NH2-Terminal Targeting Motifs Direct Dual Specificity A-Kinase–anchoring Protein 1 (D-AKAP1) to Either Mitochondria or Endoplasmic Reticulum



National Center for Microscopy and Imaging Research, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093-0654
Subcellular localization directed by specific targeting motifs is an emerging theme for regulating signal transduction pathways. For cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), this is achieved primarily by its association with A-kinase–anchoring proteins (AKAPs). Dual specificity AKAP1, (D-AKAP1) binds to both type I and type II regulatory subunits and has two NH2-terminal (N0 and N1) and two COOH-terminal (C1 and C2) splice variants (Huang et al., 1997. J. Biol. Chem. 272:8057). Here we report that the splice variants of D-AKAP1 are expressed in a tissue-specific manner with the NH2-terminal motifs serving as switches to localize D-AKAP1 at different sites. Northern blots showed that the N1 splice is expressed primarily in liver, while the C1 splice is predominant in testis. The C2 splice shows a general expression pattern. Microinjecting expression constructs of D-AKAP1(N0) epitope-tagged at either the NH2 or the COOH terminus showed their localization to the mitochondria based on immunocytochemistry. Deletion of N0(1-30) abolished mitochondrial targeting while N0(1-30)-GFP localized to mitochondria. Residues 1–30 of N0 are therefore necessary and sufficient for mitochondria targeting. Addition of the 33 residues of N1 targets D-AKAP1 to the ER and residues 1–63 fused to GFP are necessary and sufficient for ER targeting. Residues 14–33 of N1 are especially important for targeting to ER; however, residues 1–33 alone fused to GFP gave a diffuse distribution. N1(14-33) thus serves two functions: (a) it suppresses the mitochondrial-targeting motif located within residues 1–30 of N0 and (b) it exposes an ER-targeting motif that is at least partially contained within the N0(1-30) motif. This represents the first example of a differentially targeted AKAP and adds an additional level of complexity to the PKA signaling network.

cAMP is an important second messenger that regulates multiple cellular processes by activating cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)1. PKA exists as a holoenzyme consisting of a regulatory (R) subunit dimer and two catalytic (C) subunits. cAMP binding cooperatively to the R-subunits causes the complex to dissociate, releasing two free and active C-subunits. Due to the broad substrate specificity of PKA, compartmentalization serves as an additional regulatory mechanism that can increase both the selectivity and intensity of a cAMP-mediated hormonal response. For the free C-subunit, subcellular localization also can be modulated by PKI which, in addition to serving as an inhibitor, also contains a nuclear export signal that actively exports C from the nucleus (Wen et al., 1995). Localization of the inactive holoenzyme, however, is achieved primarily through association with A-kinase–anchoring proteins (AKAPs; Rubin, 1994; Scott and McCartney, 1994; Pawson and Scott, 1997). AKAPs typically interact with the NH2-terminal dimerization domain of the type II regulatory subunits and are tethered to structural proteins, membranes, or organelles (Leiser et al., 1986; Hausken et al., 1994; Lin, 1995; Lester et al., 1996). In some cases, AKAPs, such as AKAP79, act as scaffolds by recognizing several functionally related enzymes which bind to PKA, PKC, and protein phosphatase 2B (calcineurin; Coghlan et al., 1995; Klauck et al., 1996).
A novel AKAP, D-AKAP1, was discovered that can bind to both type I and type II regulatory subunits (Huang et al., 1997). Despite its single message in most tissues, several D-AKAP1 isoforms or homologues were identified in various species. These isoforms include mouse S-AKAP84 (Chen et al., 1997), AKAP100 (Chen et al., 1997), and AKAP121 (Chen et al., 1997); rat AKAP121 (Feliciello et al., 1998); human S-AKAP84 (Lin, 1995); and AKAP149 (Trendelenburg et al., 1996). Mouse homologues of D-AKAP1, as summarized in Fig. 1 A, share a 525–amino acid core, and differ at their COOH termini, presumably by alternative splicing. This core contains the R-binding domain that is responsible for interacting with the regulatory subunit. Therefore, all isoforms should share the function of anchoring PKA. D-AKAP1a and mouse S-AKAP84 have relatively short COOH termini, whereas D-AKAP1c (AKAP121) and AKAP100 both contain a putative KH domain which was proposed to bind RNA (Siomi et al., 1993; Trendelenburg et al., 1996; Chen et al., 1997; Huang et al., 1997). The COOH-terminal 19 residues of D-AKAP1a are designated as C1, whereas the COOH-terminal 333 residues of D-AKAP1c are designated as C2. In addition to the various COOH-terminal splices, two NH2-terminal alternative splices, N0 and N1, were identified in the cloning of D-AKAP1 (see Fig. 1 b). The N0 splice is included in the 525–amino acid core, and contains a stretch of hydrophobic residues proposed to be a mitochondrial-targeting sequence (Lin, 1995; Chen et al., 1997). The N1 splice contains 33 additional amino acids at its NH2 terminus, including a potential myristylation site and a putative PKA phosphorylation site.

Antibodies against D-AKAP1 were generated in female rabbits at Cocalico Corp. All oligonucleotides were synthesized at the Peptide and Oligonucleotide Facility at the University of California, San Diego.
Northern Analysis
Blots containing 2 µg of immobilized mRNAs from selected adult mouse tissues were probed with 32P-radiolabeled cDNA for the various splice variants. Nucleotides 1–90 encoding the first 30 residues of D-AKAP1b were amplified by PCR and used to make the cDNA probe specific for the N1 splice, nucleotides 2071–2366 of D-AKAP1a were used for the C1 splice, and nucleotides 2953–3317 of D-AKAP1c were used for the C2 splice. Fig. 2 a was taken from Huang et al. (1997), in which nucleotides 854–1226 encoding the kinase binding domain in the core region of D-AKAP1 were used for a probe common to all the splice variants. Nitrocellulose filters were prehybridized in 6x SSC (750 mM sodium chloride and 75 mM sodium citrate, pH 7.0), 1% milk, and 0.5 mg/ml salmon sperm DNA for 4 h at 65°C, then hybridized to 1.5 x 106 cpm/ml of denatured radiolabeled cDNA probe in the same buffer. Hybridization was performed at 65°C for 16 h and nonhybridized probe was removed with 0.1x SSC and 0.1%SDS at 65°C. Hybridizing mRNA signals were detected by autoradiography.

To make [HA]-N0(
1–30), which lacks the first 30 amino acids, a NotI site was engineered at residue 30 of [HA]-N0 by site directed mutagenesis (Kunkel et al., 1991), and the cDNA encoding residues 1–30 was excised using NotI. To make deletion mutants of [HA]-N1, a NotI site was engineered at residues Gly13 or Cys24 and cDNAs encoding sequences 1–13 or 1–24 were then excised using NotI. These two constructs lacking the first 13 or 24 residues of [HA]-N1 were designated N1(
1-13) and N1(
1-24), respectively.
To make (1-30)N0-[GFP], the first 30 residues of N0 were amplified by PCR with EcoRI and BglII engineered at the 5' and 3' termini and subcloned into vector pEGFP-N1 (Clontech) between EcoRI and BamHI sites. To make (1-63)N1-[GFP] and (1-33)N1-[GFP], the first 63 or 33 residues of D-AKAP1b were amplified by PCR with EcoRI and BglII engineered at their 5' and 3' termini, respectively. These two fragments were then subcloned into vector pEGFP-N1 (Clontech) between EcoRI and BamHI sites.
Cell-free Expression of [HA]-N0 and [HA]-N1
Expression vectors for [HA]-N0 and [HA]-N1 were tested using an in vitro transcription-translation kit (TNT T7 Quick coupled system; Promega). In brief, purified DNA was mixed with rabbit reticulocyte extract and 10 µCi [35S]methionine, and incubated at 30°C for 2 h. The assay mixtures were separated by SDS-PAGE and visualized by autoradiography for 48 h. These products were also subjected to immunoblot analysis using antibodies specific for N0 (anti-RPP7) or N1 (anti-N1), and visualized by ECL, which takes <1 min for exposure.
Cell Culture and Transient Transfection
Mouse 10T1/2 fibroblasts were maintained in DME containing 10% FBS, and plated at a density of 1 x 105 cells per 10-cm plate 24 h before transfection. Cells were transiently transfected, using the calcium phosphate method with 10 µg of DNA per plate (Sambrook et al., 1989). 20 h after transfection, cells were visualized by fluorescent microscopy either directly or after fixing with 4% paraformaldehyde.
Microinjection Analysis
For microinjection, cells were plated on glass coverslips and grown to 70% confluence in DME + 10% FBS. The coverslips were then transferred to DME containing 0.05% calf serum. After 24 h, the cells were injected into their nuclei with solutions of injection buffer (20 mM Tris, pH 7.2, 2 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM EDTA, and 20 mM NaCl) containing 100 µg/ml expression plasmid DNA. In some experiments, 6 mg/ml guinea pig IgG (Sigma Chemical Co.) was coinjected as a marker. Experiments were performed using an automatic micromanipulator (Eppendorf) with glass needles pulled on a vertical pipette puller (Kopf). For detection of expressed proteins, cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde 5 h after injection for 10 min, and then washed with 0.1% Tween in PBS. The cells were then incubated successively with appropriate antibodies.
Cell Staining
In general, cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 in PBS before staining with antibodies. HA-tagged proteins were stained with primary monoclonal anti-HA tag antibodies (dilution 1:100) for 1 h at 37°C then incubated with rhodamine-conjugated donkey anti–mouse IgG antibodies (dilution 1:200). In some experiments, the secondary antibody is biotinylated donkey anti–mouse IgG, which is in turn stained by Texas red streptavidin. To stain mitochondria, two methods were used. 200 nM of a mitochondrion-specific dye (Mitotracker; Molecular Probes Inc.) was incubated with the microinjected cells for 30 min before fixation. Alternatively, a vector encoding a mitochondrial-specific green fluorescent protein ([GFP]-mito; Llopis et al., 1998) was comicroinjected with the HA-tagged proteins, and mitochondria were visualized directly by GFP. In addition, cells were stained with Cy-5 conjugated anti–guinea pig IgG (dilution 1:100) to discriminate injected from noninjected cells. To stain ER, cells were incubated with rat anti-Bip antibodies (dilution 1:100), washed three times with 0.1% Tween in PBS, and probed with fluorescein-conjugated donkey anti–rat IgG (dilution 1:100). Between incubations with different antibodies, cells were washed three times with 0.1% Tween in PBS for 5 min each time at room temperature to eliminate nonspecific staining.
Laser-scanning Confocal Microscopy
Samples were visualized by confocal microscopy using an MRC-1024 system (Bio Rad Laboratories) attached to an Axiovert 35M (Zeiss AG) and a 40x NA objective. Excitation illumination was with 488-, 568-, and 647-nm light from a krypton/argon laser. Individual images (1024 x 1024 pixels) were converted to PICT format and merged as pseudo-color RGB images using Adobe Photoshop (Adobe Systems). Digital prints were from a Fujix Pictrography 3000 printer (Fuji).

Expression of [HA]-N0 and [HA]-N1
To determine the location of D-AKAP1 in cells, [HA]-N0 and [HA]-N1 that had an HA-tag at the NH2 terminus of D-AKAP1a and D-AKAP1b were constructed as described in the Materials and Methods. D-AKAP1a is comprised of the N0 splice and the C1 splice; D-AKAP1b is comprised of the N1 splice and the C1 splice. To determine whether the vectors can express the appropriate proteins, expression was tested first in a cell-free translation system. As seen in Fig. 3, in vitro transcription-translation of [HA]-N0 or [HA]-N1 gave protein products with the apparent molecular mass of 107 and 114 kD, respectively. These are approximately what would be predicted from the sequence. To further verify these expressed products, they were also subjected to immunoblot analysis using antibodies raised against a core region of D-AKAP1 (RPP7) or generated specifically to N1. Only the protein product expressed from [HA]-N1 reacted with antibodies specific for N1 (Fig. 3).

To determine whether the first 30 residues of N0 are necessary and/or sufficient to target mitochondria, two additional constructs were engineered. [HA]-N0(
1–30) contained HA-tagged full-length D-AKAP1a lacking the first 30 residues, and (1-30)N0-[GFP] contained only the first 30 residues of D-AKAP1a fused to GFP. As shown in Fig. 4 C, when cDNA of [HA]-N0(
1–30) was microinjected into the nucleus of 10T1/2 cells, a diffused cytoplasmic staining pattern was observed indicating the loss of mitochondrial targeting. In contrast, (1-30)N0-[GFP] showed a characteristic mitochondrial pattern (Fig. 4 D). Thus, as summarized in Fig. 4 E, the first 30 residues of N0 were not only necessary, but also sufficient for mitochondrial localization.
N1 Targets D-AKAP1b to ER
In addition to the N0 splice, D-AKAP1 has at least one alternative NH2-terminal splice variant, N1, that includes 33 extra amino acids NH2-terminal to the N0 splice. To investigate if these 33 residues affect the localization of D-AKAP1, [HA]-N1 was constructed. [HA]-N1 encodes HA-tagged D-AKAP1b, which consists of the N1 splice in addition to D-AKAP1a. Cells microinjected with an expression construct for [HA]-N1 had a more "lacy" staining pattern. Colocalization of [HA]-N1 with Bip, an hsp70 homologue that resides in the lumen of the ER (Haas, 1994), indicated [HA]-N1 is targeted to the ER (Fig. 5 A). Therefore, the extra 33 residues of the N1 splice not only abolished mitochondrial targeting of D-AKAP1, but also exhibited an ER-targeting function. Cells microinjected with the [HA]-N1 expression vector were also cross-stained with [GFP]-mito and showed no overlapping staining (data not shown).

1-13) and N1(
1-24) were engineered. N1(
1-13) contained the full-length D-AKAP1b with the first 13 residues deleted, while N1(
1-24) contained the full-length D-AKAP1b with the first 24 residues deleted. Both had the HA tag fused to the NH2-terminus. N1(
1-13), like full-length [HA]-D-AKAP1b, colocalized with Bip, indicating its localization to the ER (Fig. 5 B), whereas N1(
1-24) had a mixed localization pattern between ER and mitochondria. Fig. 5 C shows fluorescence imaging of two cells microinjected with the N1(
1-24) expression construct that exhibited a more prominent mitochondrial pattern. Since N1(
1-24) had decreased ability to target D-AKAP1 to ER, residues 14–33 must participate in dictating the ER localization of N1. Residues 14–33 of N1, as shown in Fig. 5 d, contain a potential PKA phosphorylation site (RRCSY). To test if phosphorylation of this site participated in the ER-targeting function of N1, three mutants with the potentially phosphorylatable Ser changed to Ala, Glu, and Asp were engineered in the construct [HA]-N1. All three mutants exhibited ER localization (original data not shown).
The First 30 Residues of N0 Are Necessary for both Mitochondrial Targeting and ER Targeting
To further localize the ER-targeting signal, two GFP fusion constructs were engineered. (1-63)N1-[GFP] contains the 33 extra amino acids of N1 plus the 30 residues of N0, sufficient for mitochondria targeting, fused to GFP. (1-33)N1-[GFP] contains only the 33 residues of N1 fused to GFP. As shown in Fig. 6 A, cells microinjected with the expression vector encoding (1-63)N1-[GFP] had a lacy staining pattern, characteristic of ER localization, whereas cells microinjected with the (1-33)N1-[GFP] expression vector showed a diffuse staining pattern, similar to GFP alone (Fig. 6 B). Cells expressing (1-63)N1-[GFP] were also stained with the anti-N1 antibody and ER localization was detected (data not shown). These results indicated that the 33 residues of N1, when fused to the mitochondrial-targeting sequence of N0, were sufficient to switch its localization to the ER. However, these 33 amino acids alone were not able to dictate ER localization. Therefore, the ER-targeting signal is at least partially located within the NH2-terminal 30 residues of N0. The 33 additional amino acids at the NH2 terminus of N1 thus were able to (a) suppress the mitochondrial-targeting function of N0 and (b) generate a new ER-targeting function. Since HA-tagging at the NH2 terminus of N0 did not alter its mitochondrial localization, it does not appear as though mitochondrial targeting requires the insertion of the NH2 terminal N0 motif into the membrane.

D-AKAP1 represents a family of AKAPs with splice variants at both the NH2 terminus and COOH terminus. We showed here that, based on Northern blot analysis, three of these splice variants are expressed in a tissue-specific manner of the tissues tested. N1 was expressed exclusively in liver, while C1 was expressed predominantly in testis. C2 was expressed in all tissues tested but spleen, consistent with the overall expression pattern of D-AKAP1 core. Furthermore, we demonstrated here that the two NH2-terminal splice variants, N0 and N1, act as localization switches to dictate subcellular localization of D-AKAP1 to either mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum. Fig. 7 summarizes the functional properties of the motifs at the NH2 terminus of N0 and N1.

When the first 30 amino acids of D-AKAP1 were compared with another protein that localizes to the outer mitochondrial membrane, hexokinase I, substantial similarities were identified (Wilson, 1997; Xie and Wilson, 1988). As shown in Fig. 4 E, in addition to the lack of negatively charged residues, hydrophobic residues and consecutive aromatic amino acids were homologous between the two proteins. This conserved stretch of residues (residues 1–15 in hexokinase I) was also identified to be necessary and sufficient to confer mitochondrial binding (Sui and Wilson, 1997). Recently, the crystal structure of the mammalian hexokinase I was determined, revealing that this stretch of mitochondrial-targeting residues forms an amphipathic helix (Mulichak et al., 1998). Whether D-AKAP1 uses the same mechanism for mitochondrial targeting awaits further investigation. However, since the attachment of an epitope tag at the beginning of N0 did not abolish targeting to mitochondria, it is unlikely that the NH2-terminal motif simply inserts as an amphipathic helix into the membrane bilayer as has been proposed for hexokinase.
Surprisingly, despite the fact that N1 also contains the stretch of hydrophobic residues necessary for mitochondrial targeting, it exhibited a dramatically different localization. [HA]-N1 colocalized with Bip and showed a prominent ER staining, indicating the localization to the ER. Therefore, the extra 33 amino acids in N1, including a potential myristylation site followed by a potential PKA phosphorylation site, not only abolished mitochondrial targeting of N0 but also generated an ER-targeting function. The two distinct localizations for the two NH2-terminal splice variants of D-AKAP1 defines the first example of an AKAP that shows a localization switch. Since N1 is only expressed in the liver, this switch of mitochondrial to ER localization may have physiological implications. D-AKAP1 does not contain a conventional Lys-Asp-Glu-Leu (KDEL) sequence that was shown to be essential for ER retention of most soluble proteins (Andres et al., 1990). Therefore, this ER localization of N1 might define a novel mechanism for ER retention. Furthermore, with the NH2-terminal HA-tagged N1 still localized to ER, myristylation at the NH2 terminus of N1 is thus not likely to be necessary for its ER targeting.
To further dissect N1, two deletion mutations were constructed and examined. N1(
1-13) shows localization to the ER, similar to the full-length [HA]-N1, whereas N1(
1-24) has a mixed staining pattern at mitochondrial and ER. Because N1(
1-33), i.e., [HA]-N0, localizes exclusively to the mitochondria, residues 14-33 of N1 are especially important for the ER-targeting function. A potential PKA phosphorylation site was identified within this region of N1. Nevertheless, three mutations with the potentially phosphorylatable Ser changed to Ala, Asp, and Glu all localized to ER. The Ser to Ala mutant localized to ER, indicating that the unphosphorylated D-AKAP1 is likely to reside in ER. Since Asp and Glu sometimes do not fully mimic the phosphate moiety, whether phosphorylation affects targeting to ER is still unclear. However, the ER localization is not altered in the presence of exogenous cAMP analogue (data not shown), suggesting that phosphorylation may not be important for targeting.
By investigating the localization of (1-33)N1-[GFP], (1-63)N1-[GFP], and (1-30)N0-[GFP], the localization switch was further characterized. (1-33)N1-[GFP] showed a diffuse pattern in the cytoplasm, similar to GFP, whereas (1-63)N1-[GFP] localizes to ER. (1-30)N0-[GFP], i.e., (34-63)N1-[GFP], exhibited mitochondrial localization. These results not only indicate that the extra 33 residues do not contain an ER-targeting sequence, they also suggest that at least part of the ER-targeting function is embedded within the first 30 residues of N0 that also contain the mitochondrial-targeting signal. Adding N1 to the NH2 terminus of N0 somehow is able to suppress its mitochondrial-targeting ability and also to generate a new ER-targeting signal. Whether this ER-targeting signal resides exclusively in N0 and is only exposed upon addition of N1, or whether this ER-targeting signal is instead generated by a composite of N0 and a portion of N1 is still under investigation.
The alternative splicing that alters the subcellular localization of D-AKAP1 may represent a novel and important regulatory mechanism to increase regulatory versatility and allow for cell type–specific gene regulation for these anchoring proteins and their signal transduction pathways. Further effort to dissect the molecular mechanism for this ER/mitochondria localization switch is underway.
