Abstract: | Presynaptic active zones (AZ) contain many molecules essential for neurotransmitter release and are assembled in a highly organized manner. A network of adaptor proteins known as Cytomatrix at the AZ (CAZ), is important for shaping the structural characteristics of AZ. RIM-binding protein (RBP) family are binding partners of the CAZ protein RIM and also bind the voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCC) in mice and flies. Here, we investigated the physiological roles of RIMB-1, the homolog of RBPs in the nematode RIMB-1 is expressed broadly in neurons and predominantly localized at presynaptic sites. Loss-of-function animals of displayed slight defects in motility and response to pharmacological inhibition of synaptic transmission, suggesting a modest involvement of in synapse function. We analyzed genetic interactions of by testing candidate genes and by an unbiased forward genetic screen for enhancer. Both analyses identified the RIM homolog UNC-10 that acts together with RIMB-1 to regulate presynaptic localization of the P/Q-type VGCC UNC-2/Ca2. We also find that the precise localization of RIMB-1 to presynaptic sites requires presynaptic UNC-2/Ca2. RIMB-1 has multiple FN3 and SH3 domains. Our transgenic rescue analysis with RIMB-1 deletion constructs revealed a functional requirement of a C-terminal SH3 in regulating UNC-2/Ca2 localization. Together, these findings suggest a redundant role of RIMB-1/RBP and UNC-10/RIM to regulate the abundance of UNC-2/Ca2 at the presynaptic AZ in , depending on the bidirectional interplay between CAZ adapter and channel proteins.Presynaptic active zones (AZ) are highly organized structures for synaptic transmission with characteristic networks of adapter proteins called Cytomatrix at the AZ (CAZ). In this study, we characterized a CAZ protein RIMB-1, named for RIM-binding protein (RBP), in the nematode Through systematic analyses of genetic interactions and an unbiased genetic enhancer screen of , we revealed a redundant role of two CAZ proteins RIMB-1/RBP and UNC-10/RIM in regulating presynaptic localization of UNC-2/Ca2, a voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) critical for proper neurotransmitter release. Additionally, the precise localization of RIMB-1/RBP requires presynaptic UNC-2/Ca2. These findings provide new mechanistic insight about how the interplay among multiple CAZ adapter proteins and VGCC contributes to the organization of presynaptic AZ. |
