TRIP8b (PEX5L) exists as at least nine alternative N-terminal splice isoforms in brain and functions as an auxiliary subunit of HCN1 channels: all isoforms inhibit channel opening by shifting activation to more negative potentials, while individual isoforms differentially downregulate or upregulate HCN1 surface expression. |

PEX5R/TRIP8b was identified as the beta (auxiliary) subunit of HCN channels in mammalian brain by affinity purification and high-resolution mass spectrometry; coassembly with PEX5R/TRIP8b largely impairs cAMP-dependent activation of HCN2 and HCN4, while gating by phosphoinositides and basal voltage-dependence remain unaffected; de novo expression of PEX5R/TRIP8b in cardiomyocytes abolishes beta-adrenergic stimulation of HCN channels. |

TRIP8b was identified as a Rab8b-interacting protein via yeast two-hybrid screen from rat brain cDNA; interaction was verified by in vitro binding and co-immunoprecipitation; TRIP8b is present in both cytosolic and membrane fractions of AtT20 cells; overexpression of TRIP8b stimulates cAMP-induced ACTH secretion, implicating it in the regulated secretory pathway. |

TRIP8b interacts with HCN1 at two distinct C-terminal sites: (1) an upstream site where the HCN1 C-linker/cyclic nucleotide-binding domain (CNBD) interacts with an 80 aa domain in the conserved core of TRIP8b — necessary and sufficient for inhibition of channel opening and sufficient for downregulatory trafficking effects; (2) a downstream site where the HCN1 C-terminal SNL tripeptide interacts with the TRIP8b tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain — stabilizes the complex and is required for upregulatory trafficking effects. |

Isoform-wide disruption of TRIP8b/HCN1 interaction causes HCN1 mistargeting throughout CA1 somatodendritic compartments; selective removal of exons 1b and 2 leaves two hippocampal isoforms — TRIP8b(1a-4) promotes HCN1 surface expression in dendrites while TRIP8b(1a) suppresses HCN1 misexpression in axons — demonstrating that proper distal dendritic localization requires additive and subtractive sculpting by two distinct isoforms. |

Interaction of TRIP8b with the HCN1 C-terminal SNL tripeptide (via TPR domain) governs channel trafficking effects, whereas TRIP8b interaction with the HCN1 CNBD affects both trafficking and gating; cAMP directly disrupts TRIP8b binding to the CNBD (requiring an arginine residue also required for cAMP binding), and elevated cAMP antagonizes TRIP8b-mediated upregulation of HCN1. |

TRIP8b and HCN2 form an obligate 4:4 (tetrameric) complex; the TRIP8b TPR region binds the HCN C-terminal SNL tripeptide and the TRIP8b conserved region binds the HCN CNBD; X-ray crystal structure of the TRIP8b TPR domain in complex with the HCN2 C-terminal peptide was determined. |

NMR solution structure of the HCN2 CNBD (apo form) was determined and TRIP8b interaction site mapped; TRIP8b does not compete with cAMP for the same binding region on the CNBD but instead acts via an allosteric mechanism that prevents cAMP-induced conformational changes in the CNBD. |

The TPR domains of Pex5Rp/TRIP8b and Pex5p have distinct but overlapping substrate specificities for Rab8b and PTS1-like C-terminal peptides; changes in surrounding residues or conformational state of binding partners alter binding activities, showing the binding specificity of the TRIP8b TPR domain is context-dependent. |

PEX5L acts as a co-receptor for PTS2-mediated peroxisomal import: in the presence of PEX5L, the interaction strength between PTS2 cargo and PEX7 is drastically increased; cargo binding is a prerequisite for PEX7–PEX5L interaction; overexpression of PTS2 cargo stimulates PEX7 transfer to peroxisomes, suggesting sequential formation of a trimeric cargo–PEX7–PEX5L complex is required for PTS2 import. |

TRIP8b directly interacts with clathrin through two short clathrin-binding motifs in its N-terminal (non-TPR) region; co-expression of HCN1 with TRIP8b in HEK293 cells translocates channels from cell surface to large intracellular puncta co-localizing with clathrin, early endosome, and lysosome markers; a clathrin-non-binding TRIP8b mutant fails to recruit clathrin to these puncta; TRIP8b is present in purified clathrin-coated vesicles from brain. |

TRIP8b reduces cAMP affinity for the HCN2 CNBD; using fluorescence anisotropy, biolayer interferometry, and DEER spectroscopy, TRIP8b was found to act predominantly as a partial competitive antagonist of cAMP at the CNBD binding site, largely competing with a portion of the cAMP-binding pocket rather than exclusively acting noncompetitively. |

Allosteric coupling between TRIP8b's TPR domains and its CNBD-binding domain confers binding specificity for HCN channels: binding at either the HCN CNBD site or the HCN C-terminal (SNL) site increases affinity at the other site, and this allostery also limits TRIP8b binding to PTS1-type substrates. |

Restoration of TRIP8b expression to the hippocampus of TRIP8b KO mice (viral rescue) was sufficient to reverse both impaired HCN channel dendritic trafficking and antidepressant-like behavioral effects; a TRIP8b mutant further impairing HCN channel trafficking increased the antidepressant-like phenotype, demonstrating that TRIP8b-mediated HCN channel trafficking bidirectionally controls antidepressant-like behavior. |

Phosphorylation of TRIP8b at Ser237 enhances its binding to HCN channels and influences channel gating by altering affinity for the HCN cytoplasmic domain; phospho-Ser237 TRIP8b is enriched in CA1 distal dendrites in vivo; this phosphorylation is reduced in the kainic acid model of TLE, correlating with HCN channel mislocalization. |
