2. Quality Control in the Cytoplasm:
A. Anfinsen's dogma:
All information needed for folding contained in the amino acid sequence:
Leads to the concept of spontaneous protein folding.
B. Problems with Anfinsen's dogma (and the notion of
spontaneous folding):
Features of cellular environments cause misfolding & aggregation.
1. Some proteins take a very long time to fold spontaneously.
2. Some protein domains are prone to misfolding and aggregation.

Protein folding in vivo
Problems with Anfinsen's dogma, cont.
Folding in the cell differs from refolding of a
denatured protein in vitro due to:
final folded structure
nascent chain
Vectorial nature of protein synthesis in vivo.
Exposure of hydrophobic regions during
synthesis.
Translation happens more slowly than folding,
requiring a “delay” mechanism to allow
translation to "catch up".
PRODUCTIVE PATHWAY
aggregation due to exposure of
hydrophobic regions
Highly crowded cytoplasm: 300 mg/ml prot.
Folding in vitro is inefficient (20 - 30%); in the
cell, efficiency close to 100%.
Conditions of stress found in vivo exacerbate
misfolding and aggregation.

2. Quality Control in the Cytoplasm:
C. Molecular Chaperones: Proteins that mediate correct fate of
other polypeptides but are not part of the final structure.
Fate includes folding, assembly, interaction with other cellular components,
transport, or degradation.
A. History:
Molecular chaperones initially identified as heat shock proteins,
i.e. proteins upregulated by heat shock and other stresses.
Heat shock causes protein denaturation with exposure and
aggregation of interactive surfaces.
Heat shock proteins inhibit aggregation by binding to
exposed surfaces during times of stress but also during normal protein synthesis
Thus, the stress response is simply an amplification of a normal
function that is used by cells under non-stress conditions.

 Include DnaJ (bacteria); BiP (ER)
Stabilize polypeptide surfaces in an unfolded state.
Bind transiently to newly-synthesized proteins:
paradoxically, efficient folding requires "antifolding".
Bind permanently to misfolded protein.
Have affinity for exposed hydrophobic peptides.
Do NOT bind a specific sequence.
Present in bacteria, eukaryotes & all compartments.
Regulated by ATP hydrolysis.

Facilitate proper folding
Bind and hydrolyze ATP
Bind transiently to 10-15% proteins, but 2-3fold more w/stress
60 kD proteins that form oligomeric, stacked double rings
Bring non-native substrate protein to central cavity folding where
protected from aggregation with other non-native proteins
Cycles of binding and release until the protein is properly folded
GroEL (prokaryotic hsp 60) uses a cofactor, GroES.

3. Quality control in the ER:
A. Translation and translocation of proteins into the ER:
 Proteins that translocate into ER of mammalian cells include secretory proteins,
TM proteins, or residents of a membranous compartment.
 These are targeted to the ER CO-TRANSLATIONALLY by an N-terminal signal
sequence that generally gets cleaved during translocation across the ER membrane.

Post-translational Modifications:
3. Quality Control in the ER:
B. Features of the ER:
Proteins need to be unfolded to translocate
Until signal sequence cleaved, N terminus of protein is constrained "incorrectly”
ER lumen is topologically equivalent to extracellular space
High oxidizing potential (unlike cytoplasm which is highly reduced)
High Ca+2 concentration unlike cytoplasm
Many sugars present along with machinery for glycosylation
As in cytoplasm: high protein conc. (100 mg/ml) promotes aggregation
As in cytoplasm: delay between translation/ translocation vs. folding
Site of specific post-translational events: signal cleavage, S-S bond formation,
N-linked glycosylation and GPI anchor addition

3. Quality Control in the ER:
C. Specific ER chaperones:
i. HSP 70 family members: BiP/GRP78
Recognize hydrophobic sequences in nascent chains.
Undergo successive rounds of ATP-dependent binding and release.
Essential for translocation of newly-synthesized proteins across the ER
lumen and for retrograde transport into the cytosol (see ERAD, below).
ii. Immunophilins/ FKBP - peptidyl prolyl isomerases.
iii. Thiol-disulfide isomerases - PDI and ERp57
iv. Calnexin and Calreticulin:
Unique to the ER
Are lectins (carbohydrate binding proteins)

3. Quality Control in the ER
D. Mechanisms
To pass QC checkpoints, protein must be correctly folded (most
energetically favorable, native state)
If protein fails to fold properly it must be degraded
I. Example 1: BiP
BiP (Hsp70 in ER) binds to newly-synthesized and unfolded chains.
BiP stays associated with misfolded (but not properly folded) proteins.
Retention by BiP leads to degradation (see proteolysis below).

3. Quality Control in the ER
D. Mechanisms, cont.
ii. Example 2: Calnexin/calreticulin bind
to incompletely folded
monoglucosylated glycans
Cycles of binding/release controlled by:
Glucosidase II: cleaves glucose from
core glycan
UDP-glucose: glucosyltransferase
(GT) reglucosylates incompletelyfolded proteins so that they bind
lectins again
Thus GT acts as a folding sensor:
proteins exit the cycle when GT fails
to re-glucosylate. Glucose is a tag
that signifies incomplete folding

Post-translational Modifications:
4. Selective post-translational proteolysis.
Selective proteolysis is critical for cellular regulation.
3 steps for proteolysis in the cytoplasm:
identify protein to be degraded
mark it by ubiquitination
deliver it to the proteasome, a protease complex that degrades it
A. The Ubiquitin/Proteasome system:
Ubiquitin:
A highly-conserved 76 aa protein present in all eukaryotes.
Covalently attached to e-amino groups in lysine side chains,
Can be a single ubiquitin or multiple branched ubiquitins.
Signal for ubiquitination can be:
1. Programmed via hydrophobic sequence or other motif
2. Acquired by 1) phosphorylation, 2) binding to adaptor protein, or
3) protein damage due to fragmentation, oxidation or aging.

4. Post-translational Quality Control: Selective proteolysis.
B. Ubiquitination requires 3 enzymes:
E1 (ubiquitin-activating enzyme) activates ubiquitin (U)
E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme) acquires U via high-energy thioester
E3 (ubiquitin ligase) transfers U to target proteins
Hierarchical organization: one or few E1s exist, more E2s, many E3s.
Other functions for ubiquitination (to be discussed in plasma membrane lecture).

4. Post-translational Quality Control: Selective proteolysis
B. The Proteasome - high molecular weight (28S) protease complex that
degrades ubiquitinated proteins in the cytoplasm
Present in cytoplasm and nucleus, not ER
Uses ATP
Contains a 700 kD protease core and two 900 kD regulatory domains.
Highly conserved and similar to proteases found in bacteria.
Shaped like a cylinder.
Proteins enter the cavity, and are cleaved into small peptides.
Most but not all proteasome substrates are ubiqutinated.

Post-translational Modifications:
5. Glycosylation in the ER and beyond:
Role of sugars in the ER: bulky hydrophilic groups that
maintain proteins in solution, affect protein
conformation, and allow lectins to facilitate folding and
exert quality control.
A. N-linked glycosylation - co-translational;
recognizes Asn-x-Ser/Thr on nascent chain
Catalyzed by oligosaccharyltransferases - integral
membrane proteins with active site in the lumen.
Transfers a preformed "high mannose" 14-residue
sugar(Glc3Man9GlcNAc2) en bloc to asparagine
residues on the acceptor nascent polypeptide
chains. Highly conserved in mammals, plants,
fungi.
i. Donor molecule is dolichol-P-P-Glc3Man9GlcNAc2.
Dolichol is a very long lipid carrier.
ii. Subsequent trimming of residues (also called
processing) off core sugar attached to protein
occurs in the ER via glucosidases and
mannosidases.
N glycosylation can be prevented using:
Tunicamycin: inhibits formation of the dolichol-P-P
precursor.

glycans, because they don't have the ability
A. N-linked glycosylation, cont.
iii.  -Glucosyltransferase recognizes
misfolded glycoproteins and
reglycosylates them.
iv. Calreticulin and calnexin serve as
sensors by binding to monoglucosylated proteins, facilitating
their folding and assembly.
v. Only glycoproteins that have been
correctly folded (by calnexin and
calreticulin), get packaged into ER-toGolgi transport vesicles.
vi. In the cis Golgi, further processing &
addition of GlcNac's to form
branched structures
vii. Addition of more sugar residues in
the trans-Golgi (I.e. fucose and sialic
acid) to produce the diversity that is
seen in mature glycans.

to add GlcNac in the trans Golgi
Since bacteria & yeast lack Glc-Nac
transferase enzyme, this enzyme
demarcates a fundamental evolutionary
boundary between uni- and multicellular
organisms.

Many different types of sugars are added onto -OH of serine or
threonine residues.
Most of these are added in ER or Golgi
However, addition of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNac) can occur
in cytoplasm on many different types of proteins
May play an important role in signaling, much like
phosphorylation
May act in signaling to oppose phosphorylation

6. Other post-translational modifications:
A. Disulfide bond formation in the ER
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI): in the ER: catalyzes oxidation of disulfide bonds
in the cytosol and at the plasma membrane: reduces disulfide bonds
Other proteins that act like PDI may be even more important in disulfide bond
formation
Requires action of a regenerating molecule (i.e. glutathione); NADPH is the source of
redox equivalents.

Post-translational Modifications:
7. Post-translational Modifications that Alter Location:
i. Myristoylation: addition of C-14 FA myristate to N-terminus in cytoplasm
Donor is myristoyl CoA
Occurs co-translationally in the cytoplasm; can occur post-translationally when
hidden motif is revealed by protein cleavage (i.e. pro-apoptotic protein BID)
Enzyme NMT recognizes consensus sequence at N-terminus often revealed by a
conformational change (myristoyl switch).
Promotes weak but typically irreversible interaction with cytosolic membrane face
Myristoylated proteins traffic through the cytoplasm
Myristoylation necessary but not sufficient for membrane binding

interact with acidic phospholipids PS and PI), or myristate plus palmitate

Post-translational Modifications:
8. Examples from Pathobiology:
A. ERAD discovered through study of CMV US11 (Wiertz et al., Cell 84: 769, 1996).
1. MHC class I, a TM protein, binds viral peptides produced in cells and presents them at the cell
surface to cytotoxic T cells.
2. CMV evades the immune system by targeting MHC class I for destruction soon after it is
synthesized and translocated into the ER. How does it do this?
3. CMV US11 protein expressed alone causes MHC class I destruction.
4. US 11 effect is sensitive to proteasome inhibitors and involves MHC class I localization to
cytoplasm, implying movemnt of US 11 out of ER into cytoplasm for degradation.
5. Before this paper, only forward movement thru translocon was thought to occur; this paper by
Ploegh’s group studying a CMV protein raised the possibility of retrograde movement thru
translocon.
ERAD:
6. Subsequently, retrograde movement
thru translocon for degradation
(ERAD) was shown to be a common
in non-infected cells.
7. Note that MHC class I needs to be
poly-ubiquitinated for retrograde
transport to occur, implying a role for
ubiqutination in retrolocation, not just
in targeting for degradation.
8. Additional studies reveal that other
pathogens use this mechanism: I.e.
HIV-1 accessory protein Vpu
promotes degradation of CD4 by
ERAD.

Role is to bind CD4 and chemokine
receptors during HIV-1 entry.
2. Co-translationally translocated into ER as
gp160.
3. Has ~30 potential sites for N-linked
glycosylation in ER.
If non-glycosylated: won’t bind CD4.
Some glycosylations are dispensible for
proper folding; others are needed.
4. Forms 10 disulfide bonds in ER (9 are in
gp120 portion).
5. Trimerization of HIV-1 env in ER
6. Proper folding/trimerization equires BiP,
calnexin, calreticulin, and PDI.
