Myosin IIA is involved in the endocytosis of CXCR4 induced by SDF-1α

Abstract: Endocytosis of chemokine receptors regulates signal transduction initiated by chemokines, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this process are not fully defined. In this work, we assessed the involvement of the motor protein nonmuscle myosin heavy chain IIA (MIIA) in the endocytosis of CXCR4 induced by SDF-1α (also known as CXCL12) in T lymphocytes. Overexpression of the C-terminal half of MIIA inhibited the ligand-induced endocytosis of CXCR4, but not that of transferrin receptor. Targeting MIIA either by… Show more

“…Therefore, syntenin-1 binding might compete with MBS, shifting the balance towards Racinduced actin polymerization, rather than Rho-mediated contraction. Myosin function in lymphocytes is not restricted to regulation of cell contractility during migration, but also regulates immune synapse maturation (Ilani et al, 2009), cytotoxicity (Andzelm et al, 2007) and chemokine receptor internalization (Rey et al, 2007). MLC phosphorylation is detected at the IS (Ilani et al, 2009) and at the leading edge of migrating polarized lymphocytes (Vicente-Manzanares et al, 2002), both sites of active Rac-induced actin polymerization.…”

“…GRKs phosphorylate Ser/Thr residues of intracellular loops and/or the C-tail of the agonist-activated receptor, a process that enhances the affinity of the receptor for the arrestins. The nonvisual β-arrestin1 and -2 are reported to interact with intracellular domains of CXCR4 and to regulate receptor desensitization and internalization (8)(9)(10)(11). Seven GRKs are known, and among them, the 4 widely expressed members (GRK2, -3, -5, and -6) are supposed to regulate most GPCRs with overlapping receptor specificities (12,13).…”

“…Internalization of CXCR4 after SDF-1 treatment involves interaction with the proteins ferritin (19), 73-kDa heat shock cognate protein (Hsc73) (20), plectin (10) and Myosin IIA (21). A recent study found several proteins, including ferritin (19) and Hsc73 (20), in combination with CXCR4 after internalization of CXCR4.…”

“…Plectin is required for CXCR4 internalization, is found in intracellular vesicles with CXCR4 and is required for ERK1/2 signaling (10). Myosin IIA is required for SDF-1-induced endocytosis of CXCR4 (21).…”
