Abstract
Islet-brain 1 (IB1 or JIP-1) is a scaffold protein that interacts with components of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signal-transduction pathway. IB1 is expressed at high levels in neurons and in pancreatic beta-cells, where it controls expression of several insulin-secretory components and secretion. IB1 has been shown to homodimerize, but neither the molecular mechanisms nor the function of dimerization have yet been characterized. Here, we show that IB1 homodimerizes through a novel and unique set of Src homology 3 (SH3)-SH3 interactions. X-ray crystallography studies show that the dimer interface covers a region usually engaged in PxxP-mediated ligand recognition, even though the IB1 SH3 domain lacks this motif. The highly stable IB1 homodimer can be significantly destabilized in vitro by three individual point mutations directed against key residues involved in dimerization. Each mutation reduces IB1-dependent basal JNK activity in 293T cells. Impaired dimerization also results in a reduction in glucose transporter type 2 expression and in glucose-dependent insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells. Taken together, these results indicate that IB1 homodimerization through its SH3 domain has pleiotropic effects including regulation of the insulin secretion process.
Figure 1.
Figure 1 Protein interaction domains of IB1. (A) IB1 is characterized by a JBD (gray box, residues 154–182), SH3 (yellow box, residues 494–553) and a PID (orange box, residues 570–704). Residues are numbered according to the full-length rat IB1 sequence (GenBank, AF108959). The seven PxxP motifs are shown in black and red. Motifs marked in red are conserved in rat, human and mouse IB1 and IB2. MKK7 and MLK3, two of the known partners of IB1, bind to regions 287–472 and 473–709 of IB1, respectively. (B) Schematic representations of full-length and C-terminal deletion mutants of IB1. Numbering corresponds to the last amino-acid expressed in the various constructs. Binding results described in Figure 2 are summarized for all constructs. ND: not determined. (C) Sequence alignment of rat, mouse and human IB1/JIP1 and IB2/JIP2 SH3 domains. The sequence of rat IB1 (GenBank, AF108959), human JIP1 (Ensembl, ENSP00000241014), mouse JIP1 (Ensembl, ENSMUSP00000050773), rat IB2 (Ensembl, ENSRNOP00000050155), human IB2 (GenBank, AF218778) and mouse JIP2 (Ensembl, ENSMUSP00000023291) are included. The IB1 SH3 region is identical in all three species. Residues that participate to IB1 dimerization as well as those expected to do so in IB2 are shown in bold blue. Residues at the dimer interface involved in inter-protomer salt bridges or hydrogen bonds are shaded in green. Nonconserved amino acids between IB1 and IB2 are indicated with a star in the consensus sequence. The positions of the strands 1–5 and the 3[10]-helix are indicated in yellow.

Figure 4 Stereographic representation of the IB1 SH3 domain. (A) The solvent-accessible surface of the IB1 SH3 domain. Contact residues from the other molecule of the homodimer colored after atom type are shown as sticks. Carbon atoms from residues 500 to 510 are colored in gray, those from residues 525 to 529 are in yellow and the 542 to 547 region is shown in magenta. Residues 506 and 507 from both monomers are colored in cyan. (B) The solvent-accessible surfaces of the IB1 and SEM-5 SH3 domains. The surface of the IB1 SH3 domain is colored after atom type. The superimposed solvent-accessible surface of SEM-5 (Lim et al, 1994) is shown as a yellow mesh, along with the bound mSos-derived peptide PPPVPPR in sticks representation. The canonical PPII binding sites are labeled (Yu et al, 1994).

Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Small NH[2]-terminal region of JIP-1 is sufficient for interaction with JNK. (A) Cell lysates containing Flag-epitope-tagged^ JNK1 were incubated with GST and GST-JIP-1 (residues 127 to 281) bound to glutathione-Sepharose, and bound proteins were detected^ by protein immunoblot analysis with an antibody to Flag. The effect of increasing concentrations (0, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 µg/ml) of^ synthetic peptide corresponding to JIP-1 residues 148 to 174 or to a peptide with a scrambled sequence (control) was examined. (B) Binding of JNK1 to GST and GST-JIP-1 (residues 127^ to 281) was examined in the absence and presence of synthetic^ peptides (64 µg/ml). The effect of the wild-type peptide (JIP-1^ residues 148 to 174), peptides with point mutations (substitution with Gly) [Thr159 Gly159 (T159G)] (18), and a peptide with a scrambled primary sequence^ (control) was examined. The mutant JIP(159-162G) was constructed^ by replacement of JIP-1 residues 159 to 162 with Gly.

Fig. 4. JIP-1 inhibits pre-B cell transformation by Bcr-Abl. (A) JNK activation by v-Abl and Bcr-Abl is suppressed by JIP-1. JNK activity was measured in an immune-complex kinase assay of^ 293 cell lysates by means of a polyclonal JNK antibody and the^ substrate GST-Jun. The effect of transfection of the cells with plasmid vectors that express v-Abl, Bcr-Abl, and the JBD of JIP-1^ (residues 127 to 281) is presented. (B) Primary mouse marrow cells were infected with the bi-cistronic retroviruses illustrated^ (20). The mean density (×10^4) (±SE) of nonadherent pre-B cells on day 10 is presented. The^ data shown are derived from three independent experiments plated^ in triplicate. The empty box in the first line indicates that the vector does not contain an insert in this position. (C) Photomicrographs of representative plates from (B) are shown.

Fig. 2. IB1 is abundantly expressed in insulin-secreting cells. A, five micrograms of poly(A)+ RNA prepared from two different insulin-secreting cell lines, from rat liver, kidney, and whole pancreas, were analyzed by Northern blotting for IB1 gene expression.

C, Western blot analysis of TC3 whole cell extracts with the -IB1 antibody demonstrated^ the presence of a 120-kDa product that was not detected with the^ preimmune serum (CTRL). D, the IB1 protein is detected in 30 µg of whole cell extracts obtained from isolated rat pancreatic islets when analyzed by Western blotting with the -IB1 antibody. E, a plasmid containing the IB1 cDNA driven by a CMV promoter or its parent vector was transiently transfected into COS-7 cells and cytoplasmic (CE) or nuclear (NE) extracts prepared 48 h after transfection. By Western blot analysis, IB1 is detected in the^ cytoplasm and the nucleus of the transfected cells.

Author's comment:  IB1 differs from JIP-1 by the insertion of 47 amino acids, which contain a HLH and PID domain. A mutation in amino-terminal part of IB1 was described to be associated with a late-onset monogenic form of type 2 diabetes (Nature Gentics,2000) Gérard Waeber

Figure 2.
FIG. 2. Point mutations in the JNK binding domain of JIP1 abolish JIP-JNK interaction. COS 7 cells were co-transfected with plasmids encoding Myc-JIP1 (0.5 µg) or JIP1(R160G/P161G) (0.5 µg) and FLAG-JNK (0.5 µg) as indicated. Cell lysates were analyzed by immunoprecipitation using JIP1 antibody. Immune complexes were analyzed for the presence of JNK using anti-FLAG antibody. Cell lysates from corresponding experiments were analyzed for equivalent expression of JIP1 and JNK.

FIG. 10. Interaction of JIP1 with components of the JNK pathway. Schematic illustration of the dynamic relationship between JIP1, DLK, and JNK. Under basal conditions DLK is bound to JIP1 in a monomeric, inactive state. Upon stimulation, JNK is recruited to JIP1. This recruitment leads to JIP1 phosphorylation, DLK dissociation from JIP1, and subsequent dimerization and activation of DLK and ultimately JNK.
