摘要
Epsin has been suggested to act as an alternate adaptor in several endocytic pathways. Its role in synaptic vesicle recycling remains, however, unclear. Here, we examined the role of epsin in this process by using the lamprey reticulospinal synapse as a model system. We characterized a lamprey ortholog of epsin 1 and showed that it is accumulated at release sites at rest and also at clathrin-coated pits in the periactive zone during synaptic activity. Disruption of epsin interactions, by presynaptic microinjection of antibodies to either the epsin-N-terminal homology domain (ENTH) or the clathrin/AP2 binding region (CLAP), caused profound loss of vesicles in stimulated synapses. CLAP anti body-injected synapses displayed a massive accumulation of distorted coated structures, including coated vacuoles, whereas in synapses perturbed with ENTH antibodies, very few coated structures were found. In both cases coated pits on the plasma membrane showed a shift to early intermediates (shallow coated pits) and an increase in size. Moreover, in CLAP antibody-injected synapses flat clathrin-coated patches occurred on the plasma membrane. We conclude that epsin is involved in clathrin-mediated synaptic vesicle endocytosis. Our results support a model, based on in vitro studies, suggesting that epsin coordinates curvature generation with coat assembly and further indicating that epsin limits clathrin coat assembly to the size of newly formed vesicles. We propose that these functions of epsin 1 provide an additional mechanism for generation of uniformly sized synaptic vesicles.
