Abstrakt: Many insulin gene variants alter the protein sequence and result in monogenic diabetes due to insulin insufficiency. However, the molecular mechanisms of various disease-causing mutations are unknown. Insulin is synthesized as preproinsulin containing a signal peptide (SP). SPs of secreted proteins are recognized by the signal recognition particle (SRP) or by another factor in a SRP-independent pathway. If preproinsulin uses SRP-dependent or independent pathways is still debatable. We demonstrate by the use of site-specific photocrosslinking that the SRP subunit, SRP54, interacts with the preproinsulin SP. Moreover, SRP54 depletion leads to the decrease of insulin mRNA and protein expression, supporting the involvement of the RAPP protein quality control in insulin biogenesis. RAPP regulates the quality of secretory proteins through degradation of their mRNA. We tested five disease-causing mutations in the preproinsulin SP on recognition by SRP and on their effects on mRNA and protein levels. We demonstrate that the effects of mutations are associated with their position in the SP and their severity. The data support diverse molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of these mutations. We show for the first time the involvement of the RAPP protein quality control pathway in insulin biogenesis that is implicated in the development of neonatal diabetes caused by the Leu13Arg mutation.
