Team Effort by TRAPP Forces a Nucleotide Fumble

چکیده
TRAPPI is a multisubunit protein complex on the Golgi that activates the small GTPase Ypt1p to facilitate the receipt of transport vesicles inbound from the endoplasmic reticulum. Cai et al. (2008) now present structural and biochemical analyses of yeast TRAPPI in a complex with Ypt1p revealing a unique mechanism by which TRAPPI catalyzes guanine nucleotide exchange.

The TRAPP complex is a nucleotide exchanger for Ypt1 and Ypt31/32.
In yeast, the Ypt1 GTPase is required for ER-to-cis-Golgi and cis-to-medial-Golgi protein transport, while Ypt31/32 are a functional pair of GTPases essential for exit from the trans-Golgi. We have previously identified a Ypt1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) activity and characterized it as a large membrane-associated protein complex that localizes to the Golgi and can be extracted fro...
متن کاملTrapp Stimulates Guanine Nucleotide Exchange on Ypt1p
TRAPP, a novel complex that resides on early Golgi, mediates the targeting of ER-to-Golgi vesicles to the Golgi apparatus. Previous studies have shown that YPT1, which encodes the small GTP-binding protein that regulates membrane traffic at this stage of the secretory pathway, interacts genetically with BET3 and BET5. Bet3p and Bet5p are 2 of the 10 identified subunits of TRAPP. Here we show th...
متن کاملThe SMS domain of Trs23p is responsible for the in vitro appearance of the TRAPP I complex in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Saccharomyces cerevisiae transport protein particle (TRAPP) is a family of related multisubunit complexes required for endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi transport (TRAPP I), endosome-to-Golgi transport (TRAPP II) or cytosol to vacuole targeting (TRAPP III). To gain insight into the relationship between these complexes, we generated random and targeted mutations in the Trs23p core subunit. Remarkab...
متن کاملTrs33-Containing TRAPP IV: A Novel Autophagy-Specific Ypt1 GEF.
Ypt/Rab GTPases, key regulators of intracellular trafficking pathways, are activated by guanine-nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). Here, we identify a novel GEF complex, TRAPP IV, which regulates Ypt1-mediated autophagy. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Ypt1 GTPase is required for the initiation of secretion and autophagy, suggesting that it regulates these two distinct pathways. However...
متن کاملTRAPP Complexes in Secretion and Autophagy
TRAPP is a highly conserved modular multi-subunit protein complex. Originally identified as a "transport protein particle" with a role in endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi transport, its multiple subunits and their conservation from yeast to humans were characterized in the late 1990s. TRAPP attracted attention when it was shown to act as a Ypt/Rab GTPase nucleotide exchanger, GEF, in the 2000s. C...
