Geranylgeranylation of Rabs is a complex reaction that requires a catalytic Rab geranylgeranyl transferase (GGTase) and a Rab escort protein (REP). REP binds unprenylated Rab and presents it to Rab GGTase. After GG transfer, REP remains associated with diGG-Rab, which leads to insertion of the Rab into a specific membrane. We used recombinant Rab1a single cysteine mutants that accept only one GG group to study the mechanism of the digeranylgeranylation reaction. Using the prenylation assay, gel filtration chromatography, and density ultracentrifugation, we show that REP, but not Rab GGTase, forms a stable complex with unprenylated, monoGG- and diGG-Rab1a. The REP.monoGG-Rab1a complex is stable in the presence of detergents or phospholipids, whereas the REP.diGG-Rab1a complex partially dissociates under these conditions. The stoichiometry of the REP.Rab complex appears to be 1:1 before prenylation. Prenylation induces a change in complex stoichiometry, with the formation of a 2:2 or 2:1 REP.Rab complex. A possible mechanism by which Rab proteins are digeranylgeranylated is suggested by the current studies. We propose that each geranylgeranyl addition is an independent reaction that leads to the production of monoGG-Rab and diGG-Rab, respectively. The stability of the REP.monoGG-Rab complex prevents monoGG-Rab from dissociating from REP prior to the second geranylgeranylation reaction, ensuring efficient digeranylgeranylation of Rab substrates."xsd:string |
