Mutations of vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 33b (VPS33B) cause arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction, and cholestasis syndrome, and a lack of platelet -granules in the affected patients. Conditional Vps33b knockout mice were developed to investigate the function(s) of Vps33b in platelet -granule formation. We found that early embryonic deletion of Vps33b was lethal. PF4-Cre-driven megakaryocyte-targeted Vps33b gene deletion greatly diminished Vps33b expression in platelets, but had no effect on platelet -granule formation and protein content. Tamoxifen-induced, haematopoietic stem cell (HSC)-specific Vps33b deletion completely depleted Vps33b in platelets, caused the absence of -granules, and increased the number of vacuoles in platelets and megakaryocytes. VPS33B association with VIPAS39, -tubulin, and SEC22B was identified by co-immunoprecipitation, mass spectra, and immunoblotting in human embryonic kidney 293T (HEK293T) cells. Also, pull-down experiments revealed that VIPAS39 bound to intact VPS33B; in contrast, -tubulin and SEC22B separately interacted with the sec1-like domains of VPS33B. Vps33b deficiency in megakaryocytes disturbs the redistribution of Vipas39 and Sec22b to proplatelets, and interrupted the co-localization of Sec22b with Vwf-positive vesicles. The data presented in this study suggest that Vps33b is involved in -granule formation possibly by facilitating the Vwf-positive vesicular trafficking to -granule-related vacuoles in megakaryocytes.
