چکیده

cDNA encoding the 20-kD subunit of coatomer, zeta-COP, predicts a protein of 177-amino acid residues, similar in sequence to AP17 and AP19, subunits of the clathrin adaptor complexes. Polyclonal antibody directed to zeta-COP blocks the binding of coatomer to Golgi membranes and prevents the assembly of COP-coated vesicles on Golgi cisternae. Unlike other coatomer subunits (beta-, beta'-, gamma-, and epsilon-COP), zeta-COP exists in both coatomer bound and free pools.

Architecture of coatomer: molecular characterization of delta-COP and protein interactions within the complex

Coatomer is a cytosolic protein complex that forms the coat of COP I-coated transport vesicles. In our attempt to analyze the physical and functional interactions between its seven subunits (coat proteins, [COPs] alpha-zeta), we engaged in a program to clone and characterize the individual coatomer subunits. We have now cloned, sequenced, and overexpressed bovine alpha-COP, the 135-kD subunit o...

Binding of coatomer to Golgi membranes requires ADP-ribosylation factor.

Coatomer, a complex of seven proteins, appears to be the precursor of the coat structure of non-clathrin-coated Golgi-derived vesicles. Another component of this vesicle coat is the cytosolic protein ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF). Like coatomer, ARF appears to reversibly associate with Golgi membranes. We now report that ARF is required for coatomer binding to Golgi membranes and that myristoyl...

En bloc incorporation of coatomer subunits during the assembly of COP- coated vesicles [published erratum appears in J Cell Biol 1994 Jul;126(2):589]

The cDNA encoding epsilon-COP, the 36-kD subunit of coatomer, was cloned from a bovine liver cDNA library and sequenced. Immunoblotting with an anti-epsilon-COP antibody showed that epsilon-COP exists in COP-coated vesicles as well as in the cytosolic coatomer. Using the cloned cDNA, recombinant His6- tagged epsilon-COP was overexpressed in cultured Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, from which...

α2-COP is involved in early secretory traffic in Arabidopsis and is required for plant growth

COP (coat protein) I-coated vesicles mediate intra-Golgi transport and retrograde transport from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum. These vesicles form through the action of the small GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) and the COPI heptameric protein complex (coatomer), which consists of seven subunits (α-, β-, β'-, γ-, δ-, ε- and ζ-COP). In contrast to mammals and yeast, several isof...

Differential localization of coatomer complex isoforms within the Golgi apparatus.

Coatomer, the coat protein of coat protein complex (COP)I-vesicles, is a soluble protein complex made up of seven subunits, alpha-, beta-, beta'-, gamma-, delta-, epsilon-, and zeta-COP. Higher eukaryotes have two paralogous versions of the gamma- and zeta- subunits, termed gamma1- and gamma2-COP and zeta1- and zeta2-COP. Different combinations of these subunits are known to exist within coatom...
