BMP-1-induced GBA1 nuclear accumulation provokes CCN2 mRNA expression via importin-β-mediated nucleocytoplasmic pathway.

ABSTRACT: Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-1 is expressed by odontoblasts in the dentin-pulp complex. Although the functional effects of BMP-1 on the maturation of various preforms of proteins and enzymes involved in initiating mineralization have been widely observed, how BMP-1 affects cellular molecules remains unknown. We performed a comprehensive analysis of BMP-1-altered glycome profiles and subsequent assays to identify the target glycoproteins in human dental pulp cells (hDPCs) by a glycomic approach. In the presence of BMP-1, a lectin microarray analysis and lectin-probed blotting showed that α2,6-sialylation was significantly attenuated in insoluble fractions from hDPCs. Six proteins were identified by a mass spectrometry analysis of α2,6-sialylated glycoproteins purified using a lectin column. Among them, glucosylceramidase (GBA1) was found to accumulate in the nuclei of hDPCs in the presence of BMP-1. Moreover, BMP-1-induced cellular communication network factor (CCN) 2 expression, which is well known as the osteogenesis/chondrogenesis marker, was significantly suppressed in the cells transfected with GBA1 siRNA. Furthermore, importazole, a potent inhibitor of importin-β-mediated nuclear import significantly suppressed BMP-1-induced GBA1 nuclear accumulation and BMP-1-induced CCN2 mRNA expression, respectively. Thus, BMP-1 facilitates the accumulation of GBA1 in the nucleus through the reduction of α2,6-sialic acid, which potentially contributes to the transcriptional regulation of the CCN2 gene via importin-β-mediated nuclear import pathway in hDPCs. Our results offer new insights into the role of the BMP-1-GBA1-CCN2 axis in the development, tissue remodeling, and pathology of dental/craniofacial diseases.

Project description:Porcine parvovirus (PPV) NS1, the major nonstructural protein of this virus, plays an important role in PPV replication. We show, for the first time, that NS1 dynamically shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, although its subcellular localization is predominantly nuclear. NS1 contains two nuclear export signals (NESs) at amino acids 283 to 291 (designated NES2) and amino acids 602 to 608 (designated NES1). NES1 and NES2 are both functional and transferable NESs, and their nuclear export activity is blocked by leptomycin B (LMB), suggesting that the export of NS1 from the nucleus is dependent upon the chromosome region maintenance 1 (CRM1) pathway. Deletion and site-directed mutational analyses showed that NS1 contains a bipartite nuclear localization signal (NLS) at amino acids 256 to 274. Coimmunoprecipitation assays showed that NS1 interacts with importins α5 and α7 through its NLS. The overexpression of CRM1 and importins α5 and α7 significantly promoted PPV replication, whereas the inhibition of CRM1- and importin α/β-mediated transport by specific inhibitors (LMB, importazole, and ivermectin) clearly blocked PPV replication. The mutant viruses with deletions of the NESs or NLS motif of NS1 by using reverse genetics could not be rescued, suggesting that the NESs and NLS are essential for PPV replication. Collectively, these findings suggest that NS1 shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, mediated by its functional NESs and NLS, via the CRM1-dependent nuclear export pathway and the importin α/β-mediated nuclear import pathway, and PPV proliferation was inhibited by blocking NS1 nuclear import or export. IMPORTANCE PPV replicates in the nucleus, and the nuclear envelope is a barrier to its entry into and egress from the nucleus. PPV NS1 is a nucleus-targeting protein that is important for viral DNA replication. Because the NS1 molecule is large (>50 kDa), it cannot pass through the nuclear pore complex by diffusion alone and requires specific transport receptors to permit its nucleocytoplasmic shuttling. In this study, the two functional NESs in the NS1 protein were identified, and their dependence on the CRM1 pathway for nuclear export was demonstrated. The nuclear import of NS1 utilizes importins α5 and α7 in the importin α/β nuclear import pathway.
