Lipid rafts are specialized compartments of the plasma membrane enriched in cholesterol and glycosphingolipids. Numerous signaling and cytoskeletal proteins are found in these subdomains, suggesting that they may act as organizing centers for signal transduction, particularly for insulin (Anderson, 1998
; Schlegel et al., 1998
; Watson and Pessin, 2001
; Bickel, 2002
; Saltiel and Pessin, 2002
, 2003
). Both the insulin receptor and TC10 reside in lipid rafts (Yamamoto et al., 1998
; Gustavsson et al., 1999
; Nystrom et al., 1999
; Watson et al., 2001
; Kimura et al., 2002
; Vainio et al., 2002
), and the mistargeting of TC10 to a nonlipid raft domain prevents its activation by insulin and blocks insulin action (Watson et al., 2001
; Kanzaki and Pessin, 2002
; Chunqiu Hou and Pessin, 2003
; Watson et al., 2003
).

Cell Culture and Electroporation of 3T3L1 Adipocytes
The 3T3L1 fibroblasts were grown in DMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and differentiated into adipocytes as described (Baumann et al., 2000
). The 3T3L1 adipocytes were transfected with stealth RNA interference (RNAi) duplexes (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) by electroporation. In brief, adipocytes at day 2 of differentiation were detached from culture dishes with 0.25% trypsin, washed twice, and resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Approximately 5 x 106 cells (half of the cells from one p150 dish) were mixed with RNAi duplexes, which were delivered to the cells by electroporation with a Bio-Rad gene pulser II system (Richmond, CA; 0.16 kV and 960 µF). After electroporation, cells were mixed with medium for 10 min before replating.
Immunoprecipitation and Immunoblotting
Cells were lysed with HNTG buffer using 1% Triton X-100. Lysates were incubated with the indicated antibodies for 2 h at 4°C. The immune-complexes were precipitated with protein A or G agarose beads (Amersham Pharmacia, Piscataway, NJ) and washed with lysis buffer. The samples were resolved in 4-20% gradient SDS-PAGE and analyzed by immunoblotting. All immunoblots were developed by enhanced chemiluminesence (Amersham Pharmacia).
Immunofluorescence Microscopy
For immunofluorescence studies, cells were processed as described (Kimura et al., 2001
, 2002
; Liu et al., 2005
). To make plasma membrane sheets, cells were treated for 5 min with the Triton extraction buffer (50 mM MES, pH 6.0, 150 mM NaCl, 0.25% Triton X-100, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2) before fixation. To detect myc-Exo70, cells were stained with anti-myc mAb or polyclonal antibody (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). To detect HA-TC10, cells were stained with anti-HA mAb (Santa Cruz Biotechnology). After incubation with primary antibodies, cells were incubated with Alexa488 or Alexa594 goat anti-mouse or anti-rabbit immunoglobulin (IgG), obtained from Molecular Probes (Invitrogen, Eugene, OR). Images were captured by using an Olympus FV300 confocal laser scanning microscope (Melville, NY).
Expression Constructs
To generate a mammalian expression vector, full-length Sec8 was subcloned into the pKH3 vector. YFP-mycSAP97 construct was a gift from Dr. Benjamin Margolis (University of Michigan). The His-tagged proteins Sec8 and its
4aa deletion mutant were cloned into a pET15b vector.
2-Deoxyglucose Uptake Assay
The RNAi-transfected cells were reseeded on 12-well plates and cultured for 4 d. After incubation with DMEM containing 0.5% FBS for 3 h, cell were washed with Krebs-Ringer buffer (130 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 1.3 mM CaCl2, 1.3 mM MgSO4, 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4) and incubated with or without insulin for 30 min. Glucose uptake was initiated by addition of [14C]2-deoxy-D-glucose to a final assay concentration of 100 µM for 5 min and terminated by three washes with ice-cold PBS, the cells were solubilized with 0.1% SDS, and [14C] was determined by scintillation counting.
Sucrose Gradient Centrifugation
3T3L1 adipocytes were homogenized in HES buffer (20 mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 250 mM sucrose, 1 mM EDTA) with a Dounce homogenizer. After homogenization, cells were centrifuged at 800 x g and the supernatant was centrifuged at 15,000 x g to produce a total plasma membrane fraction. Total plasma membrane fraction was solubilized in 0.3 ml of 0.2% Triton X-100 in MBS, and made up to 0.4 ml with MBS. These samples were mixed with 0.4 ml of 80% sucrose (wt/vol), and overlaid with 3.5 ml of 30%, 1 ml of 5% sucrose. The gradient was centrifuged at 150,000 x g for 19 h, and 440-µl fractions were collected from the top of each gradient.
PDZ Domain Array
His-tagged Sec8 wild-type and Sec8
4aa mutant protein were prepared as previously described (Taylor et al., 2000
). TranSignal PDZ Domain Arrays (Panomics, Redwood City, CA) were used as instructed.

50% compared with the control scrambled RNAi oligo. This inhibitory effect of knocking down Exo70 was seen at all concentrations of insulin. Similar results were observed using two other RNAi oligos targeting two distinct sequences of Exo70 (unpublished data). Importantly, knockdown of Exo70 did not evoke any change in cell shape or proliferation, expression of insulin receptor or Glut4, or insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt (Figure 1, C-E). It should also be pointed out that it is uncertain whether total protein changes reflect fractional changes in all cells or large changes in fractions of cells.

Insulin Controls the Localization of the Exocyst Complex
To evaluate the role of lipid rafts in coordinating the assembly of the exocyst complex, we performed a number of immunohistochemistry and fractionation experiments to assay the localization of exocyst proteins in these microdomains. Differentiated 3T3L1 adipocytes were transfected with cDNAs expressing HA-TC10 and its mutants, along with myc-Exo70 and caveolin-eGFP as a marker of lipid rafts. The cells were then stimulated with insulin, and plasma membrane sheets were prepared by a triton extraction method that leaves only lipid raft proteins on the cover glass (Watson et al., 2001
). As previously reported (Watson et al., 2001
; Chiang et al., 2002
), both caveolin and TC10 constitutively reside in detergent-extracted sheets derived from untreated and insulin-stimulated cells. Exo70 protein was not detected in these sheets in untreated cells, but was found in sheets from cells treated with insulin. Moreover, coexpression with constitutively active TC10 (Q67L) produced the localization of Exo70 at lipid rafts even without insulin stimulation (Figure 2A). Although we are unable to detect endogenous Sec8, we transfected cells with Myc- or HA-tagged Sec8 and treated cells with or without insulin. Insulin stimulated the translocation of Sec8 to the plasma membrane. This effect of the hormone was mimicked by cotransfection of cells with constitutively active TC10 (Supplementary Figure 1).
|
To analyze the kinetics of this effect of insulin in more detail, we performed a time course of insulin stimulation. After hormone treatment, the plasma membranes were purified and fractionated further on sucrose gradients, and the raft and nonraft fractions were pooled before immunoblotting. Although the proteins residing in the nonraft fractions did not change as a consequence of insulin stimulation, treatment of cells with insulin produced the rapid and transient translocation of both Exo70 and Sec8 into the lipid raft fraction. This effect of insulin was maximal at 5 min and declined thereafter (Figure 2C).
Glut4 Vesicles Transit through Lipid Rafts before Fusion
Glut4-containing vesicles translocate to the plasma membrane in response to insulin stimulation (Saltiel and Kahn, 2001
). However, whether these vesicles are targeted to discrete sites on the plasma membrane is not known. Because the exocyst appears to assemble in large part at lipid rafts, we sought to evaluate whether Glut4 might be targeted to these microdomains early in the translocation process. Thus, to evaluate the kinetics of Glut4 translocation to the plasma membrane, we examined the time course of Glut4 translocation using the fractionation method described above and determined the concentration of Glut4 in lipid raft and nonlipid raft fractions of the plasma membrane after insulin stimulation (Figure 3A). Glut4 was rapidly translocated to rafts in response to insulin. This effect was observed in as little as 2 min and reached maximal levels 10 min after insulin stimulation. The translocation of Glut4 into raft fractions preceded the appearance of the protein in nonlipid raft fractions, where peak levels were detected 30 min after insulin stimulation. Thus, these data suggest two possible models: one in which Glut4 is initially translocated to lipid rafts, and then transits to nonraft fractions, perhaps after fusion of the vesicles, and a second in which there are two pools of Glut4, a fast pool targeted to rafts and a slower pool target to nonraft regions.

We next examined the effect of Exo70 knockdown on the translocation of Glut4 to detergent-extracted plasma membrane sheets. Cells were electroporated with Exo70 RNAi or a scrambled oligo and then treated with or without insulin for 10 min. In scrambled oligo-transfected cells, endogenous Glut4 and caveolin costained in circular rosette structures in plasma membrane sheets, suggesting that a subpopulation of Glut4 vesicles translocate to lipid rafts after insulin stimulation (Figure 3C). Knockdown of Exo70 disrupted the colocalization of Glut4 and caveolin in rosettes, suggesting that the exocyst complex selectively tethers Glut4 to lipid rafts in the early phase of insulin signaling.
We previously reported that an Exo70 mutant containing only the N-terminal sequences (Exo70-N) inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (Inoue et al., 2003
). To evaluate the mechanism of action of this mutant form of Exo70, we examined its localization in the plasma membrane. 3T3L1 adipocytes were electroporated with cDNAs encoding myc-Exo70-WT and myc-Exo70-N or a vector control and treated with or without insulin for 5 min. Subcellular localization of transfected and endogenous exocyst proteins was then evaluated by sucrose density gradient fractionation (Figure 4A). As shown above in untransfected cells, levels of Exo70, Sec8, and Glut4 were low in lipid raft fractions from unstimulated cells expressing Exo70-WT, but increased upon insulin stimulation. In contrast, the overexpression of myc-Exo70-N in adipocytes suppressed the insulin-dependent translocation of Exo70, Sec8, and Glut4 to lipid raft fractions. These data suggest that endogenous Exo70 and other components of the exocyst complex are competitively displaced from lipid rafts by overexpression of the dominant-negative form of the protein.

SAP97 is reportedly expressed in lipid rafts in muscle cells (Folco et al., 2004
). We explored the localization of SAP97 in 3T3L1 adipocytes by both immunostaining and sucrose density gradient fractionation. SAP97 clearly colocalized with caveolin in rosette structures in plasma membrane sheets (Figure 5B). Furthermore, we detected SAP97 in lipid raft fractions on sucrose density gradients (Figure 5C). There was little effect of insulin on the localization of SAP97.
To elucidate the functional significance of SAP97 as a binding partner of the exocyst protein Sec8, we knocked down SAP97 using RNAi oligo (Figure 6A). Knockdown of the SAP97 protein by 80% caused a marked reduction in the levels of both Sec8 and Exo70 in lipid rafts after insulin stimulation. Moreover, this reduction in SAP97 levels caused a blockade of the insulin-stimulated translocation of Sec8, Exo70, and Glut4 into lipid rafts, although the total amounts of these proteins in cell lysates were not altered (Figure 6B). Interestingly, the decreased content of the exocyst proteins in lipid rafts was accompanied by a significant increase of these proteins in nonlipid raft domains.
|
As a further evaluation of specificity regarding the effects of knockdown of components of the exocyst complex and related proteins, we first evaluated levels of insulin receptor in plasma membrane fractions (Supplementary Figure S2). As expected, receptor levels were diminished after treatment of cells with insulin for 10 min, due to internalization of the receptor. However, knockdown of Exo70, SAP97, Sec6, or Sec8 had no effect on insulin receptor levels in this plasma membrane fraction. We also evaluated the activation of the MAP (mitogen-activated protein) kinase pathway by insulin via assay of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation (Supplementary Figure S3). Knockdown of this same collection of exocyst proteins had not effect on the phosphorylation of ERK in response to insulin.
| DISCUSSION |

Why are lipid raft microdomains crucial to the downstream actions of insulin? One possible explanation is that TC10 effectors are targeted to these regions as sites for Glut4 docking and fusion. The exocyst protein Exo70 binds specifically to activated TC10 in an insulin-dependent manner (Inoue et al., 2003
). This interaction results in the assembly of components of the exocyst complex, which plays a critical role in the targeting of the Glut4 vesicle to the plasma membrane, perhaps by directing the vesicle to the precise site of fusion. To understand how the exocyst complex is stabilized in these domains, we searched for Sec8 binding partners and identified SAP97, a member of the MAGUKs family of proteins. SAP97 is expressed in lipid rafts in adipocytes, suggesting that by anchoring Sec8 it might stabilize the exocyst complex in these microdomains. In this regard, knockdown of SAP97 disrupted the exocyst complex in lipid rafts and decreased insulin-stimulated translocation of Glut4 to lipid rafts, accompanied by decreased glucose uptake.
The presence of Glut4 in lipid rafts has been controversial (Bickel, 2002
). Biochemical isolation and immunogold electron microscopy of plasma membranes revealed the transient localization of Glut4 immunoreactivity in lipid rafts after insulin stimulation of 3T3L1 adipocytes (Scherer et al., 1994
; Gustavsson et al., 1996
; Karlsson et al., 2002
), although others found no evidence for Glut4 in lipid rafts (Voldstedlund et al., 1993
; Kandror et al., 1995
). Although this discrepancy might be the result of different methodologies, it seems possible that Glut4 initially docks and fuses at lipid rafts, due to the assembly of the exocyst in this microdomain, and then transits into nonraft domains. This idea is supported by data presented in Figure 3, in which lipid raft-association of Glut4 tended to precede the appearance of nonraft transporter. On the other hand, it is also possible that there are two populations of Glut4-containing vesicles, a rapidly docking pool that is directed to lipid rafts and another slower pool targeted to nonlipid rafts. In either case, the temporal and spatial compartmentalization of the exocyst complex to lipid raft subdomains appears to be critical to the docking and fusion of Glut4 at the cell surface.
