Factor VIII (FVIII) and factor V (FV) are homologous coagulation cofactors sharing a similar domain organization (A1-A2-B-A3-C1-C2) and are both extensively glycosylated within their B-domains. In mammalian cell expression systems, compared with FV, the FVIII primary translation product is inefficiently transported out of the endoplasmic reticulum. Here we show that FVIII is degraded within the cell by a lactacystin-inhibitable pathway, implicating the cytosolic 20 S proteasome machinery. Protein chaperones calnexin (CNX) and calreticulin (CRT) preferentially interact with glycoproteins containing monoglucosylated N-linked oligosaccharides and are proposed to traffic proteins through degradative and/or secretory pathways. Utilizing co-immunoprecipitation assays, intracellular FVIII was detected in association with CNX maximally within 30 min to 1 h following synthesis, whereas FV could not be detected in association with CNX. In contrast, both FVIII and FV displayed interaction with CRT during transit through the secretory pathway. B-domain deleted FVIII significantly reduced the CNX and CRT interaction, indicating the B-domain may represent a primary CNX and CRT interaction site. In the presence of inhibitors of glucose trimming, the interactions of FVIII with CNX, and of FVIII and FV with CRT, were significantly reduced whereas the secretion of FVIII, and not FV, was inhibited. In addition, transfection in a glucosidase I-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cell line (Lec23) demonstrated that both degradation and secretion of FVIII were inhibited, with little effect on the secretion of FV. These results support that CNX and CRT binding, mediated at least in part by the B-domain of FVIII, is required for efficient FVIII degradation and secretion. In contrast, FV does not require CNX interaction for efficient secretion. The results suggest a unique requirement for carbohydrate processing and molecular chaperone interactions that may limit the productive secretion of FVIII.

Classical class I molecules assemble in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with peptides mostly generated from cytosolic proteins by the proteasome. The activity of the proteasome can be modulated by a variety of accessory protein complexes. A subset of the proteasome beta-subunits (LMP2, LMP7, and MECL-1) and one of the accessory complexes, PA28, are upregulated by gamma-interferon and affect the generation of peptides to promote more efficient antigen recognition. The peptides are translocated into the ER by the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). A transient complex containing a class I heavy chain-beta 2 microglobulin (beta 2 m) dimer is assembled onto the TAP molecule by successive interactions with the ER chaperones calnexin and calreticulin and a specialized molecule, tapasin. Peptide binding releases the class I-beta 2 m dimer for transport to the cell surface, while lack of binding results in proteasome-mediated degradation. The products of certain nonclassical MHC-linked class I genes bind peptides in a similar way. A homologous set of beta 2 m-associated membrane glycoproteins, the CD1 molecules, appears to bind lipid-based ligands within the endocytic pathway.

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) deficiency is a common inherited disorder linked to increased susceptibility to infection and malignancy. We identified a novel missense mutation in the MPO gene at codon 173 whereby tyrosine is replaced with cysteine (Y173C) that is associated with MPO deficiency and assessed its impact on MPO processing and targeting in transfectants expressing normal or mutant proteins. Although the precursor synthesized by cells expressing the Y173C mutation (MPOY173C) was glycosylated, associated with the molecular chaperones calreticulin and calnexin, and acquired heme, it was neither proteolytically processed to mature MPO subunits nor secreted. After prolonged association with calreticulin and calnexin in the endoplasmic reticulum, MPOY173C was degraded. Furthermore, the 20S proteasome inhibitor N-acetyl-L-leucinyl-L-leucinyl-L-norleucinyl inhibited its degradation, suggesting that the proteasome mediates proteolysis of MPOY173C and, thus, participates in quality control in this novel form of hereditary MPO deficiency.

The proper folding and assembly of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intricate process involving a number of components. Nascent heavy chains of MHC class I molecules, translocated into the ER membrane, are rapidly glycosylated and bind the transmembrane chaperone calnexin. In humans, after dissociation from calnexin, fully oxidized MHC class I heavy chains associate with beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) and the soluble chaperone calreticulin. This complex interacts with another transmembrane protein, tapasin, which is believed to assist in MHC class I folding as well as in mediating the interaction between assembling MHC class I molecules and the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP). The TAP heterodimer (TAP1-TAP2) introduces the final component of the MHC class I molecule by translocating peptides, predominately generated by the proteasome, from the cytosol into the ER where they can bind dimers of beta 2M and the MHC class I heavy chain. Recently, the thiol oxidoreductase ERp57--also known as GRP58, ERp61, ER60, Q2, HIP-70, and CPT and first misidentified as phospholipase C-alpha--has been shown to bind in conjunction with calnexin or calreticulin to a number of newly synthesized ER glycoproteins when their N-linked glycans are trimmed by glucosidases I and II. It was speculated that ERp57 is a generic component of the glycan-dependent ER quality control system. Here, we show that ERp57 is a component of the MHC class I peptide-loading complex. ERp57 might influence the folding of MHC class I molecules at a critical step in peptide loading.

During T cell development, assembly of the mutisubunit T cell receptor (TCR) complex is regulated by the differential stability of newly synthesized TCRalpha molecules, having a half-life of approximately 20 min in immature CD4+CD8+ thymocytes compared with >75 min in mature T cells. The molecular basis for TCRalpha instability in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes is unknown but has been postulated to involve abnormalities in N-glycan processing and calnexin assembly as perturbation of these pathways markedly destabilizes TCRalpha proteins in all other T cell types examined. Here, we compared the processing of TCRalpha glycoproteins and their assembly with calnexin and calreticulin chaperones in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes and splenic T cells. These studies show that TCRalpha glycoproteins synthesized in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes were processed in a similar manner as those made in splenic T cells and that TCRalpha proteins stably associated with calnexin in both cell types. Interestingly, however, TCRalpha association with the calnexin-related molecule calreticulin was decreased in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes compared with splenic T cells. Finally, TCRalpha degradation in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes was impaired by inhibitors of proteasome activity, which was correlated with stabilization of calnexin.TCRalpha complexes. These data demonstrate that calnexin association is not sufficient to protect TCRalpha proteins from rapid degradation in CD4+CD8+ thymocytes, suggesting that additional components of the quality control system of the endoplasmic reticulum operate to ensure the proper folding of nascent TCRalpha glycoproteins.

Proteins entering the secretory pathway may be glycosylated upon transfer of an oligosaccharide (Glc3Man9GlcNAc2) from a dolichol-P-P derivative to nascent polypeptide chains in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Oligosaccharides are then deglucosylated by glucosidases I and II (GII). Also in the ER, glycoproteins acquire their final tertiary structures, and species that fail to fold properly are retained and eventually degraded in the proteasome. It has been proposed that in mammalian cells the monoglucosylated oligosaccharides generated either by partial deglucosylation of the transferred compound or by reglucosylation of glucose-free oligosaccharides by the UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (GT) are recognized by ER resident lectins (calnexin and/or calreticulin). GT is a sensor of glycoprotein conformation as it only glucosylates misfolded species. The lectin-monoglucosylated oligosaccharide interaction would retain glycoproteins in the ER until correctly folded, and also facilitate their acquisition of proper tertiary structures by preventing aggregation. GII would liberate glycoproteins from the calnexin/calreticulin anchor, but species not properly folded would be reglucosylated by GT, and so continue to be retained by the lectins. Only when the protein becomes properly folded would it cease to be retained by the lectins. This review presents evidence suggesting that a similar quality control mechanism of glycoprotein folding is operative in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and that the mechanism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae probably differs substantially from that occurring in mammalian and Sch. pombe cells.

The optimal level of oxygen-dependent microbicidal activity in human neutrophils depends on the generation of highly toxic products, including hypochlorous acid, by hydrogen peroxide in the presence of chloride anion and the neutrophil granule protein myeloperoxidase (MPO). The biosynthesis of MPO is normally restricted to the promyelocytic stage of myeloid development and includes N-linked glycosylation, heme insertion, proteolytic processing, subunit dimerization, and eventual targeting to the azurophilic granule. In the endoplasmic reticulum, MPO precursors interact transiently with calreticulin and calnexin, presumably in their capacity as molecular chaperones. In light of the important role of the MPO-H2O2-chloride system in human host defense, the relatively high prevalence of inherited MPO deficiency was an unanticipated insight provided by the widespread use of automated flow cytometry for the enumeration of leukocytes in clinical specimens. In many cases of inherited MPO deficiency, affected neutrophils have immunochemical evidence of precursor protein but lack the subunits of mature MPO, peroxidase activity, or the ability to chlorinate target proteins. To date, four genotypes have been reported to cause inherited MPO deficiency, each of which results in missense mutations. In the genotype Y173C, the mutant precursor is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum by virtue of its prolonged interaction with calnexin, and it eventually undergoes degradation in the 20S proteasome. In this way, the quality control system operating in the endoplasmic reticulum retrieves malfolded MPO precursors from the biosynthetic pathway and creates the biochemical phenotype of MPO deficiency. Thus MPO deficiency caused by Y173C joins the ranks of cystic fibrosis, protein C deficiency, and other genetic disorders that reflect abnormalities in protein folding.

beta(2)-Microglobulin (beta(2)m)-associated human CD1b proteins present lipid and glycolipid antigens, which are loaded on CD1b in endosomal compartments. In contrast, the related MHC class I molecules acquire antigenic peptides in the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we investigated the biogenesis of CD1b before beta(2)m binding in comparison to MHC class I. In beta(2)m-deficient FO-1 cells, we found CD1b heavy chains (HC) complexed with the chaperones calnexin and calreticulin, while MHC class I HC associated only with calnexin. Despite this difference, both CD1b HC and MHC class I HC were degraded when the chaperone interactions were prevented by the glucosidase inhibitor castanospermine. The degradation of both molecules included the proteasome and mannosidases. Chaperone-unassociated CD1b could be rescued from degradation by supplementing FO-1 cells with beta(2)m. Finally, prevention of chaperone interaction significantly reduced neoexpression of CD1b upon differentiation of monocytes to dendritic cells, underlining the importance of chaperones for proper expression of CD1b under physiological conditions.

Sendai virus envelope glycoproteins, F and HN, mature during their transport through the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi complex. To better understand their maturation processes in the ER, we investigated the time course of their interactions with three ER- resident molecular chaperones, BiP, calnexin (CNX), and calreticulin (CRT), in Sendai virus-infected HeLa cells. Pulse-chase and immunoprecipitation analyses using antibodies against each virus glycoprotein or ER chaperone revealed that F precursor interacted with CNX transiently (t(1/2)=8 min), while HN protein displayed longer and sequential interactions with BiP (t(1/2)=8 min), CNX (t(1/2)=15 min), and CRT (t(1/2)=20 min). HN interacted with the three ER chaperones not only as a monomer but also as a tetramer for several hours, suggesting mechanism(s) to undergo chaperone-mediated quality control of an assembled HN oligomer in the ER. The kinetics of dissociation of the HN-chaperone complexes exhibited a marked delay in the presence of proteasome inhibitors, suggesting that a part of HN associated with BiP, CNX, and CRT is destined to be degraded in the proteasome-dependent pathway. Further, the associations between virus glycoproteins and CNX or CRT were impaired by castanospermine, an inhibitor of ER glucosidase I and II, confirming that these interactions require monoglucosylated oligosaccharide on F(0) and HN peptides. These findings together suggest that newly synthesized F protein undergoes rapid maturation in the ER through a transient interaction with CNX, whereas HN protein requires more complex processes involving prolonged association with BiP, CNX, and CRT for its quality control in the ER.

Human thyroperoxidase (hTPO) is a type I transmembrane-bound heme-containing glycoprotein that catalyzes the synthesis of thyroid hormones. In a previous study we stably expressed hTPO in Chinese hamster ovary cells and observed that after the synthesis, only 20% of the hTPO molecules were recognized by a monoclonal antibody (mAb 15) directed against a conformational structure, and that only 2% were able to reach the cell surface. In the present study it was proposed to determine how calnexin (CNX) and calreticulin (CRT) contribute to the folding of hTPO. Sequential immunoprecipitation was performed using anti-CNX or anti-CRT followed by anti-hTPO antibodies, and the results showed that CNX and CRT were associated with hTPO. Inhibiting the interactions between CNX or CRT and hTPO using castanospermine greatly reduced the first step(s) in the hTPO folding process. Under these conditions, the half-life of this enzyme was greatly reduced (2.5 vs. 17 h in the control experiments), and hTPO was degraded via the proteasome pathway. This reduced the rate of hTPO transport to the cell surface. Overexpression of CNX or CRT into the hTPO-CHO cells was found to enhance the first hTPO folding step(s) by 20-60%, but did not increase the level of hTPO present at the cell surface. All in all, these findings provide evidence that CNX and CRT are crucial to the first step(s) in hTPO folding, but that interactions with other molecular chaperones are required for the last folding steps to take place.
