The molar ratio between Fam20A and Fam20C in each lane is indicated. Saturation of ENAM phosphorylation was observed when 10 to 15-fold excess of Fam20A were used.

Article Snippet: Reaction buffer contained 10 mM MnCl 2 . ( C ) Sequence alignment of Fam20A and Fam20C protein orthologs ( Hs , Homo sapiens ; Gg , Gallus gallus; Xt, Xenopus tropicalis; Dr, Danio rerio; Dm, Drosophila melanogaster; Ce, Caenorhabditis elegans ).

( A ) mRNA levels of Fam20C family members in the mouse mammary gland. The mammary glands from two non-lactating (Virgin) and two 10-day lactating (Lact) mice were isolated and the mRNA levels of Fam20 family members were determined by quantitative (q)RT-PCR. Data are represented as mean ± SD. ( B ) mRNA levels of Fam20A and Fam20C in the mammary glands of pregnant/lactating female mice at different stages. E−13, 16 or 18: embryonic day 13, 16 or 18; Lact-1, 3 or 7: 1, 3 or 7 days after lactation; Inv-1 or 7: 1 or 7 days after involution. The gestation period of mouse is 18–21 days. mRNA levels of Fam20A and Fam20C were determined by qRT-PCR. Data are represented as mean ± SD. ( C ) Protein levels of Fam20A and Fam20C in the mouse mammary glands. Endogenous Fam20A or Fam20C were detected from whole mammary gland lysate or the Golgi/ER-enriched fractions by western blot. ( D ) Co-immunoprecipitation of endogenous Fam20A and Fam20C from Golgi/ER-enriched fractions of the mouse lactating mammary gland. Polyclonal rabbit anti-Fam20C antibody was used for immunoprecipitating endogenous Fam20C. Normal rabbit IgG was used as control for immunoprecipitation.

( A ) Effect of Fam20A mutations on OPN phosphorylation. The experiment was performed as in . OPN-V5 was expressed in WT or Fam20A-KO ALC. Fam20A-Flag WT, L173R, G331D or D403N was co-expressed as indicated. ( B ) Effect of AI mutations on Fam20A secretion. Fam20A-Flag WT, L173R, G331D or D403N was expressed in ALCs. Fam20A-Flag was immunoprecipitated from conditioned media or cell lysate using anti-Flag antibody and detected by western blot. ( C ) Effect of Fam20A overexpression on Fam20C mutant-catalyzed OPN phosphorylation. OPN-V5 and Fam20C-Flag (WT or mutants as indicated) were expressed in U2OS cells with or without Fam20A-Flag. Secreted OPN-V5 was immunoprecipitated from conditioned media and detected by western blot. OPN phosphorylation was indicated by its mobility shift. D478A is the kinase-dead Fam20C mutation. Other Fam20C mutations were identified from Raine syndrome (R.S.) patients. ( D ) The working model of Fam20A/Fam20C complex. Upper: in the tissues and cells where both Fam20A and Fam20C are expressed, Fam20C forms a complex with Fam20A and exhibits high activity, resulting in high levels of substrate (S) phosphorylation; Lower: when Fam20A is disrupted, Fam20C activity becomes low and substrate phosphorylation is ineffective, leading to diseases like AI.
