SH3TC2, a protein mutant in Charcot–Marie–Tooth neuropathy, links peripheral nerve myelination to endosomal recycling

Abstract: Patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy and gene targeting in mice revealed an essential role for the SH3TC2 gene in peripheral nerve myelination. SH3TC2 expression is restricted to Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system, and the gene product, SH3TC2, localizes to the perinuclear recycling compartment. Here, we show that SH3TC2 interacts with the small guanosine triphosphatase Rab11, which is known to regulate the recycling of internalized membranes and receptors back to the cell surface.

“…Because myelin comprises a specially organized membrane sheet, membrane trafficking might play an important role in the establishment of this structure. In the peripheral nervous system, an endosomal recycling pathway involved in polarized membrane trafficking has been associated with Schwann cell myelination (Roberts et al, 2010;Stendel et al, 2010). In addition, axonal signaling regulates myelin thickness (Michailov et al, 2004;Newbern and Birchmeier, 2010), and this signaling might affect polarized membrane trafficking in Schwann cells.…”

“…Two groups have shown that SH3TC2 preferentially binds the GTP-bound form of small GTPase Rab11 and promotes recycling of internalized transferrin receptors to the cell surface in HeLa cells [77, 78], supporting a function of SH3TC2 as a novel Rab11 effector in the regulation of endosomal recycling. Furthermore, these groups reported that CMT4C-associated mutations abolish the interaction of SH3TC2 with Rab11, causing SH3TC2 mislocalization from recycling endosomes to the cytosol and impaired transferrin receptor recycling in HeLa and HEK293 cells [77, 78]. These findings provide evidence supporting the potential involvement of endosomal recycling dysfunction in the pathogenesis of CMT4C neuropathy.…”

“…High cholesterol availability is known to be required for myelin membrane growth (Saher et al, 2005). In addition, studies in other CMT neuropathies have emphasized the importance of endocytic pathways in the formation of myelin Roberts et al, 2010;Sidiropoulos et al, 2012;Stendel et al, 2010;Verhoeven et al, 2003), reinforcing a link between NDRG1 function in endocytic trafficking and myelin formation/ maintenance. NDRG1 might also affect oligodendrocyte differentiation, as suggested by the lack of outgrowths and downregulation of Olig2 in Ndrg1-silenced oligodendrocytes.…”
