Synaptotagmin I (Syt I), an evolutionarily
conserved integral membrane protein of synaptic vesicles, is now known
to regulate Ca2+-dependent
neurotransmitter release. Syt I protein should undergo several
post-translational modifications before maturation and subsequent
functioning on synaptic vesicles (e.g.
N-glycosylation and fatty acylation in vertebrate Syt I),
because the apparent molecular weight of Syt I on synaptic vesicles
(mature form, 65,000) was much higher than the calculated molecular
weight (47,400) predicted from the cDNA sequences both in
vertebrates and invertebrates. Common post-translational
modification(s) of Syt I conserved across phylogeny, however, have
never been elucidated. In the present study, I discovered that
dithreonine residues (Thr-15 and Thr-16) at the intravesicular domain
of mouse Syt I are post-translationally modified by a complex form of
O-linked sugar (i.e. the addition of sialic
acids) in PC12 cells and that the O-glycosylation of Syt
I in COS-7 cells depends on the coexpression of vesicle-associated membrane protein-2 (VAMP-2)/synaptobrevin. I also showed that a
transmembrane domain of Syt I directly interacts with isolated VAMP-2,
but not VAMP-2, in the heterotrimeric SNARE (SNAP
receptor) complex (vesicle SNARE, VAMP-2, and two target
SNAREs, syntaxin IA and SNAP-25). Since di-Thr or di-Ser residues are
often found at the intravesicular domain of invertebrate Syt I, and
VAMP-dependent O-glycosylation was also
observed in squid Syt expressed in COS-7 cells, I propose that
VAMP-dependent O-glycosylation of Syt I is a
common modification during evolution and may have important role(s) in
synaptic vesicle trafficking.
