 Tubules constitute an integral part of the Golgi apparatus and have been shown to form a complex and dynamic network at its trans side. We have studied in detail structural features of the trans Golgi network and its relationship with the cisternal stack in thin sections of Lowicryl K4M embedded human absorptive enterocytes by immunolectron microscopy. Immunoreactive sites for α1,3 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase and blood group A substance were detectable troughout the cisternal stack and the entire trans Golgi network. Furthermore, the entire trans Golgi network was reactive for CMPase activity. Evidence for two kinds of tubules at the trans side of the Golgi apparatus was found: tubules that laterally connect adjacent and distant cisternal stacks, and others extending from central and lateral portions of trans cisternae to form the complex and extensive trans Golgi network. Trans cisternae showed often the peeling-off phenomenon and were continuous with the trans Golgi network. Both, trans cisternae and tubules of the trans Golgi network exhibited regionally buds and vesicles with a lace-like, non clathrin coat, previously reported by others in NRK cells, which contained glycoproteins with terminal N-acetylgalactosamine residues. These buds and vesicle are therefore involved in constitutive exocytosis. Accepted: 12 January 1998  相似文献

Two terminal glycosyltransferases, a sialyltransferase and the blood group A alpha 1,3 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase, were found to exhibit differential subcompartmentation in the Golgi apparatus of intestinal goblet and absorptive cells. As expected from their role in terminal glycosylation, the two glycosyltransferases and their products, sialic acid residues and blood group A substance, were localized in the trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus of goblet cells. In contrast, however, they were found throughout the Golgi apparatus stack of adjacent absorptive cells, with the exception of the fenestrated first cis cisterna. The results are in contrast to the general view that enzymes in the glycosylation pathway are arranged in a cis to trans gradient across the Golgi apparatus and that such polarized distributions may instead be cell type-specific.  相似文献

The O-linked oligosaccharides of mucin-type glycoproteins contain N- acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) that is not found in N-linked glycoproteins. Because Helix pomatia lectin interacts with terminal GalNAc, we used this lectin, bound to particles of colloidal gold, to localize such sugar residues in subcellular compartments of intestinal goblet cells. When thin sections of low temperature Lowicryl K4M embedded duodenum or colon were incubated with Helix pomatia lectin- gold complexes, no labeling could be detected over the cisternal space of the nuclear envelope and the rough endoplasmic reticulum. A uniform labeling was observed over the first and several subsequent cis Golgi cisternae and over the last (duodenal goblet cells) or the two last (colonic goblet cells) trans Golgi cisternae as well as forming and mature mucin droplets. However, essentially no labeling was detected over several cisternae in the central (medial) region of the Golgi apparatus. The results strongly suggest that core O-glycosylation takes place in cis Golgi cisternae but not in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The heterogenous labeling for GalNAc residues in the Golgi apparatus is taken as evidence that termination of certain O- oligosaccharide chains by GalNAc occurs in trans Golgi cisternae.  相似文献

During studies on the Golgi apparatus immunolocalization of beta-galactoside alpha 2,6-sialyltransferase in intestinal cells, immunostaining of a number of post-Golgi apparatus structures including mucus droplets and plasma membrane were observed. In order to determine if this labeling was in fact due to sialyltransferase and not carbohydrate-specific antibodies in the polyclonal antiserum preparation, fusion protein to sialyltransferase was used to epitope purify polypeptide-specific antibodies. The affinity purification was performed on a column containing a beta-galactosidase-sialyltransferase fusion protein expressed in Escherichia coli. Using such antibodies we present evidence that in intestinal cells sialyltransferase is not only present in the Golgi apparatus cisternal stack but also its transtubular network and various post-Golgi apparatus structures. In absorptive enterocytes, post-Golgi apparatus vesicles, the brush border and basolateral plasma membrane, multivesicular bodies, and lysosome-like structures were labeled. In goblet cells the limiting membrane and lumen of forming and mature mucus droplets as well as the plasma membrane exhibited label for sialyltransferase. The results provide evidence for "ecto-sialyltransferase" in the plasma membranes of these cells, and suggest that most of the sialyltransferase is released from the Golgi membranes and becomes secreted with the goblet cell mucus. In addition, the polypeptide epitope-purified antibody was also used to examine regional expression of sialyltransferase in the rat intestinal epithelium. Immunolabel was restricted to the large intestine and not found in duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Direct measurement of the enzyme activity was found to correlate with the immunoelectron microscopic data. This observation suggests that there is regional specific expression of the beta-galactoside alpha 2,6-sialyltransferase.  相似文献

In our studies of the genes constituting the porcine A0 blood group system, we have characterized a cDNA, encoding an alpha(1,3)N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase, that putatively represents the blood group A transferase gene. The cDNA has a 1095-bp open reading frame and shares 76.9% nucleotide and 66.7% amino acid identity with the human ABO gene. Using a somatic cell hybrid panel, the cDNA was assigned to the q arm of pig chromosome 1, in the region of the erythrocyte antigen A locus (EAA), which represents the porcine blood group A transferase gene. The RNA corresponding to our cDNA was expressed in the small intestinal mucosae of pigs possessing EAA activity, whereas expression was absent in animals lacking this blood group antigen. The UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine (UDP-GalNAc) transferase activity of the gene product, expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, was specific for the acceptor fucosyl-alpha(1,2)galactopyranoside; the enzyme did not use phenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (phenyl-beta-D-Gal) as an acceptor. Because the alpha(1,3)GalNAc transferase gene product requires an alpha(1,2)fucosylated acceptor for UDP-GalNAc transferase activity, the alpha(1,2)fucosyltransferase gene product is necessary for the functioning of the alpha(1,3)GalNAc transferase gene product. This mechanism underlies the epistatic effect of the porcine S locus on expression of the blood group A antigen.

Using monoclonal antibodies and electron microscopy, we have localized N-acetylglucosamine transferase I within the Golgi apparatus. This enzyme initiates the conversion of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides to the complex type. We have found that the enzyme is concentrated in the central (or medial) cisternae of the Golgi stack. Cisternae at the cis and trans ends of the Golgi complex appear to lack this protein. These experiments establish a function for the medial portion of the Golgi and imply that the Golgi is partitioned into at least three biochemically and morphologically distinct cisternal compartments.  相似文献

We used immunoelectron microscopy to localize glucosidase II in pig hepatocytes. The enzyme trims the two inner alpha 1,3-linked glucoses from N-linked oligosaccharide precursor chains of glycoproteins. Immunoreactive enzyme was concentrated in rough (RER) and smooth (SER) endoplasmic reticulum but not detectable in Golgi apparatus cisternae. Transitional elements of RER and smooth membraned structures close to Golgi apparatus cisternae contained labeling for glucosidase II. Specific labeling was also found in autophagosomes. These results indicate strongly that glucosidase II acts on glycoproteins before their transport to, and processing in Golgi apparatus cisternae, and suggest that an important transitional region for glucosidase II exists between RER and Golgi apparatus cisternae. Degradation in autophagolysosomes could form a normal catabolic pathway for glucosidase II.  相似文献

Post-embedding immunocytochemistry was employed to investigate the distribution of UDP-galactose:N-acetylglucosamine galactosyltransferase (beta 1,4-GT) in epithelial cells from various bovine organs. Several well characterized monoclonal antibodies previously demonstrated to recognize distinct polypeptide epitopes within the primary structure of beta 1,4-GT were applied to thin sections from tissues embedded in Lowicryl K4M, followed by the protein A-gold technique. Immunoreactivity was observed in the Golgi apparatus of epithelial cells from intestine, thymus and trachea. No immunoreactivity was observed in other intracellular structures, including rough endoplasmic reticulum, nuclear envelope and goblet cell mucus droplets. Within the Golgi apparatus, the staining was restricted to several cisternae in the trans region, with most portions of the trans-Golgi network appearing unlabelled. However, in thymic epithelial-reticular cells trans-Golgi network portions resembling classical GERL elements were stained by the antibodies. Thus, although immunoreactivity was subcompartmentalized within the Golgi apparatus in all epithelial cell types examined, the extent of staining within the trans-Golgi network was variable. Immunoreactivity was not detected at the plasma membrane (ecto-galactosyl-transferase), except in the case of a subpopulation of tracheal cells that resemble brush cells. These results suggest that in the epithelial cells examined, the subcompartmental distribution of beta 1,4-GT within the Golgi apparatus is maintained across different types of epithelial cell organization. Moreover, no evidence for a general epithelial cell ecto-galactosyltransferase could be discerned with these reagents.  相似文献

Human blood group A antigenicity of glycoproteins is retained on epon-embedded jejunum sections after glutaraldehyde fixation and osmium treatment. The intracellular location of molecules bearing these determinants was visualized in the four types of epithelial cells of A+ rabbit jejunum sections with immuno-colloidal gold labeling. The brush border membrane and in particular the glycocalyx of absorbing cells as well as the secretory granules of goblet and Paneth cells were heavily labeled. In enteroendocrine cells, the membrane of secretory granules and not their content was lightly labeled. The differential labeling of secretory or membrane bound glycoproteins is accompanied by different labels of the Golgi complex as expected if labeling of the Golgi saccules was due to the presence of glycoproteins in transit. In all cases the label is primarily concentrated in only half the cisternae on the trans side of the Golgi stacks. In absorbing cells, structures have been revealed in the terminal web that could be related to the brush border membrane and consequently implicated in its biogenesis. The fibrillar material of the glycocalyx appears as highly labeled tangled structures which apparently proceed from densely stained "carrier" vesicles arising from the Golgi apparatus. Vesicles fusing at the lower part of microvilli could result of integration of this material into the lightly labeled vesicles strictly found in the terminal web. These last vesicles could also contain newly synthesized brush border hydrolases.  相似文献

We have determined the subcellular distribution of fucosyl residues in rat duodenal absorptive enterocytes and goblet cells, using the binding affinity of the lectin I of Ulex europaeus (UEA I). In absorptive enterocytes, UEA I-lectin gold complexes were detected at the brush border and at the basolateral plasma membrane; pits of the plasma membrane were labeled, as were small vesicles, multivesicular bodies, lysosomes, and the Golgi apparatus. In the Golgi stacks, about half of the cisternae showed gold marker particles: accessible fucosyl residues were sparse in the cis subcompartment, the cismost cisterna mostly remaining negative; more intense label was found in medial cisternae; reactions were concentrated in the trans and transmost Golgi subcompartments. Cisternae, tubules and vesicles located at the trans Golgi side were the most constantly and intensely stained Golgi elements. In goblet cells, mucin granules and trans Golgi cisternae were labeled. Rarely, UEA I-gold bound to cisternae of the medial subcompartment; the cis subcompartment remained unstained. In part, UEA I-gold particles were restricted to dilated portions of the transmost Golgi cisterna and to secretory granules.  相似文献

The cisternal maturation model proposes that secretory proteins transit the Golgi in cisternae that mature by the continuous retrograde transport of Golgi enzymes in vesicles. We have tested the hypothesis that de novo generation of transport intermediates containing medial, trans, and trans Golgi network (TGN) enzymes is reconstituted in vitro. Our analysis shows that the majority of transport is mediated by a steady state of transport intermediate production and consumption by Golgi cisternae, with only a minor contribution of pre-existing transport intermediates. Transport in the medial and trans regions of the stack involved intermediates containing Golgi enzymes, apparently moving in a retrograde direction. In contrast, transport between the trans Golgi and TGN was exclusively mediated by intermediates containing secretory protein, as expected for anterograde transport. These intermediates may be physiologically relevant, because only these two specific types of intermediates can be detected in cell homogenates. By analogy to the coatomer (COPI)-independent transport of Golgi enzymes to the endoplasmic reticulum, the steady-state production of intra-Golgi transport intermediates was not impaired by inhibition of COPI vesicle formation. These data suggest a model for COPI-independent intra-Golgi transport by cisternal maturation with a shift in mechanism to anterograde transport at the trans Golgi and TGN boundary.  相似文献

Summary The influence of sulphation of mucus glycoproteins in the binding of peanut agglutinin (PNA) to tissue sections has been investigated by means of histochemical techniques at the light- and electron-microscopic level. A sequential methylation-saponification procedure was applied for the desulphation of tissue samples. Labelling by peroxidase- and colloidal gold-conjugated PNA was compared in control and desulphated samples of rat intestinal mucosa. The high-iron-diamine (HID) technique was used as a control for the effectiveness of the desulphation technique, and the Alcian Blue, pH 2.5 (AB 2.5), PAS and phosphotungstic acid-HCl (acid-PTA) techniques served as controls for the integrity of the oligosaccharide chains, respectively. In general, a marked increase of PNA reactivity was observed in desulphated samples when compared with control sections. These findings indicate that sulphation of galactose inhibits the binding of PNA to carbohydrate moieties in tissue sections. Staining patterns obtained with HID, PNA and the desulphation-PNA sequence in the goblet cells of the large intestine suggest a modification of the secretory product stored in these cells as the cell matures and moves from the lower crypt region toward the luminal surface. These modifications were not detected in the small intestine. Ultrastructural detection of PNA-binding sites suggests that galactose residues are incorporated into the oligosaccharide chains of O-liked glycoproteins at the medial cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. However, sulphation occurs at the trans side of the Golgi complex and the trans Golgi network. In conclusion, desulphation procedures are useful for revealing PNA-binding sites.  相似文献

The trans Golgi network (TGN) of plant cells sorts and packages Golgi products into secretory (SV) and clathrin-coated (CCV) vesicles. We have analyzed of TGN cisternae in Arabidopsis root meristem cells by cell fractionation and electron microscopy/tomography to establish reliable criteria for identifying TGN cisternae in plant cells, and to define their functional attributes. Transformation of a trans Golgi cisterna into a Golgi-associated TGN cisterna begins with cisternal peeling, the formation of SV buds outside the plane of the cisterna and a 30-35% reduction in cisternal membrane area. Free TGN compartments are defined as cisternae that have detached from the Golgi to become independent organelles. Golgi-associated and free TGN compartments, but not trans Golgi cisternae, bind anti-RabA4b and anti-phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase (PI-4K) antibodies. RabA4b and PI-4Kβ1 localize to budding SVs in the TGN and to SVs en route to the cell surface. SV and CCV release occurs simultaneously via cisternal fragmentation, which typically yields ~30 vesicles and one to four residual cisternal fragments. Early endosomal markers, VHA-a1-green fluorescent protein (GFP) and SYP61-cyan fluorescent protein (CFP), colocalized with RabA4b in TGN cisternae, suggesting that the secretory and endocytic pathways converge at the TGN. pi4k1/pi4k2 knockout mutant plants produce SVs with highly variable sizes indicating that PI-4Kβ1/2 regulates SV size.  相似文献

Summary In nongrowing secretory cells of plants, large quantities of membrane are transferred from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane without a corresponding increase in cell surface area or accumulation of internal membranes. Movement and/or redistribution of membrane occurs also in trans Golgi apparatus cisternae which disappear after being sloughed from the dictyosome, and in secretory vesicles which lose much of their membrane in transit to the cell surface. These processes have been visualized in freeze-substituted corn rootcap cells and a structural basis for membrane loss during trafficking is seen. It involves three forms of coated membranes associated with the trans parts of the Golgi apparatus, with cisternae and secretory vesicles, and with plasma membranes. The coated regions of the plasma membrane were predominantly located at sites of recent fusion of secretory vesicles suggesting a vesicular mechanism of membrane removal. The two other forms of coated vesicles were associated with the trans cisternae, with secretory vesicles, and with a post Golgi apparatus tubular/vesicular network not unlike the TGN of animal cells. However, the trans Golgi network in plants, unlike that in animals, appears to derive directly from the trans cisternae and then vesiculate. The magnitude of the coated membrane-mediated contribution of the endocytic pathway to the formation of the TGN in rootcap cells is unknown. Continued formation of new Golgi apparatus cisternae would be required to maintain the relatively constant form of the Golgi apparatus and TGN, as is observed during periods of active secretion.  相似文献

RCA I-binding patterns of the Golgi apparatus   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The distribution in the Golgi apparatus of binding sites for the galactose-specific Ricinus communis I lectin (RCA I) was studied in differently specialized cells, including goblet cells and absorptive enterocytes of the rat small intestine as well as acinar cells of the rat embryonic pancreas and submandibular gland. For the purpose of localizing the binding reactions, a pre-embedment method using horseradish peroxidase for electron microscopic visualization, and a post-embedding technique making use of the colloidal gold system were employed. The reactions obtained, localizing cell constituents which contain saccharides with terminal or internal beta-D-galactosyl residues, labeled diverse Golgi subcompartments. The goblet cells showed intense RCA I staining of the cisternae of the trans side of the Golgi stacks. The reaction was weak in the medial cisternae and the cis side of the stacks mostly was devoid of label. In the absorptive cells, in addition to the RCA I reaction of trans Golgi elements, binding sites for this lectin were concentrated in the stacks' medial section. In the embryonic acinar cells, accessible galactosyl residues were either confined to the trans and/or medial cisternae, or distributed across elements of all the stacked saccules. In the latter stacks, the reactions mostly were weak in the cis cisternae and increased in intensity towards the trans side. As regards the respective labeling patterns, similar percentages were calculated for the early and late stages of development: they were approximately 62% for the pattern which showed RCA I label limited to trans/medial cisternae and approximately 38% for the "cis-to-trans"-distributed RCA I reaction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A monoclonal antibody against intestinal mucins (5H7) was obtained and used immunolabel thin frozen sections and Epon-embedded sections of rabbit jejunum. It recognized a mucin oligosaccharide, the synthesis of which increased during goblet cell migration along the crypt-villus axis. During the earliest steps in their differentiation, the goblet cells located at the bottom of crypts synthesized mucins devoid of the 5H7 epitope, thus generating unlabeled granules. These unlabeled granules were gradually replaced by more and more labeled granules during the cell maturation. During goblet cell migration along the middle half of the villi, the mucus granules were found to be totally renewed twice. However, some newly formed labeled granules were observed to reach the apical pole of the cells before older unlabeled ones and might have had a faster turnover. At least one glycoconjugate of the goblet cell microvillar membrane also bore the 5H7 epitope. It was rapidly carried from the Golgi apparatus to the apical plasma membrane domain by a transport process that was independent of baseline mucin secretion.  相似文献

Human hepatoma cells, infected by vesicular stomatitis virus, offer a good system to study simultaneously the intracellular localization of a well defined transmembrane glycoprotein (VSV-G), a secretory glycoprotein (transferrin), and a nonglycosylated secretory protein (albumin). We used monospecific antibodies in combination with 5- and 8- nm colloidal gold particles complexed with protein A to immunolabel these proteins simultaneously in thin frozen sections of hepatoma cells. VSV-G, transferrin, and albumin are present in the same rough endoplasmic reticulum cisternae, the same Golgi compartments, and the same secretory vesicles. In the presence of the ionophore monensin intracellular transport is blocked at the trans cisternae of the Golgi complex, and VSV-G, transferrin, and albumin accumulate in dilated cisternae, which are apparently derived from the trans-Golgi elements. Glycoproteins, synthesized and secreted in the presence of monensin, are less acidic than those in control cultures. This is probably caused by a less efficient contact between the soluble secretory proteins and the membrane-bound glycosyltransferases that are present in the most monensin-affected (trans) Golgi cisternae.  相似文献

Antibodies prepared against enzymatically deglycosylated porcine submaxillary gland mucin (apomucin), which were unreactive with native mucin and its partially deglycosylated derivatives, were used to immunolocalize apomucin in situ. Electron microscopy of sections of Lowicryl K4M-embedded tissue reacted successively with antibodies and protein A-gold complexes showed apomucin exclusively in mucous cells within the rough endoplasmic reticulum, transitional elements of the endoplasmic reticulum, and vesicles at the cis side of the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi apparatus, forming mucous droplets, and mucous droplets contained no apomucin. Although the rough endoplasmic reticulum contained most of the apomucin in mucous cells, some cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear envelope were devoid of apomucin. Examination of tissue sections treated with the glycosidases used to prepare apomucin revealed immunolabel for apomucin throughout the secretory pathway. Colloidal gold coated with Helix pomatia lectin was used to detect nonreducing N-acetylgalactosamine residues. In mucin-producing cells lectin-gold was found in the mucous droplets, the forming mucous droplets, and throughout the Golgi apparatus but mostly in the cis portion of this organelle. In tissue sections reacted successively with lectin-gold and anti-apomucin/protein A-gold, both types of gold complex could be found in the cis side of the Golgi apparatus. These data indicate that the O-glycosylation of mucin is a posttranslational event that occurs in the Golgi apparatus and begins in the cis side of the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

The effects of vinblastine and colchicine on the Golgi apparatus of stomach surface mucoid and absorptive intestinal cells were compared by cytochemical analysis. The two epithelial cells were chosen because of their different specific functions in the formation of secretory granules, the production of lysosomes and the intensity of membrane traffic in the cytoplasm. For the analysis, adult mice were injected with 1 mg/100 g b.w. of vinblastine and 1 mg/100 g b.w. of colchicine. For the demonstration of cis and trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus, prolonged osmification, thiamine pyrophosphatase and acid phosphatase activity identification were applied. After treatment with vinblastine or colchicine, polarity of stacks in the Golgi apparatus of surface mucoid cells is preserved although the number of cisternae with thiamine pyrophosphatase or acid phosphatase activity decreases. However, the Golgi apparatus of intestinal absorptive cells completely disintegrates and only a few separated cis or trans cisternae can be identified. The main effect seems to be a reduction of vesicles which can be cytochemically identified as parts of the Golgi apparatus and an accumulation of vesicles which probably originate from budding ER. Communication between the ER and the Golgi apparatus seems to be interrupted.  相似文献

To delineate the traffic route through the Golgi apparatus followed by newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes, we subfractionated the Golgi apparatus of rat liver by preparative free-flow electrophoresis into cisternae fractions of increasing content of trans face markers and decreasing contents of markers for the cis face. NADPase was used to mark median cisternae. Beta-Hexosaminidase, the high mannose oligosaccharide processing enzyme, alpha-mannosidase II, the two enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the phosphomannosyl recognition marker, and the phosphomannosyl receptor itself decreased in specific activity or amount from cis to trans. Additionally, these activities were observed in a fraction consisting predominantly of cisternae, vesicles and tubules derived from trans-most Golgi apparatus elements. These results, along with preliminary pulse-labeling kinetic data for the phosphomannosyl receptor, suggest that lysosomal enzymes enter the Golgi apparatus at the cis face, are phosphorylated, and appear in trans face vesicles by a route whereby the phosphomannosyl receptor bypasses at least some median and/or trans Golgi apparatus cisternae.  相似文献
