JAB1 regulates CPNE1-related differentiation via direct binding to CPNE1 in HiB5 hippocampal progenitor cells

초록

Copine1 (CPNE1), has tandem C2 domains and an A domain. We previously demonstrated that CPNE1 directly induces neuronal differentiation via Protein kinase B (AKT) phosphorylation in the hippocampal progenitor cell line, HiB5. To better understand its cellular function, we carried out a yeast two-hybrid screening to find CPNE1 binding partners. Among the identified proteins, Jun activation domain binding protein 1 (JAB1) appears to directly interact with CPNE1. Between CPNE1 and JAB1, the physical interaction was confirmed in vitro and in vivo. In addition the specific binding regions of CPNE1 and JAB1 was confirmed with truncated mutant assay. Furthermore, our results also demonstrate that AKT phosphorylation and expression of the neuronal marker protein are increased when JAB1 is overexpressed in CPNE1 high expressed HiB5 cells. Moreover, overexpression of both CPNE1 and JAB1 in HiB5 cells effectively increased neurite outgrowth. Collectively, our findings suggest that JAB1 activates the neuronal differentiation ability of CPNE1 through the binding of C2A domain in CPNE1 with MPN domain in JAB1. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.
