چکیده

The ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) GTP-binding proteins have been implicated in a wide range of vesicle transport and fusion steps along the secretory pathway. In chromaffin cells, ARF6 is specifically associated with the membrane of secretory chromaffin granules. Since ARF6 is an established regulator of phospholipase D (PLD), we have examined the intracellular distribution of ARF6 and PLD activity in resting and stimulated chromaffin cells. We found that stimulation of intact chromaffin cells or direct elevation of cytosolic calcium in permeabilized cells triggered the rapid translocation of ARF6 from secretory granules to the plasma membrane and the concomitant activation of PLD in the plasma membrane. To probe the existence of an ARF6-dependent PLD in chromaffin cells, we measured the PLD activity in purified plasma membranes. PLD could be activated by a nonhydrolyzable analogue of GTP and by recombinant myristoylated ARF6 and inhibited by specific anti-ARF6 antibodies. Furthermore, a synthetic myristoylated peptide corresponding to the N-terminal domain of ARF6 inhibited both PLD activity and catecholamine secretion in calcium-stimulated chromaffin cells. The possibility that ARF6 participates in the exocytotic reaction by controlling a plasma membrane-bound PLD and thereby generating fusogenic lipids at the exocytotic sites is discussed.

Calcium-regulated exocytosis of dense-core vesicles requires the activation of ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF)6 by ARF nucleotide binding site opener at the plasma membrane

The ADP ribosylation factor (ARF) GTP binding proteins are believed to mediate cytoskeletal remodeling and vesicular trafficking along the secretory pathway. Here we show that ARF6 is specifically associated with dense-core secretory granules in neuroendocrine PC12 cells. Stimulation with a secretagogue triggers the recruitment of secretory granules to the cell periphery and the concomitant act...

SCAMP2 interacts with Arf6 and phospholipase D1 and links their function to exocytotic fusion pore formation in PC12 cells.

SNAP receptor (SNARE)-mediated fusion is regarded as a core event in exocytosis. Exocytosis is supported by other proteins that set up SNARE interactions between secretory vesicle and plasma membranes or facilitate fusion pore formation. Secretory carrier membrane proteins (SCAMPs) are candidate proteins for functioning in these events. In neuroendocrine PC12 cells, SCAMP2 colocalizes on the ce...

GAP-43 controls the availability of secretory chromaffin granules for regulated exocytosis by stimulating a granule-associated G0.

Besides having a role in signal transduction, heterotrimeric G proteins may also be involved in membrane trafficking events as suggested by their presence in specific intracellular compartments. In chromaffin cells, G alpha 0 is associated with secretory organelles, and its activation inhibits exocytosis. Although plasma membrane-bound G proteins are activated by cell-surface receptors, the int...

Phospholipases D1 and D2 regulate different phases of exocytosis in mast cells.

The rat mast cell line RBL-2H3 contains both phospholipase D (PLD)1 and PLD2. Previous studies with this cell line indicated that expressed PLD1 and PLD2 are both strongly activated by stimulants of secretion. We now show by use of PLDs tagged with enhanced green fluorescent protein that PLD1, which is largely associated with secretory granules, redistributes to the plasma membrane in stimulate...
