  • Many secreted proteins have disulfide bonds that are important for their structure and function. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI, EC 5.3.1.4.), an enzyme that catalyzes the formation and rearrangement of thiol/disulfide exchange reactions, is a resident of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The subcellular localization and its function as catalyst of disulfide bond formation in the biosynthesis of secretory and cell membrane proteins suggest that PDI plays a key role in the secretory pathway. We have isolated a cDNA encoding protein disulfide isomerase from Bombyx mori(bPDI). It has been characterized under ER stress conditions (dominantly induced by calcium ionophore A23187, tunicamycin and DTT), which is known to cause an accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER. Furthermore, It has also been examined for tissue distribution(pronounced at the fat body), hormonal regulation (juvenile hormone, insulin and juvenile +transferrin; however, it is not effected by transferrin alone), and the effect of exogenous bacteria (peak at 16 h after infection) on the bPDI mRNA expression. The results suggest that bPDI is a member of the ER stress protein group, and it may play an important role in exogenous bacterial infection in fat body, and that homones regulate its expression.

  • The protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) reaction kinetics has been studied to evaluate its effect on the monoclonal antibody (Mab) refolding and assembly which accompanies disulfide bend formation. The MAb in vitro assembly experiments showed that the assembly rate of heavy and light chains can be greatly enhanced in the presence of PDI as compared to the rate of assembly obtained by the air-oxidation. The reassembly patterns of MAb in-termediates were identical for both with and without PDI, suggesting that the PDI does not determine the MAb assembly pathway, but rather facilitates the rate of MAb assembly by promoting PDI catalyzed disulfide bond formation. The effect of growth rate on PDI activities for MAb production has also been examined by using continuous culture system. The specific MAb productivity of hybridoma cells decreased as the growth rate increased. However, PDI activities were nearly constant fur a wide range of growth rates except very high growth rate, indicating that no direct correlation between PDI activity and specific MAb productivity exists.

  • Fate of the nascent thyrolglobulin (Tg) molecule is characterized by multimerization. To establish the formation of Tg multimers, the partially unfolded/reduced Tg or deoxycholate-treated/ reduced Tg was subjected to protein disulfide isomerase (PDI)-mediated multimerization. Oxidized glutathione/PDI-mediated formation of multimeric Tg forms, requiring at least an equivalent molar ratio of PDI/Tg monomer, decreased with increasing concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH), suggesting the oxidizing role of PDI. Additional support was obtained when PDI alone, at a PDI/Tg molar ratio of 0.3, expressed a rapid multimerization. Independently, the exposure of partially unfolded Tg to GSH resulted in Tg multimerization, enhanced by PDI, according to thiol-disulfide exchange. Though to a lower extent, a similar result was observed with the dimerization of deoxycholate-pretreated Tg monomer. Consequently, it is implied that intermolecular disulfide linkage may be facilitated at a limited region of unfolded Tg. In an attempt to examine the multimerization site, the cysteine residue-rich fragments of the Tg were subjected to GSH-induced multimerization; a 50 kDa fragment, containing three vicinal dithiols, was multimerized, while an N-terminal domain was not. Present results suggest that the oxidase as well as isomerase function of PDI may be involved in the multimerization of partially unfolded Tg or deoxycholate-treated Tg.

  • The protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family is a group of multifunctional endoplasmic reticulum (ER) enzymes that mediate the formation of disulfide bonds, catalyze the cysteine-based redox reactions and assist the quality control of client proteins. Recent structural and functional studies have demonstrated that PDI members not only play an essential role in the proteostasis in the ER but also exert diverse effects in numerous human disorders including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Increasing evidence suggests that PDI is actively involved in the proliferation, survival, and metastasis of several types of cancer cells. Although the molecular mechanism by which PDI contributes to tumorigenesis and metastasis remains to be understood, PDI is now emerging as a new therapeutic target for cancer treatment. In fact, several attempts have been made to develop PDI inhibitors as anti-cancer drugs. In this review, we discuss the properties and diverse functions of human PDI proteins and focus on recent findings regarding their roles in the state of diseases including cancer and neurodegeneration.

  • In an attempt to increase production of LK8, an 86-amino-acid kringle fragment of human apolipoprotein(a) with three disulfide linkages, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) was coexpressed in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae harboring the LK8 gene in the chromosome. Whereas overexpression of the LK8 gene without coexpressing PDI was detrimental to both host cell growth and LK8 production, coexpression of PDI increased the LK8 production level by 2.5-fold in batch cultivation and 5.0-fold in fed-batch cultivation compared with the control strain carrying only the genomic PDI gene.

  • Apoptotic signals are typically accompanied by activation of aspartate-specific cysteine proteases called caspases, and caspase-3 and -7 play crucial roles in the execution of apoptosis. Previously, using the proteomic approach, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) was found to be a candidate substrate of caspase-7. This abundant 55 kDa protein introduces disulfide bonds into proteins (via its oxidase activity) and catalyzes the rearrangement of incorrect disulfide bonds (via its isomerase activity). PDI is abundant in the ER but is also found in non-ER locations. In this study we demonstrated that PDI is cleaved by caspase-3 and -7 in vitro. In addition, in vivo experiment showed that it is cleaved during etoposide-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells. Subcellular fractionation showed that PDI was also present in the cytosol. Furthermore, only cytosolic PDI was clearly digested by caspase-3 and -7. It was also confirmed by confocal image analysis that PDI and caspase-7 partially co-localize in both resting and apoptotic MCF-7 cells. Overexpression of cytosolic PDI (ER retention sequence deleted) inhibited cell death after an apoptotic stimulus. These data indicate that cytosolic PDI is a substrate of caspase-3 and -7, and that it has an anti-apoptotic action.

  • Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) catalyzes the oxidation of disulfides and the isomerizatiob of incorrect disulfides in new polypeptides during folding in the oxidizing environment of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To increase recombinant protein hSCF (human stem cell factor) production, we have developed expression system using the Bombyx mori PDI (bPDI) as a fusion partner. bPDI gene fusion was found to improve the production of recombinant hSCFs. Thus, we conclude that bPDI gene fusion will be very useful for the large-scale production of biologically active recombinant proteins.

  • The nascent thyroglobulin (Tg) multimer molecule, which is generated during the initial fate of Tg in ER, undergoes the rapid reductive depolymerization. In an attempt to determine the depolymerization process, various types of Tg multimers, which were generated from deoxy­cholate-treated/reduced Tg, partially unfolded Tg or partially unfolded/reduced Tg, were subjected to various GSH (reduced glutathione) reducing systems using protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), glutathione reductase (GR), glutaredoxin or thioredoxin reductase. The Tg multimers generated from deoxycholate-treated/reduced Tg were depolymerized readily by the PDI/GSH system, which is consistent with the reductase activity of PDI. The PDI/GSH-induced depolymerization of the Tg multimers, which were generated from either partially unfolded Tg or partially unfolded/reduced Tg, required the simultaneous inclusion of glutathione reductase, which is capable of reducing glutathionylated mixed disulfide (PSSG). This suggests that PSSG was generated during the Tg multimerization stage or its depolymerization stage. In particular, the thioredoxin/thioredoxin reductase system or glutaredoxin system was also effective in depolymerizing the Tg multimers generated from the unfolded Tg. Overall, under the net GSH condition, the depolymerization of Tg multimers might be mediated by PDI, which is assisted by other reductive enzymes, and the mechanism for depolymerizing the Tg multimers differs according to the type of Tg multimer containing different degrees and types of disulfide linkages.

  • Most proteins produced in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of eukaryotic cells fold via disulfide formation (oxidative folding). Oxidative folding is catalyzed by protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and PDI-related ER protein thiol disulfide oxidoreductases (ER oxidoreductases). In yeast and mammals, ER oxidoreductin-1s (ERO1s) supply oxidizing equivalent to the active centers of PDI. We previously identified and characterized the ERO1 of Bombyx mori (bERO1) as a thioredoxin-like protein that shares primary sequence homology with other ERO1s. Here we compare the reactivation of inactivated rRNase and sRNase by bERO1, and show that bERO1 and bPDI cooperatively refold denatured RNase A. This is the first result suggesting that bERO1 plays an essential role in ER quality control through the combined activities of bERO1 and bPDI as a catalyst of protein folding in the ER and sustaining cellular redox homeostasis.
