| Abstrakt: | Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Previous studies have reported more than 50 CME accessory proteins; however, the mechanism driving the invagination of clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) remains elusive. Quantitative live cell imaging reveals that CCDC32, a poorly characterized endocytic accessory protein, regulates CCP stabilization and is required for efficient CCP invagination. CCDC32 interacts with the α-appendage domain (AD) of AP2 via its coiled-coil domain to exert this function. Furthermore, we showed that the clinically observed nonsense mutations in CCDC32, which result in the development of cardio-facio-neuro-developmental syndrome (CFNDS), inhibit CME by abolishing CCDC32-AP2 interactions. Overall, our data demonstrates the function and molecular mechanism of a novel endocytic accessory protein, CCDC32, in CME regulation. Significance Statement: Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) happens via the initiation, stabilization, and invagination of clathrin-coated pits (CCPs). In this study, we used a combination of quantitative live cell imaging, ultrastructure electron microscopy and biochemical experiments to show that CCDC32, a poorly studied and functional ambiguous protein, acts as an important endocytic accessory protein that regulates CCP stabilization and invagination. Specifically, CCDC32 exerts this function via its interactions with AP2, and the coiled-coil domain of CCDC32 and the α-appendage domain (AD) of AP2 are essential in mediating CCDC32-AP2 interactions. Importantly, we demonstrate that clinically observed loss-of-function mutations in CCDC32 lose AP2 interaction capacity and inhibit CME, resulting in the development of cardio-facio-neuro-developmental syndrome (CFNDS). |
