A molecular specificity code for the three mammalian KDEL receptors
Open accessAbstract
AC-terminal KDEL-like motif prevents secretion of soluble endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–resident proteins. This motif interacts with KDEL receptors localized in the intermediate compartment and Golgi apparatus. Such binding triggers retrieval back to the ER via a coat protein I–dependent pathway. To date, two human KDEL receptors have been reported. Here, we report the Golgi localization of a third human KDEL receptor. Using a reporter construct system from a screen of 152 variants, we identified 35 KDEL-like variants that result in efficient ER localization but do not match the current Prosite motif for ER localization ([KRHQSA]-[DENQ]-E-L). We cloned 16 human proteins with one of these motifs and all were found in the ER. A subsequent screen by bimolecular fluorescence complementation determined the specificities of the three human KDEL receptors. Each KDEL receptor has a unique pattern of motifs with which it interacts. This suggests a specificity in the retrieval of human proteins that contain different KDEL variants.

FKBP14 encodes FKBP22, a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase localized in the ER lumen that interacts with different types of COLLs and catalyzes cis-trans-isomerization of peptide bonds, promoting COLLIII folding.
“FKBP14 encodes FKBP22, a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase localized in the ER lumen [41] that interacts with different types of COLLs, i.e., COLLIII, COLLVI, and COLLX, and during COLLs triple helix formation catalyzes cis–trans-isomerization of peptide bonds, promoting in particular the COLLIII folding [39,42].”

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.
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.
