Abstract

Trafficking protein particle complex 9 (TRAPPC9) is a protein subunit of the transport protein particle II (TRAPPII), which has been reported to be important in the trafficking of cargo from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi, and in intra‑Golgi and endosome‑to‑Golgi transport in yeast cells. In mammalian cells, TRAPPII has been shown to be important in Golgi vesicle tethering and intra‑Golgi transport. TRAPPC9 is considered to be a novel molecule capable of modulating the activation of nuclear factor‑κB (NF‑κB). Mutations in TRAPPC9 have been linked to a rare consanguineous hereditary form of mental retardation, as part of the NF‑κB pathways. In addition, TRAPPC9 has been reported to be involved in breast and colon cancer and liver diseases. The present review highlights the most recent publications on the structure, expression and function of TRAPPC9, and its association with various human diseases.

1. Introduction

Trafficking protein particle complex subunit 9 (TRAPPC9) is a protein subunit of the transport protein particle II (TRAPPII), a conserved trafficking molecule in organisms ranging from yeast to humans (1). TRAPPII shares similarity with complexes TRAPPI and TRAPPIII, in that all three complexes comprise six core proteins. However, TRAPPII is the only complex that contains TRAPPC9 in addition to two other TRAPPII-specific proteins (TRAPPC10 and TRAPPC2L) (2). The TRAPPII complex is a Rab1 guanine exchange factor known to bind coat protein I (COPI) and to serve as a tethering complex for COPI-coated vesicles to the early Golgi membrane. During TRAPPII complex formation, TRAPPC9 has been shown to interact with TRAPPC2 and TRAPPC10. In addition, TRAPPC9 has been reported to bind and interact with p150(Glued) at the trans-Golgi region (3). Studies have also suggested that mutations in TRAPPC9 are linked with a form of mental retardation (MR) associated with severe osseous deformities, including short stature and polydactylism (4). Clinical phenotypes associated with TRAPPC9 mutation have been linked with decreased activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). NF-κB is critical in the activation of genes associated with multiple pathways (5). In the present review, the possible roles and functions of TRAPPC9 in normal and disease processes are highlighted.

2. Structure

A survey of the human proteome by Schou et al (6) identified two protein domains in TRAPPC9: An ASPM, SPD-2, Hydin (ASH) domain at the C-terminal, and predicted α-solenoid-bearing stretches of multiple tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeats (Fig. 1). The TPR repeats have been identified in numerous proteins and may serve as binding elements in multiprotein complexes (7). The TPR repeats are also considered to regulate diverse biological processes, including organelle targeting and protein import, vesicle fusion and biomineralization (7-9). By contrast, the ASH domain is typically present in proteins associated with cilia, flagella, the centrosome and the Golgi complex (10).

3. Expression

In humans, TRAPPC9 (MIM no. 611966) is encoded by the gene located at locus 8q24.3 and contains 23 exons. TRAPPC9 is a conserved protein with sequence similarity of the human gene found in mouse (92%), chicken (87%) and zebrafish (85%) (9). TRAPPC9 has a conserved region (Trs120), first identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (12,13). Two variants have been identified in humans, one encoding a 1,148-amino acid protein and the second encoding a 1,246-amino acid protein. Compared to the human form, the mouse TRAPPC9 gene is located on 15_NC_000081.6 and five variants have been identified; the first variant encodes a 3,324-amino acid protein (NM_029640.2), the second encodes a 4,069-amino acid protein (NM_180662.2), the third encodes a 4,688-amino acid protein (NM_001164641.1), the fourth encodes a 3,127 amino acid protein (NM_001164642.1) and the fifth encodes a 2,833-amino acid protein (NM_001164643.1). TRAPPC9 is expressed at high levels in the developing cortical plate of the human embryonic brain (at 11.5 weeks gestation) and in the mouse brain during its adult phase according to in situ hybridization data (13). In mice, the expression of TRAPPC9 has been localized in neurons of the cerebral cortex, the hippo-campus and deep gray matter (13). Another study revealed that TRAPPC9 may also be expressed in mouse colon and small intestine tissues by conventional reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis (11). Further analysis of human tissues by Zhang et al (11) using northern blot analysis indicated a high expression of TRAPPC9 in muscle and the kidneys, and low expression in the brain, heart and placenta. TRAPPC9 was also shown to be weakly expressed in immune organs and cells, including the thymus, spleen and peripheral blood leukocytes.

4. Function

TRAPPC9 is part of the TRAPPII complex, which is important in intra-Golgi and endosomal trafficking in yeast (14,16). In mammals, TRAPPC9 is predominantly expressed at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites (17). All TRAPP complexes share six core subunits, namely trafficking protein particle complex subunits 20, 23, 31 and 33 (Trs20, 23, 31 and 33, respectively) and two copies of Bet3, in addition to Bet5 and the six core proteins. TRAPPII also contains four specific proteins, Trs65, Trs120 (TRAPPC9), Trs130 (TRAPPC10) and Tcal17, specific to TRAPPII (18,20). TRAPPC9 has been shown to be involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway by physically interacting and regulating NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) and inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) kinase subunit β (IKKβ; also known as IKK2) activation (21). A previous study indicated that TRAPPC9 may regulate enteric neuronal differentiation through the NF-κB signaling pathway (11).

5. Trafficking

Newly synthesized proteins must be transported from the ER to the Golgi complex via the secretory pathway (22). To ensure the directionality and accuracy of the protein transport process, the process is completed and regulated by intracellular membrane traffic complexes. In yeast and mammals, several of the mechanisms that have been suggested to underlie the secretory pathways within cells have been indicated through decades of research (23).

TRAPPC9 is part of the TRAPPII complex, which is expressed predominantly at the ER exit sites in mammals and has been suggested to function in intra-Golgi and endosome-to-Golgi transport (17) (Fig. 2). TRAPPC9 interacts with the TRAPPC10 subunit of TRAPPII, which is considered to function as a guanine exchange factor for Ypt/Rab GTPase by activating Rab1 (24). Site-directed mutagenesis of TRAPPC10 has indicated that it may be implicated in autophagy, and may be important in cytoplasmic-to-vacuole targeting and starving-induced autophagy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (24). Compared to TRAPPC10, mutation in TRAPPC9 reportedly causes the accumulation of aberrant membrane structures that resemble Berkeley bodies, which is the transport medium between the cytoplasm and vacuole within the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting pathway in yeast; this results in disruption to the trafficking of proteins that recycle through the early endosome (15). TRAPPII is enriched on coat protein I (COPI)-coated vesicles and interacts directly with γ1COP, a COPI coat adaptor subunit and the heptameric complex that forms the coat of COPI vesicles (23-25). Zong et al (3) demonstrated that TRAPPC9 may bind and interact with p150(Glued) at the same carboxyl terminal domain of p150(Glued) that binds Sec23 and Sec24. TRAPPC9 has also been shown to co-localize with the late Golgi marker Sec7p (15). Previous site-directed mutagenesis of TRAPPC9 resulted in defects in the localization of COPI. Furthermore, it had been suggested that TRAPPC9 may serve to uncouple p150(Glued) from the COPII coat and to relay the vesicle-dynactin interaction at the target membrane (3). The functions associated with TRAPPC9 are summarized in Table I (3,11,15,21,40-42).

6. NF-κB

The NF-κB family comprises structurally related transcription factors that regulate various biological processes, including stress responses, immunity and inflammation (28). The activation of NF-κB is mediated by ‘canonical’ and ‘non-canonical’ pathways (29). The canonical pathway is activated by multiple stimuli, including receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and other inflammatory mediators (30). In turn, this pathway is mediated by activation of the IKK complex, which regulates phosphorylation and proteolysis of the IκBα inhibitors and consequent nuclear translocation of the RelA and p50 transcriptional activators (30). By contrast, the non-canonical NF-κB activation pathway involves the activation of NIK to stimulate IKKα-induced phosphorylation, the proteolytic processing of NF-κB2 into p52, and the nuclear translocation of RelB (31). The most well-characterized non-canonical NF-κB signaling is a subset of TNF receptor superfamily members, including B-cell-activating factor belonging to the TNF family receptor, cluster of differentiation 40 and lymphotoxin β-receptor (32). TRAPPC9 has been shown to physically interact with NIK and IKKβ, but not IKKα or IKKγ (21). Therefore, TRAPPC9 is implicated in the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB activation pathways (Fig. 3). Of note, TRAPPC9 may potentiate the activation of NF-κB through increased phosphorylation of the IKK complex (21).

7. TRAPPC9 in human diseases

Central nervous system

Mutations in TRAPPC9 have been identified in patients with non-syndromic autosomal recessive MR (NS-ARMR) (5). One such mutation was identified in consanguineous family members and resulted in TRAPPC9 truncation; c.1422C>T. Mutation has also been identified in three consanguineous Israeli-Arab female adolescents and in a large consanguineous Pakistani family, where it was caused by the nonsense mutation R475X in exon 7 (13,19). In addition, the novel homozygous nonsense mutation c.2065G>T in exon 11 of the TRAPPC9 gene was identified in a Pakistani family genome by whole exome sequencing (33). Another mutation resulting in a frameshift and premature truncation (p.Leu772TrpfsX7) is caused by a homozygous 4-bp deletion, c.2311-2314 delTGTT, identified in an Iranian family (34). A homozygous nonsense mutation resulting in p.Arg570Ter (R570 X) due to c.1708C>T transcription has been identified in three Tunisian brothers from a consanguineous family (35). All patients with NS-ARMR exhibit a similar clinical MR phenotype ranging from moderate to severe. The clinical phenotype of patients with mutation in the TRAPPC9 gene is moderate to severe MR, including variable postnatal microcephaly. Mild facial dysmorphism and truncal obesity have also been reported in Tunisian brothers, whereas no facial dysmorphism has been observed in Pakistani, Israeli-Arab or Iranian patients (13,5,35). Phenotypes associated with TRAPPC9 mutations have been consistently associated with postnatal microcephaly, speech delay, neuroradiological abnormality of the cerebral white matter, corpus callosum and cerebellum, peculiar facial appearance, obesity and hypotonia (36,37). Magnetic resonance imaging in affected individuals has revealed reduced cerebral white matter volume with sulcal enlargement, thinning of the corpus callosum and mild cerebellar volume loss. These phenotypes have been linked with the downregulated activation of NF-κB, and it is possible that the trafficking function of TRAPPC9 may also be affected. Human mutations associated with TRAPPC9 have been summarized in Table II (13,33,37,36).

Liver disease

A previous study indicated that certain genetic loci are associated with features of histological severity in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in a cohort of Hispanic boys (38). In this study, 234 Hispanic boys (aged 2-17 years) with available clinical, laboratory and histological data enrolled in the Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Clinical Research Network were included in the analysis of 624,297 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The median age and body mass index z-score were 12.0 years [interquartile range (IQR), 11.0-14.0] and 2.4 (IQR, 2.1-2.6), respectively. Notably, the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score (1-4, vs. 5-8) was associated with SNP rs11166927 on chromosome 8 in the TRAPPC9 region (P=8.7-07) (38).

Breast/colon cancer

Zhang et al (39) investigated the potential regulatory mechanisms underlying the constitutive and inducible activation of NF-κB in cancer as they remain to be fully elucidated. The study investigated whether a novel NIK- and IKK2-binding protein (NIBP/TRAPPC9) is required for maintaining the malignancy of cancer cells in an NF-κB-dependent manner by polymerase chain reaction analysis of a human cancer survey tissue-scan cDNA array, immunostaining of a human frozen tumor tissue array and immunoblotting of a high-density reverse-phase cancer protein lysate array. The study indicated that TRAPPC9 was extensively expressed in the majority of tumor tissues, particularly in breast and colon cancer. More specifically, TRAPPC9 appeared to promote tumorigenesis via NF-κB signaling in breast MDA-MB-231 and colon HCT116 cancer cells. The downregulation of TRAPPC9 significantly inhibited the growth/proliferation, invasion/migration, colony formation and xenograft tumorigenesis of the breast and colon cancers cells (39).

8. Concluding remarks

TRAPPC9 is a conserved protein. The protein has been found to be expressed in different human tissues and is implicated in several intracellular protein trafficking processes. In addition, TRAPPC9 has been observed to be important in NF-κB signaling by directly binding and regulating NIK and IKKβ; via these interactions, TRAPPC9 has been implicated in the canonical and non-canonical NF-κB activation pathways. TRAPPC9 mutation may also be essential in the pathogenesis of a number of human diseases. Collectively these data highlight the importance of understanding the normal physiological roles of TRAPPC9 in NF-κB-mediated signaling and in trafficking, as this can assist in improving our understanding of the role of TRAPPC9 in different disease processes.
