OS-9 was originally identified as gene that is amplified in osteosarcomas [1] [2], and was later found to bind N- copine and to be involved in the ER-to-Golgi transport of meprin-beta [3]. Interestingly, OS-9 is also involved in the TLR-regulated ER-to-Golgi translocation of DC-STAMP, an ER-resident four- to seven-transmembrane protein preferentially expressed in antigen-presenting dendritic cells [4]. OS-9 also binds LUMAN, an ER-resident transciption factor that also interacts with DC-STAMP and is activated upon TLR signaling [5]. Taken together, these data indicate that OS-9 is generally involved in ER-to-Golgi transport and may be involved in a pathway linking TLR signaling and intracellular transport.

Other data suggest that OS-9 is a lectin in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Quality Control Compartment (ERQC) that bind proteins with major folding defect and targets them to translocation to the cytosol and degradation through ubiquitinalation. Proteins with folding defect accumulate in the ERQC [6] where they interact with various lectines and mannosidases, that determine whether the folding defect can be corrected or not. The proteins targeted for degradation are modified with a particular N-glycan composed by 5 or 6 mannoses (it could be useful to remind that almost all the proteins in the ER are N-glycosylated), which is recognized by OS9.

 

Disease relevance of OS9

 

High impact information on OS9

  • These data indicate that OS-9 is an essential component of a multiprotein complex that regulates HIF-1alpha levels in an O2-dependent manner [9].
  • We characterized OS-9 and found that it is associated with ER membranes and that it is exposed to the cytoplasm [3].
  • OS-9 is involved in the ER-to-Golgi transport of DC-STAMP in response to TLR signaling in dendritic cells, the professional antigen presenting cell of our immune system [4].
  • OS-9 interacts with, and possibly regulates, transcription factor LUMAN, which also interacts with DC-STAMP; LUMAN resides in the ER of dendritic cells when inactive, but translocates to the nucleus upon proteolytic activation during innate immune signaling [5].
  • These results reveal that OS-9 is a potential target of N-copine [10].
  • We further revealed that the second C2 domain of N-copine bound with the carboxy-terminal region of OS-9 [10].
  • OS-9 was co-amplified with CDK4 in three of five sarcoma tissues [2].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of OS9

 

Biological context of OS9

  • We now report further characterization of the full-length OS-9 cDNA sequence consists of 2785 bp from which an open reading frame (ORF) with 667 amino-acid residues was deduced, The predicted polypeptide was water soluble and acidic [2].
  • Possible involvement of the OS-9 gene in cell growth is discussed [1].
  • We have identified another antigen of LG2-MEL as a peptide presented by HLA-B*4403 and resulting from a point mutation in gene OS-9 [8].
  • The mutation we have identified in gene OS-9 might therefore participate in the oncogenic process by affecting the function of this potential tumor-suppressor gene [8].
 

Anatomical context of OS9

 

Associations of OS9 with chemical compounds

  • The mutation, a C-to-T transition, changes a proline residue into a leucine at position 446 of the OS-9 protein [8].
  • OS-9 activity does not require an intact mannose 6-P homology domain [11].
 

Physical interactions of OS9

  • By using yeast two-hybrid assays, we identified OS-9 as a protein capable of interacting with N-copine [10].
  • OS-9 interacts with the cytoplasmic tail of DC-STAMP, as determined by yeast two-hybrid assays and co-immunoprecipitation analysis [4]
  • OS-9 interacts with the cytoplasmic part of the transcription factor LUMAN, as determined by co-immunoprecipitation analysis [5]
 

Other interactions of OS9

  • Here, we demonstrate that OS-9, the protein product of a widely expressed gene, interacts with both HIF-1alpha and HIF-1alpha prolyl hydroxylases [9].
