The Drosophila embryonic body plan is specified by asymmetries that arise in the oocyte during oogenesis. These asymmetries are apparent in the subcellular distribution of key mRNAs and proteins and in the organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton. We present evidence that the Drosophila oocyte also contains important asymmetries in its membrane trafficking pathways. Specifically, we show that alpha-adaptin and Rab11, which function critically in the endocytic pathways of all previously examined animal cells, are localized to neighboring compartments at the posterior pole of stage 8-10 oocytes. Rab11 and alpha-adaptin localization occurs in the absence of a polarized microtubule cytoskeleton, i.e. in grk null mutants, but is later reinforced and/or refined by Osk, the localization of which is microtubule dependent. Analyses of germline clones of a rab11 partial loss-of-function mutation reveal a requirement for Rab11 in endocytic recycling and in the organization of posterior membrane compartments. Such analyses also reveal a requirement for Rab11 in the organization of microtubule plus ends and osk mRNA localization and translation. We propose that microtubule plus ends and, possibly, translation factors for osk mRNA are anchored to posterior membrane compartments that are defined by Rab11-mediated trafficking and reinforced by Rab11-Osk interactions. 相似文献

Primary cilia regulate epithelial differentiation and organ function. Failure of mutant polycystins to localize to cilia abolishes flow-stimulated calcium signaling and causes autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. We identify a conserved amino acid sequence, KVHPSST, in the C-terminus of polycystin-1 (PC1) that serves as a ciliary-targeting signal. PC1 binds a multimeric protein complex consisting of several GTPases (Arf4, Rab6, Rab11) and the GTPase-activating protein (GAP), ArfGAP with SH3 domain, ankyrin repeat and PH domain 1 (ASAP1) in the Golgi, which facilitates vesicle budding and Golgi exocytosis. A related N-terminal ciliary-targeting sequence in polycystin-2 similarly binds Arf4. Deletion of the extreme C-terminus of PC1 ablates Arf4 and ASAP1 binding and prevents ciliary localization of an integral membrane CD16.7-PC1 chimera. Interactions are confirmed for chimeric and endogenous proteins through quantitated in vitro and cell-based approaches. PC1 also complexes with Rab8; knockdown of trafficking regulators Arf4 or Rab8 functionally blocks CD16.7-PC1 trafficking to cilia. Mutations in rhodopsin disrupt a similar signal and cause retinitis pigmentosa, while Bardet-Biedl syndrome, primary open-angle glaucoma, and tumor cell invasiveness are linked to dysregulation of ASAP1 or Rab8 or its effectors. In this paper, we provide evidence for a conserved GTPase-dependent ciliary-trafficking mechanism that is shared between epithelia and neurons, and is essential in ciliary-trafficking and cell homeostasis. 相似文献

Sensory functions of primary cilia rely on ciliary-localized membrane proteins, but little is known about how these receptors are targeted to the cilium. To further our understanding of this process, we dissected the ciliary targeting sequence (CTS) of fibrocystin, the human autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease gene product. We show that the fibrocystin CTS is an 18-residue motif localized in the cytoplasmic tail. This motif is sufficient to target green fluorescent protein (GFP) to cilia of ciliated cells and targets GFP to lipid rafts if the cells are not ciliated. Rab8, but not several other Rabs implicated in ciliary assembly, binds to the CTS in a coimmunoprecipitation assay. Dominant-negative Rab8 interacts more strongly than wild-type or constitutively active Rab8, and coexpression of this dominant-negative mutant Rab8 blocks trafficking to the cilium. This suggests that the CTS functions by binding regulatory proteins like Rab8 to control trafficking through the endomembrane system and on to the cilium. 相似文献

Membrane trafficking in male germ cells contributes to their development
via cell morphological changes and acrosome formation. TBC family
proteins work as Rab GTPase accelerating proteins (GAPs), which negatively regulate Rab
proteins, to mediate membrane trafficking. In this study, we analyzed the expression of a
Rab GAP, TBC1D9, in mouse organs and the intracellular localization of the gene products.
Tbc1d9 showed abundant expression in adult mice testis. We found that
the Tbc1d9 mRNA was expressed in primary and secondary spermatocytes, and
that the TBC1D9 protein was expressed in spermatocytes and round spermatids. In 293T
cells, TBC1D9-GFP proteins were localized in the endosome and Golgi apparatus.
Compartments that were positive for the constitutive active mutants of Rab7 and Rab9 were
also positive for TBC1D9 isoform 1. In addition, TBC1D9 proteins were associated with Rab7
and Rab9, respectively. These results indicate that TBC1D9 is expressed mainly in
spermatocytes, and suggest that TBC1D9 regulates membrane trafficking pathways related to
Rab9- or Rab7-positive vesicles. 相似文献

Primary cilia are microtubule-based solitary membrane projections on the cell surface that play important roles in signaling and development. Recent studies have demonstrated that polarized vesicular trafficking involving the small GTPase Rab8 and its guanine nucleotide exchange factor Rabin8 is essential for primary ciliogenesis. In this study, we show that a highly conserved region of Rabin8 is pivotal for its activation as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rab8. In addition, in its activated conformation, Rabin8 interacts with Sec15, a subunit of the exocyst and downstream effector of Rab8. Expression of constitutively activated Rab8 promotes the association of Sec15 with Rabin8. Using immunofluorescence microscopy, we found that Sec15 co-localized with Rab8 along the primary cilium. Inhibition of Sec15 function in cells led to defects in primary ciliogenesis. The Rabin8-Rab8-Sec15 interaction may couple the activation of Rab8 to the recruitment of the Rab8 effector and is involved in the regulation of vesicular trafficking for primary cilium formation. 相似文献

Rab11-FIP2 functions in transferrin recycling and associates with endosomal membranes via its COOH-terminal domain 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rab11-FIP2 is a recently described member of the Rip11/Rab11-FIP/Rab coupling protein family of Rab11 interacting proteins. Rab11-FIP2 interacts with both Rab11 and myosin Vb and co-localizes with Rab11 in both HeLa and Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (Hales, C. M., Griner, R., Hobdy-Henderson, K. C., Dorn, M. C., Hardy, D., Kumar, R., Navarre, J., Chan, E. K., Lapierre, L. A., and Goldenring, J. R. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 39067-390751). Here, we characterized the specificity of the interaction between Rab11-FIP2 and Rab11 and report that it does not interact with Rab4, Rab3, Rab5, Rab6, or Rab7. We demonstrate that the COOH-terminal region of Rab11-FIP2, which contains the Rab11 binding domain (RBD), is necessary and sufficient for its early endosomal membrane association. In contrast, the amino-terminal region, which contains a phospholipid binding C2-domain, by itself was insufficient for membrane binding. Expression of a deletion mutant of Rab11-FIP2, containing the RBD, caused tubulation of a transferrin receptor-positive early endosomal compartment in HeLa cells. Endogenous Rab11 was also associated with this compartment. This phenotype cannot be reversed by excess wild-type Rab11, or dominant-positive Rab11 (Rab11Q70L), suggesting that Rab11-FIP2 functions downstream of Rab11 in endosomal trafficking. 相似文献

A role for Tctex-1 (DYNLT1) in controlling primary cilium length 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The microtubule motor complex cytoplasmic dynein is known to be involved in multiple processes including endomembrane organization and trafficking, mitosis, and microtubule organization. The majority of studies of cytoplasmic dynein have focused on the form of the motor that is built around the dynein-1 heavy chain. A second isoform, dynein heavy chain-2, and its specifically associated light intermediate chain, LIC3 (D2LIC), are known to be involved in the formation and function of primary cilia. We have used RNAi in human epithelial cells to define the cytoplasmic dynein subunits that function with dynein heavy chain 2 in primary cilia. We identify the dynein light chain Tctex-1 as a key modulator of cilia length control; depletion of Tctex-1 results in longer cilia as defined by both acetylated tubulin labeling of the axoneme and Rab8a labeling of the cilia membrane. Suppression of dynein heavy chain-2 causes concomitant loss of Tctex-1 and this correlates with an increase in cilia length. Compared to individual depletions, double siRNA depletion of DHC2 and Tctex-1 causes an even greater increase in cilia length. Our data show that Tctex-1 is a key regulator of cilia length and most likely functions as part of dynein-2. 相似文献

Rab family guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) together with their regulators define specific pathways of membrane traffic within eukaryotic cells. In this study, we have investigated which Rab GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) can interfere with the trafficking of Shiga toxin from the cell surface to the Golgi apparatus and studied transport of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) from the cell surface to endosomes. This screen identifies 6 (EVI5, RN-tre/USP6NL, TBC1D10A-C, and TBC1D17) of 39 predicted human Rab GAPs as specific regulators of Shiga toxin but not EGF uptake. We show that Rab43 is the target of RN-tre and is required for Shiga toxin uptake. In contrast, RabGAP-5, a Rab5 GAP, was unique among the GAPs tested and reduced the uptake of EGF but not Shiga toxin. These results suggest that Shiga toxin trafficking to the Golgi is a multistep process controlled by several Rab GAPs and their target Rabs and that this process is discrete from ligand-induced EGF receptor trafficking. 相似文献

Rab-family GTPases are conserved regulators of membrane trafficking that cycle between inactive GDP-bound and activated GTP-bound states. A key determinant of Rab function is the lifetime of the GTP-bound state. As Rabs have a low intrinsic rate of GTP hydrolysis, this process is under the control of GTP-hydrolysis-activating proteins (GAPs). Due to the large number of Rabs and GAPs that are encoded by the human genome, it has proven difficult to assign specific functional relationships to these proteins. Here, we identify a Rab5-specific GAP (RabGAP-5), and show that RN-Tre (previously described as a Rab5 GAP) acts on Rab41. RabGAP-5 overexpression triggers a loss of the Rab5 effector EEA1 from endosomes and blocks endocytic trafficking. By contrast, depletion of RabGAP-5 results in increased endosome size, more endosome-associated EEA1, and disrupts the trafficking of EGF and LAMP1. RabGAP-5 therefore limits the amount of activated Rab5, and thereby regulates trafficking through endosomes. 相似文献

Endosomal trafficking is an essential cellular process involved in the transport of proteins such as integrins, hormone receptors, growth factor receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases, and lipids (e.g. sphingomyelin). Regulation of this process is highly complex and involves Arf GAPs, SNAREs, Rab proteins, Rho GTPases and the actin cytoskeleton. In this article, we focus on the intracellular targeting of the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases (nRTKs), and the role of endosomes in the delivery of nRTKs to the plasma membrane. Furthermore, we discuss the role of the actin cytoskeleton in this process and consider how endosome-regulated intracellular trafficking affects cell signalling. 相似文献

Members of the Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16 (TBC) family of proteins are believed to function as GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) for Rab GTPases, which play pivotal roles in intracellular membrane trafficking. Although membrane trafficking is fundamental to neuronal morphogenesis and function, the roles of TBC-family Rab GAPs have been poorly characterized in the nervous system. In this paper, we provide genetic evidence that Tbc1d15–17, the Drosophila homolog of mammalian Rab7-GAP TBC1d15, is required for normal presynaptic growth and postsynaptic organization at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). A loss-of-function mutation in Tbc1d15–17 or its presynaptic knockdown leads to an increase in synaptic bouton number and NMJ length. Tbc1d15–17 mutants are also defective in the distribution of the postsynaptic scaffold Discs-large (Dlg) and in the level of the postsynaptic glutamate subunit GluRIIA. These postsynaptic phenotypes are recapitulated by postsynaptic knockdown of Tbc1d15–17. We also show that presynaptic overexpression of a constitutively active Rab7 mutant in a wild-type background causes a synaptic overgrowth phenotype resembling that of Tbc1d15–17 mutants, while a dominant-negative form of Rab7 has the opposite effect. Together, our findings establish a novel role for Tbc1d15–17 and its potential substrate Rab7 in regulating synaptic development. 相似文献

The Drosophila melanogaster body axes are defined by the precise localization and the restriction of molecular determinants in the oocyte. Polarization of the oocyte during oogenesis is vital for this process. The directed traffic of membranes and proteins is a crucial component of polarity establishment in various cell types and organisms. Here, we investigate the role of the small GTPase Rab6 in the organization of the egg chamber and in asymmetric determinant localization during oogenesis. We show that exocytosis is affected in rab6-null egg chambers, which display a loss of nurse cell plasma membranes. Rab6 is also required for the polarization of the oocyte microtubule cytoskeleton and for the posterior localization of oskar mRNA. We show that, in vivo, Rab6 is found in a complex with Bicaudal-D, and that Rab6 and Bicaudal-D cooperate in oskar mRNA localization. Thus, during Drosophila oogenesis, Rab6-dependent membrane trafficking is doubly required; first, for the general organization and growth of the egg chamber, and second, more specifically, for the polarization of the microtubule cytoskeleton and localization of oskar mRNA. These findings highlight the central role of vesicular trafficking in the establishment of polarity and in determinant localization in Drosophila. 相似文献

Transcytosis through the apical recycling system of polarized cells is regulated by Rab11a and a series of Rab11a-interacting proteins. We have identified a point mutant in Rab11 family interacting protein 2 (Rab11-FIP2) that alters the function of Rab11a-containing trafficking systems. Rab11-FIP2(S229A/R413G) or Rab11-FIP2(R413G) cause the formation of a tubular cisternal structure containing Rab11a and decrease the rate of polymeric IgA transcytosis. The R413G mutation does not alter Rab11-FIP interactions with any known binding partners. Overexpression of Rab11-FIP2(S229A/R413G) alters the localization of a subpopulation of the apical membrane protein GP135. In contrast, Rab11-FIP2(129-512) alters the localization of early endosome protein EEA1. The distributions of both Rab11-FIP2(S229A/R413G) and Rab11-FIP2(129-512) were not dependent on the integrity of the microtubule cytoskeleton. The results indicate that Rab11-FIP2 regulates trafficking at multiple points within the apical recycling system of polarized cells.

The morphogenesis of Drosophila sensory bristles is dependent on the function of their actin and microtubule cytoskeleton. Actin filaments are important for bristle shape and elongation, while microtubules are thought to mediate protein and membrane trafficking to promote growth. We have identified an essential role for the bristle cuticle in the maintenance of bristle structure and shape at late stages of bristle development. We show that the small GTPase Rab11 mediates the organized deposition of chitin, a major cuticle component in bristles, and disrupting Rab11 function leads to phenotypes that result from bristle collapse rather than a failure to elongate. We further establish that Rab11 is required for the plasma membrane localization of the ZP domain-containing Dusky-like (Dyl) protein and that Dyl is also required for cuticle formation in bristles. Our data argue that Dyl functions as a Rab11 effector for mediating the attachment of the bristle cell membrane to chitin to establish a stable cuticle. Our studies also implicate the exocyst as a Rab11 effector in this process and that Rab11 trafficking along the bristle shaft is mediated by microtubules. 相似文献

Rab proteins are a family of small GTPases which, since their initial identification in the late 1980s, have emerged as master regulators of all stages of intracellular trafficking processes in eukaryotic cells. Rabs cycle between distinct conformations that are dependent on their guanine-nucleotide-bound status. When active (GTP-bound), Rabs are distributed to the cytosolic face of specific membranous compartments where they recruit downstream effector proteins. Rab-effector complexes then execute precise intracellular trafficking steps, which, in many cases, include vesicle motility. Microtubule-based kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein motor complexes are prominent among the classes of known Rab effector proteins. Additionally, many Rabs associate with microtubule-based motors via effectors that act as adaptor molecules that can simultaneously associate with the GTP-bound Rab and specific motor complexes. Thus, through association with motor complexes, Rab proteins can allow for membrane association and directional movement of various vesicular cargos along the microtubule cytoskeleton. In this mini-review, we highlight the expanding repertoire of Rab/microtubule motor protein interactions, and, in doing so, present an outline of the multiplicity of transport processes which result from such interactions. 相似文献

Intracellular trafficking of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulates their surface availability and determines cellular response to agonists. Rab GTPases regulate membrane trafficking and identifying Rab networks controlling GPCR trafficking is essential for understanding GPCR signaling. We used real time imaging to show that somatostatin receptor 3 (SSTR3) traffics through Rab4-, Rab21-, and Rab11-containing endosomes, but largely bypasses Rab5 and Rab7 endosomes. We show that SSTR3 rapidly traffics through Rab4 endosomes but moves slower through Rab21 and Rab11 endosomes. SSTR3 passage through each endosomal compartment is regulated by the cognate Rab since expression of the inactive Rab4/S22N, Rab21/T33N, and Rab11/S25N inhibits SSTR3 trafficking. Thus, Rab4, Rab21, and Rab11 may represent therapeutic targets to modulate surface availability of SSTR3 for agonist binding. Our novel finding that Rab21 regulates SSTR3 trafficking suggests that Rab21 may play a role in trafficking of other GPCRs. 相似文献

ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) and Arf GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) are key regulators of membrane trafficking and the actin cytoskeleton. The Arf GAP ASAP1 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, which can induce membrane tubulation. Here, we report that the BAR domain of ASAP1 can also function as a protein binding site. Two-hybrid screening identified FIP3, which is a putative Arf6- and Rab11-effector, as a candidate ASAP1 BAR domain-binding protein. Both coimmunoprecipitation and in vitro pulldown assays confirmed that ASAP1 directly binds to FIP3 through its BAR domain. ASAP1 formed a ternary complex with Rab11 through FIP3. FIP3 binding to the BAR domain stimulated ASAP1 GAP activity against Arf1, but not Arf6. ASAP1 colocalized with FIP3 in the pericentrosomal endocytic recycling compartment. Depletion of ASAP1 or FIP3 by small interfering RNA changed the localization of transferrin receptor, which is a marker of the recycling endosome, in HeLa cells. The depletion also altered the trafficking of endocytosed transferrin. These results support the conclusion that ASAP1, like FIP3, functions as a component of the endocytic recycling compartment. 相似文献

Dysfunctional trafficking to primary cilia is a frequent cause of human diseases known as ciliopathies, yet molecular mechanisms for specific targeting of sensory receptors to cilia are largely unknown. Here, we show that the targeting of ciliary cargo, represented by rhodopsin, is mediated by a specialized system, the principal component of which is the Arf GAP ASAP1. Ablation of ASAP1 abolishes ciliary targeting and causes formation of actin‐rich periciliary membrane projections that accumulate mislocalized rhodopsin. We find that ASAP1 serves as a scaffold that brings together the proteins necessary for transport to the cilia including the GTP‐binding protein Arf4 and the two G proteins of the Rab family—Rab11 and Rab8—linked by the Rab8 guanine nucleotide exchange factor Rabin8. ASAP1 recognizes the FR ciliary targeting signal of rhodopsin. Rhodopsin FR‐AA mutant, defective in ASAP1 binding, fails to interact with Rab8 and translocate across the periciliary diffusion barrier. Our study implies that other rhodopsin‐like sensory receptors may interact with this conserved system and reach the cilia using the same platform. 相似文献

The superfamily of small, monomeric GTP-binding proteins, in Arabidopsis thaliana comprising 93 members, is classified into four families: Arf/Sar, Rab, Rop/Rac, and Ran families. All monomeric G proteins function as molecular switches that are activated by GTP and inactivated by the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. GTP/GDP cycling is controlled by three classes of regulatory protein: guanine-nucleotide-exchange factors (GEFs), GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), and guanine-nucleotide-dissociation inhibitors (GDIs). Proteins of Arf family are primarily involved in regulation of membrane traffic and organization of the cytoskeleton. Arf1/Sar1 proteins regulate the formation of vesicle coat at different steps in the exocytic and endocytic pathways. Rab GTPases are regulators of vesicular transport. They are involved in vesicle formation, recruitment of cytoskeletal motor proteins, and in vesicle tethering and fusion. Rop proteins serve as key regulators of cytoskeletal reorganization in response to extracellular signals. Several data have also shown that Rop proteins play additional roles in membrane trafficking and regulation of enzymes activity. Ran proteins are involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport. 相似文献

Neuronal differentiation in vitro and in vivo involves coordinated changes in the cellular cytoskeleton and protein trafficking processes. I review here recent progress in our understanding of the membrane trafficking aspects of neurite outgrowth of neurons in culture and selective microtubule-based polarized sorting in fully polarized neurons, focusing on the involvement of some key molecules. Early neurite outgrowth appears to involve the protein trafficking machineries that are responsible for constitutive trans-Golgi network (TGN) to plasma membrane exocytosis, utilizing transport carrier generation mechanisms, SNARE proteins, Rab proteins and tethering mechanisms that are also found in non-neuronal cells. This vectorial TGN-plasma membrane traffic is directed towards several neurites, but can be switch to concentrate on the growth of a single axon. In a mature neuron, polarized targeting to the specific axonal and dendritic domains appears to involve selective microtubule-based mechanisms, utilizing motor proteins capable of distinguishing microtubule tracks to different destinations. The apparent gaps in our knowledge of these related protein transport processes will be highlighted. 相似文献
