Membrane Trafficking: An Endosome Tether Meets a Rab and Collapses
Long-range tethering is a ubiquitous recognition event preceding membrane fusion. A new study shows that Rab GTPase binding causes 'entropic collapse' of the coiled-coil endosome tether EEA1, driving membrane apposition and facilitating short-range interactions required for fusion.
متن کاملMigraine meets membrane trafficking.
Having a drug that works clinically, but without a clear mechanism, is like having a key that can be tried on many doors—eventually one will open, but what will be found? The paper by Burstein and colleagues (1) in this issue of Cephalalgia describes an unexpected connection between migraine and membrane trafficking associated with mechanical pain. In an elegant series of experiments, they show...
متن کاملMultivalent Rab interactions determine tether-mediated membrane fusion
Membrane fusion at endomembranes requires cross-talk between Rab GTPases and tethers to drive SNARE-mediated lipid bilayer mixing. Several tethers have multiple Rab-binding sites with largely untested function. Here we dissected the lysosomal HOPS complex as a tethering complex with just two binding sites for the Rab7-like Ypt7 protein to determine their relevance for fusion. Using tethering an...
متن کاملThe neurotrophin receptor signaling endosome: Where trafficking meets signaling.
Neurons are the largest cells in the body and form subcellular compartments such as axons and dendrites. During both development and adulthood building blocks must be continually trafficked long distances to maintain the different regions of the neuron. Beyond building blocks, signaling complexes are also transported, allowing for example, axons to communicate with the soma. The critical roles ...
متن کاملAn endosome-to-plasma membrane pathway involved in trafficking of a mutant plasma membrane ATPase in yeast.
The plasma membrane ATPase, encoded by PMA1, is delivered to the cell surface via the secretory pathway. Previously, we characterized a temperature-sensitive pma1 mutant in which newly synthesized Pma1-7 is not delivered to the plasma membrane but is mislocalized instead to the vacuole at 37 degrees C. Several vps mutants, which are defective in vacuolar protein sorting, suppress targeting-defe...
