Popis: SummaryBin/amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domains are positively charged crescent-shaped modules that shape negatively charged curved lipid membranes during membrane remodeling processes. The BAR domain proteins ICA69, PICK1 and arfaptins have recently been demonstrated to coordinate the budding and formation of immature secretory granules (ISGs) at thetrans-Golgi network. Here, we identify four coding variants in the PICK1 gene from a Danish whole-exome screening of diabetic patients, that all involve change of positively charged residues in the PICK1 BAR domain. All four coding variants failed to rescue the insulin content in INS-1E cells upon KD of endogenous PICK1. Moreover, two variants showed dominant negative properties. Interestingly,in vitroassays addressing the BAR domain function suggest that the coding variants compromised membrane binding capacity but increased capacity to cause fission of liposomes.Live confocal microscopy and super-resolution microscopy further revealed that PICK1 resides transiently on ISGs before egress via vesicular budding events. Interestingly, this egress of PICK1 was accelerated in the coding variants. We propose that PICK1 assists or complements the removal of excess membrane and generic membrane trafficking proteins, and possibly also insulin from ISGs during the maturation process and that the coding variants may cause premature budding possibly explaining their dominant negative function.
