摘要


Neurexins, a family of neuronal cell-surface proteins, consist of the longer alpha-neurexins (I alpha, II alpha, and III alpha) and the shorter beta-neurexins (I beta and II beta) with identical C termini but distinct N termini. alpha-Neurexins have the structure of cell surface receptors, but the membrane topology and conservation of beta-neurexins is unknown. We have now characterized cDNA clones encoding bovine neurexins I beta and III beta, thereby demonstrating the presence of a beta-form for neurexin III and the evolutionary conservation of beta-neurexins in mammals. Similar to alpha-neurexins, beta-neurexins were found to be highly O-glycosylated after expression by transfection in COS cells, suggesting that alpha- and beta-neurexins utilize the same O-glycosylation cassette and have similar transmembrane orientations. To determine if beta-neurexins contain a cleaved or uncleaved signal sequence for membrane translocation, beta-neurexin-IgG fusion proteins were expressed in COS cells, and their N termini were directly sequenced. This revealed that the N terminus of all three beta-neurexins contains an unusual cleaved signal sequence. Together our data show that all known neurexin genes generate alpha and beta forms with similar transmembrane organizations and receptor-like structures. Due to the presence of a long atypical cleaved signal peptide, beta-neurexins contain only a short unique sequence before splicing into the alpha-neurexin sequence. Thus, beta-neurexins are essentially N terminally truncated alpha-neurexins.
