Vacuoles are ubiquitous organelles in the fungal and plant kingdoms. They serve a variety of functions and are important for cell homeostasis. A constant turnover of proteins and membranes makes vacuoles dynamic organelles. Various transport pathways share the vacuole as their joint destination. The trafficking pathways are regulated independently. In yeast cells many components of the protein and membrane transport machinery are known. Recent years have seen much progress in our understanding of the protein-sorting pathways and the biogenesis of this organelle. Improvements of our understanding of the vesicular transport pathways and vacuolar membrane fusion are reviewed. 相似文献

Membrane fusion is the last step in trafficking pathways during which membrane vesicles fuse with target organelles to deliver cargos. It is a central cellular reaction that plays important roles in signal transduction, protein sorting and subcellular compartmentation. Recent progress in understanding the roles of ion transporters in vacuole fusion in yeast is summarized in this article. It is becoming increasingly evident that the vacuolar proton pump V-ATPase and vacuolar Na+/H+ antiporter ScNhx1p are key components of the vacuole fusion machinery in yeast. Yeast ScNhx1p regulates vacuole fusion by controlling the luminal pH. V-ATPases serve a dual role in vacuolar integrity in which they regulate both vacuole fusion and fission reactions in yeast. Fission defects are epistatic to fusion defects. Vacuole fission depends on the proton translocation activity of the V-ATPase; by contrast, the fusion reaction does not need the transport activity but requires the physical presence of the proton pump. V0, the membrane-integral sector of the V-ATPase, forms trans-complexes between the opposing vacuoles in the terminal phase of vacuole fusion where the V0trans-complexes build a continuous proteolipid channel at the fusion site to mediate the bilayer fusion. 相似文献

The ins and outs of E-cadherin trafficking 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
One way of controlling the activity of E-cadherin--a protein that is, simultaneously, a major cell-adhesion molecule, a powerful tumour suppressor, a determinant of cell polarity and a partner to the potent catenin signalling molecules--is to keep it on the move. During the past two decades, many insights into the fundamental role of E-cadherin in these processes have been garnered. Studies during the past five years have begun to reveal the importance of intracellular trafficking as a means of regulating the functions of E-cadherin. E-cadherin is trafficked to and from the cell surface by exocytic and multiple endocytic pathways. In this article, we survey the vesicle-trafficking machinery that is responsible for the sorting, transport, actin association and vesicle targeting of E-cadherin to regulate its movement and function during growth and development and, possibly, in cancer. 相似文献

Summary The vacuole is often termed the lytic compartment of the plant cell. The yeast cell also possesses a vacuole containing acid hydrolases. In animal cells these enzymes are localized in the lysosome. Recent research suggests that there is good reason to regard these organelles as homologous in terms of protein transport. Although sorting motifs for the recognition of vacuolar proteins within the endomembrane system differ between the three organelles, there is an underlying similarity in targeting determinants in the cytoplasmic tails of Golgi-based receptors. In all three cases these determinants appear to interact with adaptins of clathrin-coated vesicles which ferry their cargo first of all to an endosomal compartment. The situation in sorting and targeting of plant vacuolar proteins is complicated by the fact that storage and lytic vacuoles may exist together in the same cell. The origin of these two types of vacuole is also a matter of some uncertanity.Abbrevations AP

Ubiquitination is a versatile tool used by all eukaryotic organisms for controlling the stability, function, and intracellular localization of a wide variety of proteins. Two of the best characterized functions of protein ubiquitination are to mark proteins for degradation by cytosolic proteasome and to promote the internalization of certain plasma membrane proteins via the endocytotic pathway, followed by their degradation in the vacuole. Recent studies of membrane proteins both in yeast and mammalian cells suggest that the role of ubiquitin may extend beyond its function as an internalization signal in that it also may be required for modification of some component(s) of the endocytotic machinery, and for cargo protein sorting at the late endosome and the Golgi apparatus level. In this review, I will attempt to bring together what is currently known about the role of ubiquitination in controlling protein trafficking between the yeast plasma membrane, the trans-Golgi network, and the vacuole/lysosome. 相似文献

The past few years have seen publication of reports from several groups documenting the escape of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) from its intracellular vacuole to access the cytosol. The major questions addressed in these publications are the mechanism(s) underlying this process, the frequency of its occurrence and, most importantly, the biological significance of this phenomenon to bacterial survival, growth and virulence. I believe that the first two questions are moving towards resolution, but questions relating to biological context have yet to be answered fully. In this viewpoint article, I will try to convince the readers why escape from the vacuole in no way diminishes the significance of Mtb's intravacuolar survival mechanisms and why, as a lab, we continue to focus the majority of our efforts on the ‘bug in the bag’. 相似文献

Aggrecan is a large and highly complex macromolecule, uniquely structured to fill space in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of cartilage. Lethal chondrodystrophies resulting from mutations in the structural gene for aggrecan demonstrate the serious consequences of the absence of aggrecan. Other chondrodystrophies are testimony to the importance of post-translational modifications.
Here, Barbara Vertel reviews the role of aggrecan in the ECM of cartilage, discusses genetic mutations affecting aggrecan and highlights intracellular features of its synthesis and processing. 相似文献

De novo nucleosome assembly coupled to DNA replication and repair in vitro involves the histone chaperone chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1). Recent studies support a model in which CAF-1 can be targeted to newly synthesized DNA through a direct interaction with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and can act synergistically with a newly identified histone chaperone. Insights have also been obtained into mechanisms by which this CAF-1-dependent pathway can establish a repressed chromatin state. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects almost the entire adult population of the world. The success of this virus appears to be based on its ability to infect the B cell, rather than any other cell type. We review EBV B-cell tropism, and discuss the mechanisms by which the virus may gain access to, and egress from, B cells in the normal host. 相似文献

During oogenesis the oocyte is arrested in meiosis twice. First at prophase I, then a second time at metaphase I in many invertebrates and in metaphase II in the vast majority of vertebrates. Meiosis resumption is triggered by the sperm. This article examines mechanisms that cause oocytes' arrest in meiosis and how spermatozoa help the oocyte to get out of this cellular predicament. J.

In this issue of Developmental Cell, Nodine and colleagues show that two related leucine-rich repeat receptor kinases, RECEPTOR-LIKE PROTEIN KINASE1 and TOADSTOOL2, are critical in establishing radial pattern in the Arabidopsis embryo (Nodine et al., 2007). Embryos lacking these kinases show replacement of outer cell fates with inner cell fates. 相似文献

The ins and outs of sphingolipid synthesis 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of eukaryotic cell membranes, where they play important roles in intracellular signaling and in membrane structure. Even though the biochemical pathway of sphingolipid synthesis and its compartmentalization between the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus have been known for many years, the molecular identity of the enzymes in this pathway has only recently been elucidated. Here, we summarize progress in the identification and characterization of the enzymes, the transport of ceramide from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus, and discuss how regulating the synthesis of sphingolipids might impact upon their functions. 相似文献
