Galactosylated BSA (galBSA) and its conjugate to horseradish peroxidase (galBSA-HRP) enter the galactose-specific pathway of hepatocytes. 10 min after intravenous injection, structures containing either ligand sediment mostly between 33,000 and 3 X 10(6) g X min (LP fraction) and have an equilibrium density of 1.11-1.13 g/ml in sucrose gradients (Quintart, J., P. J. Courtoy, J. N. Limet, and P. Baudhuin, 1983, Eur. J. Biochem., 131:105-112). Such low density fractions, prepared from rats given galBSA-HRP, were incubated for 30 min at 25 degrees C in 5.5 mM 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB) and 11 mM H2O2 in buffered sucrose. Upon equilibration in a second sucrose gradient, the galBSA-HRP distribution shifted towards higher (approximately 1.19 g/ml) density, but the bulk of protein remained at low density. In the absence of H2O2, galBSA-HRP distribution was also found at low density. As observed by electron microscopy, particles equilibrating at higher density after DAB cytochemistry were largely made of vesicles or tubules filled with DAB reaction product. The density shift of galBSA-HRP-containing organelles after incubation with DAB and H2O2 is attributed to the trapping of HRP- oxidized DAB inside the host organelles. If the low density fractions isolated from a rat injected with [3H]galBSA-HRP were mixed in vitro with similar fractions from another rat given [14C]galBSA, the 3H distribution shifted after DAB cytochemistry, but the 14C distribution was essentially unaffected. By contrast, if both derivatives were injected simultaneously, a concomitant density shift was observed. In conclusion, the DAB-induced density shift was specific to ligand-HRP- containing organelles. The potentials of the method include the purification of HRP-containing particles and the study of their association to ligands, fluid-phase tracers, or marker enzymes. 相似文献

We present here a mathematical model that accounts for the various proportions of plasma membrane constituents occurring in the lysosomal membrane of rat fibroblasts (Draye, J.-P., J. Quintart, P. J. Courtoy, and P. Baudhuin. 1987. Eur. J. Biochem. 170: 395-403; Draye, J.-P., P. J. Courtoy, J. Quintart, and P. Baudhuin. 1987. Eur. J. Biochem. 170:405-411). It is based on contents of plasma membrane markers in purified lysosomal preparations, evaluations of their half-life in lysosomes and measurements of areas of lysosomal and plasma membranes by morphometry. In rat fibroblasts, structures labeled by a 2-h uptake of horseradish peroxidase followed by a 16-h chase (i.e., lysosomes) occupy 3% of the cellular volume and their total membrane area corresponds to 30% of the pericellular membrane area. Based on the latter values, the model predicts the rate of inflow and outflow of plasma membrane constituents into lysosomal membrane, provided their rate of degradation is known. Of the bulk of polypeptides iodinated at the cell surface, only 4% reach the lysosomes every hour, where the major part (integral of 83%) is degraded with a half-life in lysosomes of integral to 0.8 h. For specific plasma membrane constituents, this model can further account for differences in the association to the lysosomal membrane by variations in the rate either of lysosomal degradation, of inflow along the pathway from the pericellular membrane to the lysosomes, or of lateral diffusion. 相似文献

Three discrete endosomal fractions showing a time-dependent uptake of radioactive ligand were partially purified from rat liver. The 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB)-induced density-shift protocol of Courtoy, Quintart & Baudhuin [(1984) J. Cell Biol. 98, 870-876] was used to study the distribution among these three endosomal fractions of two ligands with different intracellular destinations. Rats received both 125I-asialo-orosomucoid-horseradish peroxidase (125I-ASOR-HRP) and 131I-dIgA simultaneously by intraportal injection. The liver was fractionated at various times after injection, the three ligand-containing endosomal fractions (A, B and C) were separated and each was subjected separately to the DAB-induced density-shift procedure in which only vesicles containing 125I-ASOR-HRP are increased in density. Information on whether 131I-dIgA was co-localized or segregated from 125I-ASOR-HRP was obtained. The two ligands in the A fraction were partly segregated and partly co-localized, and this distribution appeared to be relatively unchanged with time. The two ligands in the B fraction were co-localized at all times studied. We have tentatively identified the B fraction as a compartment in which vesicle fusion has occurred. The two ligands in the C fraction were also partly co-localized and partly segregated, but the 131I-dIgA became increasingly segregated with time. This represents the first report of the purification of an endosomal subfraction specifically involved in the accumulation of multiple ligands. 相似文献

Chicken liver plasma membranes, minimally contaminated with Golgi apparatus-derived vesicles, were prepared from a low-speed (400 g) pellet by means of flotation in isotonic Percoll solution, followed by a hypotonic wash and flotation in a discontinuous sucrose gradient. Based on the analysis of suitable marker enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and alkaline phosphodiesterase, two plasma membrane fractions were isolated with enrichments, depending on the equilibrium density and marker of 28-97 and with a total yield of 4-5%. Golgi apparatus fractions were prepared by flotation of microsomes, obtained from the same homogenate as the low-speed pellet, in a discontinuous sucrose gradient. The trans-Golgi marker galactosyltransferase was 27-fold enriched in a fraction of intermediate density (d=1.077-1.116 g/ml). Approximately 12% of galactosyltransferase was recovered in the membranes equilibrating d=1.031-1.148 g/ml. Contamination with plasma membrane fragments was low in the light (d=1.031-1.077 g/ml) and intermediate density Golgi vesicles. The isolation of purified plasma membranes and Golgi vesicles from one liver homogenate will enable future studies on receptor cycling between these cell organelles. 相似文献

Relations between plasma membrane and lysosomal membrane. 2. Quantitative evaluation of plasma membrane marker enzymes in the lysosomes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We have quantified, in cultured rat fibroblasts, the association to the lysosomal membrane of two classical plasma membrane markers, 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphodiesterase I. To isolate highly purified lysosomal preparations, lysosomes were loaded with horseradish peroxidase (2-h cell uptake, 16-h chase) and isolated by isopycnic centrifugation in linear Percoll gradients, followed by a 3,3'-diaminobenzidine-induced density shift in sucrose gradients. Purified lysosomal preparations contained up to 50% of N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase of the homogenate. This lysosomal enzyme was enriched 33-fold in the most purified preparations. In the electron microscope, these preparations appeared to be highly purified and only contained organelles filled with diaminobenzidine reaction products. Analysis of purified preparations indicates that 0.5-0.8% of 5'-nucleotidase, but as much as 10.9-14.3% of alkaline phosphodiesterase I activities of the homogenate, are associated with lysosomes. After freezing-thawing, these activities remained essentially membrane-associated. The larger value obtained for alkaline phosphodiesterase I could not be ascribed to other lysosomal enzymes, as no such activity was detected at acidic pH. These two plasma membrane markers are thus unevenly distributed in the lysosomal compartment. 相似文献

Using two independent methods, incorporation of radioactive amino-acid and quantitative immunoblotting, we have determined that the rate of synthesis of each of the Semliki Forest virus (SFV) proteins in infected baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells is 1.2 X 10(5) copies/cell/min. Given the absolute surface areas of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex presented in the companion paper (Griffiths, G., G. Warren, P. Quinn , O. Mathieu - Costello , and A. Hoppeler , 1984, J. Cell Biol. 98:2133-2141), and the approximate time spent in these organelles during their passage to the plasma membrane (Green J., G. Griffiths, D. Louvard , P. Quinn , and G. Warren 1981, J. Mol. Biol. 152:663-698), the mean density of each viral protein in these organelles can be calculated to be 90 and 750 molecules/micron 2 membrane, respectively. In contrast, we have determined that the density of total endogenous integral membrane proteins in these organelles is approximately 30,000 molecules/micron 2 so that the spike proteins constitute only 0.28 and 2.3% of total membrane protein in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi, respectively. Quantitative immunoblotting was used to give direct estimates of the concentrations of one of the viral membrane protein precursors (E1) in subcellular fractions; these agreed closely with the calculated values. The data are discussed with respect to the sorting of transported proteins from those endogenous to the intracellular membranes. 相似文献

Endosomes are prelysosomal organelles that serve as an intracellular site for the sorting, distribution, and processing of receptors, ligands, fluid phase components, and membrane proteins internalized by endocytosis. Whereas the overall functions of endosomes are increasingly understood, little is known about endosome structure, composition, or biogenesis. In this paper, we describe a rapid procedure that permits analytical and preparative isolation of endosomes from a variety of tissue culture cells. The procedure relies on a combination of density gradient centrifugation and free flow electrophoresis. It yields a fraction of highly purified, functionally intact organelles. As markers for endosomes in Chinese hamster ovary cells, we used endocytosed horseradish peroxidase, FITC-conjugated dextran, and [35S]methionine-labeled Semliki Forest virus. Total postnuclear supernatants, crude microsomal pellets, or partially purified Golgi fractions were subjected to free flow electrophoresis. Endosomes and lysosomes migrated together as a single anodally deflected peak separated from most other organelles (plasma membrane, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi). The endosomes and lysosomes were then resolved by centrifugation in Percoll density gradients. Endosomes prepared in this way were enriched up to 70-fold relative to the initial homogenate and were still capable of ATP-dependent acidification. By electron microscopy, the isolated organelles were found to consist of electron lucent vacuoles and tubules, many of which could be shown to contain an endocytic tracer (e.g., horseradish peroxidase). SDS PAGE analysis of integral and peripheral membrane proteins (separated from each other by condensation in Triton X-114) revealed a unique and restricted subset of proteins when compared with lysosomes, the unshifted free flow electrophoresis peak, and total cell protein. Altogether, the purification procedure takes 5-6 h and yields amounts of endosomes (150-200 micrograms protein) sufficient for biochemical, immunological, and functional analysis. 相似文献

Enzymatic activities associated with Golgi apparatus-, endoplasmic reticulum-, plasma membrane-, mitochondria-, and microbody-rich cell fractions isolated from rat liver were determined and used as a basis for estimating fraction purity. Succinic dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase (mitochondria) activities were low in the Golgi apparatus-rich fraction. On the basis of glucose-6-phosphatase (endoplasmic reticulum) and 5'-nucleotidase (plasma membrane) activities, the Golgi apparatus-rich fraction obtained directly from sucrose gradients was estimated to contain no more than 10% endoplasmic reticulum- and 11% plasma membrane-derived material. Total protein contribution of endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, plasma membrane, microbodies (uric acid oxidase), and lysosomes (acid phosphatase) to the Golgi apparatus-rich fraction was estimated to be no more than 20–30% and decreased to less than 10% with further washing. The results show that purified Golgi apparatus fractions isolated routinely may exceed 80% Golgi apparatus-derived material. Nucleoside di- and triphosphatase activities were enriched 2–3-fold in the Golgi apparatus fraction relative to the total homogenate, and of a total of more than 25 enzyme-substrate combinations reported, only thiamine pyrophosphatase showed a significantly greater enrichment. 相似文献

Biochemical studies of rat liver Golgi apparatus. I. Isolation and preliminary characterization. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A method is described for the isolation of morphologically well-preserved Golgi apparatus from rat liver. The method is essentially the same as that of Morré et al. (Morré, D.J., Hamilton, R.L., Mollenhauser, H.H., Mahley, R.W., Cunningham, W.P., Cheetham, R.D., & Lequire, V.S. (1970) J. Cell Biol. 44, 484-491) except that mild cell disruption is achieved by means of a stainless-steel sieve. The average recoveries of protein and galactosyltransferase in the isolated fraction are about 6 mg from 10 g of perfused liver and about 35% from the homogenate, respectively. The preparation is virtually free from succinate-cytochrome c reductase, glucose-6-phosphatase, acid phosphatase, and 5'-nucleotidase. The Golgi fraction as well as its vesicular fragments is homogeneous upon isopycnic centrifugation in both sucrose and dextran density gradients. Their buoyant densities in sucrose are significantly higher than those in dextran, indicating that both forms of the organelle are closed systems which are impermeable to macromolecules. The galactosyltransferase activity of a freshly prepared Golgi fraction, measured with ovalbumin as galactosyl acceptor, is activated 26-fold by the addition of Triton X-100, whereas those of homogenized, sonicated, and aged preparations are only activated 2- to 4-fold. 相似文献

The 17 beta-estradiol dehydrogenase of porcine endometrium was found to be localized in specialized particles. Their isolation was achieved by successive partitioning of postmitochondrial supernatants in isopycnic Percoll gradients and on sucrose gradients in a vertical rotor. The purified structures, rich in estradiol dehydrogenase, equilibrate at 1.180 g/ml in sucrose gradients, are on average 150 nm in diameter, have electron-dense cores and are studded with particles of ribosome-like appearance. They do not coequilibrate with enzymic markers for the endoplasmic reticulum (P450 enzymes and RNA), mitochondria, the Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes. The estradiol dehydrogenase activity in the isolated particles was enriched 20-fold from the homogenate. 相似文献

We have examined the distribution of mannose-6-phosphate (Man6P) receptors (215 kD) for lysosomal enzymes in cultured Clone 9 hepatocytes at various times after the addition or removal of lysosomotropic weak bases (chloroquine or NH4Cl). Our previous studies demonstrated that after treatment with these agents, Man6P receptors are depleted from their sorting site in the Golgi complex and accumulate in dilated vacuoles that could represent either endosomes or lysosomes (Brown, W. J., E. Constantinescu, and M. G. Farquhar, 1984, J. Cell Biol., 99:320-326). We have now investigated the nature of these vacuoles by labeling NH4Cl-treated cells simultaneously with anti-Man6P receptor IgG and lysosomal or endosomal markers. The structures in which the immunolabeled receptors are found were identified as endosomes based on the presence of endocytic tracers (lucifer yellow and cationized ferritin). The lysosomal membrane marker, lgp120, was associated with a separate population of swollen vacuoles that did not contain detectable Man6P receptors. When cells were allowed to recover from weak base treatment, the receptors reappeared in the Golgi cisternae of most cells (approximately 90%) within approximately 20 min, indicating that as the intra-endosomal pH drops and lysosomal enzymes dissociate, the entire population of receptors rapidly recycles to Golgi cisternae. When NH4Cl-treated cells were allowed to endocytose Man6P, a competitive inhibitor of lysosomal enzyme binding, the receptors also recycled to the Golgi cisternae, suggesting that lysosomal enzymes can dissociate from the receptors under these conditions (high pH + presence of competitive inhibitor). From these results it can be concluded that the intracellular itinerary of the 215-kD Man6P receptor involves its cycling via coated vesicles between the Golgi complex and endosomes, ligand dissociation is both necessary and sufficient to trigger the recycling of Man6P receptors to the Golgi complex, and endosomes rather than secondary lysosomes represent the junction where endocytosed material and primary lysosomes carrying receptor-bound lysosomal enzymes meet.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Previous experiments led us to speculate that thyrocytes contain a recycling system for GlcNAc-bearing immature thyroglobulin molecules which prevents these molecules from lysosomal degradation (Miquelis, R., C. Alquier, and M. Monsigny. 1987. J. Biol. Chem. 262:15291-15298). To confirm this hypothesis, the fate of GlcNAc-bearing proteins after internalization by thyrocytes was monitored and compared to that of fluid phase markers. Kinetic internalization studies were performed using 125I-GlcNAc-BSA and 131I-Man-BSA. We observed that the apparent intake rate as well as the amount of hydrolyzed GlcNAc-BSA are smaller than the corresponding values for Man-BSA. These differences were reduced by GlcNAc competitors (thyroglobulin and ovomucoid) or a weak base (chloroquine). Part of the internalized GlcNAc-BSA was released into the extracellular milieu at a higher rate and shorter half life (t1/2 = approximately 30 min) than the Man-BSA (t1/2 = approximately 8 h). Subcellular homing was first studied by cell fractionation after internalization using 125I-ovomucoid and 131I-BSA. During Percoll density gradient fractionation, endogenous thyroperoxidase was used to separate subsets of organelles involved in the biosynthetic exocytotic pathway. Incubation of the cell homogenate in the presence of DAB and H2O2 before cell fractionation give rise to a shift in the density of organelles containing 3.5 times more ovomucoid than BSA. Discontinuous sucrose gradient showed that: (a) thyroperoxidase was colocalized with galactosyltransferase-contraining organelles in Golgi-rich subfractions; and (b) that at every time studied from 10 to 100 min, the ovomucoid/BSA ratio was higher in these organelles than in other subfractions. Finally we also observed that: (a) ovomucoid sequestered in the Golgi-rich subfraction incorporated [3H]galactose; and (b) that part of internalized ovomucoid was localized on the Golgi stacks as well as elements of the trans-Golgi, as revealed by immunogold labeling on ultrathin cryosections. These data prove that in thyrocytes GlcNAc accessible sugar moieties on soluble internalized molecules are sufficient to trigger their recycling via the Golgi apparatus. 相似文献

We have recently shown that lamellar body fractions purified from human lung contain a distinct acid alpha-glucosidase distinguishable from lysosomal acid alpha-glucosidase in that it does not cross-react with antibodies raised against the lysosomal enzyme and does not bind to concanavalin A (De Vries, A.C.J., Schram, A.W., Tager, J.M., Batenburg, J.J. and Van Golde, L.M.G. (1985) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 837, 230-238). In order to study the relationship between the non-concanavalin A-binding alpha-glucosidase and lamellar bodies more closely a method was developed for the further purification of the organelles. A purified lamellar body preparation isolated from human lung homogenate by discontinuous sucrose density centrifugation was subjected to gel filtration with Sepharose 4B followed by Percoll density gradient centrifugation, which yielded a lamellar body preparation with a phospholipid phosphorus/protein ratio of 12.57 +/- 0.38 (mumol/mg) (n = 3) as compared to a ratio of 3.34 +/- 0.16 (mumol/mg) (n = 3) in the sucrose density gradient preparation. Concomitantly there was a 3.3 +/- 0.1 (n = 3)-fold enrichment in the content of total acid alpha-glucosidase and a 3.2 +/- 0.1 (n = 3) -fold enrichment of non-concanavalin A-binding acid alpha-glucosidase. The new purification method removes adhering proteins without changing the phospholipid composition. During the successive purification steps the concanavalin A-sensitive and -insensitive alpha-glucosidases remained fully lamellar body fraction associated. Differences between a lysosome-enriched fraction and a lamellar body preparation at varying stages of purification with respect to the ratio between soluble acid hydrolases and the membrane-associated lysosomal enzyme glucocerebrosidase indicate that the purified lamellar bodies were not contaminated with lysosomes. The absence of lysosomes in the purified lamellar body fraction was confirmed by experiments with the weak base glycyl-L-phenylalanine-beta-naphthylamide, which is an artificial substrate for the lysosomal enzyme cathepsin C and brings about lysis of lysosomes. Morphological examination by electron microscopy endorses the absence of contaminating vesicles and organelles and showed a structural integrity of the lamellar bodies in the final preparation. The improved isolation procedure strongly suggests that the concanavalin A-insensitive acid alpha-glucosidase is endogenous to lamellar bodies and supports our earlier idea that it can be used as a lamellar body-specific marker enzyme. In addition, the experiments show that lamellar bodies free of lysosomes contain a spectrum of lysosomal-type enzymes. 相似文献

Rapid Preparation of a Distinct Lysosomal Population from Myelinating Mouse Brain Using Percoll Gradients 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

To study the vesicular lysosome-associated transport and the metabolism of some brain macromolecules (in particular, sialoglycoconjugates), we developed a rapid procedure to obtain a distinct lysosomal population starting from myelinating mouse brain. This procedure is based on an initial differential centrifugation step producing a 1,000-17,500-g fraction (P2), followed by isopycnic centrifugation of fraction P2 on a self-generated colloidal silica gel (Percoll) gradient. The heaviest subfraction thus obtained is very rich in acid hydrolase activities like beta-galactosidase, arylsulfatase A, and acid phosphatase. The enrichment of these enzymes is approximately 100-fold as compared with the starting homogenate, whereas the markers of other subcellular organelles, such as mitochondria, plasma membranes, or the Golgi apparatus, are virtually absent. The lysosomal preparation contains approximately 12-14% of the total acid hydrolase activities, with a protein yield of approximately 0.12%. Electron microscopy shows that the lysosomal fraction is composed of an approximately 90% pure population of lysosomes. Therefore, the procedure described here is suitable for obtaining a highly purified lysosome preparation from myelinating mouse brain. 相似文献

To facilitate the purification of rat liver autophagosomes, isolated rat hepatocytes are first incubated for 2 h at 37°C with vinblastine, which induces autophagosome accumulation by blocking the fusion of these organelles with endosomes and lysosomes. The hepatocytes are then electrodisrupted and homogenized, and the various cellular organelles sequentially removed by subcellular fractionation. A brief incubation of the homogenate with the cathepsin C substrate, glycyl-phenylalanine-naphthylamide (GPN), causes rapid osmotic disruption of the lysosomes due to intralysosomal accumulation of GPN cleavage products. Nuclei are removed by differential centrifugation, and the postnuclear supernatant subsequently fractionated on a two-step Nycodenz density gradient. Autophagosomes are recovered in an intermediate density fraction, free from cytosol and mitochondria. The autophagosomes are finally separated from the membranes and vesicles of the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, endosomes, etc. by sieving through a density gradient of colloidal silica particles (Percoll). The final preparation contains about 95% autophagosomes and 5% amphisomes according to morphological and biochemical criteria. 相似文献

Osteoclasts generate a massive acid flux to mobilize bone calcium. Local extracellular acidification is carried out by vacuolar type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) localized in the plasma membrane. We have shown that a3, one of the four subunit a isoforms (a1, a2, a3, and a4), is a component of the plasma membrane V-ATPase (Toyomura, T., Oka, T., Yamaguchi, C., Wada, Y., and Futai, M. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 8760-8765). To establish the unique localization of V-ATPase, we have used a murine macrophage cell line, RAW 264.7, that can differentiate into multinuclear osteoclast-like cells on stimulation with RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand). The V-ATPase with the a3 isoform was localized to late endosomes and lysosomes, whereas those with the a1 and a2 isoforms were localized to organelles other than lysosomes. After stimulation, the V-ATPase with the a3 isoform was immunochemically colocalized with lysosome marker lamp2 and was detected in acidic organelles. These organelles were also colocalized with microtubules, and the signals of lamp2 and a3 were dispersed by nocodazole, a microtubule depolymerizer. In RAW-derived osteoclasts cultured on mouse skull pieces, the a3 isoform was transported to the plasma membrane facing the bone and accumulated inside podosome rings. These findings indicate that V-ATPases with the a3 isoform localized in late endosomes/lysosomes are transported to the cell periphery during differentiation and finally assembled into the plasma membrane of mature osteoclasts. 相似文献

A rapid procedure for isolating hemopoietic cell nuclei 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A new method for isolating cell nuclei is described which involves freezing and thawing cells in 2% Tween 40, then gentle homogenization to release nuclei, followed by immediate microcentrifugation through 50% sucrose. Purified nuclei were obtained in 3 min and yields of 78-95% were obtained from a variety of human hemopoietic cells. Electron microscope analysis of nuclei obtained from HL60 cells showed that 89% of the nuclei were intact and have an appropriate morphology. A low level of contamination with other organelles was revealed by electron microscopy and by using specific assays for plasma membrane, mitochondria, lysosomes, Golgi membrane, and endoplasmic reticulum (0.5-5.5%). The value of the technique is that nuclear proteins and small metabolites which might be lost by rapid leakage from isolated nuclei and the possibility of biochemical modification of cellular constituents are minimized by using a rapid isolation procedure. 相似文献

Dynactin is a multisubunit complex that plays an accessory role in cytoplasmic dynein function. Overexpression in mammalian cells of one dynactin subunit, dynamitin, disrupts the complex, resulting in dissociation of cytoplasmic dynein from prometaphase kinetochores, with consequent perturbation of mitosis (Echeverri, C.J., B.M. Paschal, K.T. Vaughan, and R.B. Vallee. 1996. J. Cell Biol. 132:617–634). Based on these results, dynactin was proposed to play a role in linking cytoplasmic dynein to kinetochores and, potentially, to membrane organelles. The current study reports on the dynamitin interphase phenotype. In dynamitin-overexpressing cells, early endosomes (labeled with antitransferrin receptor), as well as late endosomes and lysosomes (labeled with anti–lysosome-associated membrane protein-1 [LAMP-1]), were redistributed to the cell periphery. This redistribution was disrupted by nocodazole, implicating an underlying plus end–directed microtubule motor activity. The Golgi stack, monitored using sialyltransferase, galactosyltransferase, and N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I, was dramatically disrupted into scattered structures that colocalized with components of the intermediate compartment (ERGIC-53 and ERD-2). The disrupted Golgi elements were revealed by EM to represent short stacks similar to those formed by microtubule-depolymerizing agents. Golgi-to-ER traffic of stack markers induced by brefeldin A was not inhibited by dynamitin overexpression. Time-lapse observations of dynamitin-overexpressing cells recovering from brefeldin A treatment revealed that the scattered Golgi elements do not undergo microtubule-based transport as seen in control cells, but rather, remain stationary at or near their ER exit sites. These results indicate that dynactin is specifically required for ongoing centripetal movement of endocytic organelles and components of the intermediate compartment. Results similar to those of dynamitin overexpression were obtained by microinjection with antidynein intermediate chain antibody, consistent with a role for dynactin in mediating interactions of cytoplasmic dynein with specific membrane organelles. These results suggest that dynamitin plays a pivotal role in regulating organelle movement at the level of motor–cargo binding. 相似文献

J774.2 macrophages cultured in medium containing 10 mg/ml sucrose accumulate the sugar by pinocytosis and become highly vacuolated, due to the sugar's osmotic effect within the vacuolar compartment. When such cells are incubated in medium containing 0.5 mg/ml invertase, the enzyme reaches the sucrose vacuoles by pinocytosis, then cleaves the sugar to more permeant monosaccharides. Within 4 hours, the vacuoles shrink to smaller, phase-dense organelles (Cohn and Ehrenreich, 1969, J. Exp. Med., 129:201). We have used this reversible expansion of the lysosomal compartment to address two questions: (1) Does the increased size of the lysosomal compartment affect pinocytic accumulation of solute, and (2) what is the fate of the vacuolar membrane and its soluble content during invertase-induced vacuole shrinkage? Using lucifer yellow (LY) as a probe for pinocytic fluid influx and efflux, we found that vacuolated cells accumulated 30–50% less LY than controls and returned to higher rates of pinocytosis after invertase-induced vacuole shrinkage. A similar reduction in LY accumulation was achieved after feeding cells latex beads to increase the size of the lysosomal compartment. Thus, treatments that increased the size of the lysosomal compartment reduced solute accumulation via pinocytosis. A dramatic shrinkage of LY-containing sucrose vacuoles followed pinocytosis of invertase. Despite this reduction in size of the LY-containing vacuoles, the overall rate of LY efflux did not increase significantly during invertase-induced vacuole collapse. Electron microscopy revealed that during shrinkage, the excess vacuolar membrane was compressed into whorled membranous organelles (residual bodies), with fluid markers (colloidal gold and, by inference, LY) trapped inside. The trapping of LY inside lysosomes as J774.2 macrophages returned to their normal dimensions indicates that nearly all of the surplus membrane contents were removed from circulation as well. 相似文献

It has been shown in mammalian systems that the passage of transferrin-colloidal gold (Tf-Au) through the endocytic system is influenced by the size of the gold colloid (Neutra, M. R. et al., J. Histochem. Cytochem. 33, 1134-1144 (1985); Woods, J. W. et al., Eur. J. Cell Biol. 50, 132-143 (1989)). However, in both Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Trypanosoma congolense, widely varying sizes of Tf-Au (Tf-Au5 and Tf-Au15) have been shown to proceed to lysosomes (Webster, P., Eur. J. Cell Biol. 49, 295-302 (1989); Webster, P., D. Grab, J. Cell Biol. 106, 279-288 (1988)). Using an affinity-purified anti-bovine transferrin IgG we have demonstrated that, in both T. brucei and T. congolense, native transferrin, like Tf-Au, is found in the flagellar pocket, coated vesicles, tubular structures, and lysosome-like organelles where it appears to be concentrated. The presence of Tf in the lysosomes was confirmed in colocalization experiments using T. congolense, where native bovine transferrin colocalized with a trypanosome lysosomal marker, a cysteine protease. The data suggest that, unlike the situation in mammalian cells where most transferrin is recycled to the cell surface, in African trypanosomes transferrin is routed into lysosomes and may not, therefore, be recycled. 相似文献
