Localization-independent Regulation of Homocysteine Secretion by Phosphatidylethanolamine N-Methyltransferase

Genetic ablation of phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) in mice causes a 50% reduction in plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels. Because hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, resolution of the molecular basis for this reduction is of significant clinical interest. The PEMT pathway is a metabolically channeled process localized to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To assess the importance of PEMT localization for Hcy homeostasis, we identified and ablated the minimal ER targeting motif. Mutagenesis of a conserved, C-terminal lysine residue (197) relocalized the enzyme to the Golgi, demonstrating that Lys-197 is essential for targeting PEMT to the ER. To evaluate the functional significance of PEMT localization, hepatoma cell lines were generated that stably expressed either ER- or Golgi-localized PEMT only. Intriguingly, stable expression of PEMT in either the ER or the Golgi caused increased Hcy secretion. Moreover, PEMT-mediated Hcy secretion correlated with the methyltransferase of the of that Hcy is with PEMT of PEMT Genetic ablation of phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase (PEMT) in mice causes a 50% reduction in plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels.
