Spatial-Temporal Study of Rab1b Dynamics and Function at the ER-Golgi Interface.

ABSTRACT: The GTPase Rab1b is involved in ER to Golgi transport, with multiple Rab1b effectors (located at ERES, VTCs and the Golgi complex) being required for its function. In this study, we performed live-cell dual-expression studies to analyze the dynamics of Rab1b and some effectors located at the ERES-Golgi interface. Rab1b occupied widely distributed mobile punctate and tubular structures, displaying a transient overlaps with its effectors and showing that these overlaps occurred at the same time in spatially distinct steps of ER to Golgi transport. In addition, we assessed Rab1b dynamics during cargo sorting by analyzing the concentration at ERES of a Golgi protein (SialT2-CFP) during Brefeldin A washout (BFA WO). Rab1b was associated to most of the ERES structures, but at different times during BFA WO, and recurrently SialT2-CFP was sorted in the ERES-Rab1b positive structures. Furthermore, we reveal for first time that Rab1b localization time at ERES depended on GBF1, a Rab1b effector that acts as the guanine nucleotide exchange factor of Arf1, and that Rab1b membrane association/dissociation dynamics at ERES was dependent on the GBF1 membrane association and activity, which strongly suggests that GBF1 activity modulates Rab1b membrane cycling dynamic.

Defective RAB1B-related megakaryocytic ER-to-Golgi transport in RUNX1 haplodeficiency: impact on von Willebrand factor.

Project description:Patients with RUNX1 haplodeficiency have thrombocytopenia, platelet dysfunction, and deficiencies of α-granules and dense granules. Platelet expression profiling of a patient with a heterozygous RUNX1 mutation (c.969-323G>T) revealed decreased RAB1B, which encodes a small G protein. RAB GTPases regulate vesicle trafficking, and RAB1B is implicated in endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi transport in nonhematopoietic cells, but its role in megakaryocytes (MK) is unknown. We addressed the hypothesis that RAB1B is a transcriptional target of RUNX1 and that RAB1B regulates ER-to-Golgi transport in MK cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation studies and electrophoretic mobility shift assay using phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-treated human erythroleukemia cells revealed RUNX1 binding to RAB1B promoter region RUNX1 consensus sites, and their mutation reduced the promoter activity. RAB1B promoter activity and protein expression were inhibited by RUNX1 siRNA and enhanced by RUNX1 overexpression. These indicate that RAB1B is a direct RUNX1 target, providing a mechanism for decreased RAB1B in patient platelets. Vesicle trafficking from ER to Golgi in PMA-treated human erythroleukemia cells was impaired along with Golgi disruption on siRNA downregulation of RUNX1 or RAB1B. The effects of RUNX1 knockdown were reversed by RAB1B reconstitution. Trafficking of von Willebrand factor (vWF), an α-granule MK synthesized protein, was impaired with RUNX1 or RAB1B downregulation and reconstituted by ectopic RAB1B expression. Platelet vWF was decreased in patients with RUNX1 mutations. Thus, ER-to-Golgi transport, an early critical step in protein trafficking to granules, is impaired in megakaryocytic cells on RUNX1 downregulation, secondary to decreased RAB1B expression. Impaired RAB1B mediated ER-to-Golgi transport contributes to platelet α-granule defects in RUNX1 haplodeficiency.

Coupled transport of Arabidopsis p24 proteins at the ER-Golgi interface.

Project description:p24 proteins are a family of type I membrane proteins localized to compartments of the early secretory pathway and to coat protein I (COPI)- and COPII-coated vesicles. They can be classified, by sequence homology, into four subfamilies, named p24?, p24?, p24?, and p24?. In contrast to animals and fungi, plants contain only members of the p24? and p24? subfamilies. It has previously been shown that transiently expressed red fluorescent protein (RFP)-p24?5 localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as a consequence of highly efficient COPI-based recycling from the Golgi apparatus. Using specific antibodies, endogenous p24?5 has now been localized to the ER and p24?2 to the Golgi apparatus in Arabidopsis root tip cells by immunogold electron microscopy. The relative contributions of the cytosolic tail and the luminal domains to p24?5 trafficking have also been characterized. It is demonstrated that whereas the dilysine motif in the cytoplasmic tail determines the location of p24?5 in the early secretory pathway, the luminal domain may contribute to its distribution downstream of the Golgi apparatus. By using knock-out mutants and co-immunoprecipitation experiments, it is shown that p24?5 and p24?2 interact with each other. Finally, it is shown that p24?5 and p24?2 exhibit coupled trafficking at the ER-Golgi interface. It is proposed that p24?5 and p24?2 interact with each other at ER export sites for ER exit and coupled transport to the Golgi apparatus. Once in the Golgi, p24?5 interacts very efficiently with the COPI machinery for retrograde transport back to the ER.

Zinc homeostasis governed by Golgi-resident ZnT family members regulates ERp44-mediated proteostasis at the ER-Golgi interface.

Project description:Many secretory enzymes acquire essential zinc ions (Zn2+) in the Golgi complex. ERp44, a chaperone operating in the early secretory pathway, also binds Zn2+ to regulate its client binding and release for the control of protein traffic and homeostasis. Notably, three membrane transporter complexes, ZnT4, ZnT5/ZnT6 and ZnT7, import Zn2+ into the Golgi lumen in exchange with protons. To identify their specific roles, we here perform quantitative Zn2+ imaging using super-resolution microscopy and Zn2+-probes targeted in specific Golgi subregions. Systematic ZnT-knockdowns reveal that ZnT4, ZnT5/ZnT6 and ZnT7 regulate labile Zn2+ concentration at the distal, medial, and proximal Golgi, respectively, consistent with their localization. Time-course imaging of cells undergoing synchronized secretory protein traffic and functional assays demonstrates that ZnT-mediated Zn2+ fluxes tune the localization, trafficking, and client-retrieval activity of ERp44. Altogether, this study provides deep mechanistic insights into how ZnTs control Zn2+ homeostasis and ERp44-mediated proteostasis along the early secretory pathway.

Human Golgi phosphoprotein 3 is an effector of RAB1A and RAB1B.

Project description:Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3) is a peripheral membrane protein localized at the trans-Golgi network that is also distributed in a large cytosolic pool. GOLPH3 has been involved in several post-Golgi protein trafficking events, but its precise function at the molecular level is not well understood. GOLPH3 is also considered the first oncoprotein of the Golgi apparatus, with important roles in several types of cancer. Yet, it is unknown how GOLPH3 is regulated to achieve its contribution in the mechanisms that lead to tumorigenesis. Binding of GOLPH3 to Golgi membranes depends on its interaction to phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate. However, an early finding showed that GTP promotes the binding of GOLPH3 to Golgi membranes and vesicles. Nevertheless, it remains largely unknown whether this response is consequence of the function of GTP-dependent regulatory factors, such as proteins of the RAB family of small GTPases. Interestingly, in Drosophila melanogaster the ortholog of GOLPH3 interacts with- and behaves as effector of the ortholog of RAB1. However, there is no experimental evidence implicating GOLPH3 as a possible RAB1 effector in mammalian cells. Here, we show that human GOLPH3 interacted directly with either RAB1A or RAB1B, the two isoforms of RAB1 in humans. The interaction was nucleotide dependent and it was favored with GTP-locked active state variants of these GTPases, indicating that human GOLPH3 is a bona fide effector of RAB1A and RAB1B. Moreover, the expression in cultured cells of the GTP-locked variants resulted in less distribution of GOLPH3 in the Golgi apparatus, suggesting an intriguing model of GOLPH3 regulation.

PITPNC1 Recruits RAB1B to the Golgi Network to Drive Malignant Secretion.

Project description:Enhanced secretion of tumorigenic effector proteins is a feature of malignant cells. The molecular mechanisms underlying this feature are poorly defined. We identify PITPNC1 as a gene amplified in a large fraction of human breast cancer and overexpressed in metastatic breast, melanoma, and colon cancers. Biochemical, molecular, and cell-biological studies reveal that PITPNC1 promotes malignant secretion by binding Golgi-resident PI4P and localizing RAB1B to the Golgi. RAB1B localization to the Golgi allows for the recruitment of GOLPH3, which facilitates Golgi extension and enhanced vesicular release. PITPNC1-mediated vesicular release drives metastasis by increasing the secretion of pro-invasive and pro-angiogenic mediators HTRA1, MMP1, FAM3C, PDGFA, and ADAM10. We establish PITPNC1 as a PI4P-binding protein that enhances vesicular secretion capacity in malignancy.

Spatial-temporal dynamics of collective chemosensing.

Project description:Although the process of chemosensing by individual cells is intrisically stochastic, multicellular organisms exhibit highly regulated responses to external stimulations. Two key elements to understand the deterministic features of chemosensing are intercellular communications and the role of pacemaker cells. To characterize the collective behavior induced by these two factors, we study the spatial-temporal calcium dynamics of fibroblast cells in response to ATP stimulation. We find that closely packed cell colonies exhibit faster, more synchronized, and highly correlated responses compared to isolated cells. In addition, we demonstrate for chemosensing the existence of pacemaker cells and how the presence of gap junctions impact the first step of the collective response. By further comparing these results with the calcium dynamics of cells embedded in thin hydrogel films, where intercellular communication is only possible via diffusing molecules, we conclude that gap junctions are required for synchronized and highly correlated responses among cells in high density colonies. In addition, in high density cell colonies, both communication channels lead to calcium oscillations following the stimulation by external ATP. While the calcium oscillations associated with cells directly exposed to external flows were transient, the oscillations of hydrogel trapped cells can persist with a fundamental frequency and higher harmonics. Our observations and measurements highlight the crucial role of intercellular signaling for generating regulated spatial and temporal dynamics in cell colonies and tissues.

The Golgi matrix protein GM130: a specific interacting partner of the small GTPase rab1b.

Project description:To detect specific partners of the small Golgi-localized GTPase rab1b we generated rab1b mutants and used them as bait proteins in yeast two-hybrid screens. We isolated several specifically interacting clones. Two of them encode large protein fragments highly homologous to rat GM130 and to human Golgin95. The full-length human GM130 cDNA was cloned and its interaction with rab1b was characterized in detail by yeast two-hybrid and in vitro binding assays. Here we report for the first time that the rab1b protein interacts specifically with GM130 in a GTP-dependent manner and therefore needs the hypervariable regions of the N- and C-termini. We mapped the rab1b binding site of GM130 and provide evidence that it is different to the previously described p115 and Grasp65 binding sites of the GM130 protein.

Spatial and temporal dynamics of malaria in Madagascar.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Malaria is one of the primary health concerns in Madagascar. Based on the duration and intensity of transmission, Madagascar is divided into five epidemiological strata that range from low to mesoendemic transmission. In this study, the spatial and temporal dynamics of malaria within each epidemiological zone were studied. METHODS:The number of reported cases of uncomplicated malaria from 112 health districts between 2010 and 2014 were compiled and analysed. First, a Standardized Incidence Ratio was calculated to detect districts with anomalous incidence compared to the stratum-level incidence. Building on this, spatial and temporal malaria clusters were identified throughout the country and their variability across zones and over time was analysed. RESULTS:The incidence of malaria increased from 2010 to 2014 within each stratum. A basic analysis showed that districts with more than 50 cases per 1000 inhabitants are mainly located in two strata: East and West. Lower incidence values were found in the Highlands and Fringe zones. The standardization method revealed that the number of districts with a higher than expected numbers of cases increased through time and expanded into the Highlands and Fringe zones. The cluster analysis showed that for the endemic coastal region, clusters of districts migrated southward and the incidence of malaria was the highest between January and July with some variation within strata. CONCLUSION:This study identified critical districts with low incidence that shifted to high incidence and district that were consistent clusters across each year. The current study provided a detailed description of changes in malaria epidemiology and can aid the national malaria programme to reduce and prevent the expansion of the disease by targeting the appropriate areas.

Imaging interorganelle contacts and local calcium dynamics at the ER-mitochondrial interface.

Project description:The ER-mitochondrial junction provides a local calcium signaling domain that is critical for both matching energy production with demand and the control of apoptosis. Here, we visualize ER-mitochondrial contact sites and monitor the localized [Ca(2+)] changes ([Ca(2+)](ER-mt)) using drug-inducible fluorescent interorganelle linkers. We show that all mitochondria have contacts with the ER, but plasma membrane (PM)-mitochondrial contacts are less frequent because of interleaving ER stacks in both RBL-2H3 and H9c2 cells. Single mitochondria display discrete patches of ER contacts and show heterogeneity in the ER-mitochondrial Ca(2+) transfer. Pericam-tagged linkers revealed IP(3)-induced [Ca(2+)](ER-mt) signals that exceeded 9 microM and endured buffering bulk cytoplasmic [Ca(2+)] increases. Altering linker length to modify the space available for the Ca(2+) transfer machinery had a biphasic effect on [Ca(2+)](ER-mt) signals. These studies provide direct evidence for the existence of high-Ca(2+) microdomains between the ER and mitochondria and suggest an optimal gap width for efficient Ca(2+) transfer.
