The ligand-dependent degradation of activated tyrosine kinase receptors provides a means by which mitogenic signalling can be attenuated. In many cell types the ligand-dependent degradation of the tyrosine kinase receptor Met is completely dependent on the activity of the 26S proteasome (Jeffers et al., 1997b). We now show that degradation also requires trafficking to late endosomal compartments and the activity of acid dependent proteases as determined by the effects of a dominant negative form of dynamin (K44A) and a vacuolar-ATPase inhibitor, concanamycin. We show that in the presence of the proteasome inhibitor lactacystin, Met fails to redistribute from the plasma membrane to intracellular compartments. This observation is most consistent with the interpretation that proteasome activity is required for Met internalization and only indirectly for its degradation.

Dynamin, a high-molecular-weight GTPase, plays a critical role in vesicle formation at the plasma membrane during endocytosis in animal cells. Here we report the identification of a new dynamin homolog in Arabidopsis named Arabidopsis dynamin-like 6 (ADL6). ADL6 is quite similar to dynamin I in its structural organization: a conserved GTPase domain at the N terminus, a pleckstrin homology domain at the center, and a Pro-rich motif at the C terminus. In the cell, a majority of ADL6 is associated with membranes. Immunohistochemistry and in vivo targeting experiments revealed that ADL6 is localized to the Golgi apparatus. Expression of the dominant negative mutant ADL6[K51E] in Arabidopsis protoplasts inhibited trafficking of cargo proteins destined for the lytic vacuole and caused them to accumulate at the trans-Golgi network. In contrast, expression of ADL6[K51E] did not affect trafficking of a cargo protein, H(+)-ATPase:green fluorescent protein, destined for the plasma membrane. These results suggest that ADL6 is involved in vesicle formation for vacuolar trafficking at the trans-Golgi network but not for trafficking to the plasma membrane in plant cells.

Dynamin is a large molecular weight GTPase. Amongst other biological processes, it is involved in clathrin-dependent endocytosis. It can self-assemble or assemble on other macromolecular structures that result in an increase in its GTPase activity. Its role in endocytosis has been variously attributed to being a force-generating enzyme or a signalling protein. Here we review evidence for the oligomeric state of dynamin at high and low ionic strength conditions. We also review work on the elementary processes of the dynamin GTPase at high ionic strength and compare these to the ATPase of the force-generating protein myosin and the GTPase of the signalling protein Ras. New data on the interaction of dynamin with a fluorescent derivative of GTPgammaS are also presented. The possible mechanism by which assembly of dynamin leads to an increase in its GTPase activity is discussed.

Clathrin-dependent endocytosis of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in response to dopamine regulates its catalytic activity in intact cells. Because fission of clathrin-coated pits requires dynamin, we examined the mechanisms by which dopamine receptor signals promote dynamin-2 recruitment and assembly at the site of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase endocytosis. Western blotting revealed that dopamine increased the association of dynamin-2 with the plasma membrane and with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Dopamine inhibited Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in OK cells and in those overexpressing wild type dynamin-2 but not in cells expressing a dominant-negative mutant. Dephosphorylation of dynamin is important for its assembly. Dopamine increased protein phosphatase 2A activity and dephosphorylated dynamin-2. In cells expressing a dominant-negative mutant of protein phosphatase 2A, dopamine failed to dephosphorylate dynamin-2 and to reduce Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. Dynamin-2 is phosphorylated at Ser(848), and expression of the S848A mutant significantly blocked the inhibitory effect of dopamine. These results demonstrate a distinct signaling network originating from the dopamine receptor that regulates the state of dynamin-2 phosphorylation and that promotes its location (by interaction with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) at the site of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase endocytosis.

A novel protein with ATPase activity was purified from the cytoplasmic extracts of maize pollen by acetone precipitation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by DEAE-Sephadex A(50) and Mono S ion-exchange chromatography. The molecular weight was about 28 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE and the isoelectric point was pH 8.3 by IEF-PAGE. Western blotting analysis showed the 28 kD protein had no specific immuno-reactions with the anti-kinesin monoclonal or the anti-dynamin polyclonal antibodies. The maximum ultraviolet absorbance was at 278 nm, CD spectrum analysis showed the that 28 kD protein with the feature of a globulin. Pharmacological studies indicated that the enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by Na(3)VO(4) but insensitive to NEM. It was inhibited about 50% by NaF. Oligomycin, KNO(3) and ouabain had no effects on its ATPase activity.

By screening for Drosophila mutants exhibiting aberrant bride of sevenless (Boss) staining patterns on eye imaginal disc epithelia, we have recovered a point mutation in Hsc70-4, the closest homologue to bovine clathrin uncoating ATPase. Although the mutant allele was lethal, analysis of mutant clones generated by FLP/FRT recombination demonstrated that the Sevenless-mediated internalization of Boss was blocked in mutant Hsc70-4 eye disc epithelial cells. Endocytosis of other probes was also greatly inhibited in larval Garland cells. Immunostaining and EM analysis of the mutant cells revealed disruptions in the organization of endosomal/lysosomal compartments, including a substantial reduction in the number of clathrin-coated structures in Garland cells. The Hsc70-4 mutation also interacted genetically with a dominant-negative mutant of dynamin, a gene required for the budding of clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). Consistent with these phenotypes, recombinant mutant Hsc70 proteins exhibited diminished clathrin uncoating activity in vitro. Together, these data provide genetic support for the long-suspected role of Hsc70 in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, at least in part by inhibiting the uncoating of CCVs.

The Menkes disease gene encodes a P-type transmembrane ATPase (ATP7A) that translocates cytosolic copper ions across intracellular membranes of compartments along the secretory pathway. ATP7A moves from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the cell surface in response to exogenously added copper ions and recycles back to the TGN upon copper removal. The protein contains a C-terminal di-leucine motif necessary for internalization from the cell surface. In this study we show that ATP7A is internalized by a novel pathway that is independent of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Expression of dominant-negative mutants of the dynamin-I, dynamin-II and Eps15 proteins that block clathrin-dependent endocytosis of the transferrin receptor do not inhibit internalization of endogenous ATP7A, or an ATP7A reporter molecule (CD8-MCF1). Similarly, inhibitors of caveolae-mediated uptake do not affect ATP7A internalization whilst preventing uptake of PODIPY-ganglioside GM(1), a caveolae marker. In contrast, expression of a constitutively active mutant of the Rac1 GTPase inhibits plasma membrane internalization of both the ATP7A and transferrin receptor transmembrane proteins. These findings define a novel route required for ATP7A internalization and delivery to endosomes.

The human X-linked recessive copper deficiency disorder, Menkes disease, is caused by mutations in the ATP7A (MNK) gene, which encodes a transmembrane copper-transporting P-type ATPase (MNK). The MNK protein is localised to the Golgi apparatus and relocalises to the plasma membrane when copper levels are elevated. Previous studies have identified a C-terminal di-leucine endocytic motif (L1487L1488) in MNK, thought to direct it into the clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway. To determine whether MNK is internalised via clathrin-dependent endocytosis, this pathway was blocked in MNK-overexpressing HeLa cells by the transient expression of dominant negative dynamin and Eps15 mutants. MNK internalisation was not inhibited in such cells. MNK internalisation was inhibited in cells treated with hypertonic sucrose that not only blocked clathrin-mediated endocytosis but also fluid-phase endocytosis. These studies, together with earlier studies on the requirement for L1487L1488, suggest that MNK can utilise both clathrin-dependent and clathrin-independent endocytosis in HeLa cells.

A novel paralytic mutant, nubian, was identified in a behavioral screen for conditional temperature-sensitive seizure mutants in Drosophila melanogaster. nubian mutants display reduced lifespan, abnormal motor behavior, altered synaptic structure, and defective neurotransmitter release. The nubian mutant disrupts phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), an enzyme required for ATP generation in the terminal stage of the glycolytic pathway. Consistent with altered ATP generation in nubian animals, brain extracts show a threefold reduction in resting ATP levels compared with controls. Microarray analysis of nubian mutants reveals altered transcription of genes implicated in glucose and lipid metabolism. Disruption of ATP generation in nubian animals is accompanied by temperature-dependent defects in neuronal activity, with initial seizure activity, followed by an activity-dependent loss of synaptic transmission. nubian mutants also display structural defects at the synapse, with larger varicosity size but normal varicosity number, indicating that these synaptic parameters are regulated independently. Both exocytotic (NSF) and endocytotic (dynamin) ATPase/GTPase activity are required for normal synaptic transmission. Biochemical and physiological analyses indicate that synaptic defects in nubian animals are secondary to defective endocytosis, suggesting that endocytotic pathways may be generally more sensitive to altered ATP levels than those used for exocytosis. Alterations in ATP metabolism likely disrupt similar pathways in humans, because PGK deficiency is associated with mental retardation, seizures, and exercise intolerance. Given the behavioral similarities between disruptions of PGK function in Drosophila and humans, the analysis of nubian animals may reveal conserved neuronal responses associated with altered ATP generation within the brain.

Dynamin, the large guanosine triphosphatase, is generally considered to have a key role in deforming membranes to create tubules or vesicles. Dynamin, particularly dynamin2 isoforms, also are localized with actin filaments, often at locations where cellular membranes undergo remodeling. Perturbing dynamin function interferes with endocytic traffic and actin function. Thus, dynamin may regulate actin filaments coordinately with its activities that remodel membranes. This review will highlight recent observations that provide clues to mechanisms whereby dynamin might coordinate membrane remodeling and actin filament dynamics during endocytic traffic, cell morphogenesis and cell migration.
