- Osteoclasts are multinucleated giant cells that are formed by the fusion of precursor cells. Cell–cell fusion is mediated by membrane protrusion driven by actin reorganization, but the role of membrane mechanics in this process is unknown. Utilizing live-cell imaging, optical tweezers, manipulation of membrane-to-cortex attachment (MCA), and genetic interference, we show that a decrease in plasma membrane (PM) tension is a mechanical prerequisite for osteoclast fusion. Upon RANKL-induced differentiation, ezrin expression in fusion progenitor cells is reduced, resulting in a decrease in MCA-dependent PM tension. A forced elevation of PM tension by reinforcing the MCA conversely suppresses cell–cell fusion. Mechanistically, reduced PM tension leads to membrane protrusive invadosome formation driven by membrane curvature-inducing/sensing BAR proteins, thereby promoting cell–cell fusion. These findings provide insights into the mechanism of cell–cell fusion under the control of membrane mechanics.Rockefeller University Press, May 2025, Journal of Cell Biology, 224(7) (7)Scientific journal

- Abstract Epithelial cells provide cell-cell adhesion that is essential to maintain the integrity of multicellular organisms. Epithelial cell-characterizing proteins, such as epithelial junctional proteins and transcription factors are well defined. However, the role of lipids in epithelial characterization remains poorly understood. Here we show that the phospholipid phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] is enriched in the plasma membrane (PM) of epithelial cells. Epithelial cells lose their characteristics upon depletion of PM PI(4,5)P2, and synthesis of PI(4,5)P2 in the PM results in the development of epithelial-like morphology in osteosarcoma cells. PM localization of PARD3 is impaired by depletion of PM PI(4,5)P2 in epithelial cells, whereas expression of the PM-targeting exocyst-docking region of PARD3 induces osteosarcoma cells to show epithelial-like morphological changes, suggesting that PI(4,5)P2 regulates epithelial characteristics by recruiting PARD3 to the PM. These results indicate that a high level of PM PI(4,5)P2 plays a crucial role in the maintenance of epithelial characteristics.Springer Science and Business Media LLC, Dec. 2022, Nature Communications, 13(1) (1)[Refereed]Scientific journal
- Abstract Angiogenesis is regulated in coordinated fashion by chemical and mechanical cues acting on endothelial cells (ECs). However, the mechanobiological mechanisms of angiogenesis remain unknown. Herein, we demonstrate a crucial role of blood flow-driven intraluminal pressure (IP) in regulating wound angiogenesis. During wound angiogenesis, blood flow-driven IP loading inhibits elongation of injured blood vessels located at sites upstream from blood flow, while downstream injured vessels actively elongate. In downstream injured vessels, F-BAR proteins, TOCA1 and CIP4, localize at leading edge of ECs to promote N-WASP-dependent Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin polymerization and front-rear polarization for vessel elongation. In contrast, IP loading expands upstream injured vessels and stretches ECs, preventing leading edge localization of TOCA1 and CIP4 to inhibit directed EC migration and vessel elongation. These data indicate that the TOCA family of F-BAR proteins are key actin regulatory proteins required for directed EC migration and sense mechanical cell stretching to regulate wound angiogenesis.Springer Science and Business Media LLC, Dec. 2022, Nature Communications, 13(1) (1)[Refereed]Scientific journal
- Abstract Malignancy is associated with changes in cell mechanics that contribute to extensive cell deformation required for metastatic dissemination. We hypothesized that the cell-intrinsic physical factors that maintain epithelial cell mechanics could function as tumor suppressors. Here we show, using optical tweezers, genetic interference, mechanical perturbations, and in vivo studies, that epithelial cells maintain higher plasma membrane (PM) tension than their metastatic counterparts and that high PM tension potently inhibits cancer cell migration and invasion by counteracting membrane curvature sensing/generating BAR family proteins. This tensional homeostasis is achieved by membrane-to-cortex attachment (MCA) regulated by ERM proteins, whose disruption spontaneously transforms epithelial cells into a mesenchymal migratory phenotype powered by BAR proteins. Consistently, the forced expression of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-inducing transcription factors results in decreased PM tension. In metastatic cells, increasing PM tension by manipulating MCA is sufficient to suppress both mesenchymal and amoeboid 3D migration, tumor invasion, and metastasis by compromising membrane-mediated mechanosignaling by BAR proteins, thereby uncovering a previously undescribed mechanical tumor suppressor mechanism.Springer Science and Business Media LLC, Oct. 2021, Nature Communications, 12(1) (1)[Refereed]Scientific journal
- At the initial stage of carcinogenesis, cell competition often occurs between newly emerging transformed cells and the neighboring normal cells, leading to the elimination of transformed cells from the epithelial layer. For instance, when RasV12-transformed cells are surrounded by normal cells, RasV12 cells are apically extruded from the epithelium. However, the underlying mechanisms of this tumor-suppressive process still remain enigmatic. We first show by electron microscopic analysis that characteristic finger-like membrane protrusions are projected from both normal and RasV12 cells at their interface. In addition, FBP17, a member of the F-BAR proteins, accumulates in RasV12 cells, as well as surrounding normal cells, which plays a positive role in the formation of finger-like protrusions and apical elimination of RasV12 cells. Furthermore, cdc42 acts upstream of these processes. These results suggest that the cdc42/FBP17 pathway is a crucial trigger of cell competition, inducing "protrusion to protrusion response" between normal and RasV12-transformed cells.Sep. 2021, iScience, 24(9) (9), 102994 - 102994, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal
- We characterized the size, distribution, and fluidity of microdomains in a lipid bilayer containing phosphatidylinositol (PI) and revealed their roles during the two-dimensional assembly of a membrane deformation protein (FBP17). The morphology of the supported lipid bilayer (SLB) consisting of PI and phosphatidylcholine (PC) on a mica substrate was observed with atomic force microscope (AFM). Single particle tracking (SPT) was performed for the PI+PC-SLB on the mica substrate by using the diagonal illumination setup. The AFM topography showed that PI-derived submicron domains existed in the PI+PC-SLB. The spatiotemporal dependence of the lateral lipid diffusion obtained by SPT showed that the microdomain had lower fluidity than the surrounding region and worked as the obstacles for the lipid diffusion. We observed the two-dimensional assembly of FBP17, which is one of F-BAR family proteins included in endocytosis processes and has the function generating lipid bilayer tubules in vitro. At the initial stage of the FBP17 assembly, the PI-derived microdomain worked as a scaffold for the FBP17 adsorption, and the fluid surrounding region supplied FBP17 to grow the FBP17 domain via the lateral molecular diffusion. This study demonstrated an example clearly revealing the roles of two lipid microregions during the protein reaction on a lipid bilayer.May 2021, Membranes, 11(5) (5), 339, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Ubiquitinated membrane proteins such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are delivered to early endosomes and then sorted to lysosomes via multivesicular bodies (MVBs) for degradation. The regulatory mechanism underlying formation of intralumenal vesicles en route to generation of MVBs is not fully understood. In this study, we found that SH3YL1, a phosphoinositide-binding protein, had a vesicular localization pattern overlapping with internalized EGF in endosomes in the degradative pathway. Deficiency of SH3YL1 prevents EGF trafficking from early to late endosomes and inhibits degradation of EGFR. Moreover, we show that SH3YL1 mediates EGFR sorting into MVBs in a manner dependent on its carboxy-terminal SH3 domain, which is necessary for the interaction with an ESCRT-I component, Vps37B. Taken together, our observations reveal an indispensable role of SH3YL1 in MVB-sorting and EGFR degradation mediated by ESCRT complexes.Corresponding, The Company of Biologists, Oct. 2019, Journal of Cell Science[Refereed]Scientific journal
- Abstract Tension in cell membranes is closely related to various cellular events, including cell movement and morphogenesis. Therefore, modulation of membrane tension can be a new approach for manipulating cellular events. Here, we show that an amphipathic peptide derived from the influenza M2 protein (M2[45–62]) yields lamellipodia at multiple sites in the cell. Effect of M2[45–62] on cell membrane tension was evaluated by optical tweezer. The membrane tension sensor protein FBP17 was involved in M2[45–62]-driven lamellipodium formation. Lysine-to-arginine substitution in M2[45–62] further enhanced its activity of lamellipodium formation. M2[45–62] had an ability to reduce cell motility, evaluated by scratch wound migration and transwell migration assays. An increase in neurite outgrowth was also observed after treatment with M2[45–62]. The above results suggest the potential of M2[45–62] to modulate cell movement and morphology by modulating cell membrane tension.Springer Science and Business Media LLC, Jun. 2019, Communications Biology, 2(1) (1)[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Reversible interactions between cytosolic proteins and membrane lipids such as phosphoinositides play important roles in membrane morphogenesis driven by actin polymerization. In this paper, we identify a novel lipid-binding module, which we call the SYLF domain (after the SH3YL1, Ysc84p/Lsb4p, Lsb3p, and plant FYVE proteins that contain it), that is highly conserved from bacteria to mammals. SH3YL1 (SH3 domain containing Ysc84-like 1) strongly bound to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) and several D5-phosphorylated phosphoinositides through its SYLF domain and was localized to circular dorsal ruffles induced by platelet-derived growth factor stimulation. Interestingly, SHIP2 (the PI(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase, src-homology 2–containing inositol-5-phosphatase 2) was identified as a binding partner of SH3YL1, and knockdown of these proteins significantly suppressed dorsal ruffle formation. Phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PI(3,4)P2), which is mainly synthesized from PI(3,4,5)P3 by the action of SHIP2, was enriched in dorsal ruffles, and PI(3,4)P2 synthesis strongly correlated with formation of the circular membrane structure. These results provide new insight into the molecular mechanism of dorsal ruffle formation and its regulation by phosphoinositide metabolism.Corresponding, Rockefeller University Press, May 2011, Journal of Cell Biology, 193(5) (5), 901 - 916[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Abstract The serine/threonine kinase Akt plays a central role in cell survival and proliferation. Its activation is linked to tumorigenesis in several human cancers. Although many Akt substrates have been elucidated, the Akt-binding proteins that regulate Akt function remain unclear. We report herein having identified casein kinase 2–interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) as an Akt pleckstrin homology (PH) domain-binding protein with Akt inhibitory function. CKIP-1 formed a complex with each Akt isoform (Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3) via its NH2 terminus. Dimerization of CKIP-1 via its leucine zipper (LZ) motif at the COOH terminus was found to be associated with Akt inactivation because deletion of the LZ motif eliminated Akt inhibitory function, although it could still bind to Akt. Expression of the NH2 terminus–deleted CKIP-1 mutant containing the LZ motif, but lacking Akt-binding ability, induced Akt phosphorylation and activation by sequestering the ability of endogenous CKIP-1 to bind to Akt. Stable CKIP-1 expression caused Akt inactivation and cell growth inhibition in vitro. In addition, the growth of stable CKIP-1 transfectants xenografted into nude mice was slower than that of mock transfectants. These results indicate that CKIP-1, a novel Akt PH domain-interacting protein, would be a candidate of tumor suppressor with an Akt inhibitory function.

- Regulation of endocytosis by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and ENTH proteins.Clathrin-mediated endocytosis starts by a recruitment of endocytic proteins to the plasma membrane to induce invagination of lipid bilayer and subsequent vesicule formation. The recruitment of these components requires PtdIns(4,5)P2, a phosphoinositide on the plasma membrane. Although it is well known that the synthesis as well as the disruption of this lipid is important, recent studies have revealed the indispensable roles of direct interaction between PtdIns(4,5)P2 and the endocytic machinery. The ENTH domain is a newly found PtdIns(4,5)P2 binding unit conserved among endocytic proteins like epsins, AP180, and the Hip1/Sla2 family. This review focuses on the essential roles of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and its specific binding partner, the ENTH domain, in clathrin-mediated endocytosis.2004, Current topics in microbiology and immunology, 282, 31 - 47, English, International magazine[Refereed][Invited]Scientific journal

- Endocytic proteins such as epsin, AP180, and Hip1R (Sla2p) share a conserved modular region termed the epsin NH 2 -terminal homology (ENTH) domain, which plays a crucial role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis through an unknown target. Here, we demonstrate a strong affinity of the ENTH domain for phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P 2 ]. With nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of the epsin ENTH domain, we determined that a cleft formed with positively charged residues contributed to phosphoinositide binding. Overexpression of a mutant, epsin Lys 76 → Ala 76 , with an ENTH domain defective in phosphoinositide binding, blocked epidermal growth factor internalization in COS-7 cells. Thus, interaction between the ENTH domain and PtdIns(4,5)P 2 is essential for endocytosis mediated by clathrin-coated pits.Lead, American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Feb. 2001, Science, 291(5506) (5506), 1047 - 1051[Refereed]Scientific journal

- The cytoskeleton and the plasma membrane are two major components that define cellular shape, and control cell movement. The actin cytoskeleton lies just beneath the plasma membrane suggesting regulatory mechanisms based upon direct interactions between them. In fact, almost all of actin regulating proteins are known to bind phospholipids, especially phosphoinositides, to enhance or to suppress their activity. Such examples include the "classical" actin regulating proteins (profilin, gelsolin etc.) as well as recently unveiled ERM proteins and WASP families. In addition, interference of interaction between phosphoinositide and those proteins by a specific antibody or a phosphoinositide-binding peptide results in an inhibition of actin polymerization in response to extracellular stimuli. Furthermore, disturbance of intracellular phosphoinositide content by overexpression of phosphoinositide kinases or phosphatases affects the structure of actin cytoskeleton. These data clearly indicate the close relationship between phosphoinositide and actin cytoskeleton, and suggest the existence of the regulatory mechanism of cytoskeleton by phosphoinositide metabolizing enzymes.

- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Kobe University, 01 Apr. 2019 - 31 Mar. 2022A feedback mechanism between the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton underneath during cell migrationIn cell migration, the cytoskeleton exerts a driving force by stretching the plasma membrane by pushing it from the inside. A feedback mechanism that regulates the retraction of the extended plasma membrane is vital for efficient cell movement, but its molecular detail is unknown. In this study, we focused on a group of proteins that control and sense the tension applied to the plasma membrane with the activity of regulating the actin cytoskeleton. Our results reveal a part of the feedback mechanism between the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton underneath during cell migration.

We aim to elucidate the molecular mechanism of mechano-signaling that controls "cell polarity" which plays an essential role in cell morphogenesis and physiological functions. By monitoring the intracellular localizations of inositol phospholipids that regulate the actin cytoskeleton, we found a characteristic localization of these lipids associated with epithelial cell carcinogenesis. Specifically, PI (3,4,5) P3, a PI3-kinase product, increased remarkably on the basal side of the plasma membrane, while PI (4,5) P2 was distributed all around the cancer cell membrane that deviated from the apical surface. Our findings also suggest that the tumor suppressor gene PTEN may play a role in the invasive phenomenon associated with epithelial cell carcinogenesis.Competitive research funding

The crystal structure of SYLF domain of thermophilic bacteria Thermotoga maritima was determined at 2.2 angstrom resolution Based on the structure, a predicted loop region of human SYLF domain was deleted. The modified human SYLF domain could be crystallized and structure was determined at 2.0 angstrom resolution. SYLF domain adopts a novel fold and the basic surface patches were expected to interact with membrane.

Phosphoinositide-binding proteins, FBP17, PSTPIP2, SH3YL1 and ARAP1 recognize and bind membrane curvature, resulting in membrane deformation, such as coated pits and vesiculation of membrane. PI(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase SKIP binds GRP78 in endoplasmic reticulum under resting condition. But in response to insulin, it moves to membranes where it associates with Pak1 and hydrolyses PI(3,4,5)P3 spatio-temporaly around insulin receptors. Sac1 PI4P 4-phosphatase controls the PI4P concentration in Golgi, which is involved in cell adhesion and tumor metastasis.Thus, decrease in PI4P in Golgi prevents the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells.Competitive research funding
- 日本学術振興会, 科学研究費助成事業 新学術領域研究(研究領域提案型), 新学術領域研究(研究領域提案型), 神戸大学, 01 Apr. 2012 - 31 Mar. 2015Ferチロシンキナーゼの天然変性領域を介した細胞膜結合による活性化機構チロシンキナーゼは、細胞外からの情報分子を細胞内シグナルへと変換する過程、いわゆる細胞内情報伝達系における最も初期の段階で機能する酵素である。細胞膜貫通型チロシンキナーゼは細胞外の液性因子の受容体タンパク質として、膜タンパク質であるSrc型チロシンキナーゼは細胞外マトリックスへの細胞接着によって活性化されることで、それぞれ細胞の増殖や運動を司る。医療分野においてもさまざまなチロシンキナーゼ阻害薬が臨床応用されており、BCR-ABLやEGF受容体などを特異的に阻害する分子標的治療薬が注目を集めている。本研究では、細胞質型チロシンキナーゼFerに存在する特定の立体構造を取らない「天然変性」領域(以下FX tail)に着目し、細胞膜との直接的な相互作用による活性化機序の解明を目的としている。本年度も引き続き、FXtailの膜結合能に関する解析を行った。その結果、FXbodyを含むFXドメイン全体に比べて、FXtail領域のみからなるコンストラクトは強い膜結合能を示すことが分かった。また、FXtailのカルボキシル末端側に存在するSH2ドメインを含めたFX+SH2コンストラクトもFXドメインに比べて高い膜結合能を持つことが明らかとなった。この結果は、FXtailがFXbodyと相互作用することで通常は閉じたコンフォメーションを取っており、膜結合に伴って開いた形に構造変化を起こす可能性を示唆している。架橋剤を用いた分子間架橋実験により、FXドメインはリポソーム存在下においてのみ高分子量の多量体を形成していることを示唆するデータも得られた。以上の結果は、チロシンキナーゼFerが生体膜との結合によって活性化するメカニズムに関する有用な洞察を与えるものと考えられる。

In vitro, SH3YL1 not only bound to liposomes, but also mediated interactions between liposomes that it resides, promoting aggregation of membrane vesicles. This study also succeeded in obtaining a knowledge about the positively-charged residues in the SYLF domain that participate in lipid-binding, therefore will provide a novel molecular basis of endocytosis.Competitive research funding
- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Research Activity Start-up, Grant-in-Aid for Research Activity Start-up, The Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, 2009 - 2010We analyzed the interaction between IRBIT/Long-IRBIT and PIP kinase family. IRBIT specifically bound to PIPKIα in mouse brain and the interaction was direct. On the contrary, Long-IRBIT did not interacted with PIPKI. The interaction between IRBIT and PIPKIα was dependent on the phosphorylation sites of IRBIT and the catalytic amino acid of PIPKIα. Furthermore, in vitro lipid kinase assay suggested the possibility that IRBIT suppresses the activity of PIPKIα.

- Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Creative Scientific Research, Grant-in-Aid for Creative Scientific Research, 2006 - 2010We developed a new method to quantify and visualize phosphoinositides by the use of Q-dot labeled PH domains which recognize phosphoinositides with high affinity and specificity. By this method, three different phosphoinositides were quantified and visualized simultaneously. We found that FBP17 and CIP4 proteins have F-Bar domains that bind phosphoinositides and deform membranes. F-Bar domain forms a polymerized filament and changes plasma membrane to tube-like structure, resulting in the formation of invaginated pits. We also found a new phosphoinositide binding domain, SYLF domain in SH3YL1, which was involved in the formation of macropinocytosis.

- 日本学術振興会, 科学研究費助成事業 特定領域研究, 特定領域研究, 2006 - 2007エンドサイトーシスにおけるF-BARドメインの役割1.前年度までに明らかにした、FBP17のF-BARドメイン内における点突然変異L7E、F11EおよびH17Dについて、COS7細胞内への過剰発現実験を行った。野生型のFBP17タンパク質の過剰発現では、細胞の陥入によるチューブ状膜構造の形成が誘起されたのに対し、いずれの変異体もこれらの膜変形活性を失っていた。これは前年度に明らかにしたin vitroでの膜変形アッセイの結果を支持するものであり、FBP17のF-BARドメイン内においてリン脂質結合と膜変形それぞれに関与するアミノ酸の存在を示唆するものである。 2.前年度に確立したBARドメインとF-BARドメインの同一膜チューブ上への局在について、さらに多くのタンパク質を用いて検討を加えた。その結果、まずF-BARドメインを持つタンパク質については少なくとも(1)FBP17/CIP4サブファミリー(2)Syndapinサブファミリー、(3)PSTPIPサブファミリーの3つのグループが存在し、これらはCOS7細胞内での共発現によって誘導されるチューブ上において別個の局在を示すことが明らかとなった。さらにBARドメインタンパク質との詳細な局在比較から、意外なことにAmphiphysin (BAR)とPSTPIP(F-BAR)が高度に共局在することが明らかとなった。これらの結果は、同じF-BARドメインファミリー内においても、エンドサイトーシスのそれぞれのステップで異なる細胞膜の曲率を認識する、もしくは作り出すサブグループに分業化されることを示唆している。またF-BARファミリーとBARファミリーの間でも共通の膜曲率を認識するサブグループが在し、これらが特定の膜変形ステップにおいて協調的に作用すると考えられた。
- 日本学術振興会, 科学研究費助成事業 若手研究(B), 若手研究(B), 2006 - 2007F-BARドメインタンパクによる細胞膜の形状制御機構本年度はF-BAR/EFCドメインを持つチロシンキナーゼサブファミリーFerのアクチン骨格制御における役割を解析した。COS7細胞内にGFP-Ferを発現させるとlamellipodia構造を誘起し、この構造を優性不活性型Racの共発現によって抑制された。チロシンキナーゼ活性を持たないFer D742Rや自己リン酸化部位の変異体であるFer Y714Fではこのような現象は観察されなかった。興味深いことに、F-BAR/EFCドメインを欠損した変異体(Fer・F-BAR)においてもlamellipodia形成を誘起することは出来なかった。さらに、COS7細胞内にGFP-FerおよびMycタグを付加したCortactin(F-アクチン重合タンパク質)およびVav2(RacGEF)を共発現したところ、Ferのチロシンキナーゼ活性依存的なチロシンリン酸化が認められた。また、上述のようなGFP-Ferの過剰発現によって誘起されたlamellipodiaには、GFP-Ferと内在性Cortactinのリン酸化部位に対する特異的抗体(抗pTyr421)のシグナルが共局在することが観察された。 これらの結果はFerチロシンキナーゼがF-BARドメインを介したリン脂質との相互作用によって細胞膜に局在し、その形状を制御すると同時に(1)Cortactinのチロシンリン酸化によるRacの活性化、(2)Vav2のリン酸化によるRacの活性化を引き起こすことによってlamellipodia形成を誘導することを示唆している。
- 日本学術振興会, 科学研究費助成事業 特定領域研究, 特定領域研究, 東京大学, 2002 - 2002細胞膜受容体のエンドサイトーシスによる細胞増殖制御機構の解明(1)AP180のENTHドメインがPI(4,5)P_2に最も強く結合することを確認した。その後、epsinにおいて脂質結合に必須である63番Arg、76番Lysにそれぞれ相当する各残基、66番Arg、77番LysをAlaに置換すると、PI(4,5)P2結合能を失った。次に、AP180、CALM及びHip1Rの全長タンパクをGFP融合タンパクとしてCOS7細胞内に発現すると、クラスリンと共局在する小胞状の構造が観察された。中でもHip1Rを含む小胞は、細胞膜直下においてアクチン繊維束に沿って分布することから、エンドサイトーシスとアクチン細胞骨格を結ぶキータンパクである可能性が示唆された。 (2)Epsinファミリーに属する新規タンパクKIAA0171の機能解析を行った。まず、ENTHドメインに対する各イノシトールリン脂質との結合アッセイを行ったところ、PI(4,5)P2に最も強く結合した。GFP融合タンパクをCOS7細胞内に発現したところ、その細胞内局在はクラスリン、およびTGN輸送に関与するアダプタータンパク、AP-1と一致し、その一部はMVB (multi-vesicular body)構造の周縁部に沿って局在することも観察された。次に、さまざまな変異型コンストラクトをGFP融合タンパクとしてCOS7細胞内に発現し、その細胞内局在を検討した。ENTHドメインを欠損すると、KIAA0171のTGN周辺への局在は観察されず、細胞質中に分散する小胞状の局在を示した。脂質結合に必須の67番ArgをAlaに置換した変異体も同様の異常な局在パターンを示した。逆に、ENTHドメインのアミノ末端にミリスチン酸化シグナルを付加した膜結合型変異体ではTGN周辺への集積が促進された。さらに驚くべきことには、ENTHドメインのみをGFP融合タンパクとして発現させると単独でTGNに局在できることが観察され、その局在は67番Arg変異型ENTHドメインでは観察されなかった。

The directed migration of cells is one of fundamental phenomena of life, including migration toward inflammatory sites, and invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. We found WASP and WAVE proteins which are related to cytoskeleton reorganization and cell migration. All these proteins have VCA regions at C-terminal area in which V region binds actin and CA region binds Arp2/3 complex. As a result, these proteins nucleate actin filaments and enhance actin polymerization. On the other hand, at N-terminal area, there are regions to which regulatory molecules bind. N-WASP binds several molecules such as WIP, WISH, Cdc42 and PIP2, and WAVE binds IRSp53, followed by the exposure of VCA region of these proteins. Consequently, these proteins bind to Arp2/3 complex and polymerize actin filaments. Finally, N-WASP which is located downstream of Cdc42 induces filopodia formation. WAVE which is located downstream of Rac induces lamellipodia formation. These proteins are present at the leading edge of moving cells and generate driving force.
