Abstract

Autosomal recessive hypercholesterolemia is characterized by a cell type-specific defect in low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) endocytosis. LDLR-mediated uptake of LDL is impaired in the liver, but not in fibroblasts of subjects with this disorder. The disease is caused by mutations in ARH, which encodes a putative adaptor protein that interacts with the cytoplasmic tail of the LDLR, phospholipids, and two components of the clathrin endocytic machinery, clathrin and adaptor protein-2 (AP-2) in vitro. To determine the physiological relevance of these interactions, we examined the effect of mutations in the ARH on LDLR location and function in polarized hepatocytes (WIF-B). The integrity of the FDNPVY sequence in the LDLR cytoplasmic tail was required for ARH-associated LDLR clustering into clathrin-coated pits. The phosphotyrosine binding domain of ARH plus either the clathrin box or the AP-2 binding region were required for both clustering and internalization of the LDLR. Parallel studies performed in vivo with the same recombinant forms of ARH in livers of Arh(-/-) mice confirmed the relevance of the cell culture findings. These results demonstrate that ARH must bind the LDLR tail and either clathrin or AP-2 to promote receptor clustering and internalization of LDL.

Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.

TL;DR

ARH promotes clustering of the LDLR into clathrin-coated pits in polarized hepatocytes and is required for efficient LDLR internalization and hepatic LDL clearance. The LDLR FDNPVY motif and ARH’s PTB domain plus either its clathrin box or AP-2 binding region are required for clustering and internalization.

Key findings

  • In WIF-B hepatocytes, co-expression of ARH with LDLR caused LDLR clustering into clathrin-coated pits; immunogold quantification in Table One showed LDLR alone at 1.78 gold particles/µm on non-coated pit membrane versus 0.43 on coated pit membrane, while LDLR+ARH showed 0.10 versus 3.36. The text describes a ~33-fold increase in LDLRs/µm of coated pit membrane and a ~9-fold reduction in LDLRs per µm of plasma membrane.
  • ARH-mediated clustering and internalization required the LDLR cytoplasmic FDNPVY sequence: ARH clustered wild-type LDLR but not LDLR-Y807A, and LDLR-Y807A plus ARH failed to internalize.
  • ARH required an intact PTB domain plus either the clathrin box or the AP-2 binding region: ARH-S117Y and ARH-N187X failed to promote clustering; single clathrin-box (L212A/L213A) or AP-2 (R266A) mutants supported clustering, but the double mutant LL/AA/R266A did not.
  • In Arh−/− mice fed a high fat/high cholesterol diet, plasma cholesterol rose 4–7-fold to 375–700 mg/dl; wild-type ARH expression reduced circulating cholesterol by 50%, whereas PTB mutants F165A or S117Y failed to lower LDL-C and clathrin-box or AP-2 single mutants lowered cholesterol similarly to wild-type, while the double mutant did not.

Methods

  • Polarized WIF-B cells (rat hepatocyte–human fibroblast fusion) were infected with recombinant adenoviruses expressing human LDLR (wild-type or Y807A) and wild-type or mutant ARH; LDLR localization was assessed by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy, immunoelectron microscopy with gold-labeled LDLR or LDL, and receptor internalization assays using IgG-C7.
  • In vivo, Arh−/− mice on a C57Bl/6 and 126sv hybrid background were fed a 2% cholesterol, 21% anhydrous milk fat diet for 3–5 weeks, then injected with recombinant adenovirus (2 × 10^11 pfu) expressing wild-type or mutant ARH; plasma cholesterol was measured before and 4 days after injection.
  • Main analyses included immunoblotting for LDLR and ARH expression, enzymatic plasma cholesterol measurement, and quantification of immunogold particles per micrometer of non-coated versus coated pit membrane.

Limitations

  • The authors state that the static morphological techniques used could not define the temporal sequence of interactions between ARH, LDLR, and proteins/lipids in coated pits.
  • The authors state they could not determine whether ARH-mediated increases in LDLR internalization are simply a consequence of increased receptor clustering or whether ARH also directly affects internalization once the receptor reaches coated pits, because no mutation uncouples clustering from internalization.
  • The authors note that endogenous ARH in WIF-B cells failed to promote clustering of recombinant LDLRs, possibly because expression was too low or because of species differences between endogenous ARH and recombinant human LDLR; they also speculate that high ARH-F165A expression may compensate for reduced LDLR-tail affinity in WIF-B cells, since F165A supported clustering in vitro but failed to rescue ARH activity in mice.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • The residue-165 mutant changes from F165A to Y165A

    Minor

    The mutant tested at residue 165 is identified as F165A, a phenylalanine-to-alanine substitution. A later passage calls the same mutant ARH-Y165A, which instead denotes a tyrosine-to-alanine substitution.

  • Discussion incorrectly excludes ARH with both binding motifs

    Minor

    The modeling passage identifies Tyr 117 as a conserved residue, but the described S117Y mutation substitutes tyrosine for the serine at position 117.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-08, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-08 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
