<t>Matriptase</t> biosensor design. (a) ddRFP-based biosensor schematic. Following proteolytic linker cleavage, the fluorescent “A” copy separates from the stabilizing “B” copy, resulting in loss of “A” copy fluorescence. (b) Example time course plot of biosensor mechanism; addition of matriptase cleaves the biosensor and reduces fluorescence over time (red), while absence of matriptase retains fluorescence over time (blue). (c) Matriptase cleavable linker designs and sequence information. Design name is derived from number of amino acids flanking the scissile bond. Scissile bond is highlighted in red (Arg) and blue (Val). Each sequence shown is derived from the natural pro-macrophage stimulating protein (Pro-MSP) sequence. N-term = N-terminus; K1–4 = Kringle domains 1–4; SPH = Serine Protease Homologue.

Biosensor kinetic measurements and characterization. (a) Time course trajectories of biosensors B3 to B10 with matriptase and (b) velocity graphs in the presence of varying concentrations of matriptase (Matr.). (c) Western blot bands correspond to three possible reaction products detected through the C-terminal hexahistidine-tag: uncleaved biosensor (top band, 59.4 kDa), **hydolytically cleaved biosensor (middle band, 40.3 kDa), and cleaved biosensor (bottom band, 32.5 kDa). Copy “A” product is not detected due to lack of a His-tag. Note, two gels were used for this experiment as indicated. (d) Velocity profile for B4, B8, and B9 in the presence of different serine protease family members, relative to matriptase activity. Experiments performed in triplicate and reports mean values with standard deviation. Data are normalized for background conditions of biosensor without matriptase.

Article Snippet: Before applying the goat anti-mouse HAI-2 antibody to the PVDF membrane for overnight probing, the antibody was pre-absorbed with 10 g of protein from HAI-2 knock-out lysate for 30 min at 4 °C in 1% nonfat dry milk/PBS-T.

FIGURE 5. Reduction of HAI-2 levels enhances matriptase activation and cell surface shedding in intestinal epithelial cell monolayers. A, schematic depiction of full-length matriptase (top, left), SEA domain-cleaved matriptase (left, middle), activation site-cleaved matriptase (left, bottom), activated matrip- tase in complex with HAI-1 (right, top), and two forms of the matriptase-HAI-1 complex once shed from the cell surface (right, middle, and bottom). Positions of the SEA domain cleavage (Gly149) and the activation cleavage site (Arg614) are shown with arrowheads. The binding site for the antibody used to identify full-length, SEA domain-cleaved and activated matriptase by Western blot after reducing SDS-PAGE is indicated with a schematic drawing of an antibody (left panel). Also, the binding site for the antibody used to identify matriptase-HAI-1 complexes in the cell or as shed forms by Western blot under non- boiling/non-reducing conditions is indicated (right panel). B and C, three HAI-2-silencing siRNAs (siSPINT2 a–c, lanes 1–4) and three scrambled controls (siCTRL a–c, lanes 5–8) were transfected into Caco-2 cells. Three days post-transfection, the cell lysates (B) were analyzed by Western blot using antibodies against HAI-2 (top panel), matriptase (second panel from top), matriptase-HAI-1 complex formation (third panel from top, non-boiled/non- reduced) and prostasin (second panel from bottom). Tubulin was used as a loading control (bottom panel). Nonspecific bands are marked with n.s. C, conditioned medium from the cell samples from B was also analyzed using antibodies recognizing matriptase (top panel) and the matriptase-HAI-1 complex (lower panel). The specific proteins are indicated on the right, and the molecular markers are indicated on the left (kDa). The data are representative of five similar experiments.

FIGURE 6. Reduction of HAI-2 levels in intestinal epithelial cell monolayers reduces the expression and alters the subcellular localization of matrip- tase. Caco-2 cells were transfected with matriptase siRNA (siST14, A–D), control siRNA (siCTRL, E–H) or siRNA targeting HAI-2 (siSPINT2, I–L), and the cells were grown on transwell filters. Three days post-transfection, the siRNA transfected samples were fixed and co-stained with antibodies against occludin (A, E, I) and matriptase (B, F, J). Phalloidin was used as an apical marker to verify the polarization of the monolayer (C, G, K). All three stainings were merged in D, H, and L. Images were taken in the XY plane, showing a single section through the monolayer, and in the XZ plane, showing a cross-section of the monolayer using confocal imaging. The position of the XY section is indicated on the XZ section (black arrows) on the right. Scale bar, 10 m. The data are representative of four similar experiments.
