Barbed end capping by Capping Protein inhibits Twinfilin1-mediated depolymerization.

(A) Mouse Twinfilin-1 (mTwf1) domain organization: ADF-H, actin depolymerization factor homology domain; L, linker; T, tail. Sequence alignment of tail regions of Twinfilin isoforms from different species with boxed region highlighting conservation of residues critical for binding to Capping Protein (CP). mTwf1-11 carries a mutation in the tail region (KR332,333AA) that disrupts binding to CP. (B) Fluorescence anisotropy measurement of 100 nM HiLyte488-labeled mTwf1 tail peptide mixed with increasing concentrations of the indicated CP construct. (C) Fluorescence anisotropy measurement of 100 nM HiLyte488-labeled mTwf1 tail peptide incubated in the presence 1 μM CP and increasing concentrations of either mTwf1 or mTwf1-11. Anisotropy values for each condition averaged from three independent experiments. (D,E) Rates of barbed end depolymerization (subunits s−1) induced by 1 μM of the indicated mouse Twinfilin, in the (D) absence or (E) presence of 10 nM CP, determined from TIRF assays. Rates for each condition averaged from at least five filaments in each of two independent experiments. From left to right: (D) n = 19, 26, and 15 and mean depolymerization rates 1.13, 2.784 and 2.81 subunits s−1; (E) n = 13, 15, and 20 and mean depolymerization rates 1.13, 2.784 and 2.81 subunits s−1. (F) Rates of barbed end depolymerization (subunits s−1) induced by 1 μM mTwf1, in the absence or presence of 1 μM of the indicated CP construct, determined from TIRF assays. Rates for each condition averaged from at least five filaments from at least one experiment. From left to right n = 21, 25, 6, and 10; mean depolymerization rates 1.45, 2.991, 0.11, and 3.58 subunits s−1. (G) Summary of barbed end depolymerization activity of mTwf1 constructs in combination with different CP constructs determined from TIRF assays (as in D,E,F).

Direct interactions of Twinfilin with Capping Protein attenuate CARMIL-mediated uncapping.

(A) Bulk fluorescence assays comparing the rates of actin assembly in the presence of 25 nM muscle Capping Protein (CPα1β1) and increasing concentrations of mTwf1. To initiate uncapping, 250 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL (see schematic, Figure 2A) was spiked into the reaction at 400 s. Data shown are representative curves from experiments repeated three independent times. (B) Representative time-lapse images from TIRF microscopy assays monitoring the displacement of labeled CP from barbed ends. Filaments were first polymerized and tethered using 1 µM actin (10% OG-labeled, 0.5% biotin–actin), then capped at their barbed ends by flowing in SNAP-649-CP (100% labeled). Next, 50 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL and different concentrations of mTwf1 were flowed in, and CP dissociation was monitored over time. Scale bar, 5 μm. (C) Quantification of the percentage of filaments retaining CP at the barbed ends in the presence of 50 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL and variable concentrations of mTwf1, determined from TIRF reactions as in (B). Control curve, buffer alone (no CBR or mTwf1). n > 45 events measured from at least two independent experiments. (D) Representative time-lapse images from TIRF microscopy assays monitoring CP displacement from barbed ends, analyzed as in (B), except using 1 μM mTwf1-11 instead of mTwf1. n > 45 events measured from at least two independent experiments. (E) Quantification of the percentage of filaments retaining CP at the barbed end in the presence of 50 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL and different concentrations of mTwf1-11, determined from TIRF assays as in (D). n > 45 events measured from at least two independent experiments.

(A) Representative time-lapse images from TIRF microscopy assays showing that mTwf2a protects Capping Protein (CP) from CARMIL-mediated displacement from barbed ends. Filaments were first polymerized and tethered using 1 µM actin (10% OG-labeled, 0.5% biotin–labeled), then SNAP-649-CP was flowed in to cap barbed ends. Subsequently, 50 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL and 250 nM mTwf2a was flowed in, and uncapping was monitored over time. (B) Quantification of the percentage of filaments retaining SNAP-649-CP at their barbed ends after flow in of 50 nM CBR fragment of CARMIL and variable concentrations of mTwf2a, measured from TIRF reactions as in (A). Control curve, buffer alone (no CBR or mTwf2a). n > 45 events measured from one experiment. (C) Concentration-dependent effects of Twinfilin isoforms (and mutant mTwf1-11) on time to 50% disappearance of CP from barbed ends, measured from data shown in Figure 3C (mTwf1), Figure 3E (mTwf1-11), and Supplemental Figure 3—figure supplement 1 (mTwf2a).

(D) Stopped-flow fluorescence assays measuring the kinetics of dissociation of 50 nM TAMRA-V-1 from 1 μM CP upon addition at time zero of 2.5 μM unlabeled V-1 and variable concentrations of mTwf1 as indicated. Apparent dissociation rates are listed for each condition. (E) Apparent dissociation rates of TAMRA-V-1 for different concentrations of mTwf1 are from (D); and for 12 µM mTwf1−11 = 1.0 ± 0.003 s−1. Anisotropy values for each condition were averaged from five independent experiments.

Error bars, s.e.m. ***p≤0.001, n.s. p>0.05 by one-way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc test. (C) ‘Earlier’ model for CP regulatory cycle, adapted from Fujiwara and colleagues (Fujiwara et al., 2014). Proposed steps in model: (1) V-1 globally inhibits Capping Protein (CP) in the cytoplasm, (2) membrane-associated CARMIL (at the protruding cell edge) catalyzes dissociation of V-1 from CP, (3) the resulting CARMIL-CP complex is partially active, binding weakly to free barbed ends to provide capping function, (4) an unknown factor or mechanism promotes dissociation of CARMIL from CP, allowing V-1 to rebind CP and complete the cycle. (D) Our revised working model for the CP regulatory cycle. We propose that V-1 functions to maintain a cytosolic reservoir of inactive CP, from which Twinfilin and CARMIL activate CP, generating two distinct forms of active CP in cells: Twinfilin-CP complexes and CARMIL-CP complexes. Twinfilin-CP complexes are fully active and support stable capping of barbed ends. In contrast, CARMIL-CP complexes have ~100 fold reduced affinity for barbed ends, and may therefore more transiently cap barbed ends, permitting restricted network growth at the cell membrane where CARMIL localizes. CARMIL and Twinfilin directly compete with each other for binding CP (shown in close up of Transition state), which may result in the displacement of CP from Twinfilin. This would leave Twinfilin at the barbed end to catalyze depolymerization, or alternatively return filaments back to the original state of assembly.

Figure 7—figure supplement 1
Structural model for a ternary complex formed by Twinfilin, Capping Protein and the barbed end of an actin filament.

The three actin protomers at the barbed end are shown in gray, the CP heterodimer is shown in yellow, and Twinfilin is shown in blue. The structure of CP bound to the barbed end was solved by cryo-EM (Narita et al., 2006). We docked the Twinfilin ADFH domains onto this structure using the following criteria. The Twinfilin N-terminal ADFH (N-ADFH) lobe, shown bound between the first and third subunits from the barbed end of the actin filament, is based on the structure of this domain bound to G-actin (PDB 3DAW) (Paavilainen et al., 2008), and assumes that this domain also uses its F-site to bind to F-actin in a manner similar to cofilin, which was solved by cryo-EM (PDB 5YU8) (Tanaka et al., 2018). The Twinfilin C-terminal ADFH (C-ADFH) lobe, shown bound to the first subunit of the actin filament barbed end, is based on the solution structure of this domain bound to G-actin via is G/F-site. The Twinfilin linker sequence (connecting the two ADFH domains) is depicted as an unstructured chain, 25 residues long, which if unstructured (87 Å) is sufficient in length to allow each ADFH domain to bind a different actin protomer. There is no structure available for the CPI motif-containing C-terminal tail of Twinfilin; therefore, in this model we used the known structure of the CPI region of CARMIL bound to the stalk of CP (PDB 3AAE) (Hernandez-Valladares et al., 2010). Attempts to model Twinfilin bound to the opposite strand of F-actin did not allow sufficient length between the tail (binding CP) and the C-terminal ADFH domain binding to actin.
