Abstract
Cellular trafficking between organelles is typically assured by short motifs that contact carrier proteins to transport them to their destination. The ubiquitin E3 ligase RING finger protein 13 (RNF13), a regulator of proliferation, apoptosis and protein trafficking, localizes to endolysosomal compartments through the binding of a dileucine motif to clathrin adaptor protein complex AP-3. Mutations within this motif reduce the ability of RNF13 to interact with AP-3. Here, our study shows the discovery of a glutamine-based motif that resembles a tyrosine-based motif within the C-terminal region of RNF13 that binds to the clathrin adaptor protein complex AP-1, notably without a functional interaction with AP-3. Using biochemical, molecular and cellular approaches in HeLa cells, our study demonstrates that a RNF13 dileucine variant uses an AP-1-dependent pathway to be exported from the Golgi towards the endosomal compartment. Overall, this study provides mechanistic insights into the alternate route used by this variant of the dileucine sorting motif of RNF13.
