FK506-Binding Protein 2 Participates in Proinsulin Folding.

ABSTRACT: Apart from chaperoning, disulfide bond formation, and downstream processing, the molecular sequence of proinsulin folding is not completely understood. Proinsulin requires proline isomerization for correct folding. Since FK506-binding protein 2 (FKBP2) is an ER-resident proline isomerase, we hypothesized that FKBP2 contributes to proinsulin folding. We found that FKBP2 co-immunoprecipitated with proinsulin and its chaperone GRP94 and that inhibition of FKBP2 expression increased proinsulin turnover with reduced intracellular proinsulin and insulin levels. This phenotype was accompanied by an increased proinsulin secretion and the formation of proinsulin high-molecular-weight complexes, a sign of proinsulin misfolding. FKBP2 knockout in pancreatic β-cells increased apoptosis without detectable up-regulation of ER stress response genes. Interestingly, FKBP2 mRNA was overexpressed in β-cells from pancreatic islets of T2D patients. Based on molecular modeling and an in vitro enzymatic assay, we suggest that proline at position 28 of the proinsulin B-chain (P28) is the substrate of FKBP2's isomerization activity. We propose that this isomerization step catalyzed by FKBP2 is an essential sequence required for correct proinsulin folding.

Project description:ObjectiveMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous non-coding RNAs that can play a role in the post-transcriptional regulation of mammalian preadipocyte differentiation. However, the precise functional mechanism of its regulation of fat metabolism is not fully understood.MethodsWe identified bta-miR-365-3p, which specifically targets the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of the FK506-binding protein 5 (FKBP5), and verified its mechanisms for regulating expression and involvement in adipogenesis.ResultsIn this study, we found that the overexpression of bta-miR-365-3p significantly decreased the lipid accumulation and triglyceride content in the adipocytes. Compared to inhibiting bta-miR-36 5-3p group, overexpression of bta-miR-365-3p can inhibit the expression of adipocyte differentiation-related genes C/EBPα and PPARγ. The dualluciferase reporter system further validated the targeting relationship between bta-miR-365-3p and FKBP5. FKBP5 mRNA and protein expression were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Overexpression of bta-miR-365-3p significantly down-regulated FKBP5 expression, while inhibition of bta-miR-365-3p showed the opposite, indicating that bta-miR-365-3p negatively regulates FKBP5. Adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin (AMPK/mTOR) signaling pathway is closely related to the regulation of cell growth and is involved in the development of bovine adipocytes. In this study, overexpression of bta-miR-365-3p significantly inhibited mRNA and protein expression of AMPK, mTOR, and SREBP1 genes, while the inhibition of bta-miR-365-3p expression was contrary to these results. Overexpression of FKBP5 significantly upregulated AMPK, mTOR, and SREBP1 gene expression, while inhibition of FKBP5 expression was contrary to the above experimental results.ConclusionIn conclusion, these results indicate that bta-miR-365-3p may be involved in the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway in regulating Yanbian yellow cattle preadipocytes differentiation by targeting the FKBP5 gene.
