چکیده

Previous studies have shown that inhibition of a Golgi-complex-associated lysophospholipid acyltransferase (LPAT) activity by the drug CI-976 stimulates Golgi tubule formation and subsequent redistribution of resident Golgi proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here, we show that CI-976 stimulates tubule formation from all subcompartments of the Golgi complex, and often these tubules formed independently, i.e. individual tubules usually did not contain markers from different subcompartments. Whereas the cis, medial and trans Golgi membranes redistributed to the ER, the trans Golgi network (TGN) collapsed back to a compact juxtanuclear position similar to that seen with brefeldin A (BFA) treatment. Also similar to BFA, CI-976 induced the formation of endosome tubules, but unlike BFA, these tubules did not fuse with TGN tubules. Finally, CI-976 produced an apparently irreversible block in the endocytic recycling pathway of transferrin (Tf) and Tf receptors (TfRs) but had no direct effect on Tf uptake from the cell surface. Tf and TfRs accumulated in centrally located, Rab11-positive vesicles indicating that CI-976 inhibits export of cargo from the central endocytic recycling compartment. These results, together with previous studies, demonstrate that CI-976 inhibits multiple membrane trafficking steps, including ones found in the endocytic and secretory pathways, and imply a wider role for lysophospholipid acyltransferases in membrane trafficking.

Rab11 in Disease Progression

Membrane/ protein trafficking in the secretory/ biosynthetic and endocytic pathways is mediated by vesicles. Vesicle trafficking in eukaryotes is regulated by a class of small monomeric GTPases the Rab protein family. Rab proteins represent the largest branch of the Ras superfamily GTPases, and have been concerned in a variety of intracellular vesicle trafficking and different intracellular sig...

Subversion of the Endocytic and Secretory Pathways by Bacterial Effector Proteins

Intracellular bacteria have developed numerous strategies to hijack host vesicular trafficking pathways to form their unique replicative niches. To promote intracellular replication, the bacteria must interact with host organelles and modulate host signaling pathways to acquire nutrients and membrane for the growing parasitophorous vacuole all while suppressing activation of the immune response...

Rab GTPases: master regulators that establish the secretory and endocytic pathways

Several of the most important discoveries in the field of membrane traffic have come from studies of Rab GTPases by Marino Zerial and Peter Novick and their colleagues. Zerial was the first to discover that Rab GTPases represent identity markers for different membrane-bound compartments, and each Rab organizes a collection of specific effectors into function-specifying membrane microdomains to ...

X11alpha modulates secretory and endocytic trafficking and metabolism of amyloid precursor protein: mutational analysis of the YENPTY sequence.

The neuronal adaptor X11alpha interacts with the conserved -GYENPTY- sequence in the C-terminus of amyloid precursor protein (APP) or its Swedish mutation (APPswe) to inhibit Abeta40 and Abeta42 secretion. We hypothesized that the -YENP- motif essential for APP endocytosis is also essential for X11alpha-mediated effects on APP trafficking and metabolism, and that X11alpha modulates APP metaboli...

Expression of cocoa genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae improves cocoa butter production

BACKGROUND Cocoa butter (CB) extracted from cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao) is the main raw material for chocolate production, but CB supply is insufficient due to the increased chocolate demand and limited CB production. CB is mainly composed of three different kinds of triacylglycerols (TAGs), 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-oleoyl-glycerol (POP, C16:0-C18:1-C16:0), 1-palmitoyl-3-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-glycerol (...
