Abstract
Phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) is a glycolytic enzyme that moonlights as a cytokine under the aliases autocrine motility factor (AMF), neuroleukin and maturation factor. The cytokine function of PGI/AMF targets multiple cell types however mechanisms that regulate and sequester this ubiquitous, circulating cytokine remain largely unidentified. PGI/AMF is shown here to exhibit fibronectin (FN)-dependent cell surface association at both neutral and acid pH. Direct PGI/AMF binding to FN and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between PGI/AMF and FN were detected only at pH 5. At neutral pH, the interaction of PGI/AMF with FN is receptor-mediated requiring prior clathrin-dependent endocytosis. PGI/AMF and FN do not co-internalize and PGI/AMF undergoes a second round of endocytosis upon recycling to the plasma membrane indicating that recycling PGI/AMF receptor complexes associate with FN fibrils. Heparan sulphate does not affect cell association of PGI/AMF at neutral pH but enhances the FN-independent cell surface association of PGI/AMF at acid pH identifying two distinct mechanisms for PGI/AMF sequestration under acidic conditions. However, only PGI/AMF sequestration by FN at acid pH was able to stimulate cell motility upon pH neutralization identifying FN as a pH-dependent cytokine trap for PGI/AMF. The multiple ways of cellular association of PGI/AMF may represent acquired mechanisms to regulate and harness the cytokine function of PGI/AMF.Keywords
