By clipping off the lipid anchor, YopT releases Rho GTPases from membranes, resulting in rounding up of mammalian cells in culture. The proteolytic activity of YopT depends on the isoprenylation of the cysteine within the carboxyl-terminal CaaX motif, a reaction carried out by geranylgeranyltransferase type I. The CaaX motif (where "a" indicates aliphatic amino acids) of Rho proteins undergoes two additional processing steps: endoproteolytic removal of the last three amino acids (i.e., -aaX) by Rce1 (Ras-converting enzyme 1) and methylation of the geranylgeranylcysteine by Icmt (isoprenylcysteine carboxyl methyltransferase). In in vitro experiments, RhoA retaining -aaX cannot be cleaved by YopT. Nothing is known, however, about the influence of Rce1-mediated removal of -aaX on the activity of YopT in living cells. We hypothesized that Rce1-deficient mouse fibroblasts, in which the geranylgeranylated Rho proteins are not endoproteolytically processed, would be resistant to YopT. Indeed, this was the case. Microinjection of recombinant YopT into Rce1-deficient fibroblasts had no impact on the subcellular localization of RhoA and no impact on cell morphology. To determine if carboxyl methylation is also required for YopT action, we microinjected YopT into Icmt-deficient fibroblasts. In contrast to the results with Rce1-deficient cells, YopT cleaved RhoA and caused rounding up of the Icmt-deficient cells. Our data demonstrate that Rce1-mediated removal of -aaX from isoprenylated Rho GTPases is required for the proteolytic activity of YopT in living cells, whereas carboxyl methylation by Icmt is not."xsd:string |
