The plant toxin ricin is transported to the Golgi and the endoplasmic reticulum before translocation to the cytosol where it inhibits protein synthesis. The toxin can therefore be used to investigate pathways leading to the Golgi apparatus. Except for the Rab9-mediated transport of mannose 6-phosphate receptors from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN), transport routes between endosomes and the Golgi apparatus are still poorly characterized. To investigate endosome to Golgi transport, we have used here a modified ricin molecule containing a tyrosine sulfation site and quantified incorporation of radioactive sulfate, a TGN modification. A tetracycline-inducible mutant Rab9S21N HeLa cell line was constructed and characterized to study whether Rab9 was involved in transport of ricin to the TGN and, if not, to further investigate the route used by ricin. Induced expression of Rab9S21N inhibited Golgi transport of mannose 6-phosphate receptors but did not affect the sulfation of ricin, suggesting that ricin is transported to the TGN via a Rab9-independent pathway. Moreover, because Rab11 is present in the endosomal recycling compartment and the TGN, studies of transient transfections with mutant Rab11 were performed. The results indicated that routing of ricin from endosomes to the TGN occurs by a Rab11-independent pathway. Finally, because clathrin has been implicated in early endosome to TGN transport, ricin transport was investigated in cells with inducible expression of antisense to clathrin heavy chain. Importantly, endosome to TGN transport (sulfation of endocytosed ricin) was unchanged when clathrin function was abolished. In conclusion, ricin is transported from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus by a Rab9-, Rab11-, and clathrin-independent pathway.  相似文献

Ricin is transported from early endosomes and/or the recycling compartment to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and subsequently to the endoplasmic recticulum (ER) before it enters the cytosol and intoxicates cells. We have investigated the role of the Rab6 isoforms in retrograde transport of ricin using both oligo- and vector-based RNAi assays. Ricin transport to the TGN was inhibited by the depletion of Rab6A when the Rab6A messenger RNA (mRNA) levels were reduced by more than 40% and less than 75%. However, when Rab6A mRNA was reduced by more than 75% and Rab6A' mRNA was simultaneously up-regulated, the inhibition of ricin sulfation was abolished, indicating that the up-regulation of Rab6A' may compensate for the loss of Rab6A function. In addition, we found that a near complete depletion of Rab6A' gave approximately 40% reduction in ricin sulfation. The up-regulation of Rab6A mRNA levels did not seem to compensate for the loss of Rab6A' function. The depletion of both Rab6A and Rab6A' gave a stronger inhibition of ricin sulfation than what was observed knocking down the two isoforms separately. In conclusion, both Rab6A and Rab6A' seem to be involved in the transport of ricin from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that the interaction of the angiotensin II type 1A receptor (AT(1A)R) carboxyl-terminal tail with Rab5a may modulate Rab5a activity, leading to the homotypic fusion of endocytic vesicles. Therefore, we have investigated whether AT(1A)R/Rab5a interactions mediate the retention of AT(1A)R.beta-arrestin complexes in early endosomes and whether the overexpression of Rab7 and Rab11 GTPases influences AT(1A)R lysosomal degradation and plasma membrane recycling. We found that internalized AT(1A)R was retained in Rab5a-positive early endosomes and was neither targeted to lysosomes nor recycled back to the cell surface, whereas a mutant defective in Rab5a binding, AT(1A)R-(1-349), was targeted to lysosomes for degradation. However, the loss of Rab5a binding to the AT(1A)R carboxyl-terminal tail did not promote AT(1A)R recycling. Rather, it was the stable binding of beta-arrestin to the AT(1A)R that prevented, at least in part, AT(1A)R recycling. The overexpression of wild-type Rab7 and Rab7-Q67L resulted in both increased AT(1A)R degradation and AT(1A)R targeting to lysosomes. The Rab7 expression-dependent transition of "putative" AT(1A)R.beta-arrestin complexes to late endosomes was blocked by the expression of dominant-negative Rab5a-S34N. Rab11 overexpression established AT(1A)R recycling and promoted the redistribution of AT(1A)R.beta-arrestin complexes from early to recycling endosomes. Taken together, our data suggest that Rab5, Rab7, and Rab11 work in concert with one another to regulate the intracellular trafficking patterns of the AT(1A)R.  相似文献

Semliki forest virus (SFV) is internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis, and transported via early endosomes to late endosomes and lysosomes. The intracellular pathway taken by individual fluorescently labeled SFV particles was followed using immunofluorescence in untransfected cells, and by video-enhanced, triple-color fluorescence microscopy in live cells transfected with GFP- and RFP-tagged Rab5, Rab7, Rab4, and Arf1. The viruses progressed from Rab5-positive early endosomes to a population of early endosomes (about 10% of total) that contained both Rab5 and Rab7. SFV were sequestered in the Rab7 domains, and they were sorted away from the early endosomes when these domains detached as separate transport carriers devoid of Rab5, Rab4, EEA1, Arf1, and transferrin. The process was independent of Arf1 and the acidic pH in early endosomes. Nocodazole treatment showed that the release of transport carriers was assisted by microtubules. Expression of constitutively inactive Rab7T22N resulted in accumulation of SFV in early endosomes. We concluded that Rab7 is recruited to early endosomes, where it forms distinct domains that mediate cargo sorting as well as the formation of late-endosome-targeted transport vesicles.  相似文献

Lysosome-related organelles (LROs) are synthesized in specialized cell types where they largely coexist with conventional lysosomes. Most of the known cellular transport machinery involved in biogenesis are ubiquitously expressed and shared between lysosomes and LROs. Examples of common components are the adaptor protein complex-3 (AP-3) and biogenesis of lysosome-related organelle complex (BLOC)-2. These protein complexes control sorting and transport of newly synthesized integral membrane proteins from early endosomes to both lysosomes and LROs such as the melanosome. However, it is unknown what factors cooperate with the ubiquitous transport machinery to mediate transport to LROs in specialized cells. Focusing on the melanosome, we show that the ubiquitous machinery interacts with cell type-specific Rab proteins, Rab38 and Rab32, to facilitate transport to the maturing organelle. BLOC-2, AP-3, and AP-1 coimmunoprecipitated with Rab38 and Rab32 from MNT-1 melanocytic cell extracts. BLOC-2, AP-3, AP-1, and clathrin partially colocalized with Rab38 and Rab32 by confocal immunofluorescence microscopy in MNT-1 cells. Rab38- and Rab32-deficient MNT-1 cells displayed abnormal trafficking and steady state levels of known cargoes of the BLOC-2, AP-3, and AP-1 pathways, the melanin-synthesizing enzymes tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein-1. These observations support the idea that Rab38 and Rab32 are the specific factors that direct the ubiquitous machinery to mediate transport from early endosomes to maturing LROs. Additionally, analysis of tyrosinase-related protein-2 and total melanin production indicates that Rab32 has unique functions that cannot be carried out by Rab38 in melanosome biogenesis.  相似文献

Rab7: a key to lysosome biogenesis   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
The molecular machinery behind lysosome biogenesis and the maintenance of the perinuclear aggregate of late endocytic structures is not well understood. A likely candidate for being part of this machinery is the small GTPase Rab7, but it is unclear whether this protein is associated with lysosomes or plays any role in the regulation of the perinuclear lysosome compartment. Previously, Rab7 has mainly been implicated in transport from early to late endosomes. We have now used a new approach to analyze the role of Rab7: transient expression of Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP)-tagged Rab7 wt and mutant proteins in HeLa cells. EGFP-Rab7 wt was associated with late endocytic structures, mainly lysosomes, which aggregated and fused in the perinuclear region. The size of the individual lysosomes as well as the degree of perinuclear aggregation increased with the expression levels of EGFP-Rab7 wt and, more dramatically, the active EGFP-Rab7Q67L mutant. In contrast, upon expression of the dominant-negative mutants EGFP-Rab7T22N and EGFP-Rab7N125I, which localized mainly to the cytosol, the perinuclear lysosome aggregate disappeared and lysosomes, identified by colocalization of cathepsin D and lysosome-associated membrane protein-1, became dispersed throughout the cytoplasm, they were inaccessible to endocytosed molecules such as low-density lipoprotein, and their acidity was strongly reduced, as determined by decreased accumulation of the acidotropic probe LysoTracker Red. In contrast, early endosomes associated with Rab5 and the transferrin receptor, late endosomes enriched in the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor, and the trans-Golgi network, identified by its enrichment in TGN-38, were unchanged. These data demonstrate for the first time that Rab7, controlling aggregation and fusion of late endocytic structures/lysosomes, is essential for maintenance of the perinuclear lysosome compartment.  相似文献

The transport and sorting of soluble and membrane-associated macromolecules arriving at endosomal compartments require a complex set of Rab proteins. Rab22a has been localized to the endocytic compartment; however, very little is known about the function of Rab22a and inconsistent results have been reported in studies performed in different cell lines. To characterize the function of Rab22a in endocytic transport, the wild-type protein (Rab22a WT), a hydrolysis-deficient mutant (Rab22a Q64L), and a mutant with reduced affinity for GTP (Rab22a S19N) were expressed in CHO cells. None of the three Rab22a constructs affected the transport of rhodamine-dextran to lysosomes, the digestion of internalized proteins, or the lysosomal localization of cathepsin D. In contrast with the mild effect of Rab22a on the endosome-lysosome route, cells expressing Rab22a WT and Rab22a Q64L presented a strong delay in the retrograde transport of cholera toxin from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus. Moreover, these cells accumulated the cation independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor in endosomes. These observations indicate that Rab22a can affect the trafficking from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus probably by promoting fusion among endosomes and impairing the proper segregation of membrane domains required for targeting to the trans-Golgi network (TGN).  相似文献

Rab5 is a small GTPase that plays roles in the homotypic fusion of early endosomes and regulation of intracellular vesicle transport. We show here that expression of GFP-tagged GTPase-deficient form of Rab5b (Rab5bQ79L) in NRK cells results in the sequential formation of three morphologically and functionally distinct types of endosomes. Expression of GFP-Rab5bQ79L initially caused a homotypic fusion of early endosomes accompanying a redistribution of the TGN-resident cargo molecules, and subsequent fusion with late endosomes/lysosomes, leading to the formation of giant hybrid organelles with features of early endosomes and late endosomes/lysosomes. Surprisingly, the giant endosomes gradually fragmented and shrunk, leading to the accumulation of early endosome clusters and concurrent reformation of late endosomes/lysosomes, a process accelerated by treatment with a phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI(3)K) inhibitor, wortmannin. We postulate that such sequential processes reflect the biogenesis and maintenance of late endosomes/lysosomes, presumably via direct fusion with early endosomes and subsequent fission from hybrid organelles. Thus, our findings suggest a regulatory role for Rab5 in not only the early endocytic pathway, but also the late endocytic pathway, of membrane trafficking in coordination with PI(3)K activity.  相似文献

The small GTPases Rab4, Rab5 and Rab7 are endosomal proteins which play important roles in the regulation of various stages of endosomal trafficking. Rab4 and Rab5 have both been localized to early endosomes and have been shown to control recycling and endosomal fusion, respectively. Rab7, a marker of the late endosomal compartment, is involved in the regulation of the late endocytic pathway. Here, we compare the role of Rab4, Rab5 and Rab7 in early and late endosomal trafficking in HeLa cells monitoring ligand uptake, recycling and degradation. Expression of the Rab4 dominant negative mutant (Rab4AS22N) leads to a significant reduction in both recycling and degradation while, as expected, Rab7 mutants exclusively affect epidermal growth factor (EGF) and low density lipoprotein degradation. As also expected, expression of the dominant negative Rab5 mutant perturbs internalization kinetics and affects both recycling and degradation. Expression of Rab4WT and dominant positive mutant (Rab4AQ67L) changes dramatically the morphology of the transferrin compartment leading to the formation of membrane tubules. These transferrin positive tubules display swellings (varicosities) some of which are positive for early endosomal antigen-1 and contain EGF. We propose that the Rab4GTPase is important for the function of the early sorting endosomal compartment, affecting trafficking along both recycling and degradative pathways.  相似文献

Rab14 is part of the early endosomal clathrin-coated TGN microdomain   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Rab14 localizes to the Golgi/TGN and to early endosomes, but its biological function remains unclear. By structural modeling, we identified Rab14-specific residues and established a close relationship between the Rab2/Rab4/Rab14, Rab11/25 and Rab39 sub-groups within the Rab protein family. By quantitative confocal microscopy and by density centrifugation we show that Rab14 is part of the early endosomal AP-1 microdomain. Overexpression of a dominant-negative Rab14 GTP-binding mutant that solely localizes to the Golgi donor compartment accelerated EGF degradation. We suggest that the AP-1 microdomain represents the interconnecting compartment in which Rab14 vesicles cycle between early endosomes and the Golgi cisternae.  相似文献

Several GTPases of the Rab family, known to be regulators of membrane traffic between organelles, have been described and localized to various intracellular compartments. Rab11 has previously been reported to be associated with the pericentriolar recycling compartment, post-Golgi vesicles, and the trans-Golgi network (TGN). We compared the effect of overexpression of wild-type and mutant forms of Rab11 on the different intracellular transport steps in the endocytic/degradative and the biosynthetic/exocytic pathways in HeLa cells. We also studied transport from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus using the Shiga toxin B subunit (STxB) and TGN38 as reporter molecules. Overexpression of both Rab11 wild-type (Rab11wt) and mutants altered the localization of the transferrrin receptor (TfR), internalized Tf, the STxB, and TGN38. In cells overexpressing Rab11wt and in a GTPase-deficient Rab11 mutant (Rab11Q70L), these proteins were found in vesicles showing characteristics of sorting endosomes lacking cellubrevin (Cb). In contrast, they were redistributed into an extended tubular network, together with Cb, in cells overexpressing a dominant negative mutant of Rab11 (Rab11S25N). This tubularized compartment was not accessible to Tf internalized at temperatures <20 degrees C, suggesting that it is of recycling endosomal origin. Overexpression of Rab11wt, Rab11Q70L, and Rab11S25N also inhibited STxB and TGN38 transport from endosomes to the TGN. These results suggest that Rab11 influences endosome to TGN trafficking primarily by regulating membrane distribution inside the early endosomal pathway.  相似文献

Many mycobacteria are intramacrophage pathogens that reside within nonacidified phagosomes that fuse with early endosomes but do not mature to phagolysosomes. The mechanism by which mycobacteria block this maturation process remains elusive. To gain insight into whether fusion with early endosomes is required for mycobacteria-mediated inhibition of phagosome maturation, we investigated how perturbing the GTPase cycles of Rab5 and Rab7, GTPases that regulate early and late endosome fusion, respectively, would affect phagosome maturation. Retroviral transduction of the constitutively activated forms of both GTPases into primary murine macrophages had no effect on Mycobacterium avium retention in an early endosomal compartment. Interestingly, expression of dominant negative Rab5, Rab5(S34N), but not dominant negative Rab7, resulted in a significant increase in colocalization of M. avium with markers of late endosomes/lysosomes and increased mycobacterial killing. This colocalization was specific to mycobacteria since Rab5(S34N) expressing cells showed diminished trafficking of endocytic tracers to lysosomes. We further demonstrated that maturation of M. avium phagosomes was halted in Rab5(S34N) expressing macrophages supplemented with exogenous iron. These findings suggest that fusion with early endosomes is required for mycobacterial retention in early phagosomal compartments and that an inadequate supply of iron is one factor in mycobacteria's inability to prevent the normal maturation process in Rab5(S34N)-expressing macrophages.  相似文献

Sorting endosomes and the endocytic recycling compartment are critical intracellular stores for the rapid recycling of internalized membrane receptors to the cell surface in multiple cell types. However, the molecular mechanisms distinguishing fast receptor recycling from sorting endosomes and slow receptor recycling from the endocytic recycling compartment remain poorly understood. We previously reported that Rab15 differentially regulates transferrin receptor trafficking through sorting endosomes and the endocytic recycling compartment, suggesting a role for distinct Rab15-effector interactions at these endocytic compartments. In this study, we identified the novel protein Rab15 effector protein (REP15) as a binding partner for Rab15-GTP. REP15 is compartment specific, colocalizing with Rab15 and Rab11 on the endocytic recycling compartment but not with Rab15, Rab4, or early endosome antigen 1 on sorting endosomes. REP15 interacts directly with Rab15-GTP but not with Rab5 or Rab11. Consistent with its localization, REP15 overexpression and small interfering RNA-mediated depletion inhibited transferrin receptor recycling from the endocytic recycling compartment, without affecting receptor entry into or recycling from sorting endosomes. Our data identify REP15 as a compartment-specific protein for receptor recycling from the endocytic recycling compartment, highlighting that the rapid and slow modes of transferrin receptor recycling are mechanistically distinct pathways.  相似文献

The Rab coupling protein (RCP) is a recently identified novel protein that belongs to the Rab11-FIP family. RCP interacts specifically with Rab4 and Rab11, small guanosine-5'-triphosphatases that function as regulators along the endosomal recycling pathway. We used fluorescence confocal microscopy and biochemical approaches to evaluate the participation of RCP during particle uptake and phagosome maturation. In macrophages, RCP is predominantly membrane-bound and displays a punctuate vesicular pattern throughout the cytoplasm. RCP is mainly associated with transferrin-containing structures and Rab11-labeled endosomes. Overexpression of H13, the carboxyl-terminal region of RCP that contains the Rab binding domain, results in an abnormal endosomal compartment. Interestingly, we found that RCP is associated as discrete patches or protein domains to early phagosomal membranes. In macrophages, overexpression of full-length RCP stimulates recycling from the phagosomal compartment, whereas overexpression of H13 diminishes this vesicular transport step. It is likely that acting as an intermediate between Rab4 and Rab11, RCP regulates membrane flux along the phagocytic pathway via recycling events.  相似文献

During invasion of nonphagocytic cells by Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), host cell lysosomes are recruited to the plasma membrane attachment site followed by lysosomal enzyme secretion. The membrane trafficking events involved in invasion have not been delineated. We demonstrate here that T. cruzi invasion of nonphagocytic cells was completely abolished by overexpression of a dominant negative mutant of dynamin. Likewise, overexpression of a dominant negative mutant of Rab5, the rate-limiting GTPase for endocytosis, resulted in reduced infection rates compared with cells expressing Rab5 wild-type. Moreover, cells expressing the activated mutant of Rab5 experienced higher infection rates. A similar pattern was also observed when Rab7-transfected cells were examined. Confocal microscopy experiments showed that parasites colocalized with green fluorescent protein-Rab5-positive early endosomes after 5 min of invasion. These data clearly indicate that newly forming T. cruzi phagosomes first interact with an early endosomal compartment and subsequently with other late component markers before lysosomal interaction occurs.  相似文献

We investigated the intracellular route of Salmonella in macrophages to determine a plausible mechanism for their survival in phagocytes. Western blot analysis of isolated phagosomes using specific antibodies revealed that by 5 min after internalization dead Salmonella-containing phagosomes acquire transferrin receptors (a marker for early endosomes), whereas by 30 min the dead bacteria are found in vesicles carrying the late endosomal markers cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptors, Rab7 and Rab9. In contrast, live Salmonella-containing phagosomes (LSP) retain a significant amount of Rab5 and transferrin receptor until 30 min, selectively deplete Rab7 and Rab9, and never acquire mannose 6-phosphate receptors even 90 min after internalization. Retention of Rab5 and Rab18 and selective depletion of Rab7 and Rab9 presumably enable the LSP to avoid transport to lysosomes through late endosomes. The presence of immature cathepsin D (48 kDa) and selective depletion of the vacuolar ATPase in LSP presumably contributes to the less acidic pH of LSP. In contrast, proteolytically processed cathepsin D (M(r) 17,000) was detected by 30 min on the dead Salmonella-containing phagosomes. Morphological analysis also revealed that after uptake by macrophages, the dead Salmonella are transported to lysosomes, whereas the live bacteria persist in compartments that avoid fusion with lysosomes, indicating that live Salmonella bypass the normal endocytic route targeted to lysosomes and mature in a specialized compartment.  相似文献

Rab GTPases are key regulators of vesicular protein transport in both the endocytic and exocytic pathways. In endocytosis and recycling, Rab11 plays a role in receptor recycling to plasma membrane via the pericentriolar recycling compartment. However, little is known about the molecular requirements and partners that promote transport through Rab11-positive recycling endosomes. Here, we report a novel approach to reconstitute transport to immunoabsorbed recycling endosomes in vitro. We show that transport is temperature-, energy-, and time-dependent and requires the presence of Rab proteins, as it is inhibited by the Rab-interacting protein Rab GDP-dissociation inhibitor that removes Rab proteins from the membrane. Cytochalasin D, a drug that blocks actin polymerization, inhibits the in vitro assay, suggesting that transport to recycling endosomes depends on an intact actin cytoskeleton. Using an affinity chromatography approach we show the identification of Rab11-interacting proteins including actin that stimulate transport to recycling endosomes in vitro.  相似文献

Two endosome populations involved in recycling of membranes and receptors to the plasma membrane have been described, the early and the recycling endosome. However, this distinction is mainly based on the flow of cargo molecules and the spatial distribution of these membranes within the cell. To get insights into the membrane organization of the recycling pathway, we have studied Rab4, Rab5, and Rab11, three regulatory components of the transport machinery. Following transferrin as cargo molecule and GFP-tagged Rab proteins we could show that cargo moves through distinct domains on endosomes. These domains are occupied by different Rab proteins, revealing compartmentalization within the same continuous membrane. Endosomes are comprised of multiple combinations of Rab4, Rab5, and Rab11 domains that are dynamic but do not significantly intermix over time. Three major populations were observed: one that contains only Rab5, a second with Rab4 and Rab5, and a third containing Rab4 and Rab11. These membrane domains display differential pharmacological sensitivity, reflecting their biochemical and functional diversity. We propose that endosomes are organized as a mosaic of different Rab domains created through the recruitment of specific effector proteins, which cooperatively act to generate a restricted environment on the membrane.  相似文献

Rab5 and Rab4 are small monomeric GTPases localized on early endosomes and function in vesicle fusion events. These Rab proteins regulate the endocytosis and recycling or degradation of activated receptor tyrosine kinases such as the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR). The p85alpha subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase contains a BH domain with sequence homology to GTPase activating proteins (GAPs), but has not previously been shown to possess GAP activity. In this report, we demonstrate that p85alpha has GAP activity toward Rab5, Rab4, Cdc42, Rac1 and to a lesser extent Rab6, with little GAP activity toward Rab11. Purified recombinant Rab5 and p85alpha can bind directly to each other and not surprisingly, the p85alpha-encoded GAP activity is present in the BH domain. Because p85alpha stays bound to the PDGFR during receptor endocytosis, p85alpha will also be localized to the same early endosomal compartment as Rab5 and Rab4. Taken together, the physical co-localization and the ability of p85alpha to preferentially stimulate the down-regulation of Rab5 and Rab4 GTPases suggests that p85alpha regulates how long Rab5 and Rab4 remain in their GTP-bound active state. Cells expressing BH domain mutants of p85 show a reduced rate of PDGFR degradation as compared with wild type p85 expressing cells. These cells also show sustained activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt pathways. Thus, the p85alpha protein may play a role in the down-regulation of activated receptors through its temporal control of the GTPase cycles of Rab5 and Rab4.  相似文献

We found that wortmannin, a potent phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, markedly induced the formation of Rab21-positive tubular compartments in A431 cells. By time-lapse fluorescence microscopy of live cells co-expressing fluorescent protein-fused Rab21 and other marker proteins, it was shown that the Rab21-positive tubules in wortmannin-treated cells were derived from Rab5-positive early endosomes, but not from late endosomes, recycling endosomes, lysosomes or the trans-Golgi network. The formation of Rab21-positive tubules was very dynamic and required microtubules. Rab21-positive tubules were also formed by the treatment of cells with 3-methyladenine (3-MA), which inhibits class III PI3K rather than class I PI3K. Furthermore, the loss of PI(3)P correlated with the tubulation of Rab21-positive endosomes in cells co-expressing fluorescent protein-fused Rab21 and a tandem FYVE domain. These results suggest that the lowering of PI(3)P as a result of class III PI3K inhibition may be an important cue for the morphological change of Rab21-positive early endosomes from vesicular to tubular form.  相似文献
