Summary The sequence of the synthesis and transport of the organic matrix of spicules has been elucidated in the gorgonian Leptogorgia virgulata by use of 3H-aspartic acid as the tracer in electron-microscopic autoradiography. The entire process of matrix synthesis and transport takes approximately 2 h. It seems that the protein moiety of the organic matrix is synthesized in the RER prior to 5 min following the initial 10 min incubation in the tracer. At the 5 min chase the label is moving from the RER to the Golgi complexes where the carbohydrate moiety of the matrix is presumed to be synthesized. At the 5 to 15 min chases the label is transported out of the Golgi complexes via Golgi vesicles. This phase continues for 30 min. From 60 to 120 min the 3H-aspartic acid moves to the spicules. After 120 min the majority of the label has moved into the spicules. Silver grain counts over both multivesicular and electron-dense bodies remain at relatively low and constant levels over 4 h indicating that neither organelle is involved in the synthesis and transport of the organic matrix.Contribution No 512; Belle W.

Frog exocrine pancreatic tissue was studied in vitro under conditions which maintain the differences between tissues from fasted and fed animals. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis after labeling with [14C]amino acids showed that feeding stimulated the synthesis of secretory proteins to the same relative degree as the overall protein synthesis. The intracellular transport of secretory proteins was studied by electronmicroscopy autoradiography after pulse-labeling with [3H]leucine. It was found that the transport route is similar under both feeding conditions. After their synthesis in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), the proteins move through the peripheral elements and cisternae of the Golgi system into the condensing vacuoles. The velocity of the transport increases considerably after feeding. When frogs are fasted, the release of labeled proteins from the RER takes greater than 90 min, whereas after feeding, this happens within 30 min. Comparable differences were observed for transport through the Golgi system. The apparent differences between the frog and mammalian pancreas in the regulation of synthesis, intracellular transport, and secretion of proteins are discussed. 相似文献

To investigate the role of cytoplasmic sequences in directing transmembrane protein trafficking through the Golgi, we analyzed the sorting of VSV tsO45 G fusions with either the native G cytoplasmic domain (G) or an alternative cytoplasmic tail derived from the chicken AE1‐4 anion exchanger (GAE). At restrictive temperature GAE and G accumulated in the ER, and upon shifting the cells to permissive temperature both proteins folded and underwent transport through the Golgi. However, GAE and G did not form hetero‐oligomers upon the shift to permissive temperature and they progressed through the Golgi with distinct kinetics. In addition, the transport of G through the proximal Golgi was Arf1 and COPI‐dependent, while GAE progression through the proximal Golgi was Arf1 and COPI‐independent. Although Arf1 did not regulate the sorting of GAE in the cis‐Golgi, Arf1 did regulate the exit of GAE from the TGN. The trafficking of GAE through the Golgi was similar to that of the native AE1‐4 anion exchanger, in that the progression of both proteins through the proximal Golgi was Arf1‐independent, while both required Arf1 to exit the TGN. We propose that the differential recognition of cytosolic signals in membrane‐spanning proteins by the Arf1‐dependent sorting machinery may influence the rate at which cargo progresses through the Golgi. 相似文献

The biochemical profile and metabolism of Acyrthosiphon pisum(Harris) (Homoptera, Aphididae) are markedly altered and redirected in response to parasitization by the endophagous braconid Aphidius erviHaliday (Hymenoptera, Braconidae). In the present study, the role played in the host regulation process by teratocytes, cells deriving from the dissociation of the embryonic membrane of the parasitoid, is taken into consideration. The protein synthesis activity of these cells of embryonic origin is analysed in vitroand an essential characterization of those proteins de novosynthesized and released in the incubation medium is provided. Teratocytes, obtained by dissecting parasitized host aphids, 3, 4 and 5 days after parasitoid oviposition, were incubated in vitroand, at the end of the incubation period, were separated from the medium for SDS-PAGE analysis of both cellular and secreted proteins. Various cellular proteins were more abundant as the time between parasitization and teratocyte collection increased. Furthermore, two proteins, showing an approximate molecular mass of 15 kD (p15) and 45 kD (p45) respectively, were abundantly secreted in the incubation medium by 5 day-old teratocytes. Incubations in presence of 35S radiolabelled amino acids indicated that p15 and p45 are both synthesized by A. erviteratocytes. The amino acid composition of these two proteins was similar to that reported for other insect proteins with a demonstrated nutritional function. The p45 protein was found to be glycosylated. A tentative physiological model describing the host regulation role played by different parasitoid-derived factors is proposed. 相似文献

The secretory pathway delivers proteins synthesized at the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) to various subcellular locations via the Golgi apparatus. Currently, efforts are focused on understanding the molecular machineries driving individual processes at the RER and Golgi that package, modify and transport proteins. However, studies are routinely performed using non‐dividing cells. This obscures the critical issue of how the secretory pathway is affected by cell division. Indeed, several studies have indicated that protein trafficking is down‐regulated during mitosis. Moreover, the RER and Golgi apparatus exhibit gross reorganization in mitosis. Here I provide a relatively neglected perspective of how the mitotic cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK1) could regulate various stages of the secretory pathway. I highlight several aspects of the mitotic control of protein trafficking that remain unresolved and suggest that further studies on how the mitotic CDK1 influences the secretory pathway are necessary to obtain a deeper understanding of protein transport. 相似文献

Summary The modified protein A-gold immunocytochemical technique was applied to the localization of amylase in rat pancreatic acinar cells. Due to the good ultrastructural preservation of the cellular organelles obtained on glutaraldehyde-fixed, osmium tetroxide-postfixed tissue, the labelling was detected with high resolution over the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), the Golgi apparatus, the condensing vacuoles, the immature pre-zymogen granules, and the mature zymogen granules. Over the Golgi area, the labelling was present over the transitional elements of the endoplasmic reticulum, some of the smooth vesicular structures at thecis- andtrans-faces and all the different Golgi cisternae. The acid phosphatase-positive rigidtrans-cisternae as well as the coated vesicles were either negative or weakly labelled. Quantitative evaluations of the degree of labelling demonstrated an increasing intensity which progresses from the RER, through the Golgi, to the zymogen granules and have identified the sites where protein concentration occurs. The results obtained have thus demonstrated that amylase is processed through the conventional RER-Golgi-granule secretory pathway in the pancreatic acinar cells. In addition a concomitance has been found between some sites where protein concentration occurs: thetrans-most Golgi cisternae, the condensing vacuoles, the pre- and the mature zymogen granules, and the presence of actin at the level of the limiting membranes of these same organelles as reported previously (Bendayan, 1983). This suggests that beside their possible role in transport and release of secretory products, contractile proteins may also be involved in the process of protein concentration. 相似文献

Summary The synthetic pathways of proteins and catecholamines in the rat adrenal medullary cells were compared systematically at the ultrastructural level, within a 24 h period, with 2 tracers, L-tyrosine 3,5-3H and L-3,4-dihydroxy [ring 2,5,6-3H] phenylalanine (L-dopa3H). Young rats were injected with either of these tracers and sacrificed in pairs at close time intervals. With L-tyrosine 3H, the label was about equal over rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and secretory granules at 2 min after injection and remained almost constant in intensity over the secretory granules throughout the period of observation. A peak of radioactivity was also observed in the Golgi complex between 5 and 20 min after injection. This indicates that L-tyrosine 3H participates in the synthesis of both granule proteins and catecholamines as confirmed by the results obtained after injection of L-dopa 3H. With this tracer, radioactivity over RER, Golgi complex, cytosol and cell surface remained very low at all times and was undetectable at several time intervals. In contrast, radioactivity over secretory granules was very high at all time intervals. The present results thus confirm that in both adrenaline- and noradrenaline-storing cells, the protein moiety of chromaffin granules is synthetized in the RER, packaged in the Golgi complex and rapidly found in newly formed secretory granules. Following either L-tyrosine 3H or L-dopa 3H injection, catecholamine synthesis occurs only in or in close vicinity to chromaffin granules in both cell types at all time intervals.

Abstract: The relation between the availability of newly synthesized protein and lipid and the axonal transport of optically detectable organelles was examined in peripheral nerve preparations of amphibia (Rana catesbeiana and Xenopus laevis) in which intracellular traffic from the endo-plasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex was inhibited with brefeldin A (BFA). Accumulation of fast-transported radio-labeled protein or phospholipid proximal to a sciatic nerve ligature was monitored in vitro in preparations of dorsal root ganglia and sciatic nerve. Organelle transport was examined by computer-enhanced video microscopy of single myelinated axons. BFA reduced the amount of radiolabeled protein and lipid entering the fast-transport system of the axon without affecting either the synthesis or the transport rate of these molecules. The time course of the effect of BFA on axonal transport is consistent with an action at an early step in the intrasomal pathway, and with its action being related to the observed rapid (<1 h) disassembly of the Golgi complex. At a concentration of BFA that reduced fast-transported protein by >95%, no effect was observed on the flux or velocity of anterograde or retrograde organelle transport in axons for at least 20 h. Bidirectional axonal transport of organelles was similarly unaffected following suppression of protein synthesis by >99%. The findings suggest that the anterograde flux of transport organelles is not critically dependent on a supply of newly synthesized membrane precursors. The possibilities are considered that anterograde organelles normally arise from membrane components supplied from a post-Golgi storage pool, as well as from recycled retrograde organelles. 相似文献

The flagella of the green alga Scherffelia dubia are covered by scales which consist of acidic polysaccharides and glycoproteins. Experimental deflagellation results in the
regeneration of flagella complete with scales. During flagellar regeneration, scales are newly synthesized in the Golgi apparatus,
exocytosed and deposited on the growing flagella. Flagellar regeneration is dependent upon protein synthesis and N-glycosylation,
as it is blocked by cycloheximide and partially inhibited by tunicamycin. Metabolic labeling with [35S]methionine/cysteine demonstrated that scale-associated proteins were not newly synthesized during flagellar regeneration,
suggesting that the proteins deposited on regenerating flagella were drawn from a pool. Quantitative immunoelectron microscopy
using a monospecific antibody directed against a scale-associated protein of 126 kDa (SAP126) revealed that the pool of SAP126
was primarily located at the plasma membrane, with minor labeling of the scale reticulum and trans-Golgi cisternae, both before deflagellation and during flagellar regeneration. Since SAP126 was sequestered during flagellar
regeneration into secretory vesicles together with newly synthesized scales, it is concluded that the persistent presence
of SAP126 in the trans-Golgi cisternae during scale biogenesis requires retrograde transport of the protein from the plasma membrane to the Golgi
apparatus.

Summary Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been used to analyse patterns of proteins synthesized in the eggs from theBombyx mutantpnd, whose homozygous embryo never enters diapause owing to a genetic defect. At the middle to late stage of gastrulation the
diapause type of the heterozygous embryo, derived from a homozygouspnd female mated to a wild-type male, synthesizes eight proteins which are not detected in the homozygouspnd embryo. To examine the relationship between embryonic diapause and the appearance of the heterozygote-specific proteins,
the pattern of proteins synthesized in the heterozygotes of the diapause type was compared with that in heterozygotes which
were artificially altered so that they would continue development. Only one of the eight heterozygote-specific proteins was
constitutively synthesized according to the embryonic genome, irrespective of their developmental state, whereas appearance
of the remaining seven proteins was exclusively dependent on their developmental nature. This finding strongly suggests that
the unique protein might result from the expression of thepnd
+ gene, and the other proteins might be synthesized along with diapause initiation in the heterozygotes. The possible role
of the putativepnd
+ gene-specific protein at the onset of embryonic diapause is discussed in relation to the action of the diapause factor, which
predetermines embryonic diapause by affecting the developing oocytes. 相似文献

Testes and paragonial glands of Drosophila melanogaster wild-type males were labeled in vitro using [35S]methionine, and the proteins synthesized were analyzed by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Testes and paragonial glands were also labeled in vivo by feeding male larvae 35S-labeled yeast and then dissecting the adult males. Approximately 1200 proteins were resolved by autoradiography of the gels. The in vitro method was shown to be more sensitive and to allow faithful synthesis of all proteins produced in vivo. [3H]Proline was also used to label testes, and no significant differences from the 35S pattern were noted. Testes and paragonial glands from XO and XYY males were labeled in vitro with [35S]methionine, and the proteins synthesized were compared to those produced by wild-type males of identical autosomal background. No differences attributable to the Y chromosome could be detected in the testes or paragonial gland samples. Pure sperm were dissected manually from in vivo labeled males and the proteins analyzed. Ninety-two proteins were detected, which were all synthesized in comparable amounts by XO, XY, and XYY males, showing that the Y chromosome does not code for any of these structural sperm proteins. It is postulated that no Y chromosome products were detected because they are organizational or regulatory proteins present only in very small amounts in the adult testes. 35S-labeled males were also mated to unlabeled females and the transferred proteins analyzed on two-dimensional PAGE. The contributions of the testis and paragonial gland to the ejaculate were determined.This work was supported by a grant from the Medical Research Council of Canada and by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (Grant No. GM-22753).

The subcellular sites of synthesis and route of intracellular transfer of immunoglobulin G (IgG) have been investigated by electron microscope radioautography with precursors used for the polypeptide chain (leucine-3H) and for the carbohydrate moieties (galactose-3H and glucosamine-3H). For this purpose, plasma cells from a mouse myeloma tumor were labeled with appropriate precursors and the distribution of radioautographic grains was determined at the end of the labeling period and after varying times of incubation in unlabeled medium. The results indicated that the polypeptide backbone is synthesized in a region of the cell occupied by the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and is transported from there to the region of the Golgi complex. Galactose is incorporated in IgG primarily at the level of the Golgi complex, whereas the incorporation of glucosamine appears to take place both in the RER and in the Golgi complex. From the Golgi complex, the completed IgG molecules reach the plasma membrane and are discharged extracellularly. The latter route of transport and the mechanism of discharge are not understood but may be mediated via smooth-surfaced vesicles. 相似文献

The transfer of newly synthesized membrane proteins moving from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) to the Golgi complex has been studied by electron microscopy in HEp-2 cells transfected with cDNAs for chimeric proteins. These proteins consist of a reporter enzyme, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), anchored to the transmembrane domains of two integral membrane proteins, the transferrin receptor and sialyl- transferase. The chimeras are distributed throughout the nuclear envelope, RER, vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs) and a network of tubules in the cis-Golgi area. At 20 degrees C tubules containing chimera connect the RER to the VTCs and to the cis-Golgi network. On transfer to 37 degrees C in the presence of dithiothreitol (DTT), the chimeras are seen to move from the RER and through the Golgi stack. With this temperature shift the direct connections with the RER are lost and free vesicles form; some of these vesicles contain HRP reaction product which is much more concentrated than in the adjacent RER while others lack reaction product entirely. In cells expressing SSHRPKDEL, DAB reaction product remains distributed throughout the RER, the VTCs, and the cis-Golgi network for prolonged periods in the presence of DTT and almost all of the vesicles which form at 37 degrees C are DAB-positive. Together these observations demonstrate that all three chimeras are transported from the RER to the cis-Golgi in free, 40-60-nm vesicles at 37 degrees C. They also suggest that the retrograde traffic which carries SSHRPKDEL back to the RER is probably mediated by vesicles with a similar morphology but which, in cells expressing membrane-anchored chimeras, lack detectable reaction product. 相似文献

The synthesis, transport and localization of a nuclear coded 22-kd heat-shock protein (HSP) in the chloroplast membranes was studied in pea plants and Chlamydomonas reinhardi. HSPs were detected in both systems by in vivo labeling and in vitro translation of poly(A)+RNA, using the wheat-germ and reticulocyte lysate systems. Heat-shock treatment of pea plants for 2 h at 42-45°C induces the expression of ˜10 nuclear coded proteins, among which several (18 kd, 19 kd, 22 kd) are predominant. A 22-kd protein is synthesized as a 26-kd precursor protein and is localized in a chloroplast membrane fraction in vivo. Following post-translational transport into intact chloroplasts in vitro of the 26-kd precursor, the protein is processed but the resulting 22-kd mature protein is localized in the chloroplast stroma. If, however, the in vitro transport is carried out with chloroplasts from heat-shocked plants, the 22-kd protein is preferentially transported to the chloroplast membrane fraction. In C. reinhardi the synthesis of poly(A)+RNAs coding for several HSPs is progressively and sequentially induced when raising the temperature for 1.5 h from 36°C to 42°C, while that of several preexisting RNAs is reduced. Various pre-existing poly(A)+RNAs endure in the cells at 42°C up to 5 h but are no longer translated in vivo, whereas some poly(A)−RNAs persist and are translated. As in pea, a poly(A)+RNA coded 22-kd HSP is localized in the chloroplast membranes in vivo, although it is translated as a 22-kd protein in vitro. The in vitro translated protein is not transported in isolated pea chloroplast which, however, processes and transports other nuclear coded chloroplast proteins of Chlamydomonas. The poly(A)+RNA coding for the 22-kd HSP appears after 1 h at 36°C. Its synthesis increases with the temperature of incubation up to 42°C, although it decreases after ˜2 h of heat treatment and the already synthesized RNA is rapidly degraded. The degradation is faster upon return of the cells to 26°C. None of the heat-induced proteins is identical to the light-inducible proteins of the chloroplast membranes. 相似文献

Arabidopsis proteins were predicted which share an 80 residue zinc finger domain known from ADP-ribosylation factor GTPase-activating proteins (ARF GAPs). One of these is a 37 kDa protein, designated ZAC, which has a novel domain structure in which the N-terminal ARF GAP domain and a C-terminal C2 domain are separated by a region without homology to other known proteins. Zac promoter/-glucuronidase reporter assays revealed highest expression levels in flowering tissue, rosettes and roots. ZAC protein was immuno-detected mainly in association with membranes and fractionated with Golgi and plasma membrane marker proteins. ZAC membrane association was confirmed in assays by a fusion between ZAC and the green fluorescence protein and prompted an analysis of the in vitro phospholipid-binding ability of ZAC. Phospholipid dot-blot and liposome-binding assays indicated that fusion proteins containing the ZAC-C2 domain bind anionic phospholipids non-specifically, with some variance in Ca2+ and salt dependence. Similar assays demonstrated specific affinity of the ZAC N-terminal region (residues 1–174) for phosphatidylinositol 3-monophosphate (PI-3-P). Binding was dependent in part on an intact zinc finger motif, but proteins containing only the zinc finger domain (residues 1–105) did not bind PI-3-P. Recombinant ZAC possessed GTPase-activating activity on Arabidopsis ARF proteins. These data identify a novel PI-3-P-binding protein region and thereby provide evidence that this phosphoinositide is recognized as a signal in plants. A role for ZAC in the regulation of ARF-mediated vesicular transport in plants is discussed. 相似文献

—The effects of Ca2+-free incubation medium on in vitro axoplasmic transport of proteins were studied in the central and peripheral branches of primary afferent spinal neurons of frog. Following exposure of dorsal root ganglia to [3H]leucine, the amount of radioactive protein transported along the axons during a subsequent 19 h period was decreased by approximately 60 per cent in preparations incubated in Ca2+-free, 1 mm -EGTA medium compared to those in normal medium. In similar Ca2+-free conditions the endogenous calcium levels were decreased to one-fourth the levels found following incubation in normal medium. Neither raising EGTA concentrations to 10 mm nor incubation in Ca2+-free medium prior to the [3H]leucine pulse were found to decrease the amount of transported protein in Ca2+-free medium by more than 70 per cent. The decrement in the amount of transported proteins did not appear to be due to an effect of Ca2+-free medium upon either the uptake of [3H]leucine into ganglion cells or upon the incorporation of radioactive amino acid into protein. The data are interpreted to suggest (i) that‘loading' of proteins onto the transport system is inhibited during Ca2+-free incubation and (ii) that the apparent transport of radioactive proteins during Ca2+-free incubation conditions might reflect proximo-distal movement of either microtubular protein or some other protein components of the transport system. It is proposed that calcium ions might function as reversible bonds between the transport system and‘transported' proteins. 相似文献

Neuroblastoma and glioma cells were grown in the presence of [3H]galactose, and the incorporation of 3H into gangliosides and the transport of newly synthesized gangliosides to the cell surface were examined under different experimental conditions. A variety of drugs, including inhibitors of protein synthesis and energy metabolism, modulators of the cytoskeleton and the ionophore monensin, had no effect on the transport of newly synthesized GD1a in neuroblastoma cells. Only low temperature effectively blocked translocation to the plasma membrane. Monensin, however, had marked effects on the biosynthesis of gangliosides and neutral glycosphingolipids. Whereas incorporation of 3H into complex glycosphingolipids was reduced, labeling of glucosylceramide was increased in cells exposed to monensin. In addition, biosynthesis of the latter glycolipid was less susceptible to low temperatures than that of more complex ones. Previous studies have implicated the Golgi apparatus as the predominant site of glycosylation of gangliosides. As monensin has been reported to interfere with the Golgi apparatus, our results indicate that glucosylceramide may be synthesized at a site that is separate from the site where further glycosylation occurs. Once synthesis of a ganglioside is completed, transport of the molecule to the cell surface proceeds under conditions of cytoskeletal disruption, energy depletion and ionic inbalance, but not low temperature. 相似文献

An in vitro system for studying fast axonal transport in mammalian nerves has been developed. The viability of in vitro nerve preparations was established on the basis of three criteria: electron microscopy, electrical properties, and the activities of two marker enzymes, 5'-nucleotidase and total ATPase. The specific activity of transported proteins was greater using the in vitro procedure, and the level of locally incorporated radioactivity lower, when compared to in vivo transport experiments. Separation of solubilized transported proteins on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate showed that a large number of polypeptides are transported. Using a double label procedure which employed L-[3H]methionine and L-[35S]methionine, proteins transported in vitro and in vivo were compared. No differences in the electrophoretic distribution of transported proteins from the two systems was seen. The major component of transported proteins electrophoresed with an apparent molecular weight of 105,000 ± 24,000. Using the in vitro system, transported proteins were compared to those labelled locally in either Schwann cells or cells of the dorsal root ganglion. Large differences in the labelling patterns were observed in both comparisons. We conclude that in vitro procedures provide a valid means of studying rapid axoplasmic transport. The proteins carried by rapid axoplasmic transport differ from those synthesized in either the Schwann cells of the sciatic nerve or the cells of the dorsal root ganglion. 相似文献

The effects of in vivo freezing and glucose cryoprotectant on protein glycation were investigated in the wood frog, Rana sylvatica. Our studies revealed no difference in the fructoselysine content of blood plasma sampled from control, 27 h frozen and 18 h thawed wood frogs. Glycated hemoglobin (GHb) decreased slightly with 48 h freezing exposure and was below control levels after 7 d recovery, while glycated serum albumin was unchanged by 48 h freezing but did increase after 7 d of recovery. In vitro exposure of blood lysates to glucose revealed that the GHb production in wood frogs was similar to that of the rat but was lower than in leopard frogs. We conclude that wood frog hemoglobin was glycated in vitro; however, GHb production was not apparent during freezing and recovery when in vivo glucose is highly elevated. It is possible that wood frog blood proteins have different in vivo susceptibilities to glycation. 相似文献

The effect of the vacuolar H+-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1 (Baf A1) on the localization of pre-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC) and Golgi marker proteins was used to study the role of acidification in the function of early secretory compartments. Baf A1 inhibited both brefeldin A- and nocodazole-induced retrograde transport of Golgi proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), whereas anterograde ER-to-Golgi transport remained largely unaffected. Furthermore, p58/ERGIC-53, which normally cycles between the ER, IC, and cis-Golgi, was arrested in pre-Golgi tubules and vacuoles, and the number of p58-positive ~80-nm Golgi (coatomer protein I) vesicles was reduced, suggesting that the drug inhibits the retrieval of the protein from post-ER compartments. In parallel, redistribution of β-coatomer protein from the Golgi to peripheral pre-Golgi structures took place. The small GTPase rab1p was detected in short pre-Golgi tubules in control cells and was efficiently recruited to the tubules accumulating in the presence of Baf A1. In contrast, these tubules showed no enrichment of newly synthesized, anterogradely transported proteins, indicating that they participate in retrograde transport. These results suggest that the pre-Golgi structures contain an active H+-ATPase that regulates retrograde transport at the ER–Golgi boundary. Interestingly, although Baf A1 had distinct effects on peripheral pre-Golgi structures, only more central, p58-containing elements accumulated detectable amounts of 3-(2,4-dinitroanilino)-3′-amino-N-methyldipropylamine (DAMP), a marker for acidic compartments, raising the possibility that the lumenal pH of the pre-Golgi structures gradually changes in parallel with their translocation to the Golgi region. 相似文献
