Assembly and trafficking of neurotransmitter receptors are processes contingent upon interactions between intracellular chaperone systems and discrete determinants in the receptor proteins. Kainate receptor subunits, which form ionotropic glutamate receptors with diverse roles in the central nervous system, contain a variety of trafficking determinants that promote either membrane expression or intracellular sequestration. In this report, we identify the coatomer protein complex I (COPI) vesicle coat as a critical mechanism for retention of the kainate receptor subunit KA2 in the endoplasmic reticulum. COPI subunits immunoprecipitated with KA2 subunits from both cerebellum and COS-7 cells, and beta-COP protein interacted directly with immobilized KA2 peptides containing the arginine-rich retention/retrieval determinant. Association between COPI proteins and KA2 subunits was significantly reduced upon alanine substitution of this signal in the cytoplasmic tail of KA2. Temperature-sensitive degradation of COPI complex proteins was correlated with an increase in plasma membrane localization of the homologous KA2 receptor. Assembly of heteromeric GluR6a/KA2 receptors markedly reduced association of KA2 and COPI. Finally, the reduction in COPI binding was correlated with an increased association with 14-3-3 proteins, which mediate forward trafficking of other integral signaling proteins. These interactions therefore represent a critical early checkpoint for biosynthesis of functional KARs.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides

D000595 Amino Acid Sequence The order of amino acids as they occur in a polypeptide chain. This is referred to as the primary structure of proteins. It is of fundamental importance in determining PROTEIN CONFORMATION.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D014162 Transfection The uptake of naked or purified DNA by CELLS, usually meaning the process as it occurs in eukaryotic cells. It is analogous to bacterial transformation (TRANSFORMATION, BACTERIAL) and both are routinely employed in GENE TRANSFER TECHNIQUES. Transfections

D017434 Protein Structure, Tertiary The level of protein structure in which combinations of secondary protein structures (ALPHA HELICES; BETA SHEETS; loop regions, and AMINO ACID MOTIFS) pack together to form folded shapes. Disulfide bridges between cysteines in two different parts of the polypeptide chain along with other interactions between the chains play a role in the formation and stabilization of tertiary structure.
