Making COPII Coats

نویسنده

چکیده

Newly synthesized proteins en route to the Golgi apparatus are exported from the endoplasmic reticulum by COPII coated vesicles. Fath et al. (2007) now reveal the structure of a large portion of the yeast Sec13/31 complex, which comprises the coat framework of COPII-coated vesicles. Their findings suggest a mechanism by which the COPII cage assembles and accommodates cargo of different sizes.

Copy Coats: COPI Mimics Clathrin and COPII

The assembly of COPI into a cage-like lattice sculpts membrane vesicles that transport cargo from the Golgi apparatus. Now, Lee and Goldberg (2010) present X-ray crystal structures of COPI suggesting that these coats combine selected features of two other archetypal coats, clathrin and COPII.

TANGO1 builds a machine for collagen export by recruiting and spatially organizing COPII, tethers and membranes

Collagen export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) requires TANGO1, COPII coats, and retrograde fusion of ERGIC membranes. How do these components come together to produce a transport carrier commensurate with the bulky cargo collagen? TANGO1 is known to form a ring that corrals COPII coats, and we show here how this ring or fence is assembled. Our data reveal that a TANGO1 ring is organized b...

Both Layers of the COPII Coat Come into View

Anterograde transport in the early secretory pathway is mediated by COPII-coated vesicles. Stagg et al. (2008) have now visualized the double-layered COPII coat using electron cryomicroscopy, providing insight into how coats are assembled to accommodate cargo of different sizes.

Sequential coupling between COPII and COPI vesicle coats in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi transport

COPI and COPII are vesicle coat complexes whose assembly is regulated by the ARF1 and Sar1 GTPases, respectively. We show that COPI and COPII coat complexes are recruited separately and independently to ER (COPII), pre-Golgi (COPI, COPII), and Golgi (COPI) membranes of mammalian cells. To address their individual roles in ER to Golgi transport, we used stage specific in vitro transport assays t...

TANGO1 assembles into rings around COPII coats at ER exit sites

TANGO1 (transport and Golgi organization 1) interacts with CTAGE5 and COPII components Sec23/Sec24 and recruits ERGIC-53 (endoplasmic reticulum [ER]-Golgi intermediate compartment 53)-containing membranes to generate a mega-transport carrier for export of collagens and apolipoproteins from the ER. We now show that TANGO1, at the ER, assembles in a ring that encircles COPII components. The C-ter...
