Fatty acylation of synaptotagmin in PC12 cells and synaptosomes
Abstract
Synaptotagmin I is localized to synaptic vesicles where it functions in the calcium-triggered release of neurotransmitters. Here we demonstrate that synaptotagmin I covalently incorporated [3H]palmitate after metabolic labelling of PC-12 cells and rat brain synaptosomes. Labeling was localized to a tryptic fragment that contains a cluster of cysteine residues adjacent to the molecule's single transmembrane anchor. Neutral hydroxylamine released the [3H]palmitate from this fragment and increased its electrophoretic mobility, demonstrating that acylation occurs at the membrane-proximal cysteine cluster. In addition, hydroxylamine-induced mobility shifts were also apparent for synaptotagmins II and III, suggesting that posttranslational palmitoylation via thioester bonds may be a general modification of all synaptotagmins.
