1 We show here that, for synthetic peptides corresponding to sequences of CFTR TM6 segments, circular dichroism spectra of wild type and R347P TM6 in membrane mimetic environments are virtually identical, but L346P loses ϳ50% helicity, implying a membrane insertion defect in the latter mutant.

2 A similar defect was observed in the corresponding double-spanning ("hairpin") TM5/6-L346P synthetic peptide. Login to comment
3 Examination of the biogenesis of CFTR revealed that the full-length protein harboring the L346P mutation is rapidly degraded at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), whereas the wild type and the R347P protein process normally. Login to comment
4 Furthermore, a second site mutation (R347I) that restores in vitro membrane insertion and folding of the TM5/6-L346P peptide also rescues the folding and cell surface chloride channel function of full-length L346P CFTR. Login to comment
15 A number of mutations occurring in TM5/6 have been found to cause mild (usually pancreatic sufficient) forms of CF, two of which involve introduction of a proline residue: L346P, a mutation that was identified in two unrelated Cypriot patients in 1994 (10); and a second sequentially adjacent CF-phenotypic mutant, R347P (11).

35 Furthermore, in CFTR mutant L346P, the loss of Leu significantly increases the local hydrophilicity of this TM segment, i.e. on the Liu-Deber hydropathy index where values are scaled between ϩ5 and -5, Leu ranks third (ϩ4.76), whereas Pro ranks 19th (-4.92) out of the 20 commonly occurring amino acids (19).

70 Baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells were stably transfected with the pNUT expression plasmids, containing the wild type (WT), L346P, or R347P CFTR, harboring an HA-epitope in the C-terminal tail of CFTR (CFTR-CintHA) (21). Login to comment
84 RESULTS Hydrophobicity Threshold of CF-phenotypic Mutant TM Segments-Although both L346P and R347P represent a gain of a Pro residue in CFTR TM6, the resulting local 346/347 diads (PR and LP, respectively) differ significantly in hydrophobic character. Login to comment
86 The outputs for the wild type (WT) and L346P CFTR sequences support an initial hypothesis that the L346P mutation decreases the average net hydrophobicity of the original TM6 segment sufficiently to prevent the proper membrane insertion of the full TM6 segment (Fig. 1, A and B). Login to comment
88 In contrast, the output for the L346P mutant sequence (residues 330-341) fails to predict a sufficiently long stretch of amino acids that are above the threshold hydrophobicity required for a TM helix (27, 28). Login to comment
89 However, unlike L346P, the R347P mutation doesn`t involve a significant change in hydrophobicity, and TM Finder predicts that the R347P mutant has the same membrane-inserted amino acid stretch (residues 330-349) as the WT TM6 sequence (Fig. 1C). Login to comment

109 Characteristic Trp fluorescence spectra of these two peptides in detergent micelles are presented in Fig. 2C. Noting that a membrane-embedded Trp residue will typically display increased fluorescence intensity with a blue-shifted position versus an aqueous-located counterpart, the data indicate that the Trp residue in the WT species resides in an apolar environment (maximum near 320 nm) whereas the Trp in the L346P peptide is largely aqueous exposed (shoulder near 340 nm), supporting the notion that the apolar-to-polar mutation prevents proper TM6 insertion.

133 The FRET results suggest that (i) the WT sequence is likely folded into a helical hairpin and (ii) a substantial increase in fluorophore separation occurs between the N and C termini of the L346P mutant hairpin compared with the WT sequence. Login to comment
134 The L346P Mutation Impairs the Folding of CFTR in Vivo- ER-retained, core-glycosylated (or incompletely folded) CFTR can be readily distinguished from the mature, complex-glycosylated (or folded) CFTR by immunoblot analysis, based on the faster electrophoretic mobility of the core-glycosylated form compared with the complex-glycosylated CFTR. Login to comment
135 Because impaired post-translational folding of the CFTR usually causes its biosynthetic processing arrest, we examined the processing of full-length L346P- and R347P-CFTR by immunoblotting and pulse-chase analysis of BHK cells, which stably express CFTR. Login to comment
137 As shown in Fig. 3A, immunoblot analysis of equal amounts of cell extracts demonstrated that the L346P, but not the R347P, mutation, prevented the expression of the complex-glycosylated CFTR. Login to comment
139 Similar results were obtained in transiently transfected COS-1 cells, indicating that the cellular phenotype of the L346P CFTR is independent of the expression system used (Fig. 3B). Login to comment
140 Impaired steady-state expression of L346P-CFTR could be a consequence of its rapid degradation at the ER and/or of accelerated removal of the channel from post-Golgi compartments (32). Login to comment
141 To distinguish between these scenarios, the biogenesis of L346P CFTR was monitored in BHK cells by the metabolic pulse-chase technique. Login to comment
142 Although the accumulation of the complex-glycosylated WT-CFTR was obvious after 2 h of chase, the L346P mutation prevented the appearance of the complex-glycosylated form as shown by autoradiography (Fig. 3C). Login to comment
143 These results suggest that the L346P mutation imposes a folding defect on CFTR, leading to the retention and degradation of the mutant at the ER. Login to comment
144 On the other hand, the L346P mutation does not appear to cause premature translational termination or failure of the TM5-6 or TM7-8 segments to insert into the ER, because similar amounts of radioactively labeled core-glycosylated WT and L346P CFTR were accumulated during a 10-min radioactive labeling (Fig. 3D).

145 A Second Site Mutation in TM6 Restores Biosynthetic Processing of CFTR-To test the assumption that destabilization of local TM5/6 hairpin formation may inhibit post-translational folding in the context of full-length CFTR, we searched for a second site mutation that could re-establish the stability of the L346P TM5/6. Login to comment
146 Consideration of amino acid replacements in the vicinity of the L346P mutation identified a second site mutation (R347I) that restored the hydrophobicity of the TM6 L346P-containing segment to the threshold level that ensured membrane insertion according to TM Finder (Fig. 1D) (26). Login to comment
147 The L346P/R347I single spanning TM6 peptide was first synthesized, and analysis of its CD spectrum confirmed that this mutation restored the ␣-helical content of this TM6 double mutant to its WT counterpart (Fig. 4A). Login to comment
148 We then assessed whether the R347I mutation could restore hairpin formation of the TM5/6-L346P polypeptide by the FRET assay. Login to comment
149 Using a TM5/6-L346P/R347I peptide in which a Trp residue was inserted near the C terminus (Table I), and in which the N terminus was labeled with a dansyl group, we found that the donor fluorescence quench in the double mutant was now similar to that of the WT TM5/6 (Fig. 4B). Login to comment
150 If destabilization of the TM5/6 hairpin accounts for the processing defect of the L346P CFTR, introducing the second site mutation should correspondingly restore the folding and biosynthetic processing of full-length CFTR. Login to comment
152 Immunoblot analysis demonstrated the appearance of the complex-glycosylated L346P/R347I CFTR in both transiently transfected COS-1 and stably transfected BHK cells, whereas no detectable amount of L346P CFTR was present (Figs. Login to comment
154 Functional assessment of the plasma membrane protein kinase A-activated halide conductance confirmed the partial reversion of the processing defect by demonstrating that the cAMP-stimulated iodide release of the L346P CFTR (6.3 Ϯ 0.2 nmol/min) was increased by 3-fold in the presence of the second site mutation (18.4 Ϯ 03 nmol/min) (Fig. 5B). Login to comment
155 The detection of L346P CFTR by functional assay, but not by immunoblotting, is conceivable due to the higher sensitivity of the iodide efflux assay. Login to comment
160 A, CD spectra of TM6-WT and TM6-L346P/R347I in LPC micelles. B, Trp fluorescence spectra for the unlabeled and labeled TM5/ 6-WT and TM5/6-L346P/R347I peptides in LPC micelles. FRET measurements were performed using peptides labeled with dansyl chloride as the acceptor fluorophore with the Trp residue in TM6 serving as a donor fluorophore. Login to comment
164 Thus, despite the similarity of the two mutations and their adjacent positions in the sequence, the TM6-L346P peptide displayed only ϳ50% of the helicity observed for the TM6-WT sequence, whereas the TM6-R347P retained WT character, indicating that the ability of the L346P peptide to properly insert into the apolar milieu has been significantly compromised (Fig. 2A). Login to comment
167 To address this situation, we synthesized and compared helix-loop-helix peptides corresponding to the CFTR TM5/6-WT and the TM5/6-L346P sequence. Login to comment
169 Fluorescence resonance energy transfer experiments on labeled TM5/6 constructs further suggested that L346P prevents formation of proper TM6 topology, because FRET effects were significantly reduced in the TM5/ 6-L346P peptide versus the corresponding WT construct. Login to comment
176 Thus, a mutation in TM6 such as L346P may further reduce the efficiency of proper membrane anchoring of the protein. Login to comment
177 Consistent with these considerations, we found that full-length CFTR protein harboring the L346P mutation is subjected to core glycosylation but was unable to fold and was rapidly degraded in vivo. Login to comment
179 Because the full-length L346P protein is indeed synthesized, an additional possibility is that the protein is able to compensate, at least in part, for the topological defect at the TM5/6 locus via TM-packing interactions with the second (TM7-12) CFTR TM domain. Login to comment
180 Based on our study, it appears that L346P may affect local CFTR TM5/6 structure to such an extent that the ER-associated quality-control mechanism recognizes the mutant as non-native and marks it for degradation. Login to comment

200 The partial reversion of the L346P CFTR processing defect by a second site mutation (R347I) (Fig. 3B), which restores full-length TM6 insertion potential (Fig. 1D), suggests that segment hydrophobicity is prominent among the factors that play determining roles in the post-translational folding of CFTR. Login to comment
203 Because the resulting TM6 is now too short to span the cellular bilayers, a compensatory "pull" on the residues within the TM5/6-L346P loop region may also occur (Fig. 6B). Login to comment
208 Based on our results, impaired post-translational folding of CFTR is the primary defect in the case of the L346P mutation. Login to comment
212 Note that this salt bridge would similarly be abolished in the L346P/R347I mutant, perhaps explaining, in part, why this "rescue mutant" is not fully functional. Login to comment

135 We therefore examined two CF-phenotypic missense mutations in the CFTR channel pore [L346P and R347P in TM6] that involve gain of a Pro residue, but where only the nonconservative mutation L346P represents a significant loss of segment hydropathy. Login to comment

133 In particular, neither TM1P-gp nor TM2P-gp have been found capable of independent integration into the lipid bilayer.37 Also, TM3P-gp has been found not to be able to re-initiate translocation.36,40 Both TM3CFTR and TM4CFTR have been found to exhibit weak signal-anchor activities, and the translocation of the second extra cellular loop of the protein was found to be efficient when both segments were present.34-36 Interestingly, very recent results show that the poorly inserting TM8CFTR stays close to the translocon for an extended period of time before integrating fully into the membrane, and that this retention depends on an acidic residue, Asp924, located near the center of the TM segment.64 Three of the non-conservative mutations in CFTR and P-gp that we have studied strongly reduce the insertion of a transmembrane helix even when flanking residues are included: TMF6CFTR (I336K), TMF6CFTR (L346P), and TMF1P-gp (L70P).

129 In particular, neither TM1P-gp nor TM2P-gp have been found capable of independent integration into the lipid bilayer.37 Also, TM3P-gp has been found not to be able to re-initiate translocation.36,40 Both TM3CFTR and TM4CFTR have been found to exhibit weak signal-anchor activities, and the translocation of the second extra cellular loop of the protein was found to be efficient when both segments were present.34-36 Interestingly, very recent results show that the poorly inserting TM8CFTR stays close to the translocon for an extended period of time before integrating fully into the membrane, and that this retention depends on an acidic residue, Asp924, located near the center of the TM segment.64 Three of the non-conservative mutations in CFTR and P-gp that we have studied strongly reduce the insertion of a transmembrane helix even when flanking residues are included: TMF6CFTR (I336K), TMF6CFTR (L346P), and TMF1P-gp (L70P).

130 For TMF6CFTR (L346P), it has been observed that the mutation compromises the insertion of a synthetic peptide into a membrane-mimetic environment and causes rapid degradation of the mutated full-length protein in the endoplasmic reticulum in vivo.65 CFTR and P-gp both arose from gene duplication and the two halves share similarities in their overall topology.

22 In another publication, M348K was found together with the mutation L346P in a 48-year-old unaffected individual [6]. Login to comment
23 L346P in combination with F508del or 1677delTA (c.1545_1546delTA) leads to a mild or atypical phenotype. Login to comment
24 Therefore, the authors suggest that either L346P is dominant over M348K or that M348K is a J. Hentschel (*) :G. Riesener :H.

Constantinou Deltas,1 * Kalina Boteva,1 Andreas Georgiou,2 Elena Papageorgiou1 and Christina Georgiou3 1 The Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics, 2 Nicosia General Hospital, and 3 Archbishop Makarios III Hospital, Nicosia, Cyprus (Received 12 January, Accepted 6 February 1996) During the past few years we have been testing the hypothesis that Cyprus may have been spared many severe cystic fibrosis (CF) cases but not cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations. Login to comment
2 With this approach we identified a mutation, L346P, which in association with the severe mutation F508 or 1677delTA, confers a mild and atypical presentation. Login to comment
3 Recently, we identified another entirely symptomless 48-year-old individual, with genotype L346P/M348K. Login to comment
4 The fact that M348K was initially identified in a severely affected Italian patient strengthens the hypothesis that L346P, a putative mild mutation, is dominant over severe ones. Login to comment
17 The second mutation in the three Cypriot patients who carry L346P is F508,is that Cyprus might have been spared many severe CF cases, but not CFTR mutations. Login to comment

42 She aminoacid further, was initially described in a severely affected patient.7 It is quite interesting that the twohas no symptoms whatsoever, and there has never been any suspicion that she might be suffering from patients with genotypes L346P/ F508 and L346P/ 1677delTA did have some symptoms, althougha major inherited disorder.

54 This transition results in the substitution of proline for leucine at residue 346 (L346P), and it introduces a new restriction site for BstUI. Login to comment
65 Patient with DNA no. 5292 was first identified as a carrier of 1677delTA, Here it is shown that patients 4457 and 5292 are both also heterozygous for L346P. Login to comment

78 Also shown is that the sister of 4457 in family 2801 (4460), is heterozygous for L346P population (Constantinou-Deltas et al. 1992), whereas in mainland Greece one expects 1 AF508 chromosome in 110 (Balassopoulou et al. 1990). Login to comment
89 Hence, in our patients this is probably the case, with L346P dominant to AF508 and 1677delTA. Login to comment
90 It is interesting that L346P was found in two unrelated families, and this raises the possibility that other mildly affected patients carry this Cypriot mutation. Login to comment
