Abstract

WHIM syndrome is a rare immunodeficiency disorder that is characterized by warts, hypogammaglobulinemia, infections, and myelokathexis. While several gain-of-function mutations that lead to C-terminal truncations, frame shifts and point mutations in the chemokine receptor CXCR4 have been identified in WHIM syndrome patients, the functional effect of these mutations are not fully understood. Here, we report on a new WHIM syndrome mutation that results in a frame shift within the codon for Ser339 (S339fs5) and compare the properties of S339fs5 with wild-type CXCR4 and a previously identified WHIM syndrome mutant, R334X. The S339fs5 and R334X mutants exhibited significantly increased signaling compared to wild-type CXCR4 including agonist-promoted calcium flux and extracellular-signal-regulated kinase activation. This increase is at least partially due to a significant decrease in agonist-promoted phosphorylation, β-arrestin binding, and endocytosis of S339fs5 and R334X compared with wild-type CXCR4. Interestingly, there were also significant differences in receptor degradation, with S339fs5 having a very high basal level of degradation compared with that of R334X and wild-type CXCR4. In contrast to wild-type CXCR4, both R334X and S339fs5 were largely insensitive to CXCL12-promoted degradation. Moreover, while basal and agonist-promoted degradation of wild-type CXCR4 was effectively inhibited by the CXCR4 antagonist TE-14016, this had no effect on the degradation of the WHIM mutants. Taken together, these studies identify a new WHIM syndrome mutant, CXCR4-S339fs5, which promotes enhanced signaling, reduced phosphorylation, β-arrestin binding and endocytosis, and a very high basal rate of degradation that is not protected by antagonist treatment.

WHIM syndrome is a rare, genetic disease, which is named for its four key clinical manifestations, Warts, Hypogammaglobulinemia, recurrent Infections, and Myelokathexis (1Heusinkveld L.E. Majumdar S. Gao J.L. McDermott D.H. Murphy P.M. WHIM syndrome: From pathogenesis towards personalized medicine and cure.J. Clin. Immunol. 2019; 39: 532-556Google Scholar). WHIM syndrome mainly results from heterozygous gain-of-function mutations in the chemokine receptor CXCR4, a 352 amino acid G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that contains a Ser/Thr-rich C-terminal tail that is a primary region of regulation. CXCR4 is broadly expressed and has an important role in the immune system (1Heusinkveld L.E. Majumdar S. Gao J.L. McDermott D.H. Murphy P.M.

CXCL12/CXCR4-axis dysfunctions: Markers of the rare immunodeficiency disorder WHIM syndrome.Dis. Markers. 2010; 29: 189-198Google Scholar). Previous studies have identified a total of 11 autosomal dominant mutations in CXCR4 across 105 patients that result in WHIM syndrome with the most prevalent being a truncation after Lys333 (R334X) (1Heusinkveld L.E. Majumdar S. Gao J.L. McDermott D.H. Murphy P.M. WHIM syndrome: From pathogenesis towards personalized medicine and cure.J. Clin. Immunol. 2019; 39: 532-556Google Scholar). R334X has been the most extensively characterized mutation and has been shown to have increased agonist (CXCL12)-promoted signaling, increased G protein interaction, reduced interaction with GPCR kinase 6 (GRK6) and β-arrestin2, and impaired receptor internalization (1Heusinkveld L.E.
