Transport of capsids in cells is critical to alphaherpesvirus infection and pathogenesis; however, viral factors required for transport have yet to be identified. Here we provide a detailed examination of capsid dynamics during the egress phase of infection in Vero cells infected with pseudorabies virus. We demonstrate that the VP1/2 tegument protein is required for processive microtubule-based transport of capsids in the cytoplasm. A second tegument protein that binds to VP1/2, UL37, was necessary for wild-type transport but was not essential for this process. Both proteins were also required for efficient nuclear egress of capsids to the cytoplasm. 相似文献

Exchange factors for ARF GTPases (ARF-GEFs) regulate vesicle trafficking in a variety of organisms. The Arabidopsis protein GNOM is a brefeldin A (BFA) sensitive ARF-GEF that is required for the proper polar localization of PIN1, a candidate transporter of the plant hormone auxin. Mutations in GNOM lead to developmental defects that resemble those caused by interfering with auxin transport. Both PIN1 localization and auxin transport are also sensitive to BFA. In this paper, we show that GNOM localizes to endosomes and is required for their structural integrity. We engineered a BFA-resistant version of GNOM. In plants harboring this fully functional GNOM variant, PIN1 localization and auxin transport are no longer sensitive to BFA, while trafficking of other proteins is still affected by the drug. Our results demonstrate that GNOM is required for the recycling of auxin transport components and suggest that ARF-GEFs regulate specific endosomal trafficking pathways. 相似文献

Molecules travel through the yeast endocytic pathway from the cell surface to the lysosome-like vacuole by passing through two sequential intermediates. Immunofluorescent detection of an endocytosed pheromone receptor was used to morphologically identify these intermediates, the early and late endosomes. The early endosome is a peripheral organelle that is heterogeneous in appearance, whereas the late endosome is a large perivacuolar compartment that corresponds to the prevacuolar compartment previously shown to be an endocytic intermediate. We demonstrate that inhibiting transport through the early secretory pathway in sec mutants quickly impedes transport from the early endosome. Treatment of sensitive cells with brefeldin A also blocks transport from this compartment. We provide evidence that Sec18p/N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein, a protein required for membrane fusion, is directly required in vivo for forward transport early in the endocytic pathway. Inhibiting protein synthesis does not affect transport from the early endosome but causes endocytosed proteins to accumulate in the late endosome. As newly synthesized proteins and the late steps of secretion are not required for early to late endosome transport, but endoplasmic reticulum through Golgi traffic is, we propose that efficient forward transport in the early endocytic pathway requires delivery of lipid from secretory organelles to endosomes. 相似文献

Dynactin is a required cofactor for the minus-end-directed microtubule motor cytoplasmic dynein. Mutations within the highly conserved CAP-Gly domain of dynactin cause neurodegenerative disease. Here, we show that the CAP-Gly domain is necessary to enrich dynactin at the distal end of primary neurons. While the CAP-Gly domain is not required for sustained transport along the axon, we find that the distal accumulation facilitates the efficient initiation of retrograde vesicular transport from the neurite tip. Neurodegenerative disease mutations in the CAP-Gly domain prevent the distal enrichment of dynactin thereby inhibiting the initiation of retrograde transport. Thus, we propose a model in which distal dynactin is a key mediator in promoting the interaction among the microtubule, dynein motor, and cargo for the efficient initiation of transport. Mutations in?the CAP-Gly domain disrupt the formation of the?motor-cargo complex, highlighting the specific defects in axonal transport that may lead to neurodegeneration. 相似文献

Sec23p and a novel 105-kDa protein function as a multimeric complex to promote vesicle budding and protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum. 总被引:18,自引:4,他引:14

A cell-free protein transport reaction has been used to monitor the purification of a functional form of the Sec23 protein, a SEC gene product required for the formation or stability of protein transport vesicles that bud from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Previously, we reported that Sec23p is an 84-kDa peripheral membrane protein that is released from a sedimentable fraction by vigorous mechanical agitation of yeast cells and is required for ER to Golgi transport assayed in vitro. We have purified soluble Sec23p by complementation of an in vitro ER to Golgi transport reaction reconstituted with components from sec23 mutant cells. Sec23p overproduced in yeast exists in two forms: a monomeric species and a species that behaves as a 250- to 300-kDa complex that contains Sec23p and a distinct 105-kDa polypeptide (p105). Sec23p purified from cells containing one SEC23 gene exists solely in the large multimeric form. A stable association between Sec23p and p105 is confirmed by cofractionation of the two proteins throughout the purification. p105 is a novel yeast protein involved in ER to Golgi transport. Like Sec23p, it is required for vesicle budding from the ER because p105 antiserum completely inhibits transport vesicle formation in vitro. 相似文献

The energetics of α-aminoisobutyric acid transport were examined in Vibrio costicola grown in a medium containing the NaCl content (1 M) optimal for growth. Respiration rate, the membrane potential (Δψ) and α-aminoisobutyric acid transport had similar pH profiles, with optima at 8.5–9.0. Cells specifically required Na+ ions to transport α-aminoisobutyric acid and to maintain the highest Δψ (150–160 mV). Sodium was not required to sustain high rates of O2-uptake. Δψ (and α-aminoisobutyric acid transport) recovered fully upon addition of Na+ to Na+-deficient cells, showing that Na+ is required in formation or maintenance of the transmembrane gradients of ions. Inhibitions by protonophores, monensin, nigericin and respiratory inhibitors revealed a close correlation between the magnitudes of Δψ and α-aminoisobutyric acid transport. Also, dissipation of Δψ with triphenylmethylphosphonium cation abolished α-aminoisobutyric acid transport without affecting respiration greatly. On the other hand, alcohols which stimulated respiration showed corresponding increases in α-aminoisobutyric acid transport, without affecting Δψ. Similarly, N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (10 μM) stimulated respiration and α-aminoisobutyric acid transport and did not affect Δψ, but caused a dramatic decline in intracellular ATP content. From these, and results obtained with artificially established energy sources (Δψ and Na+ chemical potential), we conclude that Δψ is obligatory for α-aminoisobutyric acid transport, and that for maximum rates of transport an Na+ gradient is also required. 相似文献

The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway in Escherichia coli transports fully folded and assembled proteins across the energy-transducing periplasmic membrane. In chloroplasts, Tat transport requires energy input only from the proton motive force. To elucidate the mechanism and energetics of bacterial Tat protein transport, we developed an efficient in vitro transport assay using TatABC-enriched inverted membrane vesicles and the physiological precursor pre-SufI. We report transport efficiencies of 60-80% for nanomolar pre-SufI concentrations. Dissipation of the pH gradient does not reduce pre-SufI transport efficiency. Instead, pre-SufI transport requires at least two electrical potential (Deltapsi)-dependent steps that differ in both the duration and minimum magnitude of the required Deltapsi. The data are consistent with a model in which a substantial Deltapsi of short duration is required for an early transport step, and in which a small Deltapsi of long duration is necessary to drive a later transport step. 相似文献

An assay designed to measure the formation of functional transport vesicles was constructed by modifying a cell-free assay for protein transport between compartments of the Golgi (Balch, W. E., W. G. Dunphy, W. A. Braell, and J. E. Rothman. 1984. Cell. 39:405-416). A 35-kD cytosolic protein that is immunologically and functionally indistinguishable from alpha SNAP (soluble NSF attachment protein) was found to be required during vesicle formation. SNAP, together with the N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) have previously been implicated in the attachment and/or fusion of vesicles with their target membrane. We show that NSF is also required during the formation of functional vesicles. Strikingly, we found that after vesicle formation, the NEM-sensitive function of NSF was no longer required for transport to proceed through the ensuing steps of vesicle attachment and fusion. In contrast to these functional tests of vesicle formation, SNAP was not required for the morphological appearance of vesicular structures on the Golgi membranes. If SNAP and NSF have a direct role in transport vesicle attachment and/or fusion, as previously suggested, these results indicate that these proteins become incorporated into the vesicle membranes during vesicle formation and are brought to the fusion site on the transport vesicles. 相似文献

We report an essential role for the ras-related small GTP-binding protein rab1b in vesicular transport in mammalian cells. mAbs detect rab1b in both the ER and Golgi compartments. Using an assay which reconstitutes transport between the ER and the cis-Golgi compartment, we find that rab1b is required during an initial step in export of protein from the ER. In addition, it is also required for transport of protein between successive cis- and medial-Golgi compartments. We suggest that rab1b may provide a common link between upstream and downstream components of the vesicular fission and fusion machinery functioning in early compartments of the secretory pathway. 相似文献

The cytoplasmic pH homeostasis of alkalophilic Bacillus strains required the presence of Na+ in the medium, and Li+ was found to be equivalently substitutable for Na+. Flagellar rotation and amino acid transport of these bacteria also required Na+ but Li+ was not substitutable for Na+. Na+ concentration of about 1 mM was enough for the cytoplasmic pH homeostasis, while more than 10 mM Na+ was required for the full activities of flagellar rotation and amino acid transport. The addition of 150 mM ethanolamine to the cells at pH 9.6 disrupted the pH homeostasis and increased the cytoplasmic pH close to the external pH. Under this condition, however, flagellar rotation and amino acid transport were not so much affected. Thus, it is clear that flagellar rotation and amino acid transport themselves require the presence of Na+ in the medium, independent of the Na+-dependent cytoplasmic pH homeostasis. 相似文献

The YPT1 gene encodes a raslike, GTP-binding protein that is essential for growth of yeast cells. We show here that mutations in the ypt1 gene disrupt transport of carboxypeptidase Y to the vacuole in vivo and transport of pro-alpha-factor to a site of extensive glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus in vitro. Two different ypt1 mutations result in loss of function of the Golgi complex without affecting the activity of the endoplasmic reticulum or soluble components required for in vitro transport. The function of the mutant Golgi apparatus can be restored by preincubation with wild-type cytosol. The transport defect observed in vitro cannot be overcome by addition of Ca++ to the reaction mixture. We have also established genetic interactions between ypt1 and a subset of the other genes required for transport to and through the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

Sequences in the nonconsensus nucleotide-binding domain of ABCG5/ABCG8 required for sterol transport
Wang J Grishin N Kinch L Cohen JC Hobbs HH Xie XS 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2011,286(9):7308-7314
ATP-binding cassette transporters ABCG5 (G5) and ABCG8 (G8) form a heterodimer that transports cholesterol and plant sterols from hepatocytes into bile. Mutations that inactivate G5 or G8 cause hypercholesterolemia and premature atherosclerosis. We showed previously that the two nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) in the heterodimer are not functionally equivalent; sterol transport is abolished by mutations in the consensus residues of NBD2 but not of NBD1. Here, we examined the structural requirements of NBD1 for sterol transport. Substitutions of the D-loop aspartate and Q-loop glutamine in either NBD did not impair sterol transport. The H-loop histidine of NBD2 (but not NBD1) was required for sterol transport. Exchange of the signature motifs between the NBDs did not interfere with sterol transport, whereas swapping the Walker A, Walker B, and signature motifs together resulted in failure to transport sterols. Selected substitutions within NBD1 altered substrate specificity: transport of plant sterols by the heterodimer was preserved, whereas transport of cholesterol was abolished. In summary, these data indicate that NBD1, although not required for ATP hydrolysis, is essential for normal function of G5G8 in sterol transport. Both the position and structural integrity of NBD2 are essential for sterol transport activity. 相似文献

Ongoing sphingolipid synthesis is specifically required in vivo for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi transport of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins. However, the sphingolipid intermediates that are required for transport nor their role(s) have been identified. Using stereoisomers of dihydrosphingosine, together with specific inhibitors and a mutant defective for sphingolipid synthesis, we now show that ceramides and/or inositol sphingolipids are indispensable for GPI-anchored protein transport. Furthermore, in the absence of sphingolipid synthesis, a significant fraction of GPI-anchored proteins is no longer associated tightly with the ER membrane. The loose membrane association is neither because of the lack of a GPI-anchor nor because of prolonged ER retention of GPI-anchored proteins. These results indicate that ceramides and/or inositol sphingolipids are required to stabilize the association of GPI-anchored proteins with membranes. They could act either by direct involvement as membrane components or as substrates for the remodeling of GPI lipid moieties. 相似文献

Haemophilus influenzae lipoprotein e (P4) is a member of the DDDD phosphohydrolase superfamily and mediates heme transport. Each of the aspartate residues of the signature motif is required for phosphomonoesterase activity, as none of the e (P4) single D mutants (D64A, D66A, D181N, and D185A) possessed detectable phosphomonoesterase activity. These results suggest that the signature motif is essential to the phosphomonoesterase activity of lipoprotein e (P4). When assessed for phosphomonoesterase-dependent heme transport activity in Escherichia coli hemA strains, plasmids containing D181N and D185A retained heme transport as indicated by aerobic growth while D64A and D66A did not. We conclude that phosphomonoesterase activity is not required for heme transport. 相似文献

Follicle separation during Drosophila oogenesis requires the activity of the kinesin II-associated polypeptide Kap in germline cells

Cellular localization of organelles, protein complexes and single mRNAs depends on the directed transport along microtubule tracks, a process mediated by ATP-driven molecular motor proteins of the dynein and kinesin superfamilies. Kinesin II is a heterotrimeric protein complex composed of two motor subunits and a unique nonmotor Kinesin-associated protein (Kap). Kap was shown to transport both particulate cargo, as axoneme components in rafts, and membrane-bounded organelles such as melanosomes. Drosophila Kinesin II was shown to be essential for the axonal transport of choline acetyltransferase in a specific set of neurons. We have generated Kap mutants and show that gene activity is not only required for neuronal function but also for separation of follicles during early oogenesis. The data suggest that Kap participates in the transport of signalling components required for instructive interactions between germline and soma cells. 相似文献

IutA is the outer membrane protein receptor for ferric aerobactin and the bacteriocin cloacin DF13. Although the same receptor is shared, ferric aerobactin transport across the outer membrane in Escherichia coli is TonB dependent, whereas cloacin DF13 transport is not. We have recently observed that tolQ is required for cloacin DF13 susceptibility (J.A. Thomas and M.A. Valvano, FEMS Microbiol. Lett. 91:107-112, 1992). In this study, we demonstrate that the genes tolQ, tolR, and tolA, but not tolB, tolC, and ompF, are required for the internalization of cloacin DF13 and they are not involved in the transport of ferric aerobactin. 相似文献

Bidirectional microtubule-dependent organelle transport in melanophores is regulated by cAMP through organelle-bound protein kinase A (PKA); however, the mechanisms responsible for this regulation are unknown. A recent study by Gelfand and colleagues demonstrates that, in addition to PKA, transport is regulated by the organelle-bound mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling components ERK and MEK, whose activity is required for bidirectional transport along microtubules. This pathway apparently acts downstream of PKA, suggesting that bidirectional organelle transport is regulated by a hierarchical cascade of signaling pathways. 相似文献

Basolateral sorting in MDCK cells requires a distinct cytoplasmic domain determinant 总被引:40,自引:0,他引:40
In MDCK cells, Golgi to basolateral transport of several membrane proteins has been found to involve a cytoplasmic domain determinant. In some cases (Fc receptor, lysosomal glycoprotein Igp120), the determinant appears similar to that required for endocytosis via clathrin-coated pits; for Igp120, elimination of a single cytoplasmic domain tyrosine both blocks internalization and results in apical transport. In other cases (LDL receptor), the determinant does not involve the cytoplasmic domain tyrosine required for endocytosis. Thus, contrary to current models, basolateral transport in MCDK cells occurs not by default but depends on one or more cytoplasmic domain determinants, the precise nature of which is unknown. For some proteins, it is closely related to coated pit determinants. The fact that many membrane proteins can reach the apical surface in the absence of this determinant suggests that signals for apical transport are widely distributed. 相似文献
