Effect of Alternative Glycosylation on Insulin Receptor Processing

Joseph B. Hwang and Susan C. Frost

From the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Florida College of Medicine, Gainesville, Florida 32610

The mature insulin receptor is a cell surface heterotetrameric glycoprotein composed of two alpha - and two beta -subunits. In 3T3-L1 adipocytes as in other cell types, the receptor is synthesized as a single polypeptide consisting of uncleaved alpha - and beta -subunits, migrating as a 190-kDa glycoprotein. To examine the importance of N-linked glycosylation on insulin receptor processing, we have used glucose deprivation as a tool to alter protein glycosylation. Western blot analysis shows that glucose deprivation led to a time-dependent accumulation of an alternative proreceptor of 170 kDa in a subcellular fraction consistent with endoplasmic reticulum localization. Co-precipitation assays provide evidence that the alternative proreceptor bound GRP78, an endoplasmic reticulum molecular chaperone. N-Glycosidase F treatment shows that the alternative proreceptor contained N-linked oligosaccharides. Yet, endoglycosidase H insensitivity indicates an aberrant oligosaccharide structure. Using pulse-chase methodology, we show that the synthetic rate was similar between the normal and alternative proreceptor. However, the normal proreceptor was processed into alpha - and beta -subunits (t1/2 = 1.3 ± 0.6 h), while the alternative proreceptor was degraded (t1/2 = 5.1 ± 0.6 h). Upon refeeding cells that were initially deprived of glucose, the alternative proreceptor was processed to a higher molecular weight form and gained sensitivity to endoglycosidase H. This "intermediate" form of the proreceptor was also degraded, although a small fraction escaped degradation, resulting in cleavage to the alpha - and beta -subunits. These data provide evidence for the first time that glucose deprivation leads to the accumulation of an alternative proreceptor, which can be post-translationally glycosylated with the readdition of glucose inducing both accelerated degradation and maturation.
