The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance
regulator (CFTR) contains a conserved tyrosine-based internalization
motif, 1424YDSI, which interacts with the endocytic
clathrin adaptor complex, AP-2, and is required for its efficient
endocytosis. Although direct interactions between several endocytic
sequences and the medium chain and endocytic clathrin adaptor complexes
have been shown by protein-protein interaction assays, whether all
these interactions occur in vivo or are physiologically
important has not always been addressed. Here we show, using both
in vitro and in vivo assays, a physiologically
relevant interaction between CFTR and the µ subunit of AP-2.
Cross-linking experiments were performed using photoreactive peptides
containing the YDSI motif and purified adaptor complexes. CFTR peptides
cross-linked a 50-kDa subunit of purified AP-2 complexes, the apparent
molecular mass of µ2. Furthermore, isolated µ2 bound to the sorting
motif, YDSI, both in cross-linking experiments and glutathione
S-transferase pull-down experiments, confirming that µ2
mediates the interaction between CFTR and AP-2 complexes. Inducible
overexpression of dominant-negative µ2 in HeLa cells results in AP-2
complexes that fail to interact with CFTR. Moreover, internalization of
CFTR in mutant cells is greatly reduced compared with wild type HeLa
cells. These results indicate that the AP-2 endocytic complex
selectively interacts with the conserved tyrosine-based internalization
signal in the carboxyl terminus of CFTR, YDSI. Furthermore, this
interaction is mediated by the µ2 subunit of AP-2 and mutations in
µ2 that block its interaction with YDSI inhibit the incorporation of
CFTR into the clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway.
