In eukaryotic cells, protein secretion provides a complex organizational problem. Secretory proteins are first transported, in an unfolded state, across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and are then carried in small vesicles to the Golgi apparatus and finally to the cell membrane. The ER contains soluble proteins which catalyse the folding of newly synthesized polypeptides. These proteins are sorted from secretory proteins in the Golgi complex: they carry a sorting signal (the tetrapeptide KDEL or a related sequence) that allows them to be selectively retrieved and returned to the ER. This retrieval process also appears to be used by some bacterial toxins to aid their invasion of the cell: these toxins contain KDEL-like sequences and may, in effect, follow the secretory pathway in reverse. The membrane-bound receptor responsible for sorting luminal ER proteins has been identified in yeast by genetic means, and related receptors are found in mammalian cells. Unexpectedly, this receptor has a second role: in yeast it is required to maintain the normal size and function of the Golgi apparatus. By helping to maintain the composition of both ER and Golgi compartments, the KDEL receptor has an important role in the organization of the secretory pathway. 相似文献

Sequence of a second human KDEL receptor. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Retention of luminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins is mediated via a conserved carboxy-terminal tetrapeptide that serves as a signal for their retrieval from subsequent compartments of the secretory pathway. The signal is recognized by a receptor molecule that is believed to cycle between the Golgi apparatus and the ER. This receptor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is encoded by the ERD2 gene, and a human cDNA homologue of the gene has been isolated. Binding of ligand by the product of this gene results in a shift of its steady-state location from Golgi to ER, suggesting that retrograde transport has been triggered. Here we report the identification of a related human protein with similar properties. This indicates that there are at least two distinct genes in humans that encode functional KDEL receptors. 相似文献

Toxoplasma gondii and malaria parasites contain a unique and essential relict plastid called the apicoplast. Most apicoplast proteins are encoded in the nucleus and are transported to the organelle via the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Three trafficking routes have been proposed for apicoplast membrane proteins: (i) vesicular trafficking from the ER to the Golgi and then to the apicoplast, (ii) contiguity between the ER membrane and the apicoplast allowing direct flow of proteins, and (iii) vesicular transport directly from the ER to the apicoplast. Previously, we identified a set of membrane proteins of the T. gondii apicoplast which were also detected in large vesicles near the organelle. Data presented here show that the large vesicles bearing apicoplast membrane proteins are not the major carriers of luminal proteins. The vesicles continue to appear in parasites which have lost their plastid due to mis-segregation, indicating that the vesicles are not derived from the apicoplast. To test for a role of the Golgi body in vesicle formation, parasites were treated with brefeldin A or transiently transfected with a dominant-negative mutant of Sar1, a GTPase required for ER to Golgi trafficking. The immunofluorescence patterns showed little change. These findings were confirmed using stable transfectants, which expressed the toxic dominant-negative sar1 following Cre-loxP mediated promoter juxtaposition. Our data support the hypothesis that the large vesicles do not mediate the trafficking of luminal proteins to the apicoplast. The results further show that the large vesicles bearing apicoplast membrane proteins continue to be observed in the absence of Golgi and plastid function. These data raise the possibility that the apicoplast proteome is generated by two novel ER to plastid trafficking pathways, plus the small set of proteins encoded by the apicoplast genome. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi have robust bidirectional traffic between them and yet form distinct membrane compartments. Membrane tubules are pulled from large aggregates of ER or Golgi by microtubule motors to form ER tubulovesicular networks or Golgi tubules both in vivo and in vitro. The physical properties of membranes are critical for membrane traffic and organelle morphology. For example, tension applied to membranes can create tethers, drive membrane flow, and set the diameter of the tubules. Here, we formed ER and Golgi membrane networks in vitro and used optical tweezers to measure directly, for the first time, the membrane tensions of these organelles to clarify the possible role of tension in membrane flow. We report that higher forces are needed to form tethers from ER (18.6 +/- 2.8 pN) than from Golgi (11.4 +/- 1.4 pN) membrane tubules in vitro. Since ER tubules are smaller in diameter than Golgi tubules, it follows that Golgi networks have a lower tension than ER. The lower tension of the ER could be an explanation of how Golgi tubules can be rapidly drawn into the ER by tension-driven flow after fusion, as is observed in vivo. 相似文献

Summary Dictyosome-like structures (DLS) are formed in early spermatocytes first as single saccules. These saccules occur in association with forms of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) characterized by a paucity of ribosomes and luminal content, by a constriction of the lumina, and by a tendency to fragment or form myelin figures during fixation. Nascent DLS and the unusual ER cisternae share many characteristics in common including a pattern of staining with fixatives containing tannic acid where the membranes appear thin due to the inner membrane leaflet being unstained or poorly stained. DLS also appear to form in the region conventional Golgi apparatus but always in association with ER forms that frequently occupy portions of the Golgi apparatus zone.An ability to stain with phosphotungstic acid at low pH exhibited by DLS is given also by the specialized ER forms. One possibility for DLS formation suggested by the present study is that DLS cisternae differentiate from ER membranes after which they ultimately associate into the stacked configurations that characterize mature DLS. 相似文献

Topology of asialoglycoprotein receptor in rat liver subcellular fractions: a ferritin immunoelectron microscopic study 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Direct ferritin immunoelectron microscopy was used to visualize the asialoglycoprotein receptor in various rat liver subcellular fractions. The cytoplasmic surfaces of cytoplasmic organelles such as the rough and smooth microsomes, Golgi cisternae and lysosomes showed hardly any ferritin label exception for the slight labeling of secretory granules found mainly in the light Golgi fraction (GF1). Occasionally, however, open membrane sheet structures, smooth vesicular or tubular structures heavily labeled with ferritin, were present in all these subcellular fractions. These structures probably correspond to fragmented sinusoidal or lateral hepatocyte plasma membranes recovered to these subcellular fractions. When the limiting membranes of the secretion granules were partially broken by mechanical force, a number of ferritin particles frequently were seen attached in large clusters to the luminal surface of the membrane, the cytoplasmic surface of the corresponding domain being slightly labeled. These observations are strong evidence that the receptor protein is never translocated vertically throughout the intracellular transport from ER to plasma membrane via Golgi apparatus and from plasma membrane back to trans-Golgi elements and also in lysosomes, always exposing the major antigenic sites to the luminal or extracellular surface and the minor counterparts to the cytoplasmic surface of the membranes. The receptor protein also is suggested to be concentrated in clusters on the luminal surface of secretion granules when they form on the trans-side of the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

The mechanisms that control protein transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus are poorly characterized in plants. Here, we examine in tobacco leaves the structural relationship between Golgi and ER membranes using electron microscopy and demonstrate that Golgi membranes contain elements that are in close association and/or in direct contact with the ER. We further visualized protein trafficking between the ER and the Golgi using Golgi marker proteins tagged with green fluorescent protein. Using photobleaching techniques, we showed that Golgi membrane markers constitutively cycle to and from the Golgi in an energy-dependent and N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive manner. We found that membrane protein transport toward the Golgi occurs independently of the cytoskeleton and does not require the Golgi to be motile along the surface of the ER. Brefeldin A treatment blocked forward trafficking of Golgi proteins before their redistribution into the ER. Our results indicate that in plant cells, the Golgi apparatus is a dynamic membrane system whose components continuously traffic via membrane trafficking pathways regulated by brefeldin A- and N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive machinery. 相似文献

Glycosylphosphatidylinositols (GPI) are essential components in the plasma membrane of the protozoan parasite Leishmania mexicana, both as membrane anchors for the major surface macromolecules and as the sole class of free glycolipids. We provide evidence that L.mexicana dolichol-phosphate-mannose synthase (DPMS), a key enzyme in GPI biosynthesis, is localized to a distinct tubular subdomain of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), based on the localization of a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-DPMS chimera and subcellular fractionation experiments. This tubular membrane (termed the DPMS tubule) is also enriched in other enzymes involved in GPI biosynthesis, can be specifically stained with the fluorescent lipid, BODIPY-C5-ceramide, and appears to be connected to specific subpellicular microtubules that underlie the plasma membrane. Perturbation of microtubules and DPMS tubule structure in vivo results in the selective accumulation of GPI anchor precursors, but not free GPIs. The DPMS tubule is closely associated morphologically with the single Golgi apparatus in non-dividing and dividing cells, appears to exclude luminal ER resident proteins and is labeled, together with the Golgi apparatus, with another GFP chimera containing the heterologous human Golgi marker beta1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-I. The possibility that the DPMS-tubule is a stable transitional ER is discussed. 相似文献

CLN6 is a polytopic membrane protein of unknown function resident in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Mutant CLN6 causes the lysosomal storage disorder neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. Defining the topology of CLN6, and the structural domains and motifs required for interaction with cytosolic and luminal proteins may allow insights into its function. In this study we analysed the topology, ER retention and oligomerization of CLN6. We demonstrated, by differential membrane permeabilization of transfected BHK cells using specific detergents and two distinct antibodies, that CLN6 contains an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, seven transmembrane domains, and a luminal C terminus. Mutational analyses and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy showed that changes of potential ER localization signals in the N- or C-terminal domain (a triple arginine cluster, and a dileucine motif) did not alter the subcellular localization of CLN6. The deletion of a dilysine motif impaired partially the ER localization of CLN6. Furthermore, expression analyses of fusion and deletion constructs in non-neuronal and neuronal cells suggested that two portions of CLN6 contributed to its retention within the ER. We showed that the N-terminal domain was necessary but not sufficient for ER retention of CLN6 and that deletion of transmembrane domains 6 and 7 was accompanied with the loss of ER localization and, in some instances, trafficking to the cisGolgi. From these data we concluded that CLN6 maintains its ER localization by expressing retention signals present in both the N-terminal cytosolic domain and in the carboxy-proximal transmembrane domains 6 and 7. Additionally, the ability of CLN6 to homodimerize may also prevent exit from the ER via an interaction with membrane-associated factors. 相似文献

Several soluble proteins that reside in the lumen of the ER contain a specific C-terminal sequence (KDEL) which prevents their secretion. This sequence may be recognized by a receptor that either immobilizes the proteins in the ER, or sorts them from other proteins at a later point in the secretory pathway and returns them to their normal location. To distinguish these possibilities, I have attached an ER retention signal to the lysosomal protein cathepsin D. The oligosaccharide side chains of this protein are normally modified sequentially by two enzymes to form mannose-6-phosphate residues; these enzymes do not act in the ER, but are thought to be located in separate compartments within (or near) the Golgi apparatus. Cathepsin D bearing the ER signal accumulates within the ER, but continues to be modified by the first of the mannose-6-phosphate forming enzymes. Modification is strongly temperature-dependent, which is also a feature of ER-to-Golgi transport. These results support the idea that luminal ER proteins are continuously retrieved from a post-ER compartment, and that this compartment contains N-acetylglucosaminyl-1-phosphotransferase activity. 相似文献

Oligomerization of a cargo receptor directs protein sorting into COPII-coated transport vesicles

Secretory proteins are transported from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi complex in vesicles coated with coat protein complex II (COPII). The incorporation of certain transport molecules (cargo) into the COPII vesicles is thought to be mediated by cargo receptors. Here we show that Emp47p, a type-I membrane protein, is specifically required for the transport of an integral membrane protein, Emp46p, from the ER. Exit of Emp46p from the ER was saturable and dependent on the expression level of Emp47p. Emp46p binding to Emp47p occurs in the ER through the coiled-coil region in the luminal domains of both Emp47p and Emp46p, and dissociation occurs in the Golgi. Further, this coiled-coil region is also required for Emp47p to form an oligomeric complex of itself in the ER, which is essential for exit of Emp47p from the ER. Our results suggest that Emp47p is a receptor protein for Emp46p that allows for the selective transport of this protein, and this event involves receptor oligomerization. 相似文献

Cyclooxygenases (COXs) catalyze the committed step in prostaglandin (PG) biosynthesis. COX-1 is constitutively expressed and stable, whereas COX-2 is inducible and short lived. COX-2 is degraded via endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) following post-translational glycosylation of Asn-594. COX-1 and COX-2 are found in abundance on the luminal surfaces of the ER and inner membrane of the nuclear envelope. Using confocal immunocytofluorescence, we detected both COX-2 and microsomal PGE synthase-1 (mPGES-1) but not COX-1 in the Golgi apparatus. Inhibition of trafficking between the ER and Golgi retarded COX-2 ERAD. COX-2 has a C-terminal STEL sequence, which is an inefficient ER retention signal. Substituting this sequence with KDEL, a robust ER retention signal, concentrated COX-2 in the ER where it was stable and slowly glycosylated on Asn-594. Native COX-2 and a recombinant COX-2 having a Golgi targeting signal but not native COX-1 exhibited efficient catalytic coupling to mPGES-1. We conclude that N-glycosylation of Asn-594 of COX-2 occurs in the ER, leading to anterograde movement of COX-2 to the Golgi where the Asn-594-linked glycan is trimmed prior to retrograde COX-2 transport to the ER for ERAD. Having an inefficient ER retention signal leads to sluggish Golgi to ER transit of COX-2. This permits significant Golgi residence time during which COX-2 can function catalytically. Cytosolic phospholipase A2α, which mobilizes arachidonic acid for PG synthesis, preferentially translocates to the Golgi in response to physiologic Ca2+ mobilization. We propose that cytosolic phospholipase A2α, COX-2, and mPGES-1 in the Golgi comprise a dedicated system for COX-2-dependent PGE2 biosynthesis. 相似文献

Microtubule disruption has dramatic effects on the normal centrosomal localization of the Golgi complex, with Golgi elements remaining as competent functional units but undergoing a reversible "fragmentation" and dispersal throughout the cytoplasm. In this study we have analyzed this process using digital fluorescence image processing microscopy combined with biochemical and ultrastructural approaches. After microtubule depolymerization, Golgi membrane components were found to redistribute to a distinct number of peripheral sites that were not randomly distributed, but corresponded to sites of protein exit from the ER. Whereas Golgi enzymes redistributed gradually over several hours to these peripheral sites, ERGIC-53 (a protein which constitutively cycles between the ER and Golgi) redistributed rapidly (within 15 minutes) to these sites after first moving through the ER. Prior to this redistribution, Golgi enzyme processing of proteins exported from the ER was inhibited and only returned to normal levels after Golgi enzymes redistributed to peripheral ER exit sites where Golgi stacks were regenerated. Experiments examining the effects of microtubule disruption on the membrane pathways connecting the ER and Golgi suggested their potential role in the dispersal process. Whereas clustering of peripheral pre-Golgi elements into the centrosomal region failed to occur after microtubule disruption, Golgi-to-ER membrane recycling was only slightly inhibited. Moreover, conditions that impeded Golgi-to-ER recycling completely blocked Golgi fragmentation. Based on these findings we propose that a slow but constitutive flux of Golgi resident proteins through the same ER/Golgi cycling pathways as ERGIC-53 underlies Golgi Dispersal upon microtubule depolymerization. Both ERGIC-53 and Golgi proteins would accumulate at peripheral ER exit sites due to failure of membranes at these sites to cluster into the centrosomal region. Regeneration of Golgi stacks at these peripheral sites would re-establish secretory flow from the ER into the Golgi complex and result in Golgi dispersal. 相似文献

Lysosomal membrane proteins are delivered from their synthesis site, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to late endosomes/lysosomes through the Golgi complex. It has been proposed that after leaving the Golgi they are transported either directly or indirectly (via the cell surface) to late endosomes/lysosomes. In the present study, we examined the transport routes taken by two structurally different lysosomal membrane proteins, LGP85 and LGP107, in rat 3Y1-B cells. Here we show that newly synthesized LGP85 and LGP107 are delivered to late endosomes/lysosomes via a direct route without passing through the cell surface. Interestingly, although LGP107 is delivered from the Golgi to early endosomes containing internalized horseradish peroxidase-conjugated transferrin (HRP-Tfn) en route to lysosomes, LGP85 does not pass through the HRP-Tfn-positive early endosomes. These results suggest, therefore, that LGP85 and LGP107 are sorted into distinct transport vesicles at the post-Golgi, presumably the trans-Golgi network (TGN), after which LGP85 is delivered directly to late endosomes/lysosomes, but significant fractions of LGP107 are targeted to early endosomes before transport to late endosomes/lysosomes. This study provides the first evidence that after exiting from the Golgi, LGP85 and LGP107 are targeted to late endosomes/lysosomes via a different pathway. 相似文献

Summary Wild carrot (Daucus carota L.) cells, grown in suspension culture, were labeled with radioactive precursors and fractionated into constituent membranes to be analyzed for specific radioactivity. Results show rapid incorporation of [3H] leucine into endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-, Golgi apparatus-, and plasma membrane/tonoplast-enriched fractions. The time lag between incorporation into ER and its appearance in Golgi apparatus or plasma membrane/tonoplast were less than 5 minutes. With an average time of 3–4 minutes for cisternal formation estimated from studies with monensin, and an average of 5 cisternae per dictyosome (total transit time of 15–20 minutes), it was not possible to account for early incorporation of radioactivity into plasma membranes by passage of proteins from ER to plasma membrane via the Golgi apparatus. To account for the findings, it would appear that at least some proteins were delivered to the plasma membrane via the first membranes that exited (i.e., mature face vesicles) from the Golgi apparatus post-pulse and that some of these proteins had been translated and inserted into membranes at or near the mature face of the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

Transport route for synaptobrevin via a novel pathway of insertion into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Synaptobrevin/vesicle-associated membrane protein is one of the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins. It is proposed to provide specificity for the targeting and fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane. It belongs to a class of membrane proteins which lack a signal sequence and contain a single hydrophobic segment close to their C-terminus, leaving most of the polypeptide chain in the cytoplasm (tail-anchored). We show that in neuroendocrine PC12 cells, synaptobrevin is not directly incorporated into the target organelle, synaptic-like vesicles. Rather, it is first inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and is then transported via the Golgi apparatus. Its insertion into the ER membrane in vitro occurs post-translationally, is dependent on ATP and results in a trans-membrane orientation of the hydrophobic tail. Membrane integration requires ER protein(s) different from the translocation components needed for proteins with signal sequences, thus suggesting a novel mechanism of insertion. 相似文献

Background information. Syntaxin 17 is a SNARE (soluble N‐ethylmaleimide‐sensitive‐factor‐attachment protein receptor) protein that predominantly localizes to the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) and to some extent in the ERGIC (ER—Golgi intermediate compartment). Syntaxin 17 has been suggested to function as a receptor at the ER membrane that mediates trafficking between the ER and post‐ER compartments. It has a unique 33 amino acid luminal tail whose function is not known. Here we have investigated the structural requirements for localization of syntaxin 17 to the ERGIC and its role in trafficking. Results. Deletion analysis showed that syntaxin 17 required its cytoplasmic domain to exit the ER and localize to the ERGIC. Mutation of a conserved tyrosine residue in the cytoplasmic domain resulted in reduced localization of syntaxin 17 in the ERGIC and ER‐exit sites, suggesting the presence of a tyrosine‐based ER export motif. Syntaxin 17 also required its C‐terminal tail to localize to the ERES (ER exit sites) and ERGIC. Knockdown of syntaxin 17 destabilized the ERGIC organization and also caused fragmentation of the Golgi complex. Syntaxin 17 showed direct interaction with transmembrane proteins p23 and p25 (cargo receptors that cycle between the ER and Golgi) with the help of its C‐terminal tail. Overexpression of syntaxin 17 redistributed β‐COP (β‐coatomer protein) which required its C‐terminal tail. Overexpression of syntaxin 17 also blocked the anterograde transport of VSVG (vesicular stomatitis virus G‐protein) in the ERGIC. Conclusions. We show that syntaxin 17 has a tyrosine‐based motif which is required for its incorporation into COPII (coatomer protein II) vesicles, exit from the ER and localization to the ERGIC. Our results suggest that syntaxin 17 cycles between the ER and ERGIC through classical trafficking pathways involving COPII and COPI (coatomer protein I) vesicles, which requires its unique C‐terminal tail. We also show that syntaxin 17 is essential for maintaining the architecture of ERGIC and Golgi. 相似文献
