MGI Phenotype |
FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene encodes a secreted metalloproteinase which cleaves insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). It is thought to be involved in local proliferative processes such as wound healing and bone remodeling. Low plasma level of this protein has been suggested as a biochemical marker for pregnancies with aneuploid fetuses. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mutants are smaller than normal with delayed ossification, but are otherwise normal and fertile. [provided by MGI curators]

Phenotypic Description |
The caer phenotype was identified among G3 mice of the pedigree R6462, some of which showed reduced body weights compared to wild-type littermates (Figure 1). Some mice also showed reduced bone mineral content and densities of both tibias (Figure 2 and Figure 3, respectively) and femurs (Figure 4 and Figure 5, respectively). Mice also showed reduced lean mass (Figure 6).
|
Nature of Mutation |
Whole exome HiSeq sequencing of the G1 grandsire identified 37 mutations. All of the above anomalies were linked to a mutation in Pappa: a C to A transversion at base pair 65,124,891 (v38) on chromosome 4, or base pair 718 in the GenBank genomic region NC_000070. The strongest association was found with a recessive model of inheritance to the reduced body weight phenotype, wherein two variant homozygotes departed phenotypically from 19 homozygous reference mice and 37 heterozygous mice with a P value of 1.248 x 10-13 (Figure 7). The mutation corresponds to residue 718 in the mRNA sequence NM_021362 within exon 1 of 22 total exons.

Protein Prediction |
Pappa encodes pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A; alternatively, IGFBP4 protease or differentially expressed in placenta 1 [DIPLA1]), a member of the pappalysin subfamily of the metzincin protease family along with PAPP-A2 (see the record for Lilliputian) and ulilysin. PAPP-A shares 62% homology to PAPP-A2 (1). PAPP-A has several domains, including a signaling peptide (amino acids 1-22), a laminin G-like domain, three Lin12/Notch repeats (LNRs), a metalloprotease region (amino acids 272-583), and five complement control protein (CCP) domains (alternatively, short consensus repeat [SCR] or Sushi domains; amino acids 1210-1279, 1280-1341, 1342-1409, 1410-1470, and 1473-1553) (Figure 8) (2). PAPP-A is initially translated as a 1,624 proprotein; cleavage of the signal peptide and a propeptide (amino acids 23-80) generates the mature 1,544 amino acid peptide (3). Laminin G-like domains are 180 to 200 amino acid modules found in extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoproteins such as laminin, perlecan, and agrin (4). Laminin G-like domains are comprised of a 14-stranded β sandwich with a calcium ion bound to one edge of the sandwich (4). In the above-mentioned ECM proteins, the laminin G-like domains mediate binding to heparin, integrins, and the cell surface receptor α-dystroglycan (α-DG) as well as to sulfated carbohydrates and extracellular ligands (4;5). Association between the laminin G-like domain-containing ECM proteins and heparin or α-DG is essential for basement membrane assembly as well as muscle and nerve cell function. The function of the laminin G-like domain in PAPP-A is unknown. LNRs are typically found only in Notch receptors. LNRs bind calcium and determine proteolytic specificity. The LNRs are approximately 35 to 40 amino acids in length. Each LNR contains six cysteine residues engaged in three disulfide bonds and three conserved aspartate and asparagine residues, which are proposed to coordinate a calcium ion (6). Single amino acid mutations in the PAPP-A LNRs result in loss of calcium binding and subsequent loss of activity towards insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4 (IGFBP4), a PAPP-A substrate; cleavage of another substrate, IGFBP5, was not disrupted (7). The CCP domains have a consensus sequence spanning approximately 60 residues containing four invariant cysteine residues forming two disulfide-bridges (I-III and II-IV), a highly conserved tryptophan, and conserved glycine, proline, and hydrophobic residues (8). CCP domains fold into a small and compact hydrophobic core enveloped by six beta-strands and stabilized by the disulfide bridges; the topology of the other strands relative to this central conserved core is variable (9;10). The CCP domains mediate recognition processes such as the binding of complement factors to fragments C3b and C4b (8). The third and fourth CCP domains of PAPP-A bind cell surface molecules displaying glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). PAPP-A has 14 putative N-glycosylation sites, seven putative O-glycosylation sites, and 82 cysteines that are involved in disulfide bond formation (2). PAPP-A forms a disulfide-linked homodimer, and is found as a disulfide-linked 2:2 heterotetramer with the proform of PRG2 (proMBP) in pregnancy serum. Formation of the PAPP-A/proMBP complex results in rearrangement of disulfide bonds in proximity to the PAPP-A active site, which renders PAPP-A inactive towards its substrates (11-13). Human PAPPA produces a major transcript of approximately 12-kb and a minor transcript of approximately 8.5 kb in the placenta (2). A short transcript, designated DIPLA1, and a DIPLA1 antisense transcript, DIPAS, was cloned from the 3-prime end of PAPPA (14). DIPLA1 and DIPAS are encoded by one exon and contain several upstream open reading frames. DIPLA1 is expressed only in the placenta (14). The caer mutation results in a threonine to lysine substitution at position 117 (T117K); Thr117 is within the laminin G-like domain.
|
Expression/Localization | PAPPA is predominantly expressed in the placenta (2). PAPP-A is expressed in ovarian follicles, follicular fluid, luteal cells, and fallopian tubes of nonpregnant women and in the seminal vesicles and seminal fluid of males. PAPP-A is also expressed in the kidney, spleen, breast, brain, skin, and prostate (15). Serum PAPP-A levels are often increased in patients with severe sepsis and may be associated with sepsis-related myocardial dysfunction (16). Maternal serum levels of PAPP-A increases exponentially until term. Women with low PAPP-A expression levels during their first trimester were more likely to have a child born small (£10th percentile) for their gestational age (17-22).

Background |
PAPP-A is a secreted metalloproteinase that cleaves IGFBP2, IGFBP4, and IGFBP5. PAPP-A cleaves the Met135/Lys136 bond in IGFBP4 and the Ser143/Lys144 bond in IGFBP5 (23-26). IGFBPs are carrier proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), regulating the bioavailability of IGFs by prolonging their half-life and circulation turnover. IGFBP5 is a factor involved in bone metabolism, and also has IGF-I-independent functions. IGFPB5 is able to bind its putative receptor, facilitating its entry into the cytoplasm and subsequent interaction with other proteins. IGF release and IGF-related signaling is mediated by the cleavage of the IGFBPs by proteases (Figure 9). IGFs are essential for the regulation of growth and development by influencing the proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of osteoblasts (23;27). IGFs bind to two types of receptors (IGF-IR and IGF-IIR), subsequently activating downstream tyrosine kinase pathways. In IGF-I-associated signaling, both the IRS-1/phosphoinositide 3-kinase/serine–threonine kinase pathway and the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway are activated, which subsequently promote cell proliferation, tissue differentiation, and protection from apoptosis. Pappa-deficient (Pappa-/-) mice showed reduced body sizes and weights (60 to 70% of wild-type mice) as well as delayed bone ossification (28). The Pappa-/- mice also showed increased lifespans by 30 to 40% as well as reduced incidences of spontaneous tumors (29). Pappa-/- mice had resistance to age-dependent thymic involution (30), and Pappa-/- female mice showed reduced ovarian function and fertility (31). In contrast, transgenic overexpression of PAPP-A in skeletal muscle resulted in increased skeletal muscle weight and muscle fiber area (32). Mice with transgenic overexpression of PAPP-A in osteoblasts showed increased calvarial bone thickness, bone marrow cavities, skull bone mineral densities, total bone area in the femur and tibia, and bone formation rates (33). Osteoblasts from mice with transgenic overexpression of PAPP-A in osteoblasts showed increased IGFBP4 proteolysis and free IGF-I concentration (33).

Putative Mechanism | Through its role in cleaving IGFBPs (and subsequent release of bioactive IGF), PAPP-A functions as a growth-promoting enzyme. IGFBP4 cleavage is required to activate most, if not all, IGF2-mediated growth-promoting activity. The reduced body size phenotype of the Pappa-/- mice is similar to that in IGF2 knockout mice (34) and IGFBP4 knockout mice (35). The phenotype of the caer mice mimics that of the Pappa-/- mice, indicating loss of PAPP-A function.
