Reciprocal action of Casein Kinase Iε on core planar polarity proteins regulates clustering and asymmetric localisation
Figures

Planar polarity and the cloud model of core protein localisation.
(A) Core polarity proteins localise to proximal or distal edges of pupal wing cells (left), where they form intercellular complexes (right). (B) Live image of a 28 hr APF pupal wing expressing Stbm-EGFP. Asymmetrically localised core proteins cluster into membrane subdomains (puncta, yellow circle). The cyan circle indicates a non-puncta domain on the proximal-distal cell edges. (C) Diagram illustrating the possible organisation of the core polarity proteins. In non-puncta junctional regions, complexes associate at low density, in both orientations, and have relatively high mobility (left). Feedback interactions between the core proteins leads to complex sorting and complexes align in the same orientation. This promotes higher order multimerisation (red connectors) and reduced mobility (middle and right). (D) Diagram illustrating the position of the conserved phosphorylation site clusters (orange boxes) in the Stbm protein. The positions of the four transmembrane domains (black boxes, TM1-4) are also shown.

Wings immunolabelled for Stbm in green. (E',F') Stbm immunolabelling overlaid with polarity nematics (red lines), where the length of line indicates mean cell polarity and the orientation indicates direction of polarity. Yellow boxes indicate zoomed regions shown in E'' and F'' (wild-type regions) or E''' and F''' (mutant regions). Scale bar 5 µm. (G,H) Quantitation of mean polarity and variation in polarity angle, of 28 hr APF pupal wings immunolabelled for Stbm in twin clones of P[acman]-stbm stbm6 and P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (G, n = 11) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (H, n = 13). Values from the same wing are linked by black bars, mean and 95% confidence intervals are listed. Paired t-tests were used to compare values in the same wings, ***p≤0.001. (I) Quantitation of mean intensity of Stbm immunolabelling at junctions of 28 hr APF pupal wings, shown as a ratio of signal in P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (n = 12) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (n = 12) compared to P[acman]-stbm stbm6 (wt) in each wing. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals. One-sample t-tests were used to determine if the ratio differed from 1.0, ***p≤0.001. (J) Western blot probed with Stbm antibody, of extracts from 28 hr APF pupal wings from wild-type, P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 flies.

Putative founder site mutants do not disrupt core protein asymmetry.
(A–D) Adult wings from P[acman]-EGFP-stbm stbm6 flies (A), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[5,120,122]A stbm6 flies (B), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[5,120,122]E stbm6 flies (C) or P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[All]A stbm6 flies (D). Trichome orientation is normal in P[acman]-EGFP-stbm stbm6 flies (A), or flies carrying founder site mutants (B,C). However, trichome orientation is disrupted if all sites in clusters I and II are mutated to alanine (D). Scale bar 100 µm. (E–H) 28 hr APF pupal wings, carrying twin clones of P[acman]-EGFP-stbm stbm6, marked by β-gal immunolabelling (red), next to P[acman]-stbm stbm6 (E), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[S,120,122]A stbm6 (F), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[S,120,122]E stbm6 (G) or P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (H). Wings immunolabelled for Stbm (E) or with EGFP fluorescence (F–H) in green. (E'–H') Stbm immunolabelling (E') or EGFP fluorescence (F'-H') overlaid with polarity nematics (red lines), where the length of line indicates mean cell polarity and the orientation indicates direction of polarity. Yellow boxes indicate zoomed regions shown in (E''-H'') (wild-type regions) or (E'''-H''') (mutant regions). Scale bar 5 µm. Note that tagging Stbm at the N-terminus with EGFP led to a decrease in Stbm levels at junctions; however, core protein asymmetry was normal. EGFP-tagged Stbm proteins did not exhibit a band shift in SDS-PAGE, so phosphorylation status could not be determined directly. (I) Quantitation of mean polarity and variation in polarity angle, of 28 hr APF pupal wings immunolabelled for Fmi from P[acman]-EGFP-stbm stbm6 (n = 19), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[5,120,122]A stbm6 (n = 10), P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[5,120,122]E stbm6 (n = 9) or P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (n = 9). Error bars are 95% confidence intervals. ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test was used to compare values to the EGFP-Stbm control, p≤0.05*, ***p≤0.001. Core protein asymmetry is normal in flies expressing P[acman]-EGFP-stbm stbm6, or in flies carrying founder site mutants, but is severely reduced in flies carrying P[acman]-EGFP-stbmS[All]A stbm6.

Dissection of Stbm phosphorylation site clusters.
(A) Western blot probed with Stbm antibody, of extracts from 6 hr APF pupal wings from wild-type, P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 flies. Extracts were dissected directly into sample buffer (control) or into lysis buffer (mock PPase) or into lysis buffer and then phosphatase treated. Note that the Actin loading control was not visible after phosphatase treatment. (B) Western blot probed with Stbm antibody, of extracts from 28 hr APF pupal wings from wild-type, P[acman]-stbmS[5-17]A stbm6 or P[acman]-stbmS[113-122]A stbm6 flies. The asterisk indicates a non-specific band. Actin was used as a loading control. Mutation of cluster II to alanine (S5-17A) did not affect Stbm mobility on SDS PAGE compared to wild-type Stbm; while mutation of cluster I (S113-122A) increased Stbm mobility. (C–F) 28 hr APF pupal wings carrying twin clones of P[acman]-stbm stbm6, marked by β-gal immunolabelling (red), next to P[acman]-stbmS[5-17]A stbm6 (C), P[acman]-stbmS[5-17]E stbm6 (D), P[acman]-stbmS[113-122]A stbm6 (E), or P[acman]-stbmS[113-122]E stbm6 (F). Wings immunolabelled for Stbm in green. (C'–F') Stbm immunolabelling overlaid with polarity nematics (red lines), where the length of line indicates mean cell polarity and the orientation indicates direction of polarity. Yellow boxes indicate zoomed regions shown in C''-F'' (wild-type regions) or C'''-F''' (mutant regions). Scale bar 5 µm. (G,H) Quantitation of mean polarity and variation in polarity angle, of 28 hr APF pupal wings immunolabelled for Stbm. (G) P[acman]-stbm stbm6 (n = 27), P[acman]-stbmS[5-17]A stbm6 (n = 8), P[acman]-stbmS[113-122]A stbm6 (n = 8) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (n = 11). (H) P[acman]-stbm stbm6 (n = 29), P[acman]-stbmS[5-17]E stbm6 (n = 8), P[acman]-stbmS[113-122]E stbm6 (n = 8) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (n = 13). Error bars are 95% confidence intervals. ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test was used to compare values to the P[acman]-stbm control, ***p≤0.001. Mutation of all cluster II residues (S5-17) to either alanine or glutamic acid had no effect on core protein asymmetry. This suggests that the phosphorylation sites within cluster I are sufficient for correct core protein asymmetry. Mutation of all serine/threonine resides in cluster I to alanine (S113-122A) resulted in a loss of asymmetry similar to that of mutation of both clusters I and II, together. However, mutation of cluster I residues to glutamic acid gave a less severe phenotype than mutation of both clusters, suggesting that under some circumstances cluster II can partially substitute for cluster I.

Stbm phosphomutants form ‘mixed’ puncta.
(A–D) 28 hr APF pupal wings expressing P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (A,C) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (B,D). Blue immunolabelled tissue in (D) is wild-type. Wings immunolabelled for Stbm in green and Fmi (A,B) or Fz (C,D) in red. Arrowheads point to examples of puncta in which Stbm and Fmi or Fz co-localise. Scale bar 5 µm. (E,F) Schematic of twin clone experiment. Groups of cells express either EGFP-Dgo (green) or mApple-Dgo (red), and puncta are examined at the boundaries between them. (E) In wild-type wings, Dgo localises to distal cell ends, so puncta on distal clone boundaries contain either only EGFP-Dgo or only mApple-Dgo. (F) In phosphomutant wings, Dgo is not asymmetrically localised. If individual puncta are polarised (left), puncta on clones boundaries will contain either EGFP-Dgo or mApple-Dgo, regardless of whether the boundary is proximal or distal. If individual puncta are not polarised (right), puncta will contain both EGFP-Dgo and mApple-Dgo. (G,H) 28 hr APF pupal wings carrying twin clones of P[acman]-EGFP-dgo dgo380 next to P[acman]-mApple-dgo dgo380, in a wild-type (G) or a P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 mutant background (H). EGFP fluorescence is in green and mApple fluorescence is in red. White arrowheads indicate specific puncta on clone boundaries. Puncta are labelled with either green or red Dgo in wild-type, but in stbmS[All]A tissue, puncta on clone boundaries appear yellow, as they contain both green and red Dgo. (I) Schematic of ‘mixed’ punctum, containing core protein complexes in both orientations (compare to Figure 1C, right).

Core protein levels and localisation in Stbm phosphomutant and phosphomimetic wings.
(A–H) 28 hr APF pupal wings, carrying twin clones of P[acman]-stbm stbm6, marked by β-gal immunolabelling (red), next to P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (A,C,E,G) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (B,D,F,H). Wings immunolabelled for Fmi (A,B), Fz (C,D), Dsh (E,F) or Pk (G,H) in green. Scale bar 5 µm. (I,J) Quantitation of mean intensity of Fmi, Fz, Dsh or Pk immunolabelling at junctions of 28 hr APF pupal wings, shown as a ratio of signal in P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (I, n = 6 (Fmi), n = 8 (Fz), n = 6 (Dsh), n = 5 (Pk)) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (J, n = 8 (Fmi), n = 8 (Fz), n = 7 (Dsh), n = 6 (Pk)) compared to P[acman]-stbm stbm6 (wt) in each wing. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals. One-sample t-tests were used to determine if the ratio differed from 1.0, *p≤0.05, **p<0.01. Note that Pk levels are slightly lower in the phosphomutant than in wild-type, and slightly higher in the phosphomimetic. (K,L) 28 hr APF pupal wings, carrying P[acman]-EGFP-dgo in a wild-type (K) or P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 mutant background (L). EGFP fluorescence is in green and Fmi immunolabelling is in red. Arrowheads point to examples of puncta in which EGFP-Dgo and Fmi co-localise. Scale bar 5 µm.

Stbm phosphomutants have increased stability at junctions.
(A) Schematic of hub-and-spoke FRAP. The orange dotted line shows the ‘hub-and-spoke’ region that is bleached, which corresponds to three cell vertices and the equivalent of three cell junctions. The stable fraction, as determined by FRAP, is multiplied by the total initial intensity within the bleached region to give a stable amount of protein at junctions for each wing. (B) Stable and unstable amounts of EGFP-tagged protein in 28 hr APF pupal wings after hub-and-spoke FRAP. Flies were P[acman]-stbm-EGFP stbm6/+ (n = 11), P[acman]-stbmS[All]A-EGFP stbm6/P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 (n = 9) and P[acman]-stbmS[All]E-EGFP stbm6/P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 (n = 11). Data are normalised to the total intensity in Stbm-EGFP. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test was used to compare stable amounts (asterisks in dark orange columns), unstable amounts (asterisks in light orange columns) or total amounts (blue asterisks above the columns) to the Stbm-EGFP control, p≤0.05*, p≤0.001***. (C) Summary diagram showing the effect of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation on Stbm turnover. (D) Schematic of puncta FRAP and boundary FRAP. In puncta FRAP, an elliptical region surrounding a punctum is bleached (Figure 4E–G), whilst in boundary FRAP an entire junction on a clone boundary is bleached (Figure 6G). Note that as puncta of different genotypes are different sizes, stable fractions in puncta FRAP cannot be translated into stable amounts. (E–G) Stable fraction of EGFP-tagged protein in puncta in 28 hr APF pupal wings. (E) P[acman]-stbm-EGFP stbm6 (n = 6), P[acman]-stbmS[All]A-EGFP stbm6 (n = 7), P[acman]-stbmS[All]E-EGFP stbm6 (n = 9). (F) fmi-EGFP/+ (n = 9), P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6/P[acman]/stbmS[All]A stbm6 fmi-EGFP (n = 10), P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6/P[acman]/stbmS[All]E stbm6 fmi-EGFP (n = 10). (G) fz-EGFP/+ (n = 9), P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6; fz-EGFP/+ (n = 8), P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6; fz-EGFP/+ (n = 7). The fluorescence recovery was fitted to an exponential curve for each genotype, and the graph shows the stable fraction (1-Ymax) and the 95% confidence intervals. Stable fractions were compared to control (wild-type Stbm or Stbm-EGFP) using an extra sum of squares F test, p≤0.05*, p≤0.001***.

Wings were imaged in the posterior compartment. Data are normalised to the total intensity in Stbm-EGFP and error bars are 95% confidence intervals. Stable amounts (asterisks in dark shaded columns), unstable amounts (asterisks in light shaded columns) or total amounts (blue asterisks above the columns) were compared between genotypes, using ANOVA with Holm-Sidak’s multiple comparisons test to compare pairs of samples with and without DcoK38R (A), ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test to compare with the Stbm-EGFP control (B) or an unpaired t-test (C). p≤0.05*, p≤0.01**, p≤0.001***.

Flies were P[acman]-stbm-EGFP stbm6 next to stbm6 (A), P[acman]-stbm-EGFP stbm6 next to pkpk-sple13 stbm6 (B), P[acman]-stbm-EGFP pkpk-sple13 stbm6 next to stbm6 (C) and P[acman]-stbm-EGFP pkpk-sple13 stbm6 next to pkpk-sple13 stbm6 (D). EGFP fluorescence is in green, and Pk immunolabelling is in red. (E–G) Stable amounts (E), unstable amounts (F) or total amounts (G) of Stbm-EGFP on clone boundaries in 28 hr APF pupal wings (see Figure 6G). Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test was used to compare levels between all genotypes. Comparisons to column one are shown, p≤0.001**, p≤0.001***.

Regulation of Stbm clustering by Dsh and Pk.
(A,B) 28 hr APF pupal wings from flies carrying dshV26 clones in a P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 background (A) or in a P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 background (B), immunolabelled for Stbm (green) and Dsh (red, note that cytoplasmic as well as junctional Dsh can be seen). Scale bar 5 µm. (C) Speculative model to explain how Pk might reduce Stbm phosphorylation and increase its stability. In the absence of Pk, Stbm (orange boxes) loosely associates into multimers, which are accessible to Dco and highly phosphorylated (yellow circles, top left). This phosphorylation prevents clustering into higher order structures (bottom left). Binding of Pk to Stbm multimers could cause a conformational change that reduces accessibility to Dco (top middle). Reduced phosphorylation would allow clustering of multimers into higher order structures (bottom middle). Phosphomutant Stbm multimerises in the absence of Pk (right), while phosphomimetic Stbm acts like a pk mutant.

Phosphorylation of Dsh by Dco promotes core protein asymmetry.
(A,B) Stable and unstable amounts of EGFP-Dsh in 28 hr APF pupal wings after hub-and-spoke FRAP. (A) Flies were dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh/+ (n = 14), and dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh/en-GAL4; UAS-dcoK38R/+ (n = 10). (B) Flies were dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh stbm6/stbm6 (n = 12), and dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh stbm6/stbm6 en-GAL4; UAS-dcoK38R/+ (n = 7). Wings were imaged in the posterior compartment. Data are normalised to the total intensity in EGFP-Dsh. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and unpaired t-tests were used to compare stable amounts (asterisks in dark shaded columns), unstable amounts (asterisks in light shaded columns) or total amounts (blue asterisks above the columns) between samples with and without DcoK38R, p≤0.05*, p≤0.001***. (C) Western blot probed with Dsh antibody, of extracts from 28 hr APF pupal wings from wild-type, P[acman]-stbmS[All]A stbm6 or P[acman]-stbmS[All]E stbm6 flies. Actin was used as a loading control. (D–G) Adult wings expressing en-GAL4, UAS-dco in a wild-type background (D) or in flies heterozygous for fzP21 (E), stbm6 (F) or dshV26 (G). Regions of the wing with abnormal trichome polarity are outlined in yellow. Scale bar 100 µm. (H) Quantitation of trichome swirling in UAS-dco/+; en-GAL4/+ (n = 12), UAS-dco/+; en-GAL4/+; fzP21/+ (n = 12), UAS-dco/+; en-GAL4/stbm6 (n = 12) and UAS-dco/dshV26; en-GAL4/+ (n = 12). Graph shows the wing area next to the posterior cross vein in which trichome polarity was abnormal. Data are normalised to the area of the swirl in the UAS-dco control. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test was used to compare to the UAS-dco control, p≤0.001***. (I,J) 28 hr APF pupal wings from dshV26; dsh-GFP/+ (I) or dshV26; dshST8-GFP/+ (J). Wings immunolabelled for GFP (green) or Fmi (red). Scale bar 5 µm. (K) Quantitation of mean polarity and variation in polarity angle, of 28 hr APF pupal wings immunolabelled for Fmi in dshV26; dsh-GFP/+ (n = 9) or dshV26; dshST8-GFP/+ (n = 9) flies. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and samples were compared using an unpaired t-test, ***p≤0.001.

FRAP analysis of Stbm in dco mutant backgrounds.
Stable amounts (A,E), unstable amounts (B,F), total amounts (C,G) or stable fraction (D) of EGFP-Dsh in 28 hr APF pupal wings after hub-and-spoke FRAP. (A–D) Flies were dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh/+ (n = 14), dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh/en-GAL4; UAS-dcoK38R/+ (n = 10) and dshV26; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh/+ (n = 10). (A–C) In the control genotype with a wild-type copy of endogenous dsh, intensities were plotted as double that of the measured EGFP-Dsh intensity, as EGFP-Dsh expression levels are the same as endogenous Dsh (Strutt et al., 2016). Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and intensities were compared to control (EGFP-dsh/+) using ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, p≤0.05*, p≤0.001***. (D) The fluorescence recovery was fitted to an exponential curve for each genotype, and the graph shows the stable fraction (1-Ymax). Stable fractions were compared using an extra sum-of-squares F test, p≤0.05*, p≤0.01**. EGFP-dsh/+; dcoK38R and EGFP-dsh/dsh were not significantly different to each other, but EGFP-dsh/+; dcoK38R was significantly different from the control (EGFP-dsh/+). (E–G) Flies were dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh stbm6/stbm6 (n = 12), and dshV26/+; P[acman]-EGFP-dsh stbm6/stbm6 en-GAL4; UAS-dcoK38R/+ (n = 7). Data are normalised to the total intensity in EGFP-Dsh. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals, and unpaired t-tests were used to compare levels between samples with and without DcoK38R, p≤0.05*, p≤0.001***.

Regulation of Dsh phosphorylation by Dco.
(A,C) Western blots probed with Dsh antibody, of extracts from pupal wings of wild-type or dco2/dco5B2.6 flies (A), or UAS-dco/+; en-GAL4/+ flies, raised at 25°C for 28 hr APF (C). Two biological replicates are shown for each genotype. Note a decrease in levels of the upper (phosphorylated) band in dco2/dco5B2.6, and an increase in UAS-dco. α-Tubulin (A) or Actin (C) was used as a loading control. (A') Diagram to illustrate quantitation of phosphorylated and unphosphorylated Dsh. ImageJ was used to draw a box around each lane and to generate lane profiles. The peak intensities of the phosphorylated and unphosphorylated bands were measured (red lines). Phosphorylated and unphosphorylated proteins were not well enough separated to quantitate absolute band intensities. (B,D) Quantitation of phosphorylated and unphosphorylated Dsh, from western blots with four biological replicates of wild-type, or dco2/dco5B2.6 flies (B), or UAS-dco/+; en-GAL4/+ flies (D). The graphs show the ratio of the peak intensity of each band. Ratios were compared using an unpaired t-test, p≤0.001***.

FRAP analysis of Stbm in dco mutant backgrounds.
(A) Diagram illustrating the conserved phosphorylation sites mutated in DshST8 (orange box). Also shown are the DIX, PDZ and DEP domains, and a conserved basic region (b). (B,C) Total amounts (B) or stable fraction (C) of Dsh-GFP or DshST8-GFP in 28 hr APF pupal wings after hub-and-spoke FRAP. Flies were in a dshV26 mutant background. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals. (B) Junctional intensities were compared using an unpaired t-test, no significant difference was seen. Note that these constructs were P element insertions and thus are likely to be expressed at different levels. This means that we cannot determine if DshST8-GFP levels are reduced, as would be expected considering the effect of dominant negative Dco on wild-type Dsh. (C) The fluorescence recovery was fitted to an exponential curve for each genotype, and the graph shows the stable fraction (1-Ymax). Stable fractions were compared using an extra sum-of-squares F test, p≤0.01**.

Model for how Pk and phosphorylation of Stbm regulate complex sorting and clustering.
(A) Pk regulates complex sorting by destabilising Fz, in a Dsh-dependent manner (Warrington et al., 2017). (B) Pk also acts via Stbm to stabilise Fz (red arrow, Warrington et al., 2017). Our new data suggest that Pk promotes Stbm stability by protecting Stbm from phosphorylation by Dco. Furthermore, phosphorylation of Dsh (yellow stars) by Dco promotes Dsh stability. (C) When Stbm is hyperphosphorylated (yellow stars) it is more mobile and promotes complex sorting.
