lüll Cln6 mutants associated with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis are degraded in a proteasome-dependent manner Oresic K; Mueller B; Tortorella DBiosci Rep 2009[Jun]; 29 (3): 173-81NCLs (neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses), a group of inherited neurodegenerative lysosomal storage diseases that predominantly affect children, are the result of autosomal recessive mutations within one of the nine cln genes. The wild-type cln gene products are composed of membrane and soluble proteins that localize to the lysosome or the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). However, the destiny of the Cln variants has not been fully characterized. To explore a possible link between ER quality control and processing of Cln mutants, we investigated the fate of two NCL-related Cln6 mutants found in patient samples (Cln6(G123D) and Cln6(M241T)) in neuronal-derived human cells. The point mutations are predicted to be in the putative transmembrane domains and most probably generate misfolded membrane proteins that are subjected to ER quality control. Consistent with this paradigm, both mutants underwent rapid proteasome-mediated degradation and complexed with components of the ER extraction apparatus, Derlin-1 and p97. In addition, knockdown of SEL1L [sel-1 suppressor of lin-12-like (Caenorhabditis elegans)], a member of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex involved in ER protein extraction, rescued significant amounts of Cln6(G123D) and Cln6(M241T) polypeptides. The results implicate ER quality control in the instability of the Cln variants that probably contributes to the development of NCL.|*Mutation[MESH]|Amino Acid Substitution[MESH]|Cell Line, Tumor[MESH]|Endoplasmic Reticulum/genetics/metabolism[MESH]|Gene Knockdown Techniques[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Membrane Proteins/genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinoses/genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Proteasome Endopeptidase Complex/genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Proteins/genetics/*metabolism[MESH]|Ubiquitin-Protein Ligases/genetics/*metabolism[MESH] |
