Gene Description

Annexin A1 (lipocortin 1) is a glucocorticoid-inducible member of the annexin family, built from a unique N-terminal domain and four calcium-binding annexin repeats. In the cytoplasm it binds calcium and, in a calcium-dependent manner, associates peripherally with anionic phospholipid membranes (plasma membrane, endosomes, secretory granules), can aggregate and fuse vesicles in vitro, and its N-terminus binds S100A11. ANXA1 lacks a signal peptide but is externalised to the cell surface and released (via gelatinase granules, extracellular vesicles and TMED10-dependent unconventional secretion). Extracellular ANXA1 and its N-terminal peptide Ac2-26 (released, for example, by cathepsin G) act as agonists of the formyl peptide receptors FPR1, FPR2/ALX and FPR3, limiting neutrophil transendothelial migration, promoting resolution of inflammation, efferocytosis and epithelial wound repair, inhibiting neuroendocrine hormone exocytosis and modulating T cell activation. It mediates part of the anti-inflammatory action of glucocorticoids. Its historically described phospholipase A2 inhibition reflects sequestration of phospholipid substrate. ANXA1 is also a substrate of EGFR, PKC and transglutaminase.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Annexin I was biochemically identified as a minor constituent of the cornified envelope of human oral keratinocytes.
Reason: Direct biochemical evidence that ANXA1 is incorporated into the cross-linked cell envelope, consistent with it being a transglutaminase substrate. Correct location but a tissue-specific fate rather than a site of its core activity.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:10908733

GO:0001780 neutrophil homeostasis
IEA
GO_REF:0000107
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Ortholog transfer of neutrophil homeostasis from the mouse knockout.
Reason: Anxa1-null mice accumulate senescent neutrophils in bone marrow because resident macrophages fail to clear them. Real but a downstream organismal phenotype of the pro-resolving/clearance role; non-core.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:21957127
AnxA1(-/-) mice have significantly increased neutrophil numbers in their bone marrow
PMID:21957127
we conclude that expression of AnxA1 by resident macrophages is a critical determinant for neutrophil clearance in the bone marrow.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: AnxA1-deficient mice have increased, more senescent bone-marrow neutrophils and defective macrophage clearance of neutrophils.
Reason: Experimental (mouse knockout, with human apoptotic neutrophils and human recombinant AnxA1 used in assays). Accepted as a physiological consequence of ANXA1 pro-resolving activity, but a homeostatic outcome rather than the molecular role.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:21957127

GO:0001786 phosphatidylserine binding
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: Phylogenetically inherited phosphatidylserine binding, shared across the annexin family.
Reason: ANXA1 binds PS-containing vesicles in a Ca2+-dependent manner; this is the defining membrane-recognition activity of annexins and directly measured for human ANXA1. IBA node placement at the annexin family root is consistent with the experimental data.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:2532504

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: The ANXA1 N-terminal peptide (Ac2-26) induces chemotaxis of human monocytes via FPR family receptors.
Reason: The experiment uses a synthetic N-terminal peptide acting as an extracellular FPR agonist; ANXA1 acts as a ligand that regulates monocyte chemotaxis rather than migrating itself. Physiologically, the dominant effect is desensitisation/inhibition of leukocyte emigration. Retained as non-core; the core process is regulation of leukocyte migration.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:15187149
The annexin 1 peptide initiates chemotactic responses in human monocytes that express all three FPR family members and also desensitizes the cells toward subsequent stimulation with bacterial peptide agonists.
PMID:15187149
a peptide derived from the N-terminal domain of the anti-inflammatory protein annexin 1 (lipocortin 1) can activate all three FPR family members at similar concentrations.
GO:0002685 regulation of leukocyte migration
IEA
GO_REF:0000107
ACCEPT
Summary: Ortholog-based annotation: ANXA1 regulates leukocyte migration.
Reason: Well supported: ANXA1/N-terminal peptides acting via FPRs inhibit neutrophil transendothelial migration, and knockout mice show increased leukocyte emigration. Appropriate level of specificity for a core anti-inflammatory process.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:10882119
This causes a specific inhibition of the transendothelial migration of neutrophils and a desensitization of neutrophils toward a chemoattractant challenge.
PMID:12475898
Anx-1-/- mice exhibit an exaggerated response to the stimuli characterized by an increase in leukocyte emigration and IL-1beta generation and a partial or complete resistance to the antiinflammatory effects of glucocorticoids.

IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: InterPro2GO mapping of annexin domain to phospholipase inhibitor activity.
Reason: Annexin-mediated PLA2 inhibition in vitro is explained by sequestration of the anionic phospholipid substrate interface rather than by binding to and inhibiting the enzyme, which is what the MF term asserts. The underlying activity is calcium-dependent phospholipid binding (already annotated).
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:9425121
a substrate depletion mechanism is now widely accepted as the explanation for most inhibitory studies.

MODIFY
Summary: ANXA1 N-terminal peptides are endogenous ligands of the formyl peptide receptor (FPR) on human neutrophils.
Reason: "Signaling receptor binding" is correct but uninformative. ANXA1 (and its N-terminal Ac2-26 peptide) acts as an agonist of FPR1/FPR2/FPR3, activating and desensitising these GPCRs, which fits receptor ligand activity.
Proposed replacements: receptor ligand activity

Summary: Calcium binding by human annexin I (N-terminal peptide CD/NMR; Ca2+ stabilises membrane-bound helix).
Reason: Annexin repeats bind multiple Ca2+ ions; calcium binding is fundamental to ANXA1 membrane association. The cited experiment is indirect (N-terminal peptide), but the function is well established for the protein.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:11078886
These results suggest that the N-terminal tail domain of human annexin I interacts with biological membranes in a partially calcium-dependent manner.

Summary: Immuno-EM (pre-embedding and cryo-immunoEM) places ANXA1 at membrane contact sites between the ER and EGFR-positive multivesicular bodies in HeLa cells; ANXA1 depletion markedly reduces these contacts.
Reason: Not in GOA. Direct EM localization plus loss-of-function in a full-text primary paper (Eden et al. 2016) supports this location; ANXA1 with ER-associated S100A11 tethers ER-MVB contacts used for PTP1B access to endosomal EGFR and for ORP1L/VAP-dependent cholesterol delivery. Location term only; ANXA1 is not itself the sterol transporter (ORP1L/VAP perform that step). Identified during reconciliation with the falcon deep research.

Here we show that these contacts are tethered by annexin A1 and its Ca(2+)-dependent ligand, S100A11, and form a subpopulation of differentially regulated contact sites between the ER and endocytic organelles.

There, endosomal ANXA1 and ER-associated **S100A11** help tether the two membranes.

Core Functions

Calcium-dependent binding to anionic phospholipids (phosphatidylserine, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol) via the four annexin repeats, mediating peripheral association with plasma membrane, endosomal and vesicle membranes.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:2138016
    The Ca2+ requirement for all of the proteins was lowest for binding to vesicles composed of phosphatidic acid, followed by phosphatidylserine and then phosphatidylinositol.
  • PMID:2532504
    display Ca2+-dependent binding to phosphatidylserine-containing vesicles

Secreted/externalised ANXA1 and its N-terminal peptide Ac2-26 act as agonists of formyl peptide receptors (FPR1, FPR2/ALX, FPR3), triggering GPCR signalling that inhibits neutrophil transendothelial migration and promotes resolution of inflammation as an effector of glucocorticoid action.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:10882119
    Peptides derived from the unique N-terminal domain of annexin I serve as FPR ligands and trigger different signaling pathways in a dose-dependent manner.
  • PMID:15187149
    a peptide derived from the N-terminal domain of the anti-inflammatory protein annexin 1 (lipocortin 1) can activate all three FPR family members at similar concentrations.
  • PMID:12475898
    Anx-1-/- mice exhibit an exaggerated response to the stimuli characterized by an increase in leukocyte emigration and IL-1beta generation and a partial or complete resistance to the antiinflammatory effects of glucocorticoids.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Does full-length secreted ANXA1, as opposed to the Ac2-26 peptide, activate FPR1 and FPR3 in vivo, or is FPR2/ALX the principal physiological receptor?

Q: Is ANXA1-mediated inhibition of phospholipase A2 ever physiologically relevant in cells, or is it entirely explained by substrate sequestration in vitro?

Q: Should the alpha-2-macroglobulin calcium-dependent protein binding IPI (PMID:15226301) be attributed to ANXA1, given the abstract identifies annexin VI as the binder?

Q: What is the relative contribution of EV-mediated versus TMED10-dependent unconventional secretion to extracellular ANXA1 pools in neutrophils and epithelia?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare wild-type versus cathepsin G/proteinase 3-resistant ANXA1 N-terminal mutants for FPR1/FPR2/FPR3 activation (BRET G protein and beta-arrestin assays) and for inhibition of neutrophil transendothelial migration in Fpr1/Fpr2 knockout backgrounds.

Hypothesis: Physiological anti-inflammatory effects of ANXA1 require FPR2/ALX engagement by full-length protein rather than proteolytically released Ac2-26.

Type: receptor pharmacology

Experiment: Measure direct ANXA1-PLA2 (cPLA2alpha, sPLA2-IIA) binding by SPR in the absence of lipid, and test inhibition at varying substrate interface concentrations to distinguish enzyme inhibition from interfacial competition.

Hypothesis: ANXA1 does not directly bind and inhibit phospholipase A2 enzymes.

Type: biochemical assay
