提供）：尾锚定（TA）蛋白占所有整合膜蛋白的 5%，其特征在于单个羧基跨膜结构域（TMD）和面向胞质的 N 末端。 TA 蛋白在许多细胞途径中发挥重要作用，例如膜生物发生、囊泡运输和细胞凋亡。此外，它们还与许多疾病有关，包括癌症、心脏病、糖尿病以及病毒感染。与大多数膜蛋白不同，TA 蛋白通过最近发现的翻译后插入 GET（TA 蛋白引导进入）途径插入内质网 (ER) 膜。在 GET 途径中，与 Get3（一种 ATP 酶伴侣）结合的 TA 蛋白被募集到 ER 中的 Get1/2 受体复合物中。该提案的目标是确定 TA 蛋白插入所需的 Get1/2 受体的生理化学计量和动力学。为此，将使用荧光和 EPR 光谱技术来确定受体复合物的寡聚状态。此外，这些方法还将用于监测 Get1/2 复合物在各种环境中的结构动态。这些实验将显着有助于阐明 TA 蛋白通过 GET 插入途径插入的机制。有趣的是，最近将 CHD5（先天性心脏病 5）鉴定为 Get1 的人类直系同源物进一步支持了 GET 途径的治疗相关性。 CHD5 的功能以前未知，但在人类胎儿心脏、肾脏、肺和肝脏中大量表达，并且与唐氏综合症患者先天性心脏病的进展有关。由于CHD5被归类为GET途径的一个组成部分，并且肌浆网（SR）中存在大量心脏TA蛋白，因此该提案的第二个目的是探索CHD5在心脏TA蛋白插入SR中的作用/ER 使用 RNAi 技术、细胞技术和共聚焦显微镜。总之，这些实验将确定 GET 途径在心脏发育和/或疾病中可能发挥的潜在作用。
