PROJECT SUMMARY
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) causes irreversible blindness in individuals of all ages. It affects ~1 in 3,500 people
worldwide. While RP is initially characterized by night blindness and peripheral vision loss, most RP patients
lose their central vision and become legally blind by the age of 40. There is no treatment to slow or stop
vision loss. Mislocalization of the light-absorbing protein rhodopsin in the rods is a common hallmark shared
by many animal models of RP. The long-term objective of this application is to dissect the molecular pathway
that underlies the sorting and delivery of the rhodopsin and determine its disease relevance. This information
will accelerate the discovery of new treatments for RP and other retinal degenerative diseases. In the
mammalian rods, which are highly compartmentalized, rhodopsin is synthesized in the biosynthetic
organelles confined to the inner segment. Rhodopsin is then vectorially delivered to and concentrated in the
outer segment (OS). While rhodopsin’s trafficking through the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi pathway has
been investigated, the importance of the endosome in rhodopsin’s OS targeting is unclear. In many other cell
types, the endosome s erves as a key sorting station for proteins at the crossroads of multiple intracellular
trafficking pathways. Prolonged endosomal accumulation of fly rhodopsin has been shown to lead to light-
dependent retinal degeneration. Our preliminary results showed that the newly-synthesized rhodopsin
transits through the endosomal compartments in mouse rods in vivo. The OS targeting signal of the
rhodopsin binds to an early endosome-specific protein, SARA. SARA deficiency in mouse rods not only
causes rhodopsin mislocalization but also several other cellular defects in the endolysosomal system. In this
application, we will test the central hypothesis that in mammalian rods the trans-endosomal pathway critically
regulates the fidelity and the efficiency of the OS targeting of rhodopsin. First, we will address whether the
RP mutant rhodopsins are retained in the endosomes abnormally during their transit to the OS, and whether
this defect perturbs the homeostasis of other endomembranes (Aim1). We will generate multiple,
complementary mouse models to examine the role of the trans-endosomal pathway in the morphogenesis of
the OS and its rhodopsin expression (Aim2). We will also profile the rod proteins that transit through the
endosomal system and characterize their interaction with key endosomal trafficking regulators (Aim3). We
will achieve these aims by applying state-of-the-art techniques such as rod-specific inducible gene
expression and gene deletion, super-resolution confocal microscopy, correlative light-electron microscopy,
and 3D scanning electron microscopy. By providing mechanistic insights on photoreceptor protein trafficking
and OS biogenesis, this research will contribute to the development of new therapies for RP and related
diseases.
