The appropriate expression and localization of cell surface cell adhesion molecules must be tightly regulated for optimal synaptic growth and function. How neuronal plasma membrane proteins, including cell adhesion molecules, cycle between early endosomes and the plasma membrane is poorly understood. Here we show that the homolog of the chromatin remodeling enzymes CHD7 and CHD8, Kismet, represses the synaptic levels of several cell adhesion molecules. Neuroligins 1 and 3 and the integrins αPS2 and βPS are increased at mutant synapses but Kismet only directly regulates transcription of . Kismet may therefore regulate synaptic CAMs indirectly by activating transcription of gene products that promote intracellular vesicle trafficking including () and/or . Knock down of EndoB in all tissues or neurons increases synaptic FasII while knock down of EndoB in mutants does not produce an additive increase in FasII. In contrast, neuronal expression of Rab11, which is deficient in mutants, leads to a further increase in synaptic FasII in mutants. These data support the hypothesis that Kis influences the synaptic localization of FasII by promoting intracellular vesicle trafficking through the early endosome.
细胞表面细胞粘附分子的适当表达和定位必须受到严格调控,以实现最佳的突触生长和功能。包括细胞粘附分子在内的神经元质膜蛋白如何在早期内体和质膜之间循环,目前了解甚少。在这里,我们表明染色质重塑酶CHD7和CHD8的同源物Kismet抑制了几种细胞粘附分子的突触水平。Neuroligins 1和3以及整合素αPS2和βPS在突变突触处增加,但Kismet仅直接调节……的转录。因此,Kismet可能通过激活促进细胞内囊泡运输的基因产物的转录来间接调节突触细胞粘附分子,包括……和/或……。在所有组织或神经元中敲低EndoB会增加突触FasII,而在突变体中敲低EndoB不会使FasII产生额外增加。相反,Rab11在突变体中缺乏,其在神经元中的表达会导致突变体中突触FasII进一步增加。这些数据支持了这样的假设,即Kis通过促进通过早期内体的细胞内囊泡运输来影响FasII的突触定位。
