Structure of the Sec23p/24p and Sec13p/31p complexes of COPII.

چکیده
COPII-coated vesicles carry proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. This vesicular transport can be reconstituted by using three cytosolic components containing five proteins: the small GTPase Sar1p, the Sec23p/24p complex, and the Sec13p/Sec31p complex. We have used a combination of biochemistry and electron microscopy to investigate the molecular organization and structure of Sec23p/24p and Sec13p/31p complexes. The three-dimensional reconstruction of Sec23p/24p reveals that it has a bone-shaped structure, (17 nm in length), composed of two similar globular domains, one corresponding to Sec23p and the other to Sec24p. Sec13p/31p is a heterotetramer composed of two copies of Sec13p and two copies of Sec31p. It has an elongated shape, is 28-30 nm in length, and contains five consecutive globular domains linked by relatively flexible joints. Putting together the architecture of these Sec complexes with the interactions between their subunits and the appearance of the coat in COPII-coated vesicles, we present a model for COPII coat organization.

Lst1p and Sec24p Cooperate in Sorting of the Plasma Membrane Atpase into Copii Vesicles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Formation of ER-derived protein transport vesicles requires three cytosolic components, a small GTPase, Sar1p, and two heterodimeric complexes, Sec23/24p and Sec13/31p, which comprise the COPII coat. We investigated the role of Lst1p, a Sec24p homologue, in cargo recruitment into COPII vesicles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A tagged version of Lst1p was purified and eluted as a heterodimer compl...
متن کاملSecretory Cargo Regulates the Turnover of COPII Subunits at Single ER Exit Sites
The COPII coat complex mediates the formation of transport carriers at specialized sites of the endoplasmic reticulum (ERES). It consists of the Sar1p GTPase and the Sec23/24p and the Sec13/31p subcomplexes . Both stimulate the GTPase activity of Sar1p , which itself triggers coat disassembly. This built-in GAP activity makes the COPII complex in principle unstable and raises the question of ho...
متن کاملSelective protein exit from yeast endoplasmic reticulum in absence of functional COPII coat component Sec13p.
Sec13p has been thought to be an essential component of the COPII coat, required for exit of proteins from the yeast endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We show herein that normal function of Sec13p was not required for ER exit of the Hsp150 glycoprotein. Hsp150 was secreted to the medium under restrictive conditions in a sec13-1 mutant. The COPII components Sec23p and Sec31p and the GTP/GDP exchange f...
متن کاملGTP/GDP exchange by Sec12p enables COPII vesicle bud formation on synthetic liposomes.
The generation of COPII vesicles from synthetic liposome membranes requires the minimum coat components Sar1p, Sec23/24p, Sec13/31p, and a nonhydrolyzable GTP analog such as GMP-PNP. However, in the presence of GTP and the full complement of coat subunits, nucleotide hydrolysis by Sar1p renders the coat insufficiently stable to sustain vesicle budding. In order to recapitulate a more authentic,...
متن کاملCOPII-Coated Vesicle Formation Reconstituted with Purified Coat Proteins and Chemically Defined Liposomes
COPII vesicle formation requires only three coat assembly subunits: Sar1p, Sec13/31p, and Sec23/24p. PI 4-phosphate or PI 4,5-bisphosphate is required for the binding of these proteins to liposomes. The GTP-bound form of Sar1p recruits Sec23/24p to the liposomes as well as to the ER membranes, and this Sar1p-Sec23/24p complex is required for the binding of Sec13/31p. Ultrastructural analysis sh...
