From the Tyrosinase is a type I membrane glycoprotein
essential for melanin synthesis. Mutations in tyrosinase lead to
albinism due, at least in part, to aberrant retention of the protein in
the endoplasmic reticulum and subsequent degradation by the
cytosolic ubiquitin-proteasomal pathway. A similar premature
degradative fate for wild type tyrosinase also occurs in amelanotic
melanoma cells. To understand critical cotranslational events, the
glycosylation and rate of translation of tyrosinase was studied in
normal melanocytes, melanoma cells, an in vitro cell-free
system, and semi-permeabilized cells. Site-directed mutagenesis
revealed that all seven N-linked consensus sites are
utilized in human tyrosinase. However, glycosylation at Asn-290
(Asn-Gly-Thr-Pro) was suppressed, particularly when translation
proceeded rapidly, producing a protein doublet with six or seven
N-linked core glycans. The inefficient glycosylation of
Asn-290, due to the presence of a proximal Pro, was enhanced in
melanoma cells possessing 2-3-fold faster (7.7-10.0 amino acids/s) protein translation rates compared with normal melanocytes (3.5 amino
acids/s). Slowing the translation rate with the protein synthesis
inhibitor cycloheximide increased the glycosylation efficiency in live
cells and in the cell-free system. Therefore, the rate of
protein translation can regulate the level of tyrosinase N-linked glycosylation, as well as other potential
cotranslational maturation events.
