    DNAJB12 and DNJB14 are non-redundant Hsp40 redox chaperones involved in endoplasmic reticulum protein reflux

    Background: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) transmembrane chaperones DNAJB12(B12) and DNAJB14(B14) are cofactors that cooperate with cytosolic Heat Shock-70 protein (HSC70) facilitating folding/degradation of nascent membrane proteins and supporting the ER-membrane penetration of viral particles. Here, we assessed structural/functional features of B12/B14 with respect to their regulation by ER stress and their involvement in ER stress-mediated protein reflux.Methods: We investigated the effect of Unfolded Protein Response(UPR)-eliciting drugs on the expression/ regulation of B12-B14 and their roles in ER-to-cytosol translocation of Protein Disulfide Isomerase-A1(PDI).Results: We show that B12 and B14 are similar but do not seem redundant. They share predicted structural features and show high homology of their cytosolic J-domains, while their ER-lumen DUF1977 domains are quite dissimilar. Interactome analysis suggested that B12/B14 associate with different biological processes. UPR activation did not significantly impact on B12 gene expression, while B14 transcripts were up-regulated. Meanwhile, B12 and B14 (33.4 kDa isoform) protein levels were degraded by the proteasome upon acute reductive challenge. Also, B12 degradation was impaired upon sulfenic-acid trapping by dimedone. We originally report that knockdown of B12/B14 and their cytosolic partner SGTA in ER-stressed cells significantly impaired the amount of the ER redox-chaperone PDI in a cytosolic-enriched fraction. Additionally, B12 but not B14 overexpression increased PDI relocalization in non-stressed cells.Conclusions and general significance: Our findings reveal that B12/B14 regulation involves thiol redox processes that may impact on their stability and possibly on physiological effects. Furthermore, we provide novel evidence that these proteins are involved in UPR-induced ER protein reflux.
