1 Redox homeostasis in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Dmitri Fomenko Redox Biology Center University of Nebraska - Lincoln

2 Endoplasmic reticulum The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is organelle that forms an interconnected network of tubules, vesicles, and cisternae within cells. Rough endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for proteins synthesis. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for synthesize lipids and steroids, metabolize carbohydrates, regulate calcium concentration and drug detoxification. ER is a major place of protein folding in the cell ER retention C-terminal peptides KDEL/HDEL

8 Oxidative protein folding disulfide bonds formation in the ER Ero1 and Erv2 2 R-SH + O 2 R-S-S-R + H 2 O 2

9 Ero1 is ER-localized disulphide-generating oxidase Flavine dependant enzyme Ero1 provides oxidizing equivalents for disulfide bond formation in the ER by relaying the oxidizing power from molecular oxygen to the reduced PDI. Ero1 directly oxidizes the active site of PDI by thioldisulfide exchange reactions with the oxidized shuttle Cys pair, the reduced form of which is reoxidized by the activesite Cys pair.

10 Humans have two Ero1 homologues, Ero1α and Ero1β. Both Ero1 isoforms are transcriptionally upregulated under conditions of ER stress. Ero1α protein is expressed in most cell types, detectable protein levels of Ero1β are found only in several tissues Ero1 activity can be regulated by intramolecular disulphide switches, to prevent cellular hyperoxidation. Grey likely structural cysteines, black - active site or red - regulatory function. The thick orange line at Cys166 indicates the connection to a likely (but unidentified) disulphide partner.

15 The enzyme that catalyzes this process is a multimeric membrane-complex, called Oligosaccharyl transferase(ost). OST3/6- like proteins are membrane linked thiol oxidoreductases characterized by thioredoxin-fold and CxxC redox motifs in the active site.

17 General properties of OST3/6 proteins Homozygous deletion of N33 correlates with metastatic prostate cancer and its allelic deletion is associated with human colorectal and pancreatic cancers. This observation suggests a possible tumor suppressor function of N33. There are two known cases of a natural knockout of N33 in humans which are associated with nonsyndromic mental retardation. Deletion of corresponding genes in yeast system cause ER-stress and strongly affect synthesis of glycosylated transmembrane proteins These proteins behave as strong reductases redox potential is in range mV

21 Proposed roles of Sep15 in the quality control mechanism of protein folding. 1) Sep15 may function as a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase that catalyzes reduction, isomerization, or oxidation of disulfide bonds in misfolded proteins recognized by UGT; 2) Sep15 may be required for recognition of glycoprotein substrates of UGT with incorrectly formed disulfide bonds and may influence the enzymatic activity of UGT towards substrates with incorrectly formed disulfide bonds.

23 Thiol retention and ER processes Many glycoproteins expressed as oligomers and quality control system should monitor folding and oligomerisation status of multimerizing proteins. Thiol retention is quality control system that monitoring the redox state of specific cysteine residues in proteins. This system is also involved in retaining unassembled proteins in the ER until specific cysteines formed intersubunits disulfide bonds. Exact mechanism of thiol retention remain elusive. Thiol retention was discovered in studies of the assembly of complex oligomeric glycoproteins- immunoglobulin M.

26 Shchedrina et al, ARS 2010 SelS is a component of the ER-Associated Protein Degradation (ERAD) system. ERAD is a pathway which protects cells from accumulation of misfolded proteins by transferring these proteins from the ER to cytosol for subsequent ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. SelS was proposed as a mediator in the interaction of p97 ATPase and the ER membrane integral protein Derlin-1 forming a new type of retrotranslocation channel

A cysteine residue within the AGR2 thioredoxin-like domain forms mixed disulfide bonds with MUC2, indicating a direct role for AGR2 in mucin processing. Anterior Gradient family proteins are implicated in the formation of the cement gland and the induction of forebrain fate. The human homologs, hagr2 and hagr3, are proteins associated with estrogen-positive breast tumors. hagr2 has also been implicated in prostate cancer.
