Article Abstract
Cell death-inducing DFF45-like effect (CIDE) domain-containing proteins, DFF40, DFF45, CIDE-A, CIDE-B, and FSP27, play important roles in apoptotic DNA fragmentation and lipid homeostasis. The function of DFF40/45 in apoptotic DNA fragmentation is mediated by CIDE domain filament formation. Although our recent structural study of DREP4 CIDE revealed the first filament-like structure of the CIDE domain and its functional importance, the filament structure of DREP2 CIDE is unclear because this structure was not helical in the asymmetric unit. In this study, we present the crystal structure and mutagenesis analysis of the DREP2 CIDE mutant, which confirmed that DREP2 CIDE also forms a filament-like structure with features differing from those of DREP4 CIDE.

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late-onset neurodegenerative disease that develops in some premutation (PM) carriers of the FMR1 gene with alleles bearing 55-200 CGG repeats. The discovery of a broad spectrum of clinical and cell-developmental abnormalities among PM carriers with or without FXTAS and in model systems suggests that neurodegeneration seen in FXTAS could be the inevitable end-result of pathophysiological processes set during early development. Hence, it is imperative to trace early PM-induced pathological abnormalities.

Cell death-inducing DNA fragmentation factor 45 (DFF45)-like effector (CIDE) domains were initially identified as protein interaction modules in apoptotic nucleases and are now known to form a highly conserved family with diverse functions that range from cell death to lipid homeostasis. In the fly, four CIDE domain-containing proteins (DFF-related protein [DREP]-1-4) and their functions, including interaction relationships, have been identified. In this study, we introduced and investigated acidic side-disrupted mutants of DREP1, DREP2, and DREP3.

Cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector (CIDE) domains, initially identified in apoptotic nucleases, form a family with diverse functions ranging from cell death to lipid homeostasis. Here we show that the CIDE domains of and human apoptotic nucleases Drep2, Drep4, and DFF40 all form head-to-tail helical filaments. Opposing positively and negatively charged interfaces mediate the helical structures, and mutations on these surfaces abolish nuclease activation for apoptotic DNA fragmentation.

CIDE-N domains mediate interactions between the DNase Dff40/CAD and its inhibitor Dff45/ICAD. In this study, we report that the CIDE-N protein Drep-2 is a novel synaptic protein important for learning and behavioral adaptation. Drep-2 was found at synapses throughout the Drosophila brain and was strongly enriched at mushroom body input synapses.
