Annexin A9 is a periplakin interacting partner in membrane-targeted cytoskeletal linker protein complexes.

Periplakin regulates keratin organisation and participates in the assembly of epidermal cornified envelopes. A proteomic approach identified annexin A9 as a novel interacting partner for periplakin N-terminus. The presence of annexin A9 in complexes with periplakin was confirmed by immunoblotting of proteins immunoprecipitated by anti-HA or anti-annexin A9 antibodies. Both endogenous and GFP-tagged annexin A9 co-localise with endogenous periplakin and transfected periplakin N-terminus at MCF-7 cell borders and aggregate after Okadaic acid treatment. Annexin A9 and periplakin co-localise in the epidermis and annexin A9 is up-regulated in differentiating keratinocytes, but the epidermal annexin A9 expression does not require periplakin.

Pemphigus vulgaris antibody identifies pemphaxin. A novel keratinocyte annexin-like molecule binding acetylcholine.

Because pemphigus vulgaris (PV) IgGs adsorbed on the rDsg3-Ig-His baculoprotein induced blisters in neonatal mice, it was proposed that anti-desmoglein 3 (Dsg 3) autoantibody causes PV. However, we found that rDsg3-Ig-His absorbs autoantibodies to different antigens, including a non-Dsg 3 keratinocyte protein of 130 kDa. This prompted our search for novel targets of PV autoimmunity. The PV IgG eluted from a 75-kDa keratinocyte protein band both stained epidermis in a pemphigus-like pattern and induced acantholysis in keratinocyte monolayers. Screening of a keratinocyte lambdagt11 cDNA library with this antibody identified clones carrying cDNA inserts encoding a novel molecule exhibiting approximately 40% similarity with annexin-2, named pemphaxin (PX). Recombinant PX (rPX-His) was produced in Escherichia coli M15 cells, and, because annexins can act as cholinergic receptors, its conformation was tested in a cholinergic radioligand binding assay. rPX-His specifically bound [(3)H]acetylcholine, suggesting that PX is one of the keratinocyte cholinergic receptors known to be targeted by disease-causing PV antibodies. Preabsorption of PV sera with rPX-His eliminated acantholytic activity, and eluted antibody immunoprecipitated native PX. This antibody alone did not cause skin blisters in vivo, but its addition to the preabsorbed PV IgG fraction restored acantholytic activity, indicating that acantholysis in PV results from synergistic action of antibodies to different keratinocyte self-antigens, including both acetylcholine receptors and desmosomal cadherins.
