ABSTRACT
Drosophila gp93 was identified as the ortholog of the mammalian endoplasmic reticulum-resident chaperone gp96. gp93 was found capable of rescuing gp96 client proteins, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and integrins, in a gp96-deficient murine cell line. Mammalian gp96 was further found to require the cochaperone canopy 3 (CNPY3) for proper folding and expression of TLRs, but not integrins. In Drosophila, two possible CNPY family members have been identified but have not yet been characterized. Therefore, we sought to determine the role of Drosophila CNPYa and CNPYb in gp93 biology. Because of higher similarities between CNPY3 and CNPYb, we postulated that CNPYb would be a TLR-specific cochaperone of gp93. Indeed, CNPYb addition in gp93-expressing cells improved TLR expression. CNPYb and gp93 were further found to physically interact. Mutational analysis of cysteine residues in CNPYb identified differential dependence of these cysteines in chaperone function. Our study is the first to characterize Drosophila CNPY molecules. We further uncover more gp93 biology by identifying CNPYb as a cochaperone. A better understanding of this simpler Drosophila system will enable application to the mammalian system, such as has been done with Escherichia coli, yeast, and mammalian HSP90.
