Expression Pattern

Tissue specificity: ubiquitous. The highest expression is observed in testis, liver, kidney, brain, heart and lung. Expressed at lower levels in stomach, small intestine and skeletal muscle, where it is detected at the sarcolemma. (view the GNF Gene Expression Atlas (GEA) U74A 113190_at below)

In the mouse brain, dysbindin is found primarily in axon bundles and especially in certain axon terminals, notably mossy fiber synaptic terminals in the cerebellum and hippocampus (Benson, et al (2001)). Bray, et al found that the allelic expression differences exceeded 50% in the brain, which suggests that cis-acting variation in gene expression occurs. In the mouse cerebellum, dysbindin immunoreactivity is expressed at high levels in a subset of mossy fiber synaptic glomeruli in the granular layer. Lower levels of dysbindin immunoreactivity are also detected in Purkinje cell dendrites. In the cerebellar vermis, dysbindin-immunoreactive glomeruli are restricted to an array of parasagittal stripes that bears a consistent relationship to Purkinje cell parasagittal band boundaries as defined by the expression of the respiratory isoenzyme zebrin II/aldolase c (Sillitoe, et al).

FUNCTION

Ontology

a) Biological process: visual perception, muscle development.
b) Plays a role in the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles such as platelet dense granule and melanosomes (view diagram of BLOC-1 pathway here).

Location

Mostly cytoplasmic. Interaction with the DPC complex suggests that dysbindin may associated with plasma membrane (Benson, et al (2001)). Dysbindin-1 is likely a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein and translocated to the nucleus upon treatment with leptomycin B, an inhibitor of exportin-1/CRM1-mediated nuclear export. Dysbindin-1 harbors a functional nuclear export signal necessary for its nuclear export, and the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of dysbindin-1 affects its regulation of synapsin I expression (Fei, et al).

Interaction

Binds to alpha and beta dystrobrevins that are components of the dystrophin-associated protein complex (DPC) (Benson, et al(2001); Li, et al (2003)) (view diagram of DPC and BLOC-1 interaction here). Nazarian, et al demonstrated direct interaction involving coiled-coil-forming regions in both dysbindin and the dystrobrevins. However, recombinant proteins bearing the coiled-coil-forming regions of the dystrobrevins failed to bind endogenous BLOC-1 from HeLa cells or mouse brain or muscle, suggesting that dysbindin assembled into BLOC-1 is not a physiological binding partner of the dystrobrevins. Benson, et al (2004) showed that dysbindin binds to a novel 413-kDa protein, myospryn, which is expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle. The C terminus of myospryn contains BBC, FN3, and SPRY domains in a configuration reminiscent of the tripartite motif protein family, as well as the dysbindin-binding site and a region mediating self-association. Desmin binds to myospryn,dysbindin and pallidin. The N-terminal 1-103 fragment of desmin binds to myospryn carboxyl terminus through the SPRY domain (Kouloumenta, et al ). Yeast two-hybrid screening identified the direct interaction of a novel RING finger protein RNF151 and dysbindin, which was confirmed by the co-immunoprecipitation of the proteins and by their co-localization in intact cells, suggesting a role in acrosome formation (Nian, et al ). Yin, et al suggested that the acidic domain of dysbindin and its paralogs in humans may function to recruit casein kinase-1 isoforms to protein complexes involved in multiple biological functions. In the yeast two-hybrid system, TRIM32 binds and ubiquitinates dysbindin (Locke, et al ). A specific interaction between the domains of DISC1 (316-597) and dysbindin (82-173) (Ottis, et al ).

Dysbindin interacts with pallidin, muted and snapin (Li, et al (2003); Starcevic, et al). Dysbindin is a subunit of the biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 (BLOC-1), which is composed of the products of Dtnbp1 and seven other HPS genes, mu, pa, cno, rp, Snapap, Blos1, Blos2 (Ciciotte, et al; Falcon-Perez , et al; Li, et al (2003); Moriyama, et al; Starcevic, et al) (view diagram of BLOC-1 complex here). Within BLOC-1, the same 69-residue region of dysbindin that is sufficient for dystrobrevin binding in vitro also contains the binding sites for pallidin and snapin, and at least part of the muted-binding interface (Nazarian, et al). Tissue fractionation of whole mouse brains and human hippocampal formations revealed that both dysbindin-1 and snapin are concentrated in tissue enriched in synaptic vesicle membranes and less commonly in postsynaptic densities. It is not detected in presynaptic tissue fractions lacking synaptic vesicles (Talbot, et al (2006) ).

BLOC-1 is thought to be involved in endosomal transport. Comparative proteomics of clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) have identified seven components of BLOC-1 (Borner, et al). BLOC-1 and AP-3 protein complexes affect the targeting of SNARE and non-SNARE AP-3 cargoes and suggest a function of the BLOC-1 complex in membrane protein sorting (Salazar, et al). BLOC-1 interacts physically and functionally with AP-3 to facilitate the trafficking of a known AP-3 cargo, CD63, and of tyrosinase-related protein 1 (Tyrp1). BLOC-1 also interacts with BLOC-2 to facilitate Tyrp1 trafficking by a mechanism apparently independent of AP-3 function. Both BLOC-1 and -2 localize mainly to early endosome-associated tubules as determined by immunoelectron microscopy (Di Pietro, et al). BLOC-1-deficient melanocytes accumulate the melanosomal protein Tyrp1, but not other melanosomal proteins, in endosomal vacuoles and the cell surface due to failed biosynthetic transit from early endosomes to melanosomes and consequent increased endocytic flux. Melanocytes from HPS model mice lacking a different protein complex, BLOC-2, accumulate Tyrp1 in distinct downstream endosomal intermediates, suggesting that BLOC-1 and BLOC-2 act sequentially in the same pathway. By contrast, intracellular Tyrp1 is correctly targeted to melanosomes in melanocytes lacking another HPS-associated protein complex, AP-3 (Setty, et al). Dysbindin formed a complex with the AP-3 complex through the direct binding to its mu subunit (Taneichi-Kuroda, et al).

Overexpression of dysbindin induced the expression of two pre-synaptic proteins, SNAP25 and synapsin I, and increased extracellular basal glutamate levels and release of glutamate evoked by high potassium. Conversely, knockdown of endogenous dysbindin protein by small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in the reduction of pre-synaptic protein expression and glutamate release, suggesting that dysbindin might influence exocytotic glutamate release via upregulation of the molecules in pre-synaptic machinery (Numakawa, et al). Munc18-1 was co-immunoprecipitated with dysbindin from rat brain lysate, and directly interacted with dysbindin in vitro. In primary cultured rat hippocampal neurons, a part of dysbindin was co-localized with Munc18-1 at pre-synaptic terminals (Hikita, et al). In situ hybridization analysis showed the mRNA expression of dysbindin in the mouse substantia nigra. Suppression of dysbindin expression in PC12 cells resulted in an increase of the expression of SNAP25, and increased the release of dopamine. On the other hand, up-regulation of dysbindin expression in PC12 cells showed a tendency to decrease the expression of SNAP25. These suggest that dysbindin might regulate the dopamine release in dopaminergic cells via modulation of the expression of SNAP25 (Kumamoto, et al).

DTNBP1 siRNA increased cell surface DRD2 and blocked dopamine-induced DRD2 internalization. MUTED siRNA produced similar effects. In contrast, decreased dysbindin did not change dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) levels, or its basal or dopamine-induced internalization (Iizuka, et al). Dysbindin co-immunoprecipitated with GASP-1 (or GPRASP-1), a cytoplasmic protein shown previously to modulate lysosomal trafficking of D2 dopamine and delta opioid receptors by direct interaction (Marley, et al).

GST pull-down from human neuroblastoma lysates showed an association of dysbindin-1 with the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) complex. The DNA-PK complex interacts only with splice isoforms A and B, but not with C which lacks exons 1-6. Isoforms A and B localized in nucleus, where the kinase complex exist, whereas the isoform C was found exclusively in cytosol. Phosphorylation assay shows that the DNA-PK complex phosphorylated dysbindin-1 isoforms A and B, suggesting that DNA-PK regulates the dysbindin-1 isoforms A and B by phosphorylation in nucleus (Oyama, et al).

In the pathogeneisis of dysbindin-related schizophrenia, neurodevelopmenal defects have been noted. dysbindin-1, WAVE2 and Abi-1 form a ternary complex, and dysbindin-1 promotes the binding of WAVE2 to Abi-1. It is suggested that dysbindin-1 at the postsynapse regulates dendritic spine morphogenesis through the interaction with WAVE2 and Abi-1 (Ito, et al). In addition, necdin is a binding partner of dysbindin-1 by using a yeast two-hybrid screen. Dysbindin-1 recruits necdin to the cytoplasm, thereby attenuating the repressive effects of necdin on p53 transcriptional activity. Knockdown of dysbindin-1, like knockdown of p53, greatly decreases the expressions of the p53 target genes coronin 1b and rab13, which are required for neurite outgrowth (Ma, et al).

Dysbindin and DISC1 share common PPIs suggesting they may affect common biological processes and that the function of schizophrenia risk genes may converge (Camargo, et al). A direct interaction of soluble and insoluble DISC1 protein with dysbindin protein demonstrates convergence of so far considered independent mental disease genes by direct molecular interaction (Ottis, et al). Guo, et al constructed a DTNBP1 interactome. The link between dysbindin and DISC1 is suggested by the interactions with members of the exocyst, dynactin and chaperonin containing T-complex protein complexes (Mead, et al).

Besides BLOC-1 and dystrophin-associated protein complex, several molecules in the DTNBP1 network likely provide insight into the role of DTNBP1 in biological systems: retinoic acid, beta-estradiol, calmodulin and tumour necrosis factor.

Pathway

Nguyen, et al found that the greatest percentages of immature melanosomes were observed in the BLOC-1 mutants pa and cno, which suggests the maturation of melanosome in sdy is also likely blocked between the multivesicular body stage and stage I (view diagram of melanosome blockage here). Melanosome maturation requires at least two cargo transport pathways directly from early endosomes to melanosomes, one mediated by AP-3 and another by BLOC-1 and BLOC-2 (Setty, et al).

(Numbering of cDNA sequence is based on the start codon of RefSeq NM_025772.)

Effect

Li, et al found that although the mutant transcripts were detected in multiple tissues, the in-frame mutation causes the loss of expression of dysbindin. The loss of dysbindin destabilizes other BLOC-1 members, such as pallidin, muted, cno. Likewise, the predicted mutant protein is expected to cause the deletion of most of the coiled-coil region. The mutant protein is over-expressed in transfected cells, where it binds to pallidin and muted weakly, but not beta-dystrobrevin.






PHENOTYPE

Mutation in the Dtnbp1 gene is the cause of sandy mutant (Li, et al; Swank, et al), a mouse model of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 7 (HPS-7, OMIM 607145). The sdy allele arose from DBA/2J. The strain is described in more detail in JAX Mice database (DBA/2J-Dtnbp1sdy/J). In brief, mutations at this locus result in pigmentation anomalies of the coat and eye as well as prolonged bleeding times due to platelet abnormalities. Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) melanosomes of the BLOC-1 mutants Hps7/sdy, mu, cno are severely reduced in number. Also, unusual melanosomes, perhaps in the process of degradation, are present. Choroidal melanosomes of all three mutants are smaller, are often incompletely melanized and have irregular edges. Preliminary behavioral tests of the sdy mice were negative (Li, et al). In sdy brains, the ratios of DA to HVA, which is an index of DA turnover, were higher in the cortex and the hippocampus, but not in the hypothalamus, suggesting a possible useful candidate animal for studying the pathogenic mechanism of schizophrenia (Murotani, et al).

As DTNBP1 is a hallmark in the susceptibility gene of schizophrenia, the null mutation of Dtnbp1 in sandy mice is informative to explore its role in the development of schizophrenic symptoms in sdy mice. Chen, et al first described the abnormal synaptic ultrastructures and the impaired glutamatergic transmission in the hippocampal formation, which may lead to the schizophrenia-like symptoms in sdy mice (Feng, et al (2008)). The abnormal behaviors mimicking schizophrenia in sdy mice were reproduced in several other groups (Hattori, et al (2008); Takao, et al (2008); Bhardwaj, et al (2009); Cox, et al (2009)), supporting that the sdy mutant is an appropriate model of schizophrenia.

To study the contribution of dysbindin to schizophrenia, defects in synaptic transmission, postsynaptic modulation and neurodevelopment have been noted in the sdy mice. Several neurotransmitters, such as glutamate, dopamine, GABA, serotonin, in the cerebral cortex, midbrain, hippocampus in sdy mice have been shown abnormal release patterns (Chen, et al; Ji, et al; Kumamoto, et al; Murotani, et al; Nagai, et al). Postsynaptic receptors such as D2R, NR2A are increased in sdy brain (Iizuka, et al; Ji, et al; Tang, et al). In contrast to the role of dysbindin-1 in glutamatergic transmission, gamma-band abnormalities in schizophrenia are most often attributed to disrupted inhibition and reductions in parvalbumin-positive interneuron (PV cell) activity. PV cell immunoreactivity was reduced in sdy mice(Carlson, et al). In addition, dysbindin regulates dendritic spine morphogenesis (Ito, et al), neurite outgrowth (Ghiani, et al; Ma, et al), neuronal progenitor cell differentiation in the adult hippocampal neurogenesis (Nihonmatsu-Kikuchi, et al). Serotonin and dopamine, two major neuromodulators implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia, can potentiate mossy fiber synaptic transmission probably via an increase in cAMP levels (Kobayashi, et al).

Interestingly, dysbindin-1 is up-regulated in the dystrophin-deficient muscle of a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, the mdx mutant (Benson, et al (2001)). Moreover, Sillitoe, et al reported that there is a dramatic increase of the number of dysbindin-immunoreactive glomeruli in the posterior cerebellar vermis in the mdx mutant. Abnormal synaptic organization in the cerebellum may contribute to the neurological problems associated with muscular dystrophy and schizophrenia.
