The glucose regulated proteins (GRPs) are major structural components of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and are involved in the import, folding, and processing of ER proteins. Expression of the glucose regulated proteins (GRP78 and GRP94) is greatly increased after cells are exposed to stress agents (including A23187 and tunicamycin) which inhibit ER function. Here, we demonstrate that three novel inhibitors of ER function, thapsigargin (which inhibits the ER Ca(2+)-ATPase), brefeldin A (an inhibitor of vesicle transport between the ER and Golgi) and AIF4-, (which inhibits trimeric G-proteins), can increase the expression of both GRP78 and 94. The common characteristic shared by activators of GRP expression is that they disrupt some function of the ER. The increased levels of GRPs may be a response to the accumulation of aberrant proteins in the ER or they may be increased in response to structural/functional damage to the ER. The increased accumulation of GRP78 mRNA after exposure of cells to either thapsigargin, brefeldin A, AIF4-, A23187, or tunicamycin can be blocked by pre-incubation in cycloheximide. In contrast, accumulation of GRPs after exposure to hypoxia was independent of cycloheximide. In addition, the protein kinase inhibitor genistein blocked the thapsigargin induced accumulation of GRP78 mRNA, whereas the protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid caused increased accumulation of GRP78 mRNA. The data indicates that there are at least 2 mechanisms for induced expression of GRPs, one of which involves a phosphorylation step and requires new protein synthesis (e.g., thapsigargin, A23187) and one which is independent of both these steps (hypoxia).

Immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP, GRP 78) coprecipitates with soluble and membrane-associated variants of the T-cell antigen receptor alpha chain (TCR-alpha) which are stably retained within the ER. Chelation of Ca2+ during solubilization of cells leads to the dissociation of BiP from the TCR-alpha variants, which is dependent upon the availability of Mg2+ and hydrolyzable ATP; this suggests that Ca2+ levels can serve to modulate the association/dissociation of these proteins with BiP. In vivo treatment of cells expressing either the soluble or membrane-anchored TCR-alpha variants with the Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, or an inhibitor of an ER Ca(2+)-ATPase, thapsigargin, or the membrane-permeant Ca2+ chelator BAPTA-AM, results in the redistribution of these proteins out of the ER and their subsequent secretion or cell surface expression. Under the same assay conditions, no movement of BiP out of the ER is observed. Taken together, these observations indicate that decreased Ca2+ levels result in the dissociation of a protein bound to BiP, leading to its release from ER retention. These data suggest that the intracellular fate of newly synthesized proteins stably associated with BiP can be regulated by Ca2+ levels in the ER.

Immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (BiP/GRP78) is a resident endoplasmic reticulum protein that binds tightly to a number of incompletely assembled or aberrant proteins. BiP also binds ATP and can be purified by ATP affinity chromatography. Here we show that an ATPase activity co-purifies with BiP prepared from canine pancreas. The BiP-associated ATPase has a high affinity for ATP but a low turnover number, suggesting a regulatory, rather than an enzymatic role. We also show that submicromolar levels of ATP or ADP decrease the rate of adsorption of [125I]BiP to nitrocellulose filters coated with protein or non-ionic detergents. In contrast, micromolar levels of AMP increase the rate of adsorption. Furthermore, ATP and ADP decrease the susceptibility of BiP to proteolytic degradation, whereas AMP was found to enhance degradation slightly. Adenine nucleotides may therefore induce or stabilize different conformations of BiP even when ATP hydrolysis does not occur.

GRP94 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) localized glycoprotein with Ca2+ binding and protein chaperoning properties. Using a ribozyme driven by a stress-inducible promoter and targeted against grp94 mRNA, we have generated a cell line deficient in its ability to induce GRP94. The effect of the ribozyme is mediated by the cleavage of the grp94 message just downstream of the initiation codon, and not by an antisense effect, as determined by the level of intact grp94 mRNA. Unexpectedly, this cell line's ability to induce GRP78 is also impaired. Transient overexpression of recombinant human lysosomal hydrolase alpha-L-iduronidase in the ribozyme expressing cells indicates that the secretion ratio of this enzyme is reduced by about 6-fold. Additionally, the ribozyme expressing cells showed increased sensitivity to Ca2+ depletion from ER caused by either A23187 or thapsigargin, an ER-Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor, but not to tunicamycin. These combined results show that the induction of GRP94 may play important roles in ER to nuclear signaling, protein sorting and secretion, and specific protection against Ca2+ depletion stress.

Thapsigargin, a tumour-promoting sesquiterpene lactone, selectively inhibits the Ca(2+)-ATPase responsible for Ca2+ accumulation by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Mobilization of ER-sequestered Ca2+ to the cytosol and to the extracellular fluid subsequently ensues, with concomitant alteration of cellular functions. Thapsigargin was found to serve as a rapid, potent and efficacious inhibitor of amino acid incorporation in cultured mammalian cells. At concentrations mobilizing cell-associated Ca2+ to the extracellular fluid, thapsigargin provoked extensive inhibition of protein synthesis within 10 min. The inhibition in GH3 pituitary cells involved the synthesis of almost all polypeptides, was not associated with increased cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), and was not reversed at high extracellular Ca2+. The transient rise in [Ca2+]i triggered by ionomycin was diminished by thapsigargin. Polysomes failed to accumulate in the presence of the drug, indicative of impaired translational initiation. With longer (1-3 h) exposures to thapsigargin, recovery of translational activity was observed accompanied by increased synthesis of the ER protein glucose-regulated stress protein 78 or immunoglobulin heavy-chain binding protein ('GRP78/BiP') and its mRNA. Such inductions were comparable with those observed previously with Ca2+ ionophores which mobilize the cation from all intracellular sequestered sites. Actin mRNA concentrations declined significantly during such treatments. In HepG2 cells processing and secretion of the glycoprotein alpha 1-antitrypsin were rapidly suppressed by thapsigargin. Ca2+ sequestered specifically by the ER is concluded to be essential for optimal protein synthesis and processing. These rapid effects of thapsigargin on mRNA translation, protein processing and gene expression should be considered when evaluating potential mechanisms by which this tumour promoter influences cellular events.

A group of resident ER proteins have been identified that are proposed to function as molecular chaperones. The best characterized of these is BiP/GRP78, an hsp70 homologue that binds peptides containing hydrophobic residues in vitro and unfolded or unassembled proteins in vivo. However, evidence that mammalian BiP plays a direct role in protein folding remains circumstantial. In this study, we examine how BiP interacts with a particular substrate, immunoglobulin light chain (lambda LC), during its folding. Wild-type hamster BiP and several well-characterized BiP ATPase mutants were used in transient expression experiments. We demonstrate that wild-type lambda LCs showed prolonged association with mutant BiP which inhibited their secretion. Both wild-type and mutant BiP bound only to unfolded and partially folded LCs. The wild-type BiP was released from the incompletely folded LCs, allowing them to fold and be secreted, whereas the mutant BiP was not released. As a result, the LCs that were bound to BiP mutants were unable to undergo complete disulfide bond formation and were retained in the ER. Our experiments suggest that LCs undergo both BiP-dependent and BiP-independent folding steps, demonstrating that both ATP binding and hydrolysis activities of BiP are essential for the completion of LC folding in vivo and reveal that BiP must release before disulfide bond formation can occur in that domain.

We have cloned a cDNA encoding the human 150 kDa oxygen-regulated protein (ORP150) from hypoxia-treated astrocytoma U373 cDNA library. The deduced amino acid sequence of 999 residues contains a signal peptide and an ER retention-like signal at the N- and C-termini, respectively. It has a striking sequence similarity (91% identity) with Chinese hamster 170 kDa glucose-regulated protein (GRP170). The N-terminal half of ORP150 exhibits significant similarity to the ATPase domain of HSP70 family proteins with well-conserved ATP binding motifs. Northern blot analysis revealed that induction of ORP150 in U373 cells was not limited to hypoxia but also observed by 2-deoxyglucose or tunicamycin treatment. Furthermore, tissue specificity of expression of ORP150 was quite similar to that of GRP78. These findings suggest that ORP150 participates in quality control of proteins in the ER in response to diverse environmental stresses.

BiP/GRP78 is a lumenal stress protein of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that interacts with polypeptide folding intermediates transiting the secretory compartment. We have studied the secretion and the stress response in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that overexpress either wild-type immunoglobulin binding protein (BiP) or a BiP deletion molecule (residues 175-201) that can bind peptides and ATP but is defective in ATP hydrolysis and concomitant peptide release. Overexpressed wild-type BiP was localized to the ER and unique vesicles within the nucleus, whereas overexpressed ATPase-defective BiP was localized to the ER and cytoplasmic vesicles but was absent from the nucleus. Compared with wild-type CHO cells, overexpression of ATPase-defective BiP prevented secretion of factor VIII, a coagulation factor that extensively binds BiP in the lumen of the ER. Under these conditions factor VIII was stably associated with the ATPase-defective BiP. In contrast, the secretion of monocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor, a protein that is not detected in association with BiP, was not affected by overexpression of ATPase-defective BiP. These results show that BiP function is not required for secretion of some proteins and suggest that some proteins do not interact with BiP upon transport through the ER. The presence of unfolded protein in the ER induces transcription of BiP and also elicits a general inhibition of protein synthesis. Overexpression of wild-type BiP prevented the stress-mediated transcriptional induction of BiP in response to either calcium ionophore A23187 treatment or tunicamycin treatment. In contrast, overexpression of ATPase-defective BiP did not prevent the stress induction of BiP, showing that the ATPase activity is required to inhibit transcriptional induction. Overexpression of wild-type BiP, but not ATPase-defective BiP, increased survival of cells treated with A23187. The increased survival mediated by overexpressed wild-type BiP correlated with reduced translation inhibition in response to the stress condition. These results indicate that overexpressed BiP alleviated the stress in the ER to prevent BiP transcriptional induction and permit continued translation of cellular mRNAs.

The ATP7A gene encodes a copper-transporting ATPase. Mutations in this gene result in two clinically distinct X-linked inherited disorders: Menkes disease and occipital horn syndrome (OHS). We identified a single exon skipping in the ATP7A transcript in cells from the affected proband, affected cousins and obligate carriers in a family with OHS. Genomic sequencing identified an A-->T transversion at the +3 position in the splice donor site of intron 10 (gtaaagt-->gttaagt) in all affected individuals and the obligate female carriers. This mutation results in the constitutive skipping of exon 10 and creates an in-frame deletion of transmembrane domains 3 and 4 (78 amino acids) in the mature transcript. The exon 10-skipped transcript is present in low amounts as an alternatively spliced product in normal individuals. Immunocytochemical assay shows that these two protein products have different subcellular distributions: the major form is concentrated in the perinuclear Golgi system while the minor form (as the only form in this family with OHS) is co-localized with the endoplasmic reticulum-resident BiP protein (GRP78). These findings indicate that endoplasmic reticulum localization only of a variant ATP7A protein is insufficient to effect normal copper transport.

Recent studies of cellular amyloid precursor protein (APP) metabolism demonstrate a beta-/gamma-secretase pathway resident to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi resulting in intracellular generation of soluble APP (APPsbeta) and Abeta42 peptide. Thus, these intracellular compartments may be key sites of amyloidogenic APP metabolism and Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis. We hypothesized that the ER chaperone immunoglobulin binding protein (BiP/GRP78) binds to and facilitates correct folding of nascent APP. Metabolic labeling and immunoprecipitation of transiently transfected human embryonic kidney 293 cells demonstrated co-precipitation of APP with GRP78, revealing their transient interaction in the ER. Maturation of cellular APP was impaired by this interaction. Furthermore, the levels of APPs, Abeta40, and Abeta42 recovered in conditioned medium were lower compared with cells transfected with APP alone. Co-expression with APP of GRP78 T37G, an ATPase mutant, almost completely blocked cellular APP maturation as well as recovery of APPs, Abeta40, and Abeta42 in conditioned medium. The inhibitory effects of GRP78 and GRP78 T37G on Abeta40 and Abeta42 secretion were magnified by co-expression with the Swedish mutation of APP (K670N/M671L). Collectively, these data suggest a transient and direct interaction of GRP78 with APP in the ER that modulates intracellular APP maturation and processing and may facilitate its correct folding.
