The actin cytoskeleton is critical for many fundamental cellular processes such as cell morphology, motility, and cytokinesis (Pollard and Borisy, 2003; Rodriguez et al., 2003). Growing evidence indicates that the actin cytoskeleton plays an important role in endocytosis (Qualmann et al., 2000; Schafer, 2002; Engqvist-Goldstein and Drubin, 2003; Kaksonen et al., 2003). Actin regulatory proteins such as neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP), cortactin, and Abp1 bind to endocytic proteins such as syndapin, dynamin, and intersectin and are recruited to endocytic active zones (Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Hussain et al., 2001; Kessels et al., 2001; Kessels and Qualmann, 2002; Cao et al., 2003; Otsuki et al., 2003). However, the role of the actin cytoskeleton in endocytosis is poorly understood. Recent work has revealed that both invagination and scission of clathrin-coated vesicles and local actin polymerization are highly coordinated, resulting in the efficient formation of coated vesicles (Merrifield et al., 2002, 2005).
The FER-CIP4 homology (FCH) domain is found in the pombe Cdc15 homology (PCH) family protein members and is highly conserved from yeast to mammals (Aspenstrom, 1997; Lippincott and Li, 2000). Most PCH proteins have the Src homology 3 (SH3) domain at the COOH terminus. PCH family members, including CIP4; formin-binding protein 17 (FBP17); Toca-1; syndapins/PACSINs; cdc15; and proline-serine-threonine phosphatase–interacting proteins (PSTPIPs), are known to be involved in cytoskeletal and endocytic events (Fankhauser et al., 1995; Spencer et al., 1997; Modregger et al. 2000; Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Kamioka et al., 2004; Ho et al., 2004; Chitu et al., 2005). Syndapins/PACSINs and FBP17 are implicated in endocytosis by their abilities to bind to dynamin via their SH3 domain (Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Kamioka et al., 2004). In particular, FBP17 induces tubular membrane invagination, suggesting that this protein generates the membrane curvature necessary for dynamin-dependent endocytosis (Kamioka et al., 2004). In this regard, syndapins/PACSINs have been predicted to be potential BAR domain–containing proteins (Peter et al., 2004).
Interestingly, several PCH family members have been shown to bind to both WASP/N-WASP and dynamin, indicating that the PCH family is involved in actin cytoskeleton reorganization associated with membrane fission or protrusion (Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Ho et al., 2004; Kakimoto et al., 2004). All PCH proteins possess a highly conserved region that includes and extends beyond the FCH domain. The conserved region includes a predicated coiled–coil region, suggesting that this region is a novel functional domain. However, the exact functions of this region are unknown. We term this region the extended FC (EFC) domain and show that the EFC domain binds to phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI[4,5]P2). The EFC domain shows weak homology to the BAR domain, and the EFC domain alone tubulates liposomes in vitro. Importantly, the EFC domain–containing protein FBP17 is directly involved in EGF internalization, including plasma membrane invagination and actin polymerization, via recruitment of dynamin-2 and N-WASP.

100–200 aa (Fig. 1 C and Fig. S1, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200508091/DC1). Interestingly, this region showed weak homology to the BAR domain (Fig. S1). Residues inside of the helix packing of the BAR domain are well conserved (Peter et al., 2004; Fig. S1). As expected, the coiled–coil region contributed to dimer formation of this region as determined by chemical cross-linking analysis (unpublished data). The basic amino acid residues of the BAR and the ENTH domain are essential for binding and tubulation of liposomes (Itoh et al., 2001; Ford et al., 2002; Peter et al., 2004). To determine if the basic amino acid residues of this extended domain are involved in the binding to liposomes, we performed mutagenesis analysis. Some sites composed of basic residues are conserved in the extended domain (Fig. 1 C). Therefore, we mutated these basic amino acid to Gln. Interestingly, expression of the K33Q + R35Q, K51Q + K52Q, or R113Q + K114Q mutant did not induce membrane tubulation in cells compared with that of wild-type extended domain (Fig. 1, D and E). In contrast, the K138Q + R139Q or K171Q + R173Q mutant induced tubulation similar to that of the wild-type extended domain (Fig. 1 E). Expression of other PCH proteins including CIP4 (1–300 aa), PSTPIP1 (1–415 aa), and PSTPIP2 (1–337 aa) also resulted in membrane tubulation in cells (Fig. 2 A). However, expression of FER (aa 1–300) resulted in little tubulation (Fig. 2 A). In FER, amino acid residues corresponding to K33, K51, and K52 of FBP17 are not conserved, but those corresponding to R113 and K114 are conserved (Fig. 1 C). K33 and K51, but not R113/R114, are conserved between the BAR domain and the extended domain (Fig. S1). The relation between sequence conservation and tubulation ability indicates that this region is evolutionally and functionally conserved and is related to the BAR domain. Because a portion of this region includes the FCH domain, we termed the entire conserved region the EFC domain, which is located at the NH2 terminus (Fig. 2 B).

50% of total lipids), and the EFC domain of FBP17 bound to PS-containing liposomes (Fig. 3, A and B). However, it did not bind to lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphocholine, or sphingosine-1-phosphate (unpublished data). The dissociation constant (Kd) of the EFC domain for PI(4,5)P2 binding was determined with a dual polarization interferometer and was found to be 395.3 nM, comparable to those of the PLC
1 PH and the epsin ENTH domains, which are known to bind PI(4,5)P2 with high affinity (Itoh et al., 2001; Ford et al., 2002; Fig. 3 C).

The EFC domain alone tubulates protein-free liposomes in vitro
Expression of the EFC domain strongly induced membrane tubulation in cells, and it showed high affinity for phosphoinositides. We next examined whether it can deform artificial liposomes composed of brain or synthetic lipids, including PI(4,5)P2. The PLC1 PH domain, which binds to PI(4,5)P2 with high affinity, did not alter the shape of brain liposomes (Fig. 4 A). In contrast, the EFC domain of FBP17 induced tubulation of brain liposomes (Fig. 4 A), as did the BAR domain of amphiphysin2/Bin1 (Amph2; Razzaq et al., 2001; Lee et al., 2002). The tubulation of liposomes by the EFC domain and by the BAR domain was confirmed by electron microscopy (Fig. 4 B). The diameter of tubules induced by the EFC domain of FBP17 (200 nm) was larger than that of tubules induced by the BAR domain of Amph2 (50 nm; Peter et al., 2004). Because the EFC domain bound strongly to PI(4,5)P2, it was incubated with PI(4,5)P2-supplemented brain liposomes (although brain lipids themselves contain a small amount of PI[4,5]P2). Increased PI(4,5)P2 concentration enhanced the tubulation of brain lipids by the EFC domain; very long liposome tubules, up to 60 µm in length, were formed upon the addition of PI(4,5)P2 (Fig. 4 C).

1 PH domain at a one- or threefold molar excess to that of the EFC domain decreased liposome tubulation by the EFC domain (Fig. 4 D). Furthermore, overexpression of the PLC1PH domain in cells strongly inhibited the tubulation (Fig. 4 E), whereas high concentrations of wortmannin, which is a PI 3-kinase inhibitor, did not affect tubulation at all (not depicted). Because the PLC1PH domain competed with the EFC domain, these data indicate that the binding of the EFC domain to PI(4,5)P2 may enhance the membrane tubulation in cells and in vitro. We next examined the liposome tubulation by EFC mutants defective in the plasma membrane tubulation in cells. The K33Q + R35Q, K51Q + K52Q, and R113Q + K114Q mutants, which showed reduced lipid-binding ability, induced little tabulation (Fig. 4 F).
In addition, the EFC domains of CIP4 and PSTPIP1 strongly induced liposome tubulation (Fig. 4 G). The EFC domain of FER also induced tubulation; however, the efficiency was less than that of other EFC domains (Fig. 4 G). Decreased tubulation in vitro may reflect the lack of tubulation in cells expressing the EFC domain of FER (Fig. 2 A). These data indicate that the EFC domain alone can induce membrane tubule formation by interacting directly with the lipid bilayer.
FBP17 is required for endocytosis of EGF
FBP17 is thought to play a role in endocytosis (Kamioka et al., 2004). Therefore, we studied the involvement of the EFC domain of FBP17 in the endocytosis of EGF. The uptake of Texas red–labeled EGF was decreased in cells overexpressing FBP17 (Fig. 5 A). When we observed cells with strong FBP17 expression, Texas red–labeled EGF remained on the surface and associated with tubules, as reported previously (Kamioka et al., 2004). In contrast, EGF was internalized and observed as dots within the control cells (Fig. 5 A). Approximately 25% of FBP17-overexpressing cells showed a clear dots staining (Fig. 5 A, histogram). SH3 domain–deleted FBP17 also inhibited the endocytosis of EGF (Fig. 5 A). We next performed a quantitative assay that measures internalization of biotinylated EGF as a function of total bound biotinylated EGF. A small, but reproducible, reduction of internalization of EGF in total cells was observed upon expression of FBP17 under 20–30% of transfection efficiency (Fig. 5 B). Interestingly, this decrease appeared to be dependent on the entire EFC domain because the 1–56-aa deletion mutant did not inhibit endocytosis (Fig. 5, A and B).

FBP17 recruits N-WASP to the plasma membrane, where it activates actin polymerization
Recent studies have shown that FBP17 binds to dynamin-2 and to N-WASP (Kamioka et al., 2004; Kakimoto et al., 2004), both of which play important roles in endocytosis (Kessels and Qualmann, 2002; Otsuki et al., 2003; Merrifield et al., 2004; Praefcke and McMahon, 2004). Therefore, we examined whether FBP17 is colocalized with dynamin-2 and/or N-WASP. FBP17 that was expressed at a low level hardly induced tubulation. Instead, low-expressed FBP17 was localized to the plasma membrane of COS-7 cells in a punctate pattern (Fig. 6 A and Fig. S2, A and B, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200508091/DC1). FBP17 colocalized with dynamin-2 at the plasma membrane (Fig. S2 A). Moreover, FBP17 colocalized with EGF at the plasma membrane before the recruitment of Rab5, which is a marker protein for clathrin-coated vesicles/early endosomes (Zerial and McBride, 2001; Fig. S2 B), indicating that FBP17 functions in the early endocytic events, such as invagination. Importantly, FBP17 also colocalized with N-WASP at the plasma membrane at sites where actin polymerization was induced (Fig. 6 A). N-WASP is known to activate the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization. FBP17 also colocalized with Arp2 only at the cell periphery (Fig. 6 B). The SH3 domain of several EFC domain–containing proteins has been reported to bind to N-WASP (Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Ho et al., 2004; Kakimoto et al., 2004). The SH3-deleted FBP17 that was expressed at a low level was localized to the plasma membrane in a manner similar to wild-type FBP17, but did not colocalize with N-WASP, and actin polymerization was no longer observed (Fig. 6 C). Thus, FBP17 may function in endocytosis as an N-WASP activator, inducing actin polymerization via activation of the Arp2/3 complex.

The PCH protein family binds to N-WASP and dynamin-2
We examined the affinities of the SH3 domains of FBP17 and other PCH family proteins for N-WASP and dynamin-2. The SH3 domains of CIP4, FBP17, Toca-1, and PSTPIP1 bound to N-WASP and dynamin-2 (Fig. 7 A). In pull-down assays, N-WASP was more concentrated in SH3 domain precipitates than dynamin-2. (Fig. 7 B). The SH3 domains of CIP4, FBP17, Toca-1, and PSTPIP1 appear to bind to N-WASP and dynamin-2 in a similar manner. N-WASP and dynamin-2 form a protein complex in the early stage of endocytosis (Otsuki et al., 2003). FLAG-tagged N-WASP was expressed with or without GFP-tagged FBP17. The amount of dynamin-2 in anti-FLAG immunoprecipitates was significantly increased upon expression of FBP17 (Fig. 7 C), indicating that dimerized FBP17 physically links N-WASP and dynamin-2 (Fig. 7 B). However, many other proteins bind to the SH3 domains of these proteins (Fig. 7 A). These unidentified proteins may play important roles in regulating FBP17, CIP4, and Toca-1.

The SH3 domain of FBP17 and that of other EFC domain–containing proteins bind to dynamin-2 and N-WASP. Dimerized FBP17 recruited N-WASP and dynamin-2 simultaneously (Figs. 7 and 8). N-WASP and dynamin preferentially bind to PI(4,5)P2 (Ho et al., 2004; Praefcke and McMahon, 2004). The EFC domain of FBP17 binds to PI(4,5)P2 preferentially (Fig. 3). Therefore, these proteins form a functional complex at the PI(4,5)P2-rich plasma membrane. Thus, FBP17 may provide links between membrane invagination, fission, and actin polymerization, mediated by FBP17, dynamin-2, and N-WASP, respectively (Fig. S3, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200508091/DC1).
We found that FBP17 is required for EGF endocytosis by both knockdown and localization studies (Fig. S2 and Fig. 5). Importantly, both the EFC domain and the SH3 domain of FBP17 were required for the recruitment of N-WASP and dynamin-2 to the plasma membrane. Because tubulation induced by FBP17 expression is enhanced by decreasing the affinity of dynamin to FBP17 (Kamioka et al., 2004), and because increased amounts of N-WASP decreased tubulation (Fig. 9), the lack of appropriate binding partners for FBP17 may induce tabulation, presumably via the inhibition of fission of endocytic vesicles. Consistent with this idea, low-expressed FBP17 formed tubular structures when actin polymerization was blocked by latrunculin B treatment (Fig. 9, C and D). FBP17-induced tubulation was also enhanced by the inhibition of actin polymerization (unpublished data). The Arp2/3 complex was colocalized with FBP17-induced tubules only at the cell periphery (Fig. 6 B), also indicating that the lack of proper actin polymerization machinery caused the tubulation. Therefore, actin polymerization that occurs downstream of FBP17 may be essential for fission of endocytic vesicles, together with dynamin. Actually, the actin cytoskeleton is essential for the internalization step of endocytosis at the plasma membrane in yeast and mammals (Munn, 2001; Merrifield et al., 2002, 2005; Engqvist-Goldstein and Drubin, 2003). Dynamin plays an established role in the fission of endocytic vesicles (Takei et al., 1998; Hinshaw, 2000). Thus, imbalanced recruitment of dynamin-2 or of the actin polymerization machinery, including N-WASP, may induce the tubulation associated with FBP17 and other EFC domain–containing proteins. Other unidentified proteins that associated with the SH3 domains of PCH family proteins may also play important roles in endocytosis.
Although the EFC domain alone was able to deform membrane in vitro, it is still unclear whether the EFC domain alone can deform plasma membrane into tubules in cells because the amount of dynamin-2 or N-WASP or the inhibition of actin polymerization affects tubulation induced by the EFC domain (Fig. 9). Thus, it is possible that the EFC domain senses the curvature of endocytic vesicles for recruitment of N-WASP and dynamin-2. In this regard, it is interesting that the diameter of tubules induced by the EFC domain in vitro was larger than that induced by the amphiphysin BAR domain (Fig. 4 A; Peter et al., 2004). Differences in diameters may relate to differences in functions.
It has been reported that some PCH protein family members are involved in membrane-coupling processes, such as endocytosis, cell movement, and cytokinesis (Fankhauser et al., 1995; Qualmann and Kelly, 2000; Kessels and Qualmann, 2002; Kamioka et al., 2004; Chitu et al., 2005). Proteins containing the EFC domain may be involved in these shape changes involving both the membrane and cytoskeleton.

1, SH3 domains of FBP17 (553–609 aa), CIP4 (487–543 aa), Toca-1 (483–539 aa), and PSTPIP1 (362–415 aa) were obtained by RT-PCR. These sequences were confirmed, and then subcloned into pEGFP-C1 or pGEX vector (GE Healthcare). FBP17 (1–300 aa) were also subcloned into pCMV HA (CLONTECH Laboratories). The presence of GFP, Myc, and HA tag did not inhibit the tubulation of membrane in vivo. The pGEX-ENTH domain construct was made as described previously (Itoh et al., 2001). Mutagenesis was performed by PCR with mutated primers using Quikchange site-directed mutagenesis kit (Stratagene). Expression and purification of GST fusion proteins were performed using standard protocols. GST tag was cleaved from proteins by preScisson protease (GE Healthcare), but the presence of GST tag did not inhibit the binding or tubulation of liposomes.
Transfection, antibody, and immunofluorescence
COS-7 cells and A431 cells were cultured in DME containing 10% FCS. Transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Transfected cells on coverslips were fixed in 3.7% formaldehyde for 15 min, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 min, and immunostained with various antibodies. Texas red–conjugated EGF (Invitrogen) uptake was examined as previously described (Itoh et al., 2001). Human EGF was purchased from Invitrogen. Polyclonal anti–N-WASP antibody was used as described previously (Fukuoka et al., 2001). Monoclonal anti-FLAG antibody and latrunculin B were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Monoclonal anti-Myc antibody, polyclonal anti-EGFR, and anti–dynamin-2 antibodies were obtained from Santa Cruz Biotechnologies, Inc. Monoclonal anti–dynamin-2 and anti-CIP4 were purchased from BD Biosciences. Polyclonal anti-GFP antibody was purchased from MBL International Corporation. For visualization of actin filaments, Alexa Fluor 647–conjugated phalloidin (Invitrogen) was incubated with fixed cells for 30 min. Secondary antibodies conjugated with Alexa Fluor 488, 568, and 647 were obtained from Invitrogen.
Liposome and lipid binding assay
Liposome binding assay was performed as described previously (Lee et al., 2002). Liposomes were prepared as follows. PE/PC liposomes consisted of PE (70%), PC (20%), and 10% PI or various phosphoinositides. Brain liposome was made of total bovine brain lipids (Folch fraction 1; Sigma-Aldrich). PE, PC, PS, and PI were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. PI3P, PI4P, PI5P, PI(3,4)P2, PI(3,5)P2, and PI(3,4,5)P3 were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology. PI(4,5)P2 was obtained from Cell Signaling Technology and Echelon Bioscience, Inc. These lipid mixtures were resuspended at 1 mg/ml in 0.1 M sucrose, 20 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 100 mM KCl, and 1 mM EDTA. To remove aggregated proteins, purified proteins were subjected to centrifugation at 70,000 rpm for 15 min at 4°C in a TL 100 rotor (Beckman Coulter). 5 µg of proteins were incubated with 100 µg of liposomes in 100 µl of buffer for 15 min at RT and centrifuged at 60,000 rpm for 15 min at 25°C. Supernatants and pellets were subjected to SDS-PAGE and stained with Coomassie brilliant blue. The intensity of protein bands was measured using Image J software (National Institutes of Health). Lipid overlay assay was performed using PIP strip membrane purchased from Echelon Biosciences, Inc. The interaction of the EFC domain with PI(4,5)P2 using a dual polarization interferometer was investigated with Analight Bio 200 (Farfield Sensors, Ltd.) as described previously (Oikawa et al., 2004). The Kd values were calculated from curve fitting.
In vitro liposome tubulation assay
Liposome tubulation assay was performed as previously described, with some modifications (Farsad et al., 2001). Liposomes containing 95% brain lipid and 5% rhodamine-conjugated PE (rhodamine-PE); or 85% brain lipid, 5% rhodamine-PE, and 10% of the indicated lipid; or 70% PE, 15% PC, 5% rhodamine-PE, and 10% of the indicated lipid were suspended in 0.3 M sucrose, and large liposomes (up to 3 µm in diameter) were formed by vortexing. 0.1 mg/ml of purified proteins were incubated with 0.2 mg/ml of liposomes in buffer (20 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 100 mM KCl, and 1 mM EDTA) at RT for 2 min and immediately examined using confocal microscopy (Bio-Rad Laboratories). In vitro liposome tubulation assay was also performed by electron microscopy, as described previously (Farsad et al., 2001).
RNAi and RT-PCR
Stealth RNAi was purchased from Invitrogen. The siRNA sequence targeting as follows: FBP17, 5'-CCCACTTCATATGTCGAAGTCTGTT-3'; CIP4, 5'-GCAGTTGGAAGAACGCAGTCGTGAA-3'; Toca-1, 5'-GGCGCACAGAGTGTATGGTGAATTA-3'; and control random siRNA sequence, 5'-CCCTCGCACTGAGTCACCTTTGATT-3'. A431 cells were transfected with 10 µl of 20-µM siRNA and 4 µl of Oligofectamine reagent (Invitrogen) in a 6-well plate. After 24 h, a second transfection was performed, and the cells were cultured for 72 h and subjected to RT-PCR or various other experiments. The mRNA from RNAi-treated A431 cells was isolated using TRIZOL reagent (Invitrogen). A first-strand cDNA was synthesized from the mRNA by SuperScript first-strand synthesis system for RT-PCR (Invitrogen). The PCR amplification was performed using the first-strand cDNA. Amplification condition was as follows: 25 cycles of 30 s at 95°C, 30 s at 60°C, 60 s at 72°C, and a final extension of 10 min at 72°C.
In vitro actin polymerization assay
Actin was prepared from rabbit skeletal muscle and monomeric actin was purified using gel filtration on Superdex 200 (GE Healthcare) in G buffer (2 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 0.2 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM DTT, and 0.2 mM ATP). Purified actin was labeled with N-(1-pyrene) iodoacetamide (Invitrogen). Purification of Arp2/3 complex and N-WASP and in vitro actin polymerization assay were performed as described previously (Fukuoka et al., 2001).
Quantification of EGF internalization
EGF endocytosis assays using biotinylated EGF were performed as described previously (Vieira et al., 1996), but with modifications. A431 cells were treated with siRNA as described in RNAi and RT-PCR. After 72 h, cells were starved with serum-free DME for 16 h. Cells were then incubated with 20 ng/ml of biotinylated EGF (Invitrogen) for 30 min at 4°C and moved to a 37°C incubator for the indicated times. To measure internalized EGF, cells were washed two times with ice-cold acid buffer (10 mM HCl and 150 mM NaCl, pH 2.0) to remove surface-bound EGF. To measure total bound EGF, cells were washed two times with ice-cold PBS instead of the acid wash. Cells were lysed in PBS containing 1% Triton X-100. Cell lysates were incubated with an ELISA plate coated with anti-EGF antibody (polyclonal; Abcam plc) at RT for 1 h. After being washed with PBS containing 0.05% Tween 20, the plate was incubated with streptavidin-peroxidase (Sigma-Aldrich) at RT for 30 min and bound, and biotinylated EGF was detected by reaction with its substrate, orthophenyl enediamine dihydrochloride. The absorbance was measured at 492 nm in an ELISA plate reader (Bio-Rad Laboratories).
Image acquisition and processing
All photographic images were taken through a microscope (ECLIPSE E600; Nikon) with a confocal microscopy system (Radiance 2000; Bio-Rad Laboratories) at RT. Fluorochromes used include Alexa Fluor 488, 546, and 647 or rhodamine-labeled phalloidin (all Invitrogen). A 60x oil immersion objective, NA 1.40 (Nikon) was used. Images were assembled with Photoshop (Adobe). In each plate, photographs were cropped and each fluorochrome was adjusted identically for brightness and contrast to represent the observed images.
Western blotting, GST pull-down, immunoprecipitation, and densitometry
The samples were electrophoresed in SDS-PAGE gels, stained with Coomassie brilliant blue, or transferred to polyvinylidene difluoride membrane, blocked with 5% nonfat dry milk in PBS and 0.1% Tween 20, incubated with primary antibodies, and then incubated with alkaline phosphatase–conjugated goat immunoglobulin secondary antibodies (Promega), followed by incubation with NBT/BCIP substrate (Roche). GST pull-down assay and immunoprecipitation were described previously (Fukuoka et al., 2001). Resulting gels or blots were scanned with a calibrated densitometer (model GS-710; Bio-Rad Laboratories) and quantified with Image J software.
