Sterol Regulatory Element

Sterol regulatory element–binding protein 2 (SREBP2) is the master transcription factor that regulates cholesterol metabolism. SREBP2 activation is regulated by SREBP chaperone SCAP. Here we show that ring finger protein 5 (RNF5), an endoplasmic reticulum-anchored E3 ubiquitin ligase, mediates the Lys-29–linked polyubiquitination of SCAP and thereby activates SREBP2. RNF5 knockdown inhibited SREBP2 activation and reduced cholesterol biosynthesis in human hepatoma cells, and RNF5 overexpression activated SREBP2. Mechanistic studies revealed that RNF5 binds to the transmembrane domain of SCAP and ubiquitinates the Lys-305 located in cytosolic loop 2 of SCAP. Moreover, the RNF5-mediated ubiquitination enhanced an interaction between SCAP luminal loop 1 and loop 7, a crucial event for SREBP2 activation. Notably, an overexpressed K305R SCAP variant failed to restore the SREBP2 pathway in SCAP-deficient cell lines. These findings define a new mechanism by which an ubiquitination-induced SCAP conformational change regulates cholesterol biosynthesis.

Lipid Abnormalities

AbstractWe investigated the effects of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on cholesterol biosynthesis in a case-control study. mRNA and protein expressions of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) and ATP binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) were significantly upregulated in cases (HIV+) compared to controls (HIV-). We observed dysregulation between sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP-2, sensory control) and HMGCR and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) pathways. Dysregulation of cholesterol biosynthesis genes may predate clinical manifestation of ART-induced lipid abnormalities.

Microarray Expression

ABSTRACT We generated a line of mice in which sterol regulatory element binding protein 1a (SREBP-1a) was specifically inactivated by insertional mutagenesis. Homozygous mutant mice were completely viable despite expressing SREBP-1a mRNA below 5% of normal, and there were minimal effects on expression of either SREBP-1c or -2. Microarray expression studies in liver, where SREBP-1a mRNA is 1/10 the level of the highly similar SREBP-1c, demonstrated that only a few genes were affected. The only downregulated genes directly linked to lipid metabolism were Srebf1 (which encodes SREBP-1) and Acacb (which encodes acetyl coenzyme A [acetyl-CoA] carboxylase 2 [ACC2], a critical regulator of fatty acyl-CoA partitioning between cytosol and mitochondria). ACC2 regulation is particularly important during food restriction. Similar to Acacb knockout mice, SREBP-1a-deficient mice have lower hepatic triglycerides and higher serum ketones during fasting than wild-type mice. SREBP-1a and -1c have identical DNA binding and dimerization domains; thus, the failure of the more abundant SREBP-1c to substitute for activating hepatic ACC2 must relate to more efficient recruitment of transcriptional coactivators to the more potent SREBP-1a activation domain. Our chromatin immunoprecipitation results support this hypothesis.

Stimulation Of

Previous work showed that acute stimulation of a conditionally active protein kinase B (PKB or cAKT) was sufficient to elicit insulin-like induction of GCK (glucokinase) and SREBP1 (sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1) in hepatocytes [Iynedjian, Roth, Fleischmann and Gjinovci (2000) Biochem. J. 351, 621–627; Fleischmann and Iynedjian (2000) Biochem. J. 349, 13–17]. The objective of the present study was to determine whether activation of PKB during insulin stimulation of hepatocytes was a necessary condition for the induction of the two genes. Activation of PKB by insulin was inhibited by pretreatment of the hepatocytes with C2 ceramide. This resulted in the inhibition of insulin-dependent increases in GCK and SREBP1 mRNAs. A triple mutant of PKB failed to interfere with insulin activation of PKB in hepatocytes even at high overexpression levels achieved after adenovirus transduction. A PKB–CaaX fusion protein, which can act as a dominant-negative inhibitor of PKB activation in other cells, was shown to be constitutively activated in hepatocytes and to trigger insulin-like induction of GCK and SREBP1. In addition, constitutive PKB–CaaX activity caused refractoriness of the hepatocytes to insulin signalling at an upstream step resulting in the inhibition of both extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and endogenous PKB activation. The stimulation of gene expression by constitutively active PKB–CaaX and inhibition of the insulin effect by ceramide are compatible with a role for PKB in the insulin-dependent induction of GCK and SREBP1.
