COP I and COP II coat proteins direct protein and membrane trafficking in between early compartments of the secretory pathway in eukaryotic cells. These coat proteins perform the dual, essential tasks of selecting appropriate cargo proteins and deforming the lipid bilayer of appropriate donor membranes into buds and vesicles. COP II proteins are required for selective export of newly synthesized proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). COP I proteins mediate a retrograde transport pathway that selectively recycles proteins from the cis-Golgi complex to the ER. Additionally, COP I coat proteins have complex functions in intra-Golgi trafficking and in maintaining the normal structure of the mammalian interphase Golgi complex.  相似文献

The efficacy and success of many cellular processes is dependent on a tight orchestration of proteins trafficking to and from their site(s) of action in a time-controlled fashion. Recently, a dynamic cycle of palmitoylation/de-palmitoylation has been shown to regulate shuttling of several proteins, including the small GTPases H-Ras and N-Ras, and the GABA-synthesizing enzyme GAD65, between the Golgi compartment and either the plasma membrane or synaptic vesicle membranes. These proteins are peripheral membrane proteins that in the depalmitoylated state cycle rapidly on and off the cytosolic face of ER/Golgi membranes. Palmitoylation of one or more cysteines, by a Golgi localized palmitoyl transferase (PAT) results in trapping in Golgi membranes, and sorting to a vesicular pathway in route to the plasma membrane or synaptic vesicles. A depalmitoylation step by an acyl protein thioesterase (APT) releases the protein from membranes in the periphery of the cell resulting in retrograde trafficking back to Golgi membranes by a non-vesicular pathway. The proteins can then enter a new cycle of palmitoylation and depalmitoylation. This inter-compartmental trafficking is orders of magnitude faster than vesicular trafficking. Recent advances in identifying a large family of PATs, their protein substrates, and single PAT mutants with severe phenotypes, reveal their critical importance in development, synaptic transmission, and regulation of signaling cascades. The emerging knowledge of enzymes involved in adding and removing palmitate is that they provide an intricate regulatory network involved in timing of protein function and transport that responds to intracellular and extracellular signals.  相似文献

Changes in the lipid composition of intracellular membranes are believed to take part in the molecular processes that sustain traffic between organelles of the endocytic and exocytic transport pathways. Here, we investigated the participation of the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 in the secretory pathway of mammary epithelial cells. Treatment with bromoenol lactone, a suicide substrate which interferes with the production of lysophospholipids by the calcium-independent phospholipase A2, resulted in the reduction of milk proteins secretion. The inhibitor slowed down transport of the caseins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus and affected the distribution of p58 and p23, indicating that the optimal process of transport of these proteins between the endoplasmic reticulum, the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi intermediate compartment and/or the cis-side of the Golgi was dependent upon the production of lysolipids. Moreover, bromoenol lactone was found to delay the rate of protein transport from the trans-Golgi network to the plasma membrane. Concomitantly, membrane-bound structures containing casein accumulated in the juxtanuclear Golgi region. We concluded from these results that efficient formation of post-Golgi carriers also requires the phospholipase activity. These data further support the participation of calcium-independent phospholipase A2 in membrane trafficking and shed a new light on the tubulo/vesicular transport of milk protein through the secretory pathway.  相似文献

Coat protein (COP)-coated vesicles have been shown to mediate protein transport through early steps of the secretory pathway in yeast and mammalian cells. Here, we attempt to elucidate their role in vesicular trafficking of plant cells, using a combined biochemical and ultrastructural approach. Immunogold labeling of cryosections revealed that COPI proteins are localized to microvesicles surrounding or budding from the Golgi apparatus. COPI-coated buds primarily reside on the cis-face of the Golgi stack. In addition, COPI and Arf1p show predominant labeling of the cis-Golgi stack, gradually diminishing toward the trans-Golgi stack. In vitro COPI-coated vesicle induction experiments demonstrated that Arf1p as well as coatomer could be recruited from cauliflower cytosol onto mixed endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi membranes. Binding of Arf1p and coatomer is inhibited by brefeldin A, underlining the specificity of the recruitment mechanism. In vitro vesicle budding was confirmed by identification of COPI-coated vesicles through immunogold negative staining in a fraction purified from isopycnic sucrose gradient centrifugation. Similar in vitro induction experiments with tobacco ER/Golgi membranes prepared from transgenic plants overproducing barley alpha-amylase-HDEL yielded a COPI-coated vesicle fraction that contained alpha-amylase as well as calreticulin.  相似文献

The signal recognition particle (SRP) is required for protein translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). With RNA interference we reduced its level about ten-fold in mammalian cells to study its cellular functions. Such low levels proved insufficient for efficient ER-targeting, since the accumulation of several proteins in the secretory pathway was specifically diminished. Although the cells looked unaffected, they displayed noticeable and selective defects in post-ER membrane trafficking. Specifically, the anterograde transport of VSV-G and the retrograde transport of the Shiga toxin B-subunit were stalled at the level of the Golgi whereas the endocytosed transferrin receptor failed to recycle to the plasma membrane. Endocytic membrane trafficking from the plasma membrane to lysosomes or Golgi was undisturbed and major morphological changes in the ER and the Golgi were undetectable at low resolution. Selective membrane trafficking defects were specifically suppressed under conditions when low levels of SRP became sufficient for efficient ER-targeting and are therefore a direct consequence of the lower targeting capacity of cells with reduced SRP levels. Selective post-ER membrane trafficking defects occur at SRP levels sufficient for survival suggesting that changes in SRP levels and their effects on post-ER membrane trafficking might serve as a mechanism to alter temporarily the localization of selected proteins.  相似文献

The plasma membrane of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is devoid of lipid-synthesizing enzymes, but contains all classes of bilayer-forming lipids. As the lipid composition of the plasma membrane does not match any of the intracellular membranes, specific trafficking of lipids from internal membranes, especially the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi, to the cell periphery is required. Although the secretory pathway is an obvious route to translocate glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids and sterols to the plasma membrane, experimental evidence for the role of this pathway in lipid transport is rare. Addressing this issue in a systematic way, we labeled temperature-sensitive secretory yeast mutants (sec mutants) with appropriate lipid precursors, isolated the plasma membranes at high purity and quantified labeled lipids of this compartment. Shifting sec mutants to the restrictive temperature reduced transport of both proteins and lipids to the plasma membrane, indicating that the latter compounds are also trafficked to the cell periphery through the protein secretory pathway. However, efficient sec blocks did not abrogate protein and lipid transport, suggesting that parallel pathway(s) for the translocation of membrane components to the plasma membrane of yeast must exist.  相似文献

H-, N-, and K-Ras are isoforms of Ras proteins, which undergo different lipid modifications at the C terminus. These post-translational events make possible the association of Ras proteins both with the inner plasma membrane and to the cytosolic surface of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex, which is also required for the proper function of these proteins. To better characterize the intracellular distribution and sorting of Ras proteins, constructs were engineered to express the C-terminal domain of H- and K-Ras fused to variants of green fluorescent protein. Using confocal microscopy, we found in CHO-K1 cells that H-Ras, which is palmitoylated and farnesylated, localized at the recycling endosome in addition to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. In contrast, K-Ras, which is farnesylated and nonpalmitoylated, mainly localized at the plasma membrane. Moreover, we demonstrate that sorting signals of H- and K-Ras are contained within the C-terminal domain of these proteins and that palmitoylation on this region of H-Ras might operate as a dominant sorting signal for proper subcellular localization of this protein in CHO-K1 cells. Using selective photobleaching techniques, we demonstrate the dynamic nature of H-Ras trafficking to the recycling endosome from plasma membrane. We also provide evidence that Rab5 and Rab11 activities are required for proper delivery of H-Ras to the endocytic recycling compartment. Using a chimera containing the Ras binding domain of c-Raf-1 fused to a fluorescent protein, we found that a pool of GTP-bound H-Ras localized on membranes from Rab11-positive recycling endosome after serum stimulation. These results suggest that H-Ras present in membranes of the recycling endosome might be activating signal cascades essential for the dynamic and function of the organelle.  相似文献

Rab2 requires atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (aPKC iota/lambda) to promote vesicle formation from vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs). The Rab2-generated vesicles are enriched in recycling proteins suggesting that the carriers are retrograde-directed and retrieve transport machinery back to the endoplasmic reticulum. These vesicles also contained the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). We have previously established that GAPDH is required for membrane transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex. Moreover, GAPDH is phosphorylated by aPKC iota/lambda and binds to the aPKC iota/lambda regulatory domain. In this study, we employed a combination of in vivo and in vitro assays and determined that GAPDH also interacts with Rab2. The site of GAPDH interaction was mapped to Rab2 residues 20-50. In addition to its glycolytic function, GAPDH has multiple intracellular roles. However, the function of GAPDH in the early secretory pathway is unknown. One possibility is that GAPDH ultimately provides energy in the form of ATP. To determine whether GAPDH catalytic activity was critical for transport in the early secretory pathway, a conservative substitution was made at Cys-149 located at the active site, and the mutant was biochemically characterized in a battery of assays. Although GAPDH (C149G) has no catalytic activity, Rab2 recruited the mutant protein to membranes in a quantitative binding assay. GAPDH (C149G) is phosphorylated by aPKC iota/lambda and binds directly to Rab2 when evaluated in an overlay binding assay. Importantly, VSV-G transport between the ER and Golgi complex is restored when an in vitro trafficking assay is performed with GAPDH-depleted cytosol and GAPDH (C149G). These data suggest that GAPDH imparts a unique function necessary for membrane trafficking from VTCs that does not require GAPDH glycolytic activity.  相似文献

Extracellular nucleotides signal via a large group of purinergic receptors. Although much is known about these receptors, the mechanism of nucleotide transport out of the cytoplasm is unknown. We developed a functional screen for ATP release to the extracellular space and identified Mcd4p, a 919-amino acid membrane protein with 14 putative transmembrane domains, as a participant in glucose-dependent ATP release from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This release occurred through the vesicular trafficking pathway initiated by ATP uptake into the Golgi compartment. Both the compartmental uptake and the extracellular release of ATP were regulated by the activity of the vacuolar H+-ATPase. It is likely that the Mcd4p pathway is generally involved in non-mitochondrial ATP movement across membranes, it is essential for Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum function, and its occurrence led to the appearance of P2 purinergic receptors.  相似文献

What is the first membrane fusion step in the secretory pathway? In mammals, transport vesicles coated with coat complex (COP) II deliver secretory cargo to vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs) that ferry cargo from endoplasmic reticulum exit sites to the Golgi stack. However, the precise origin of VTCs and the membrane fusion step(s) involved have remained experimentally intractable. Here, we document in vitro direct tethering and SNARE-dependent fusion of endoplasmic reticulum–derived COPII transport vesicles to form larger cargo containers. The assembly did not require detectable Golgi membranes, preexisting VTCs, or COPI function. Therefore, COPII vesicles appear to contain all of the machinery to initiate VTC biogenesis via homotypic fusion. However, COPI function enhanced VTC assembly, and early VTCs acquired specific Golgi components by heterotypic fusion with Golgi-derived COPI vesicles.  相似文献

The organelles of the exocytic pathway undergo a profound reorganization during the myogenic differentiation. Here, we have investigated the dynamics of the membrane trafficking at various stages of the differentiation process by using the green fluorescent protein-tagged, temperature-sensitive vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (tsG-GFP) as a marker. At the restrictive temperature of 39°C, the tsG-GFP located to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) at each stage of differentiation. Mobile membrane containers moving from the ER to the Golgi elements were seen in myoblasts and myotubes upon shifting the temperature to 20°C. In adult myofibers, in contrast, such containers were not seen although the tsG-GFP rapidly shifted from the ER to the Golgi elements. The mobility of tsG-GFP in the myofiber ER was restricted, suggesting localization in an ER sub-compartment. Contrasting with the ER-to-Golgi trafficking, transport from the Golgi elements to the plasma membrane involved mobile transport containers in all differentiation stages. These findings indicate that ER-to-Golgi trafficking in adult skeletal myofibers does not involve long-distance moving membrane carriers as occurs in other mammalian cell types.  相似文献

To examine the structural determinants necessary for TC10 trafficking, localization, and function in adipocytes, we generated a series of point mutations in the carboxyl-terminal targeting domain of TC10. Wild-type TC10 (TC10/WT) localized to secretory membrane compartments and caveolin-positive lipid raft microdomains at the plasma membrane. Expression of a TC10/C206S point mutant resulted in a trafficking and localization pattern that was indistinguishable from that of TC10/WT. In contrast, although TC10/C209S or the double TC10/C206,209S mutant was plasma membrane localized, it was excluded from both the secretory membrane system and the lipid raft compartments. Surprisingly, inhibition of Golgi membrane transport with brefeldin A did not prevent plasma membrane localization of TC10 or H-Ras. Moreover, inhibition of trans-Golgi network exit with a 19 degrees C temperature block did not prevent the trafficking of TC10 or H-Ras to the plasma membrane. These data demonstrate that TC10 and H-Ras can both traffic to the plasma membrane by at least two distinct transport mechanisms in adipocytes, one dependent upon intracellular membrane transport and another independent of the classical secretory membrane system. Moreover, the transport through the secretory pathway is necessary for the localization of TC10 to lipid raft microdomains at the plasma membrane.  相似文献

The organization of membrane trafficking between endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi within multinucleated muscle fibers was analyzed. We found that markers for the compartment involved in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi trafficking exhibited perinuclear as well as interfibrillar localization. Furthermore, these markers showed prominent colocalization with microtubules. To analyze membrane trafficking, we followed the temperature-controlled transport of the G protein of the mutant vesicular stomatitis virus, tsO45, in isolated myofibers. Perinuclear and cross-striated staining were seen at 39°C, while at 15°C a diffuse staining component appeared along a subset of interfibrillar microtubules. At 20°C, bright Golgi spots were seen to be associated with microtubules that appeared as circumnuclear rings and longitudinal bundles. Beneath the motor end plate, however, the organization of the Golgi elements and microtubules was found to be distinctive. Retrograde trafficking induced by brefeldin A resulted in the disappearance of the Golgi spots throughout the myofibers and the appearance of staining along microtubules. Thus, interfibrillar membranes seem to be active in protein export, and trafficking between endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi elements occurred throughout the myofibers. The results suggest that microtubules served as tracks for the two-way trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi compartment.  相似文献

Chlamydia trachomatis is an obligate intracellular pathogen that multiples within the confines of a membrane-bound vacuole called an inclusion. Approximately 40-50% of the sphingomyelin synthesized from exogenously added NBD-ceramide is specifically transported from the Golgi apparatus to the chlamydial inclusion (Hackstadt, T., M.A. Scidmore, and D.D. Rockey. 1995. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 92: 4877- 4881). Given this major disruption of a cellular exocytic pathway and the similarities between glycolipid and glycoprotein exocytosis, we wished to determine whether the processing and trafficking of glycoproteins through the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane in chlamydia-infected cells was also disrupted. We analyzed the processing of several model glycoproteins including vesicular stomatitis virus G- protein, transferrin receptor, and human histocompatibility leukocyte class I antigen. In infected cells, the posttranslational processing and trafficking of these specific proteins through the Golgi apparatus and subsequent transport to the plasma membrane was not significantly impaired, nor were these glycoproteins found associated with the chlamydial inclusion membrane. Studies of receptor recycling from endocytic vesicles employing fluorescently and HRP-tagged transferrin and anti-transferrin receptor antibody revealed an increased local concentration of transferrin and transferrin receptor around but never within the chlamydial inclusion. However, Scatchard analysis failed to show either an increased intracellular accumulation of transferrin receptor or a decreased number of plasma membrane receptors in infected cells. Furthermore, the rate of exocytosis from the recycling endosomes to the plasma membrane was not altered in chlamydia-infected cells. Thus, although C. trachomatis disrupts the exocytosis of sphingolipids and the Golgi apparatus appears physically distorted, glycosylation and exocytosis of representative secreted and endocytosed proteins are not disrupted. These results suggest the existence of a previously unrecognized sorting of sphingolipids and glycoproteins in C. trachomatis-infected cells.  相似文献

The processes that facilitate transport of integral membrane proteins though the secretory pathway and subsequently target them to particular cellular membranes are relevant to almost every field of biology. These transport processes involve integration of proteins into the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), passage from the ER to the Golgi, and post-Golgi trafficking. The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion (F) protein is a type I integral membrane protein that is uniformly distributed on the surface of infected nonpolarized cells and localizes to the apical plasma membrane of polarized epithelial cells. We expressed wild-type or altered RSV F proteins to gain a better understanding of secretory transport and plasma membrane targeting of type I membrane proteins in polarized and nonpolarized epithelial cells. Our findings reveal a novel, orientation-independent apical plasma membrane targeting function for the transmembrane domain of the RSV F protein in polarized epithelial cells. This work provides a basis for a more complete understanding of the role of the transmembrane domain and cytoplasmic tail of viral type I integral membrane proteins in secretory transport and plasma membrane targeting in polarized and nonpolarized cells.  相似文献

New COP1-binding motifs involved in ER retrieval.   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Coatomer-mediated sorting of proteins is based on the physical interaction between coatomer (COP1) and targeting motifs found in the cytoplasmic domains of membrane proteins. For example, binding of COP1 to dilysine (KKXX) motifs induces specific retrieval of tagged proteins from the Golgi back to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Making use of the two-hybrid system, we characterized a new sequence (deltaL) which interacts specifically with the delta-COP subunit of the COP1 complex. Transfer of deltaL to the cytoplasmic domain of a reporter membrane protein resulted in its localization in the ER, in yeast and mammalian cells. This was due to continuous retrieval of tagged proteins from the Golgi back to the ER, in a manner similar to the ER retrieval of KKXX-tagged proteins. Extensive mutagenesis of deltaL identified an aromatic residue as a critical determinant of the interaction with COP1. Similar COP1-binding motifs containing an essential aromatic residue were identified in the cytoplasmic domain of an ER-resident protein, Sec71p, and in an ER retention motif previously characterized in the CD3epsilon chain of the T-cell receptor. These results emphasize the role of the COP1 complex in retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport and highlight its functional similarity with clathrin-adaptor complexes.  相似文献

Defects in ankyrin underlie many hereditary disorders involving the mislocalization of membrane proteins. Such phenotypes are usually attributed to ankyrin's role in stabilizing a plasma membrane scaffold, but this assumption may not be accurate. We found in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells and in other cultured cells that the 25-residue ankyrin-binding sequence of alpha(1)-Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase facilitates the entry of alpha(1),beta(1)-Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase into the secretory pathway and that replacement of the cytoplasmic domain of vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSV-G) with this ankyrin-binding sequence bestows ankyrin dependency on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi trafficking of VSV-G. Expression of the ankyrin-binding sequence of alpha(1)-Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alone as a soluble cytosolic peptide acts in trans to selectively block ER to Golgi transport of both wild-type alpha(1)-Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and a VSV-G fusion protein that includes the ankyrin-binding sequence, whereas the trafficking of other proteins remains unaffected. Similar phenotypes are also generated by small hairpin RNA-mediated knockdown of ankyrin R or the depletion of ankyrin in semipermeabilized cells. These data indicate that the adapter protein ankyrin acts not only at the plasma membrane but also early in the secretory pathway to facilitate the intracellular trafficking of alpha(1)-Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and presumably other selected proteins. This novel ankyrin-dependent assembly pathway suggests a mechanism whereby hereditary disorders of ankyrin may be manifested as diseases of membrane protein ER retention or mislocalization.  相似文献

Heterotrimeric G proteins are lipid-modified, peripheral membrane proteins that function at the inner surface of the plasma membrane (PM) to relay signals from cell-surface receptors to downstream effectors. Cellular trafficking pathways that direct nascent G proteins to the PM are poorly defined. In this report, we test the proposal that G proteins utilize the classical exocytic pathway for PM targeting. PM localization of the G protein heterotrimers alpha s beta 1 gamma 2 and alpha q beta 1 gamma 2 occurred independently of treatment of cells with Brefeldin A, which disrupts the Golgi, or expression of Sar1 mutants, which prevent the formation of endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi transport vesicles. Moreover, the palmitoylation of alpha q was unaffected by Brefeldin A treatment, even though the palmitoylation of SNAP25 was blocked by Brefeldin A. Non-palmitoylated mutants of alpha s and alpha q failed to stably bind to beta gamma and displayed a dispersed cytoplasmic localization when co-expressed with beta gamma. These findings support a refined model of the PM trafficking pathway of G proteins, involving assembly of the heterotrimer at the endoplasmic reticulum and transport to the PM independently of the Golgi.  相似文献
