The SEC17 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for vesicular transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. Here we report that the product of the SEC17 gene has the exact biochemical properties expected for a yeast homologue of the mammalian transport factor, alpha-SNAP. The DNA sequence of SEC17 codes for a protein of predicted molecular mass of 33 kDa. Immunoblotting indicates that Sec17p fractionates as a peripheral membrane protein and is mostly soluble when overexpressed, suggesting the presence of a saturable membrane receptor for Sec17p. Sec17p was purified from yeast cytosol using a SNAP-dependent in vitro mammalian Golgi transport assay. Kinetic analysis using this assay shows Sec17p acts temporally close to the fusion of transport vesicles with the medial Golgi compartment. In yeast extracts, Sec17p binds to Sec18p with a 1:1 stoichiometry. The interaction between Sec17p and Sec18p requires an activity provided by yeast membranes, and this putative membrane receptor activity is not extracted by high salt treatment of membranes.  相似文献

We have used an in vitro Golgi protein transport assay dependent on high molecular weight (greater than 100 kD) cytosolic and/or peripheral membrane proteins to study the requirements for transport from the cis- to the medial-compartment. Fractionation of this system indicates that, besides the NEM-sensitive fusion protein (NSF) and the soluble NSF attachment protein (SNAP), at least three high molecular weight protein fractions from bovine liver cytosol are required. The activity from one of these fractions was purified using an assay that included the second and third fractions in a crude state. The result is a protein of 115-kD subunit molecular mass, which we term p115. Immunodepletion of the 115-kD protein from a purified preparation with mAbs removes activity. Peptide sequence analysis of tryptic peptides indicates that p115 is a "novel" protein that has not been described previously. Gel filtration and sedimentation analysis indicate that, in its native state, p115 is a nonglobular homo-oligomer. p115 is present on purified Golgi membranes and can be extracted with high salt concentration or alkaline pH, indicating that it is peripherally associated with the membrane. Indirect immunofluorescence indicates that p115 is associated with the Golgi apparatus in situ.  相似文献

In order for secretion to progress, ER-derived transport vesicles must target to, and fuse with the cis-Golgi compartment. These processes have been reconstituted using highly enriched membrane fractions and partially purified soluble components. The functionally active yeast Golgi membranes that have been purified are highly enriched in the cis- Golgi marker enzymes alpha 1,6 mannosyltransferase and GDPase. Fusion of transport vesicles with these membranes requires both GTP and ATP hydrolysis, and depends on cytosolic and peripheral membrane proteins. At least two protein fractions from yeast cytosol are required for the reconstitution of ER-derived vesicle fusion. Soluble fractions prepared from temperature-sensitive mutants revealed requirements for the Ypt1p, Sec19p, Sly1p, Sec7p, and Uso1 proteins. A model for the sequential involvement of these components in the targeting and fusion reaction is proposed.  相似文献

Proteins bound for the cell surface, lysosomes, and secretory storage granules share a common pathway of intracellular transport. After their synthesis and translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum, these proteins traverse the secretory pathway by a series of vesicular transfers. Similarly, nutrient and signaling molecules enter cells by endocytosis, and move through the endocytic pathway by passage from one membrane-bound compartment to another. Little is known about the mechanisms by which proteins are collected into transport vesicles, or how these vesicles form, identify their targets, and subsequently fuse with their target membranes. An important advance toward our understanding these processes has come from the establishment of cell-free systems that reconstitute vesicular transfers in vitro. It is now possible to measure, in vitro, the transport of proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi, between Golgi cisternae, and the formation of transport vesicles en route from the trans Golgi network to the cell surface. Along the endocytic pathway, cell-free systems are available to study clathrin-coated vesicle formation, early endosome fusion, and the fusion of late endosomes with lysosomes. Moreover, the selective movement of receptors between late endosomes and the trans Golgi network has also been reconstituted. The molecular mechanisms of vesicular transport are now amenable to elucidation.  相似文献

Semi-intact cells, a cell population in which the plasma membrane is perforated to expose intact intracellular organelles (Beckers, C. J. M., Keller, D. S., and Balch, W. E. (1987) Cell 50, 523-534), efficiently reconstitute vesicular trafficking of protein from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cis Golgi compartment. We now extend these studies to biochemically dissect transport of protein between the ER and the Golgi into a series of sequential intermediate steps involved in the budding and fusion of carrier vesicles. At least two broad categories of transport intermediates can be detected, those that involve early steps in transport and those involved in late, fusion-related events. Early transport steps require the transport of protein through a novel intermediate compartment in which protein accumulates at reduced temperature (15 degrees C). We demonstrate that both entry and exit from this 15 degrees C compartment can be successfully reconstituted in vitro. A late step in delivery of protein to the cis Golgi compartment requires Ca2+ (pCa7) and is coincident with a step which is sensitive to a peptide analog which blocks interaction between the Rab family of small GTP-binding proteins and a downstream effector protein(s) (Plutner, H., Schwaninger, R., Pind, S., and Balch, W. E. (1990) EMBO J. 9, 2375-2384). The combined results suggest that a single round of vesicular transport between the ER and the Golgi involves a rapid transit through N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive, guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate-sensitive, ATP- and cytosol-dependent step(s) involved in vesicle formation or transport to a novel intermediate compartment, followed by a regulated fusion event triggered in the presence of Ca2+ and functional components interacting with member(s) of the Rab gene family.  相似文献

Purification of the cardiac Na+-Ca2+ exchange protein   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
We have used fractionation procedures to enrich solubilized cardiac sarcolemma in the Na+-Ca2+ exchange protein. Sarcolemma is extracted with an alkaline medium to remove peripheral proteins and is then solubilized with decylmaltoside. Next, the exchanger is applied to DEAE-Sepharose and eluted with high salt. The DEAE fraction is applied to WGA-agarose, and a small fraction of protein, enriched in the exchanger, can be eluted by changing the detergent to Triton X-100. This fraction is reconstituted into asolectin proteoliposomes for measurement of Na+-Ca2+ exchange activity and gel electrophoresis. The purified fraction has a Na+-Ca2+ exchange activity of 600 nmol Ca2+/mg of protein per s at 10 microM Ca2+ and a purification factor of about 30 as compared with control reconstituted sarcolemmal vesicles. Ca2+-Ca2+ exchange and Na+-Ca2+ exchange activities were both present in the same final reconstituted vesicles indicating that the same protein is responsible for both transport activities. SDS-PAGE reveals two prominent protein bands at 70 and 120 kDa. After mild chymotrypsin treatment (1 microgram/ml), there is no loss of exchange activity, but the 120 kDa band disappears and the 70 kDa band becomes more dense. This suggests that the 70 kDa band is due to an active proteolytic fragment of the 120 kDa protein. Under non-reducing gel conditions, only a single protein band is seen with an apparent molecular weight of 160 kDa. Antibodies to the purified exchanger preparation are able to immunoprecipitate exchange activity and confirm that the 70 kDa protein derives from the 120 kDa protein. We propose that both the 70 and 120 kDa proteins are associated with the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger.  相似文献

This report concerns development of a cell-free system from rat liver to study transport of membrane constituents from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane. Highly purified Golgi apparatus as donor and a mixture of sheets and vesicles as plasma membrane acceptor fractions were combined to analyze requirements for lipid and protein transport. In the reconstituted system, the Golgi apparatus donor was in suspension. To measure transfer, membrane constituents of the donor membranes were radiolabeled with [3H]acetate (lipids) or [3H]leucine (proteins). The plasma membrane vesicles were used as the acceptor and were unlabeled and immobilized on nitrocellulose for ease of recovery and analysis. The reconstituted cell-free transfer was dependent on temperature, but even at 37 degrees C, the amount of transfer did not increase with added ATP, was not specific for any particular membrane fraction or subfraction nor was it facilitated by cytosol. ATP was without effect both in the presence or absence of a cytosolic fraction capable of the support of cell-free transfer in other systems. In contrast to results with ATP, NADH added to the reconstituted system resulted in an increased amount of transfer. A further increase in transfer was obtained with NADH plus a mixture of ascorbate and dehydroascorbate to generate ascorbate free radical. The transfer of labeled membrane constituents from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane supported by NADH plus ascorbate radical was stimulated by a cytosol fraction enriched in less than 10 kDa components. This was without effect in the absence of NADH/ascorbate radical or with ATP as the energy source. Specific transfer was inhibited by both N-ethylmaleimide and GTP gamma S. The findings point to the possibility of redox activities associated with the trans region of the Golgi apparatus as potentially involved in the transport of membrane vesicles from the Golgi apparatus to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane.  相似文献

Terminal steps in the transport of the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (G protein) in the Golgi stack have been reconstituted in a cell-free system. Incorporation of sialic acid into the oligosaccharide chains of G protein was used to monitor transport into the trans Golgi compartment. Transport-coupled sialylation required cytosol, ATP, an N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor extractable from Golgi membranes, and long chain acyl coenzyme A. The G protein receiving sialic acid in the cell-free system begins its in vitro transport bearing galactose residues acquired in vivo. Earlier reports (Balch, W. E., Dunphy, W. G., Braell, W. A., and Rothman, J. E. (1984a) Cell 39, 405-416) documented that transport of G protein into the medial (GlcNAc Transferase-containing) compartment is reconstituted under the same conditions. On the basis of the results reported here, it now appears that a more complete set of transport operations of the Golgi stack may be simultaneously reconstituted.  相似文献

In simple epithelial cells, apical and basolateral proteins and lipids in transit to the cell surface are sorted in the trans-Golgi network. We have recently isolated detergent-insoluble complexes from Madin-Darby canine kidney cells that are enriched in glycosphingolipids, apical cargo and a subset of the proteins of the exocytic carrier vesicles. The vesicular proteins are thought to be involved in protein sorting and include VIP21-caveolin. The vesicular protein VIP36 (36 kDa vesicular integral membrane protein) has been purified from a CHAPS-insoluble residue and a cDNA encoding VIP36 has been isolated. The N-terminal 31 kDa luminal/exoplasmic domain of the encoded protein shows homology to leguminous plant lectins. The transiently expressed protein is localized to the Golgi apparatus, endosomal and vesicular structures and the plasma membrane, as predicted for a protein involved in transport between the Golgi and the cell surface. It is diffusely localized on the plasma membrane but can be redistributed by antibody modulation into caveolae and clathrin-coated pits. We speculate that VIP36 binds to sugar residues of glycosphingolipids and/or glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol anchors and might provide a link between the extracellular/luminal face of glycolipid rafts and the cytoplasmic protein segregation machinery.  相似文献

1. The cytosolic fraction required in in vitro reconstituted intracellular transport of mucus glycoprotein apopeptide (apomucin) was isolated and its potential as transport supporting factor assessed by the quantitation of the gastric apomucin transferred to Golgi. 2. The experiments with the fraction promoting transport and delivery of apomucin to Golgi revealed that the active protein has the property of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) which assists ER vesicles fusion with Golgi. 3. The ability of the 76 kDa PLA2 to hydrolyze phospholipids and to support transport and fusion of ER vesicles with Golgi was abolished by phosphorylation and regained following dephosphorylation. 4. The data provide evidence that 76 kDa intracellular PLA2 is responsible for the fusion of ER-transport vesicles with Golgi. The process of fusion is accomplished by generation of lysophospholipids in fusing membranes.  相似文献

Phosphorylation of secretory and integral membrane proteins and of proteoglycans also occurs in the lumen of the Golgi apparatus. ATP, the phosphate donor in these reactions, must first cross the Golgi membrane before it can serve as substrate. The existence of a specific ATP transporter in the Golgi membrane has been previously demonstrated in vitro using intact Golgi membrane vesicles from rat liver and mammary gland. We have now identified and purified the rat liver Golgi membrane ATP transporter. The transporter was purified to apparent homogeneity by a combination of conventional ion exchange, dye color, and affinity chromatography. An approximately 70,000-fold purification (2% yield) was achieved starting from crude rat liver Golgi membranes. A protein with an apparent molecular mass of 60 kDa was identified as the putative transporter by a combination of column chromatography, photoaffinity labeling with an analog of ATP, and native functional size determination on a glycerol gradient. The purified transporter appears to exist as a homodimer within the Golgi membrane, and when reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine liposomes, was active in ATP but not nucleotide sugar or adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate transport. The transport activity was saturable with an apparent Km very similar to that of intact Golgi vesicles.  相似文献

SNARE proteins control intracellular membrane fusion through formation of membrane-bridging helix bundles of amphipathic SNARE motifs. Repetitive cycles of membrane fusion likely involve repetitive folding/unfolding of the SNARE motif helical structure. Despite these conformational demands, little is known about conformational regulation of SNAREs by other proteins. Here we demonstrate that hsc70 chaperones stimulate in vitro SNARE complex formation among the ER/Golgi SNAREs syntaxin 5, membrin, rbetl and sec22b, under conditions in which assembly is normally inhibited. Thus, molecular chaperones can render the SNARE motif more competent for assembly. Partially purified hsc70 fractions from brain cytosol had higher specific activities than fully purified hsc70, suggesting the involvement of unidentified cofactors. Using chemical crosslinking of cells followed by immunoprecipitation, we found that hsc70 was associated with ER/Golgi SNAREs in vivo. Consistent with a modulatory role for hsc70 in transport, we found that excess hsc70 specifically inhibited ER-to-Golgi transport in permeabilized cells.  相似文献

Three new and likely related components of the cellular fusion machinery have been purified from bovine brain cytosol, termed alpha-SNAP (35 kd), beta-SNAP (36 kd), and gamma-SNAP (39 kd). Transport between cisternae of the Golgi complex measured in vitro requires SNAP activity during the membrane fusion stage, and each SNAP is capable of binding the general cellular fusion protein NSF to Golgi membranes. The SNAP-NSF-membrane complex may be an early stage in the assembly of a proposed multisubunit "fusion machine" on the target membrane. SNAP transport factor activity is also found in yeast. Yeast cytosol prepared from a secretion mutant defective in export from the endoplasmic reticulum (sec17) lacks SNAP activity, which can be restored in vitro by the addition of pure alpha-SNAP, but not beta- or gamma-SNAPs. These data suggest that the mechanism of action of SNAPs in membrane fusion is conserved in evolution.  相似文献

Fusion of endosomes appears to be required at early steps of receptor-mediated endocytosis. These fusion events have been reconstituted using a cell-free assay and have been shown to require both cytosolic and membrane-associated proteins. We report here that trypsinization of endosomes completely inhibited fusion. Addition of untreated cytosol cannot restore fusion of trypsinized endosomes. However, fusion activity is restored by the addition of either untreated vesicles or a high salt extract containing peripheral membrane proteins (KE). KE contains both the membrane-associated factor(s) required for the reconstitution of fusion using trypsinized endosomes and the factors that are normally provided by the cytosol. The restorative activity of KE was sensitive to trypsin treatment or incubation at 100 degrees C, but was largely N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-resistant. This and other criteria demonstrated that the trypsin-sensitive factor is distinct from N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF), an NEM-sensitive protein involved in vesicular fusion, and from other known factors that may participate in membrane fusion events. Preliminary fractionation studies indicate that the restorative activity of KE is associated with one or more high molecular weight proteins. The present study indicates that a novel trypsin-sensitive protein(s) is involved in endosome-endosome fusion. This factor is membrane-associated and is not found in an active form in cytosol as prepared.  相似文献

Glycosylation of glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycolipids occurring in the Golgi apparatus requires the translocation of nucleotide sugars from the cytosol into the lumen of the Golgi. Translocation is mediated by specific nucleotide sugar transporters, integral Golgi membrane proteins that regulate the above glycosylation reactions. A defect in GDP-fucose transport into the lumen of the Golgi apparatus has been recently identified in a patient affected by leukocyte adhesion deficiency type II syndrome (Lubke, T., Marquardt, T., von Figura, K., and Korner, C. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 25986-25989). We have now identified and purified the rat liver Golgi membrane GDP-fucose transporter, a protein with an apparent molecular mass of 39 kDa, by a combination of column chromatography, native functional size determination on a glycerol gradient, and photoaffinity labeling with 8-azidoguanosine-5'-[alpha-(32)P] triphosphate, an analog of GDP-fucose. The purified transporter appears to exist as a homodimer within the Golgi membrane. When reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine liposomes, it was active in GDP-fucose transport and was specifically photolabeled with 8-azidoguanosine-5'-[alpha-(32)P]triphosphate. Transport was also stimulated 2-3-fold after preloading proteoliposomes with GMP, the putative antiporter.  相似文献

The glycoside digitonin was used to selectively permeabilize the plasma membrane exposing functionally and morphologically intact ER and Golgi compartments. Permeabilized cells efficiently transported vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) through sealed, membrane-bound compartments in an ATP and cytosol dependent fashion. Transport was vectorial. VSV-G protein was first transported to punctate structures which colocalized with p58 (a putative marker for peripheral punctate pre-Golgi intermediates and the cis-Golgi network) before delivery to the medial Golgi compartments containing alpha-1,2-mannosidase II and processing of VSV-G to endoglycosidase H resistant forms. Exit from the ER was inhibited by an antibody recognizing the carboxyl-terminus of VSV-G. In contrast, VSV-G protein colocalized with p58 in the absence of Ca2+ or the presence of an antibody which inhibits the transport component NSF (SEC18). These studies demonstrate that digitonin permeabilized cells can be used to efficiently reconstitute the early secretory pathway in vitro, allowing a direct comparison of the morphological and biochemical events involved in vesicular tafficking, and identifying a key role for the p58 containing compartment in ER to Golgi transport.  相似文献

Rab proteins represent a large family of ras-like GTPases that regulate distinct vesicular transport events at the level of membrane targeting and/or fusion. We report here the primary sequence, subcellular localization and functional activity of a new member of the rab protein family, rab9. The majority of rab9 appears to be located on the surface of late endosomes. Rab9, purified from Escherichia coli strains expressing this protein, could be prenylated in vitro in the presence of cytosolic proteins and geranylgeranyl diphosphate. In vitro-prenylated rab9 protein, but not C-terminally truncated rab9, stimulated the transport of mannose 6-phosphate receptors from late endosomes to the trans Golgi network in a cell-free system that reconstitutes this transport step. Rab7, a related rab protein that is also localized to late endosomes, was inactive in the in vitro transport assay, despite its efficient prenylation and capacity to bind and hydrolyze GTP. These results strongly suggest that rab9 functions in the transport of mannose 6-phosphate receptors between late endosomes and the trans Golgi network. Moreover, our results confirm the observation that a given organelle may bear multiple rab proteins with different biological functions.  相似文献

The vectorial transport of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) G protein between the ER and the cis and medial Golgi compartments has been reconstituted using semi-intact (perforated) cells. The transport of VSV-G protein between successive compartments is measured by the sequential processing of the two N-linked oligosaccharide chains present on VSV-G protein to the endoglycosidase (endo) H-resistant structures which have unique electrophoretic mobilities during sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. The appearance of a form of VSV-G which contains only one endo H-resistant oligosaccharide chain (GH1) is kinetically and biochemically indistinguishable from the appearance of the Man5, endo D-sensitive form (GD), the latter being a processing reaction diagnostic of transport from the ER to the cis Golgi compartment. These results provide evidence that the cis Golgi compartment may contain in addition to alpha-1,2-mannosidase I, both N-acetylglueosamine transferase I and alpha-1,2-mannosidase II. VSV-G protein is subsequently processed to the form which contains two endo H-resistant oligosaccharides (GH2) after a second wave of vesicular transport. Processing of GH1 to GH2 in vitro occurs only after a lag period following the appearance of GH1; processing is sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide, guanosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), and a synthetic peptide homologous to the rab1 protein effector domain, and processing is inhibited in the absence of free Ca2+ (in the presence of EGTA), reagents which potently inhibit ER to cis Golgi transport. These results suggest that VSV-G protein proceeds through at least two rounds of vesicular transport from the ER to the medial Golgi compartment for processing to the GH2 form, providing a model system to study the regulation of the vectorial membrane fission and fusion events involved in vesicular trafficking and organelle dynamics in the early stages of the secretory pathway.  相似文献

The molecular mechanism of membrane fusion essential to vital cellular activities such as intracellular transport, hormone secretion, enzyme release, or neurotransmission, involve the assembly and disassembly of a specialized set of proteins in opposing bilayers. Recent evidences shed new light on the role Ca(2+) has in the regulation of this mechanism in which the Golgi apparatus works as a central station; from here, Ca(2+) ions are released into and recovered from the cytosol during the different steps of the cargo progression. In fact, transient cytosolic Ca(2+) fluctuations take a crucial role to recruit proteins and enzymes Ca(2+)-sensitive on Golgi membranes where they are involved in membranes remodelling which is fundamental process for the fusion events that allow protein trafficking. Here I provide an overview of the role Ca(2+) plays in intra-Golgi trafficking underlying some interesting aspects to clarify the mechanisms of cargo progression.  相似文献

Transport of a glycoprotein between compartments of the Golgi has been reconstituted in an in vitro system (Balch, W. E., Dunphy, W. G., Braell, W. A., and Rothman, J. E. (1984) Cell 39, 405-416). Cytosolic components and ATP are absolutely required for transport. Here, we have tested the acceptor activity of Golgi fractions and of cytosolic fractions prepared from a variety of organisms. All mammalian Golgi fractions can act as "acceptor" in the in vitro assay. Similarly, the cytosol fractions obtained from plants as well as animals and a lower eukaryote substitute for the homologous CHO cytosol normally used. Moreover, a cytosol subfraction prepared from wheat germ complements a different cytosolic fraction obtained from bovine brain. Apparently, the essential components involved in the post-translational protein transport are remarkably conserved between plants, animals, and lower eukaryotes.  相似文献
