项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Alzheimer's, cystic fibrosis, infectious diseases, and cancer all have a common feature: failure to efficiently destroy incorrectly folded or assembled proteins. Transmembrane and secreted proteins use a signal peptide (SP) to direct translation to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where an error-prone process of protein folding and modification occur. The ER-associated degradation (ERAD) process identifies misfolded proteins, leading to addition of ubiquitin chains using E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. Polyubiquitinated proteins then are extracted from the ER membrane, a process known as retrotranslocation or dislocation, and delivered to cytosolic proteasomes for degradation. Many pathogens, including viruses and bacteria, exploit ERAD to further their dissemination. Mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) is a complex retrovirus that uses ERAD for replication and induction of breast cancer and leukemia. MMTV produces a regulatory protein (Rem), which is directed to the ER by a long signal peptide (Rem-SP) containing all the functional motifs found in HIV Rev. Rem is cleaved by signal peptidase in the ER lumen to yield N-terminal Rem-SP and a unique C-terminus (RemCT). In an unprecedented pathway, Rem-SP is retrotranslocated to the cytosol, where it avoids proteasomal degradation prior to nuclear import. Rem-SP then binds viral RNA to allow efficient nuclear export and expression. Although retrotranslocation is believed to require polyubiquitination of target proteins, our preliminary data indicate that the E enzyme used for all known ERAD substrates is dispensable for Rem-SP retrotranslocation. Our hypothesis is that Rem-SP uses a previously unknown process that does not require polyubiquitination or the E1 enzyme Uba1 for retrotranslocation. In the first specific aim, two approaches will be used to identify cellular components involved in subversion of ERAD. C-terminal GFP tagging of Rem blocks retrotranslocation and will be used to purify a retrotranslocation intermediate and associated cellular proteins for analysis by mass spectrometry. An alternative approach will use a fluorescence-based reporter assay and a small-hairpin library to identify new cellular proteins involved in ERAD and Rem trafficking. In the second specific aim, exciting preliminary data have been presented showing that MMTV proviruses lacking RemCT expression have many G to A mutations compared to wild-type proviruses. Co-expression of Rem and activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID), a known mutagen required for antibody somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination, results in AID degradation. We propose that MMTV is the first virus to antagonize AID to avoid both viral genome mutation and maturation of the MMTV-specific antibody response. This idea will be tested by monitoring RemCT localization and its ability to antagonize cellular cytidine deaminases both in cell culture and in knockout mice in vivo. Further understanding of ERAD and intrinsic immunity are essential to develop new treatments for cancer and pathogenic viral infections.

描述（由申请人提供）：阿尔茨海默病、囊性纤维化、传染病和癌症都有一个共同的特征：不能有效地破坏错误折叠或组装的蛋白质。跨膜和分泌蛋白使用信号肽（SP）直接翻译到内质网（ER），在内质网中发生蛋白质折叠和修饰的错误过程。er相关降解（ERAD）过程识别错误折叠的蛋白质，导致使用E1， E2和E3酶添加泛素链。然后，多泛素化蛋白从内质网膜中提取，这一过程被称为逆转录或错位，并被运送到细胞质蛋白酶体中降解。包括病毒和细菌在内的许多病原体利用ERAD进一步传播。小鼠乳腺肿瘤病毒（MMTV）是一种复杂的逆转录病毒，利用ERAD复制并诱导乳腺癌和白血病。MMTV产生一种调节蛋白（Rem），该蛋白通过含有HIV rev中发现的所有功能基元的长信号肽（Rem- sp）定向到内质网。Rem在内质网腔中被信号肽酶切割，产生n端Rem- sp和一个独特的c端（RemCT）。在一个前所未有的途径中，Rem-SP逆转录到细胞质中，在那里它避免了核输入之前的蛋白酶体降解。然后，Rem-SP结合病毒RNA，允许有效的核输出和表达。虽然逆转录易位被认为需要靶蛋白的多泛素化，但我们的初步数据表明，用于所有已知ERAD底物的E酶对于Rem-SP逆转录易位是必不可少的。我们的假设是，Rem-SP使用了一个以前未知的过程，不需要多泛素化或E1酶Uba1进行逆转录。在第一个具体目标中，将使用两种方法来识别涉及ERAD颠覆的细胞成分。Rem的c端GFP标记阻断了反转录易位，并将用于纯化反转录易位中间体和相关细胞蛋白，用于质谱分析。另一种替代方法将使用基于荧光的报告试验和小发夹文库来鉴定参与ERAD和Rem运输的新细胞蛋白。在第二个特定目标中，令人兴奋的初步数据显示，与野生型前病毒相比，缺乏RemCT表达的MMTV前病毒具有许多G到A突变。Rem和激活诱导胞苷脱氨酶（AID）的共同表达导致AID降解，这是抗体体细胞超突变和类开关重组所需的已知突变原。我们认为MMTV是第一个对抗AID的病毒，从而避免了病毒基因组突变和MMTV特异性抗体反应的成熟。这一想法将通过监测RemCT定位及其在细胞培养和敲除小鼠体内拮抗细胞胞苷脱氨酶的能力来验证。进一步了解ERAD和内在免疫对于开发癌症和致病性病毒感染的新疗法至关重要。
