Short amino acid sequences in the cytosolic domains of
transmembrane proteins are recognized by specialized adapter proteins which are part of coated vesicles utilized to transport membrane proteins between the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and the plasma membrane
(forward and backward). Previously, we and others
reported that the membrane-proximal tyrosine residues Y712 (human
immunodeficiency virus [HIV]) and Y721 (simian immunodeficiency virus
[SIV]) in the envelope glycoprotein (Env) of the primate lentiviruses
are crucial for the association of Env with clathrin-associated
adapter complex AP-2. The same tyrosine-based endocytosis
motifs in the cytosolic domains (EnvCD) of transmembrane gp41 of HIV
type 1 (HIV-1) and SIV, respectively, were also shown to
modulate the interaction with TGN- and endosome-based
clathrin-associated complex AP-1. Our findings suggested
that EnvCD binding to AP-1, unlike the association of EnvCD with AP-2,
is dependent largely on residues other than Y712 and Y721.
Here, we tested if motifs downstream of Y712 affect HIV-1
EnvCD-AP-1 binding and Env trafficking. Mutational analysis
revealed that the C-terminal leucine-based motif in Env was
crucial for the recruitment of AP-1 in vitro and in Env-expressing cells. In addition to affecting Env-AP-1 association, mutations at the
C terminus of Env also altered the subcellular localization of
Env, suggesting that proper post-Golgi routing of Env depends on
its recruitment of AP-1. Finally, the C-terminal dileucine was shown to assist the membrane-proximal Y712 motif in restricting the
cell surface expression of Env.
