1 Abstract

2 Endocytic cargos are transported to recycling endosomes (RE) but how these sorting

3 platforms are generated is not well understood. Here we describe our biochemical and

4 live imaging studies of the conserved MON2-DOPEY complex in RE formation.

5 MON2 mainly co-localized with RE marker RAB4B in peripheral dots and perinuclear

6 region. The peripheral RE approached, interacted with, and separated from sorting

7 nexin 3 (SNX3)-positive early endosomes (EE). Membrane-bound DOPEY2 was

8 recruited to RE dependent upon MON2 expression, and showed binding abilities to 9 kinesin and dynein/dynactinFor motor Peer proteins. Review MON2-knockout impaired segregation of 10 RE from EE and led to a decreased tubular recycling endosomal network, whereas RE

11 was accumulated at perinuclear regions in DOPEY2-knockout cells. MON2 depletion

12 also impaired intracellular transferrin receptor recycling, as well as retrograde transport

13 of Wntless during its passage through RE before delivery from EE to the Golgi.

14 Together, these data suggest that the MON2 drives separation of RE from EE and is

15 required for efficient transport of endocytic cargo molecules.

1 Introduction

2 A balance between synthesis and degradation of proteins is required to maintain

3 the homeostasis of cellular processes (Cullen and Steinberg, 2018). The endosomal

4 system contributes to this balance through vesicular sorting of proteins for degradation

5 and recycling to various membrane compartments. Mammalian cells contain a complex

6 set of endosomal compartments, including early endosomes (EE), late endosomes (LE),

7 recycling endosomes (RE), and lysosomes (Klumperman and Raposo, 2014). The EE

8 are the first carrier vesicles into which plasma membrane (PM) proteins and lipids enter 9 when internalized (JovicFor et al. ,Peer 2010). EE undergoReview structural and functional maturation 10 to form either LE (Scott et al., 2014), whose cargos are transported to lysosomes for

11 degradation or RE, whose cargos are sorted and transported back to the PM, or the

12 Golgi (Taguchi, 2013). Although RE play pivotal roles in maintaining cellular

13 homeostasis, the mechanism for how they regulate protein and lipid sorting is not well

14 understood.

15 RE are mainly localized at the perinuclear regions as transient vesicular/tubular

16 structures as well as peripheral dot-like puncta (Grant and Donaldson, 2009; Maxfield

17 and McGraw, 2004). The formation and maintenance of endosomal compartments

18 involve a host of different Rab GTPases (Pfeffer, 2013; Pfeffer, 2017) whose GTP-

19 bound state at membranes is required for vesicle formation from the donor or vesicle

20 fusion with the acceptor. RAB4 is found at tubular structures of EE or RE (D'Souza et

21 al., 2014; de Wit et al., 2001; Perrin et al., 2013; Sonnichsen et al., 2000), while RAB11

22 is mainly enriched in RE (Green et al., 1997; Ullrich et al., 1996). To date, several

23 multiprotein complexes have been reported that cooperate to generate and move tubules

24 from endosomes (Gautreau et al., 2014). Rab GTPases and kinesin provide the

25 mechanical force for tubularization and fission of tubular/vesicular structures from the

26 EE membrane (Delevoye et al., 2014; Etoh and Fukuda, 2019; Shakya et al., 2018).

27 Most kinesins mediate transport toward the plus-ends of microtubules (Hirokawa et al.,

28 2009). However, RE are clustered around the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC)

3

1 (Maxfield and McGraw, 2004) located at the minus-ends of microtubules (Martin and

2 Akhmanova, 2018). Thus, it is likely that coordination of other factors and motor

3 proteins regulates RE tubular network and movement.

4 Yeast Mon2 is a peripheral membrane protein in the trans-Golgi network (TGN)

5 (Efe et al., 2005) that, with its cytosolic binding partner, Dop1, is implicated in

6 -to-Golgi transport (Gillingham et al., 2006). We recently described a role

7 for yeast Dop1 in retrograde transport from the TGN to the Golgi (Zhao et al., 2019).

8 The yeast TGN is assumed to be functionally equivalent to mammalian EE and RE 9 (Day et al., 2018). Mon2For and PeerDop1 has beenReview highly conserved through evolution. In 10 metazoans, there are two Dop1 orthologues, named DOPEY1 and DOPEY2 (Barbosa

11 et al., 2010; Mahajan et al., 2019; McGough et al., 2018). Even DOPEY1 is monomer

12 and DOPEY2 is self-interacted, both DOPEY1 and DOPEY2 were reported to interact

13 with mammalian MON2 (Mahajan et al., 2019; McGough et al., 2018). DOPEY1

14 interacts with the KLC2, the light chain of kinesin-1 motor protein (Mahajan et al.,

15 2019), suggesting that MON2-DOPEY complex mediates vesicular/tubular movement.

16 Retrograde transport of Wntless (Wls), which is a critical cargo receptor for Wnt

17 secretion (Banziger et al., 2006), from EE to the Golgi requires mammalian MON2-

18 DOPEY2 (McGough et al., 2018). After internalization of Wls from the PM, it is

19 transported to EE, and then transported to the Golgi (Harterink et al., 2011; Port et al.,

20 2008). In , Wls is transported from RE to the Golgi (Bai and

21 Grant, 2015). However, it remains unclear whether Wls is directly transported from EE

22 to the Golgi or through RE in mammalian cells. It is because RE are mainly localized

23 at the perinuclear Golgi regions as transient vesicular/tubular structures as well as

24 peripheral dot-like puncta (Grant and Donaldson, 2009; Maxfield and McGraw, 2004).

25 Recent findings suggest that both the TGN and RE are functionally overlapping and RE

26 attach to the trans-side of Golgi stacks under nocodazole treatment (Fujii et al., 2020).

27 It is still not clear how MON2-DOPEY proteins are involved in Wls retrograde

28 trafficking.

1 Here, we show that the MON2 mainly localizes at RE in human embryonic kidney

2 293 (HEK293) cells. Membrane-bound DOPEY proteins were recruited to RE

3 dependent upon MON2 expression. MON2 knockout (MON2-KO) impaired the

4 segregation of RE from EE. Wls passed through RE dependent upon MON2 for

5 transport to the Golgi. These findings suggest that the MON2-DOPEY complex

6 regulates cargo transport by regulating RE movement. 7

3 HEK293 cells were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM)

4 supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells stably expressing 3×FLAG-tagged

5 DOPEY1 or DOPEY2 were obtained by transfection of pME-Hyg-DOPEY1-3FLAG

6 or pME-Hyg-DOPEY2-3FLAG and selection with hygromycin B (400 μg/ml).

7 Transfection of DNA constructs was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo

8 Fisher, Waltham, MA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To generate 9 MON2, DOPEY1, DOPEY2For Peer and VPS35 Review gene KO cell lines, HEK293 cells were 10 transiently transfected with pX330-EGFP plasmids containing the target sequences.

11 After 48 h, cells with EGFP were sorted by an S3e Cell Sorter (Bio-Rad Laboratories,

12 Hercules, CA). The collected cells were cultured for more than 10 days and subjected

13 to limiting dilution to obtain clonal KO cells. Genomic DNA was extracted from

14 individual clones and subjected to PCR. Clones with no wild-type (WT) allele were

15 selected, and the DNA sequences around the KO targets were analyzed. The DNA

16 sequences of the individual KO cell lines are listed in Supplemental Table. S1.

11 The plasmids for target gene KO were constructed as previously described (Liu et

12 al., 2018). Human genes were amplified from cDNAs isolated from HEK293 or HeLa

13 cells. Alternatively, cDNAs from Ultimate™ ORF LITE clones (Thermo Fisher) were

14 used as templates. In-fusion PCR cloning or restriction enzyme digestion followed by

15 ligation was used for plasmid construction. Full-length DOPEY1 was ligated into the

16 XhoI/MluI site of pME-Hyg-3FLAG to generate pME-Hyg-DOPEY1-3FLAG. pME-

17 Hyg-DOPEY2-3FLAG was obtained by in-fusion cloning of full-length DOPEY2 into

16 Confocal microscopy

17 For fixed samples, glass-bottom dishes (#D35-10-1-N; Cellvis, Mountain View,

18 CA) or sterile glass coverslips in culture dishes were coated with 0.1% gelatin (#G7041;

19 Sigma-Aldrich) for 15 min at room temperature, followed by complete removal of

20 excess gelatin. After transfection, cells were seeded into 24-well plates with sterile glass

21 coverslips or into glass-bottom dishes. When the cell density reached about 60%

22 confluence, the cells were fixed with −20°C cold methanol as described previously

23 (Bhattacharyya et al., 2010). Alternatively, the cells were fixed with 4%

24 paraformaldehyde solution (#P0099; Beyotime, Shanghai, China) at room temperature

25 for 20 min, permeabilized with Saponin (#P0095; Beyotime) for 10 min, and blocked

26 with blocking buffer (#P0260; Beyotime) for 1 h at room temperature. The cells were

27 then incubated with primary antibodies diluted in QuickBlock™ Primary Antibody

28 Dilution Buffer (#P0262; Beyotime) overnight at 4°C. After five gentle washes with

8

1 phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), the cells were incubated with an Alexa Fluor-

2 conjugated secondary antibody (Thermo Fisher) at room temperature for 1 h. Finally,

3 the cells were washed gently eight times with PBS and mounted on slides in Antifade

4 Mounting Medium (#P0126; Beyotime) with or without Hoechst 33258 dye. Images

5 were obtained with a Nikon Eclipse Ti-E inverted confocal microscope equipped with

6 a Plan Apo 100×/1.4 NA oil objective and a C2si scan head camera. NIS-Element AR

7 software (Nikon, Tokyo, Japan) was used to operate the microscope. MCCs were

8 calculated using the JACoP plugin of ImageJ (https://imagej.nih.gov/ij/). We first set 9 the appropriate thresholdFor value Peer of the pixels Review for both color channels (e.g., Red vs Green). 10 The M1 coefficient represented the ratio of the “sum of pixels from the former channel

11 (Red) that colocalizes with the latter channel (Green)” to the “total intensity of pixels

12 in the former channel (Red)”. M2 measured the opposite channel to M1.

13

14 Live-cell microscopy

15 Cells were cultured and replated onto glass-bottom dishes precoated with 0.1%

16 gelatin. When the cell density reached about 60% confluence, the cells were imaged in

17 pre-warmed FluoroBrite™ DMEM (#A1896701; Thermo Fisher) supplemented with

18 10% fetal bovine serum. Images were obtained with a Leica SP8 (Wetzlar, Germany)

19 scanning confocal microscope equipped with a Plan Apo 60×/1.4 NA oil objective and

20 solid-state lasers. We set the frame size to 512512 pixels, the digital zoom to 1.5–2.5 21 for one or two cells, and the pinhole to 1.8 Airy units with bidirectional mode for

22 scanning. The highest sensitivity detector was used for the weaker fluorescence of

23 TagRFP-MON2. All live image videos can be downloaded from:

8 Cell fractionation 9 Cells stably expressingFor Peer DOPEY1-3FLAG Review or DOPEY2-3FLAG (1107) were 10 placed in 1 ml of hypotonic buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 1 mM Dithiothreitol, 0.2

11 mM MgCl2, 5 mM KCl, protein inhibitor cocktail, 1 mM PMSF), allowed to swell on 12 ice for 5 min, and lysed by 20 strokes in a Dounce homogenizer. The nuclei were

13 removed from the homogenate by centrifugation at 1000×g for 15 min at 4°C. Sucrose

14 was added to the supernatant to a final concentration of 0.25 M, followed by

15 centrifugation at 10,000×g for 1 h at 4°C. The resulting pellet (P10) containing the PM

16 and membrane was resuspended in 1 ml of lysis buffer (50 mM

17 Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, protease inhibitor cocktail, 1 mM

18 PMSF, 1% NP-40), and centrifuged at 100,000×g for 1 h at 4°C. The obtained pellet

19 (P100) containing the Golgi, lysosomes, endosomes, and other membrane vesicles was

20 resuspended in 1 ml of lysis buffer. Finally, the supernatant (S100) containing

21 cytoplasmic proteins was adjusted to 1 ml with lysis buffer. Tubulin was used as the

22 control for the fractionation.

1 rotated at 4°C for 1 h. After four gentle washes with PBS, the bound proteins were

2 eluted by FLAG peptide or direct boiling in SDS sample buffer. Samples were analyzed

3 by immunoblotting or silver staining. The bands corresponding to DOPEY2 and MON2

4 were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in which

5 performed by Shanghai Applied Protein Technology Co.,Ltd (Shanghai, China).

6

7 SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting

8 Samples were separated in 8% or 4%–20% SDS-PAGE gels, and transferred to 9 PVDF membranes. TheFor membranes Peer were blockedReview in 5% milk in TBST buffer (10 mM 10 Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% (v/v) Tween-20) and probed with appropriate

11 antibodies diluted in QuickBlock™ Primary Antibody Dilution Buffer (#P0256;

12 Beyotime) for 1 h at room temperature or 4°C overnight. After three washes with TBST

13 for 10 min each, the membranes were incubated with HRP-conjugated secondary

14 antibodies diluted in 5% milk in TBST buffer for 1 h at room temperature, and washed

15 three times in TBST buffer. Bound antibodies were detected with ECL Substrate

16 (#1705060; Bio-Rad). For reuse of the membranes to detect the loading control, the

17 membranes were treated with stripping buffer (#P0025N; Beyotime). Images were

18 captured using an Amersham Imager 680 Camera System (GE Healthcare, Princeton,

19 NJ) or Tanon 5200 Automatic Chemiluminescence Image Analysis System (Shanghai,

20 China). The band intensities were quantified using ImageJ.

22 Transferrin recycling assay

23 HEK293 WT or MON2-KO cells were incubated with CF™488A -coupled Tfn

24 (40 μg/ml) at 4°C for 1 h, followed by rapid washing with acid wash buffer (50 mM

25 glycine, 100 mM NaCl, pH 3.0) for 2 min. The cells were then incubated with

26 prewarmed medium in the presence of excess Holo-Tfn (100 μg/ml) for specified

27 periods of time at 37°C. At the end of the incubation, the cells were gently washed with

2 Both DOPEY1 and DOPEY2 interact with MON2

3 To better understand DOPEY functions, we searched for DOPEY2 interacting

4 proteins. A ~200 kDa protein that specifically immunoprecipitated with 3×FLAG-

5 tagged DOPEY2 (DOPEY2-3FLAG) was identified by mass spectrometry as MON2

6 (Supplemental Figure S1a). Recently, McGough et al. showed that DOPEY2 associates

7 with MON2 (McGough et al., 2018), while Mahajan et al. reported that DOPEY1, but

8 not DOPEY2, binds to MON2 (Mahajan et al., 2019). We confirmed that MON2 9 immunoprecipitated withFor both PeerDOPEY1-3FLAG Review or DOPEY2-3FLAG (Figure 1a, b). 10 To probe their interaction, we analyzed the localization of DOPEY1, DOPEY2

11 and MON2. Subcellular fractionation revealed that, as expected, DOPEY1 and

12 DOPEY2 were mainly associated with membranes (Supplemental Figure S1b). GFP-

13 tagged DOPEY1 (DOPEY1-FLAG-EGFP) showed weak co-localization with a Golgi

14 marker, Giantin, with the majority of DOPEY1 localized in punctate foci throughout

15 the cytoplasm (Figure 1c). In contrast to DOPEY1, DOPEY2 was not detectable at all

16 in the Golgi and was only present in these cytoplasmic foci (Figure 1c). Because both

17 DOPEY1 and DOPEY2 interacted with MON2 in mammalian cells, we monitored

18 DOPEY1-FLAG-EGFP and DOPEY2-FLAG-EGFP localization as a function of

19 MON2 expression (TagRFP-MON2). As shown in Figure 1d, both DOPEY1 and

20 DOPEY2 were strongly recruited to perinuclear structures after co-expression with

21 TagRFP-MON2. These results indicate that MON2 could associate with both DOPEY1

22 and 2 proteins on the membranes.

23

24 Mammalian MON2 mainly localize at RE

25 Since MON2 has been implicated as scaffolding protein that recruits cytosolic

26 DOPEY proteins to the specific membrane structures, we next determined MON2

27 localization in HEK293 cells. GFP-tagged MON2 (EGFP-MON2) almost completely

28 co-localized with TagRFP-tagged MON2 (TagRFP-MON2), suggesting that MON2

1 localization is the same whether it is tagged with GFP or RFP (Figure 2a). Perinuclear

2 MON2 co-localized with the trans-Golgi/TGN marker Golgin97 and cis-Golgi marker

3 GM130 (Figure 2a). Since endocytic recycling compartments are concentrated between

4 the Golgi ribbon (Saraste and Prydz, 2019) and recent findings revealed that RE attach

5 to the trans-side of Golgi stacks (Fujii et al., 2020), we sought to determine if MON2 is

6 enriched in endosomes rather than the Golgi. To verify where MON2 positions in the

7 Golgi and endosomes, we treated cells with nocodazole to introduce mini-Golgi stacks.

8 After 3 h nocodazole treatment, TagRFP-MON2 was localized to trans-side of mini- 9 Golgi stacks by comparisonFor with Peer GM130 (cis-Golgi)/GiantinReview (medial-Golgi) or Giantin 10 /Golgin97 (trans-Golgi/TGN) (Supplemental Figure S2a, b). In addition, MON2 was

11 separated from Golgin97, suggesting that MON2 is not localized in the trans-

12 Golgi/TGN (Supplemental Figure S2b). To further determine the MON2 localization,

13 we compared MON2 to various endosomal markers, including those for EE, LE, and

14 RE. The small Rab GTPases RAB4A and RAB4B are enriched at the tubular

15 subdomain of EE and RE (D'Souza et al., 2014; Perrin et al., 2013), whereas RAB11 is

16 localized to RE (Green et al., 1997; Ren et al., 1998; Ullrich et al., 1996). The degree

17 with which MON2 and each of these markers co-localized was quantified by Manders

18 correlation coefficients (MCCs), which measures the proportionality of pixel intensity

19 (Bolte and Cordelieres, 2006) (Figure 2b). These analyses demonstrated TagRFP-

20 MON2 predominantly co-localized with RAB4A, RAB4B, or RAB11 in the RE (Figure

21 2a). MON2 co-localized predominantly with RAB4B: M1 of MCC = 0.636±0.039

22 (TagRFP-MON2 overlapping with EGFP-RAB4B) and M2 of MCC = 0.599±0.035

23 (EGFP-RAB4B overlapping with TagRFP-MON2) (n=15 for both, mean±SE),

24 meaning that 63.6% of MON2 overlapped with RAB4B and 59.9% of RAB4B

25 overlapped with MON2. RAB4A and RAB11 also co-localized with MON2, while the

26 M2 values (the percentage of EGFP-RAB4A or RAB11 overlapping with TagRFP-

27 MON2) were slightly lower.

28 We also examined MON2 co-localization with sorting nexin SNX3 as it was

14

1 reported to interact with MON2 during endosome vesicle/tubule formation (McGough

2 et al., 2018). SNX3 is an EE marker; it specifically binds to phosphatidylinositol-3-

3 phosphate on the membrane of EE and mediates SNX3-retromer complex-dependent

4 vesicular/tubular structure formation (Harterink et al., 2011; McGough et al., 2018; Xu

5 et al., 2001). In comparisons of TagRFP-MON2 with EGFP-SNX3, the M1 of MCC

6 was 0.069±0.009 and the M2 of MCC was 0.082±0.012 (n=19 for both, mean±SE),

7 suggesting MON2 and SNX3 rarely co-localized (Figure 2b and Supplemental Figure

8 S3). A similar lack of co-localization was also observed for other EE and LE markers 9 such as RAB5 and RAB7For (Figure Peer 2b and Supplemental Review Figure S3). Taken together, our 10 results indicate that MON2 is primarily localized to RE.

11

12 RAB4B-positive RE transiently interact with EE

13 To examine the dynamics and interactions of MON2 with endosomes in living

14 cells, we co-expressed EGFP-SNX3 or EGFP-RAB4B with TagRFP-MON2 in

15 HEK293 cells and imaged the cells by confocal microscopy (Figure 3a, b). EEs form

16 ring-like structures in some cell types (Wilson et al., 2000). Similar to RAB5 (Hirota

17 et al., 2007), EEs showed larger ring-like shapes in some cells when EGFP-SNX3 was

18 overexpressed. These SNX3-EE rings advantageously enabled a clearer observation of

19 MON2 contacts with endosomal membranes (Figure 3c and Movie 1, all movies can be

20 downloaded from:

21 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1beD9ONP9k8yKECHoApZhTgk1qomEHxlz?

22 usp=sharing). Time-lapse imaging demonstrated MON2-positive RE often approached

23 and transiently contacted the edge of SNX3-positive EE ring. SNX3-positive EE that

24 associated with MON2-positive RE did not fuse; rather, these EE remained segregated

25 and subsequently retreated back to the cytoplasm. RAB4B co-localized with MON2-

26 positive RE and displayed the same bidirectional movement. Notably, this movement

27 was observed in the vesicular/tubular structures (marked by arrowheads in Figure 3d)

28 that approached, made contact with, and separated from the ring-shaped endosomes

15

1 (Movie 2). These results indicate that RE transiently interact with EE through

2 bidirectional movement.

4 MON2 is required for RE segregation from EE

5 To examine MON2 function on RE trafficking, we examined loss of MON2 or

6 DOPEY function on localization of RE labeled by RAB4B. EE and Golgi were marked

7 by TagBFP-SNX3 and Scarlet-Giantin, respectively. All gene KO in this study were

8 confirmed by genome sequence (Supplemental Table. 1) and immunoblotting with 9 available antibodies againstFor MON2, Peer VPS35, Review and DOPEY1 (Supplemental Figure. S4a). 10 In WT cells, RAB4B-positive RE localized in three places: the perinuclear region near

11 the Golgi ribbon, the tubular/vesicular structures associated with the EE membrane, and

12 the peripheral cytoplasmic dots (Figure 4a). In contrast, RAB4B fluorescence in the

13 Giantin-positive Golgi was almost undetectable in cells deleted for MON2. Instead, in

14 MON2-KO cells, RAB4B co-localized with SNX3, suggesting it was mainly in EE

15 region (Figure 4a). Quantification of RAB4B co-localization with these markers in the

16 perinuclear regions was performed using multiple images (n=12 for WT cells; n=10 for

17 MON2-KO cells) (Figure 4b). The Pearson’s correlation coefficient (PCC) for EGFP-

18 RAB4B versus Scarlet-Giantin changed significantly from 0.691±0.029 in WT cells to

19 0.405±0.037 in MON2-KO cells, suggesting that RAB4B-positive RE near the Golgi

20 region decreased in MON2-KO cells. The re-distribution of RAB4B to the Golgi was

21 rescued by expressing TagRFP-MON2 in MON2-KO cells (Supplemental Figure S4b),

22 demonstrating the functionality of TagRFP-MON2 and that RAB4B mislocalization is

23 caused by MON2 deletion.

24 To determine the contributions of DOPEY proteins to RE distribution, we next

25 analyzed the localization of RAB4B in DOPEY1-KO, DOPEY2-KO, and DOPEY1

26 and DOPEY2 double-KO (D-KO) cells. RAB4B localization was only minimally

27 affected in DOPEY1-KO cells. Unexpectedly, in DOPEY2-KO and D-KO cells,

28 RAB4B localization increased around the Golgi and disappeared in the peripheral dots

16

Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic (J-STAGE) Page 17 of 54 innovative, web-based, database-driven peer review and online submission workflow solution

1 and around EE membrane (Supplemental Figure S4c). To verify the RAB4B

2 localization more clearly, cells were treated with nocodazole to introduce mini-stacks.

3 After nocodazole treatment, RAB4B was co-localized with Giantin in D-KO cells, but

4 was concentrated in SNX3-positive structures in MON2-KO cells (Supplemental

5 Figure S4d). These results demonstrate that deletion of MON2 and DOPEY have

6 distinct phenotypes on RE localization and therefore suggest a more complex

7 relationship than expected (See Discussion part).

8 In mammalian cells, RE are also present as dense tubular networks (Xie et al., 9 2016). To determine Forif MON2 Peer contributes Reviewto the formation of this tubular network, we 10 compared the localization of RAB4B-positive RE in WT and in MON2-KO cells by

11 live-cell imaging. Reticular-like networks were readily observed and the tubules

12 showed dynamic movement in WT cells (Movie 3). In contrast the dynamic tubular

13 networks were lost in MON2-KO cells. These results indicate that MON2 is required

14 for tubularization of RE at the site of EE and regulates the movement of RE.

15

16 MON2 is required for recycling of transferrin receptor

17 The requirement of MON2 for maintenance of RE structures prompted us to

18 investigate if MON2 plays a role in endocytic recycling. One of well-known RE marker

19 is transferrin receptor (TfnR), which continuously recycles between PM and endocytic

20 system (Kobayashi and Fukuda, 2013; Maxfield and McGraw, 2004). When endocytic

21 recycling is impaired, the steady state level of TfnR is altered. We analyzed the TfnR

22 level in MON2-KO and VPS35-KO cells. The steady-state levels of TfnR do not

23 depend on VPS35 (Kvainickas et al., 2017). As shown in Figure 5a, the levels of TfnR

24 was unaffected in VPS35-KO cells. In contrast, the steady-state levels of TfnR were

25 increased in MON2-KO cells, suggesting that the MON2 is affected the TfnR recycling.

26 To further investigate this phenotype, fluorescently-labeled transferrin (Tfn-488) was

27 internalized for 1 h at 4C in WT and MON2-KO cells, after which the cells were 28 chased and quantified for their intracellular fluorescence. The intracellular fluorescence

17

Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic (J-STAGE) innovative, web-based, database-driven peer review and online submission workflow solution Page 18 of 54

1 of Tfn-488 decreased more slowly in MON2-KO cells (t1/2 = ~20 min) than in WT cells

2 (t1/2 = ~10 min) (Figure. 5b) suggesting the increased levels of TfnR is due to its 3 increased intracellular retention. We next checked the localization of endogenous TfnR

4 by compared with EE marker SNX3 in WT and MON2-KO cells. In WT cells, TfnR-

5 positive dots were separated from SNX3-positive EE (Figure 5c). In contrast, TfnR was

6 accumulated around EE in MON2-KO cells. Quantitative analysis revealed that the co-

7 localization of TfnR with SNX3 was increased (Figure 5d), suggesting that MON2 is

8 required for efficient recycling of TfnR. 9 For Peer Review 10 Wls passes through RE for retrograde transport to the Golgi

11 Wls is a critical cargo receptor for the secretion of Wnt proteins (Banziger et al.,

12 2006), and undergoes continuous recycling between the PM, EE, and Golgi (Gasnereau

13 et al., 2011; Port et al., 2008). In EE, the SNX3-retromer complex is needed for

14 recognition and enrichment of Wls (Harterink et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2011). MON2

15 is required for Wls recycling (McGough et al., 2018) but at which specific steps remains

16 to be determined. We hypothesized that the MON2-DOPEY complex mediates

17 abscission of Wls-containing vesicular carriers from EE. To test this hypothesis, we

18 analyzed the steady-state localizations of Wls-EGFP in the Golgi (marked with Scarlet-

19 Giantin), EE (marked with TagBFP-SNX3), and RE (marked with TagRFP-MON2).

20 Wls-EGFP was primarily localized to the Golgi in WT cells. Both SNX3- and MON2-

21 positive endosomes contained Wls-EGFP signals (Supplemental Figure S5).

22 Furthermore, the compartments containing both Wls-EGFP and TagRFP-MON2

23 exhibited co-movement during live-cell imaging (Figure 6a, Movie 4), suggesting that

24 MON2-positive RE contain Wls as cargo molecules.

25 Is endocytosed Wls transported from EE to the Golgi directly, or does it pass

26 through RE? To determine the route of the PM-localized Wls, we took advantage of an

27 HA-tagged Wls construct (HA-Wls), in which an HA-tag was inserted in the first

28 extracellular loop (Varandas et al., 2016). WT cells expressing HA-Wls were labeled

18

Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic (J-STAGE) Page 19 of 54 innovative, web-based, database-driven peer review and online submission workflow solution

1 with an anti-HA antibody for 15 min, after which the cells were chased in normal

2 medium. HA-Wls accumulated at SNX3-labeled EE after a 15-min chase (data not

3 shown). After a 60-min chase, HA-Wls was mainly co-localized with MON2-positive

4 RE (Figure 6b), suggesting that HA-Wls was transported to RE after its presence in EE.

5 The observation that endocytosed HA-Wls passes through RE prompted us to

6 examine the requirement of MON2 for transport of Wls from EE to the Golgi. After

7 Wls internalization, its localization was examined by microscopy in WT and MON2-

8 KO cells. EGFP-SNX3 and TagRFP-RAB4B were used as an EE and RE marker, 9 respectively. Initially,For HA-Wls Peer was mainly Review localized to the PM and partly at SNX3- 10 positive EE in both WT and MON2-KO cells (Figure 7a). After a 20-min chase, HA-

11 Wls started to appear at both EE and RE, with an almost equal distribution. After an

12 80-min chase, the localization of HA-Wls at SNX3-positive EE was reduced in WT

13 cells, whereas HA-Wls in RAB4B-positive RE remained constant. In MON2-KO cells,

14 however, HA-Wls remained localized at SNX3-positive EE (Figure 7a). Furthermore,

15 the localization of HA-Wls in RAB4B-positive RE continuously increased

16 (Supplemental Figure S6a, b). These results demonstrate that Wls is accumulated at EE

17 and RE in MON2-KO cells.

18 Next, transport of HA-Wls to the Golgi was examined. We labeled RE and the

19 Golgi with EGFP-RAB4B and Scarlet-Giantin, respectively. Notably, RAB4B

20 localization that was predominantly around the Golgi in WT cells was decreased in

21 MON2-KO cells (Figure 4a). After chasing for 60 and 120 min, HA-Wls was

22 predominantly localized to the Golgi in WT cells but remained co-localized with

23 RAB4B-positive compartments and barely appeared in the Giantin-positive Golgi in

24 MON2-KO cells (Figure 7b). Quantitative analysis further revealed that the localization

25 of HA-Wls with Giantin was not increased in MON2-KO cells (Supplemental Figure

26 S6c, d). Taken together, these results indicate that transport of Wls from RE to the Golgi

27 is impaired by MON2 deletion.

1 The steady state of Wls-EGFP is mis-localized to lysosome in MON2-KO cells

2 To analyze where Wls is trafficked in MON2-KO cells, we examined its steady

3 state levels and localization. It is reported that deletion of VPS35 causes Wls mis-

4 localization to lysosomes (Port et al., 2008; Yang et al., 2008). Wls-EGFP localization

5 was analyzed with the endogenous Golgi marker Giantin and lysosome marker LAMP1.

6 In WT cells, Wls-EGFP was mainly localized at the Golgi (Supplemental Figure S7a).

7 In contrast, intracellular punctate fluorescent signals of Wls-EGFP appeared in VPS35-

8 KO and MON2-KO cells. These punctate structures co-localized with the lysosomal 9 marker LAMP1. QuantitativeFor Peeranalysis of Wls-EGFPReview revealed that the co-localization 10 of Wls-GFP with Giantin was significantly reduced in MON2-KO and VPS35-KO cells

11 (Supplemental Figure S7b), while that with LAMP1 was increased (Supplemental

12 Figure S7c). To confirm the result, we analyzed the localization of HA-Wls at 120 min

13 after starting the endocytosis. The localization of HA-Wls was compared with that of

14 LAMP1. In WT cells, HA-Wls was accumulated at Golgi-like structures (Figure 7b),

15 whereas it did not colocalize with LAMP1 (Supplemental Figure S7d). In MON2-KO

16 cells, HA-Wls started to co-localize with LAMP1 partially (Supplemental Figure S7d).

17 Taken together, these results indicate that Wls is missorted to lysosomes when MON2

18 is deleted.

1 Discussion

2 In the present study, we demonstrate that the MON2 regulates RE distribution and

3 movement, which are required for retrograde transport of Wls from EE to the Golgi

4 (Figure 8). In MON2-KO cells, RAB4B-positive RE were retained around EE. As a

5 consequence, recycling of endocytic cargos like Wls and TfnR, which pass through RE,

6 was impaired.

7 MON2 was first reported to localize at the TGN in HeLa cells (Mahajan et al., 2013),

8 although a subsequent study revealed that endogenous MON2 may reside in both the 9 Golgi and RE (MahajanFor et al., 2019).Peer In the Review present study, we carefully checked MON2 10 localization and found that both EGFP and TagRFP-tagged MON2 localized at

11 perinuclear regions as well as in peripheral dots. The Golgi and perinuclear RE tubules

12 are both concentrated at the MTOC in cells (Saraste and Prydz, 2019). Analysis of mini-

13 stacks introduced by nocodazole revealed that MON2, like RE markers, was localized

14 at trans-side of the stacks (Fujii et al., 2020). Both MON2-positive perinuclear regions

15 and peripheral dots were merged with RE markers, suggesting that MON2 localizes at

16 RE.

17 We found that both DOPEY1 and DOPEY2 interacted with MON2. Furthermore,

18 ectopic MON2 expression shifted the cytoplasmic localization of DOPEY1 and

19 DOPEY2 to RE localization, demonstrating that MON2 recruits both DOPEY1 and

20 DOPEY2 to the RE membrane. Although MON2 forms a complex with both DOPEY1

21 and DOPEY2, the localization of RAB4B differed in each of the deletion cells (Figure

22 4a and Supplemental Figure S4a). One possible explanation for these markedly

23 different phenotypes is that the bidirectional transport of RE. The N-terminal of

24 DOPEY1 interacts with a motor protein, kinesin-1 (Mahajan et al., 2019). Our

25 preliminary experiment also showed that MON2-DOPEY has binding abilities to

26 kinesin and dynein/dynactin motor proteins (Supplemental Figure S8), suggesting that

27 the MON2-DOPEY complex drives the RE movement through motor proteins. In

28 DOPEY-KO cells, pre-existing RE would fail to move toward EE so accumulate at

21

Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic (J-STAGE) innovative, web-based, database-driven peer review and online submission workflow solution Page 22 of 54

1 Golgi. On the other hand, MON2 might regulate DOPEY-motor activity at the site of

2 RE generation on EE. In MON2-KO cells, failure to segregate newly synthesized

3 tubular RE from EE results in Wls accumulation near EE structures (Figure 8).

4 Recycling of Wls was impaired in MON2-KO cells. Wls continually undergoes

5 recycling between the plasma membrane, EE and the Golgi (Harterink et al., 2011; Port

6 et al., 2008), whereas it has remained unclear whether Wls is directly transported from

7 EE to the Golgi or through RE. We showed that endocytic Wls is transported to MON2-

8 and RAB4B-positive RE, indicating that Wls is recycled back to the Golgi through RE. 9 The SNX3-retromer For complex Peer is essential Review for the recognition of Wls and ATP9A is 10 responsible for the membrane deformation that is required for carrier formation

11 (McGough et al., 2018). It has been reported that ATP9A is also localized at RE

12 (Tanaka et al., 2016). The MON2-DOPEY complex associates with ATP9A and SNX3

13 (McGough et al., 2018), and could play roles in carrier transport.

14 On the other hand, knockdown of MON2 accelerates the transport of Furin and CI-

15 M6PR from endosome to TGN (Mahajan et al., 2013). Furin is trafficked to the TGN

16 directly through late endosomes without passing RE compartment (Mallet and Maxfield,

17 1999), and CI-M6PR is a cargo of SNX-BAR carriers (Kvainickas et al., 2017).

18 Compared with the long tubular carriers formed by SNX-BAR, the membrane carriers

19 containing Wls, which are formed by the ATP9A-SNX3-retromer, are vesicular

20 (Harterink et al., 2011). The evidence support that retrograde transport of Furin and CI-

21 M6PR is independent of MON2 function. Depletion of MON2 causes SNX3-retromer

22 blockade and may accelerate the transport of Furin and CI-M6PR to the Golgi due to

23 upregulation of other retrograde pathways such as SNX-BAR.

24 It is well established that several mechanisms including actin-driven, dynein-driven,

25 and ER-endosome contact site-driven processes are involved in the fission of SNX-

26 BAR tubules from LE (Daly and Cullen, 2018). However, less is known about how the

27 SNX3-retromer complex carriers are excised from EE. Under live-cell imaging, we

28 observed that peripheral MON2-positive RE approached SNX3-labeled EE, displayed

22

1 a transient interaction, and then separated from them. This behavior is similar to the

2 ‘hug-and-kiss’ model proposed for receipt of COPII vesicles by the cis-Golgi at the

3 endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (Kurokawa et al., 2014). One model that our data

4 support is that pre-existing RE interacts with newly synthesized RE at the tubular EE

5 through the bidirectional movement on microtubules, and Wls may be incorporated

6 from EE to RE. Once Wls has been transported to RE, it is delivered to the TGN. These

7 possibilities will be addressed in future investigations. 8 For Peer Review
