Endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi trafficking of procollagen III via conventional vesicular and tubular carriers.

ABSTRACT: Collagen is the major protein component of the extracellular matrix. Synthesis of procollagens starts in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and three α chains form a rigid triple helix 300-400 nm in length. It remains unclear how such a large cargo is transported from the ER to the Golgi apparatus. In this study, to elucidate the intracellular transport of fibril-forming collagens, we fused cysteine-free GFP to the N-telopeptide region of procollagen III (GFP-COL3A1) and analyzed transport by live-cell imaging. We found that the maturation dynamics of procollagen III was largely different from that of network-forming procollagen IV. Proline hydroxylation of procollagen III uniquely triggered the formation of intralumenal droplet-like structures, similarly to events caused by liquid-liquid phase separation, and ER exit sites surrounded large droplets containing chaperones. Procollagen III was transported to the Golgi apparatus via vesicular and tubular carriers containing ERGIC53 and RAB1B; this process required TANGO1 and CUL3, which we previously reported to be dispensable for procollagen IV. GFP-COL3A1 and mCherry-α1AT were cotransported in the same vesicle. Based on these findings, we propose that shortly after ER exit, enlarged carriers containing procollagen III fuse to ERGIC for transport to the Golgi apparatus by conventional cargo carriers.

Project description:The route taken by papillomaviruses from the cell surface to the nucleus during infection is incompletely understood. Here, we developed a novel human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) pseudovirus in which the carboxy terminus of the minor capsid protein L2 is exposed on the exterior of the intact capsid prior to cell binding. With this pseudovirus, we used the proximity ligation assay immune detection technique to demonstrate that during entry HPV16 L2 traffics into and out of the early endosome prior to Golgi localization, and we demonstrated that L2 enters the endoplasmic reticulum during entry. The cellular membrane-associated protease, ?-secretase, is required for infection by HPV16 pseudovirus and authentic HPV16. We also showed that inhibition of ?-secretase does not interfere substantively with virus internalization, initiation of capsid disassembly, entry into the early endosome, or exit from this compartment, but ?-secretase is required for localization of L2 and viral DNA to the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum. These results show that incoming HPV16 traffics sequentially from the cell surface to the endosome and then to the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum prior to nuclear entry.The human papillomaviruses are small nonenveloped DNA viruses responsible for approximately 5% of all human cancer deaths, but little is known about the process by which these viruses transit from the cell surface to the nucleus. Here we show that incoming HPV16, the most common high-risk HPV, traffics though a series of vesicular compartments during infectious entry, including the endosome, Golgi apparatus, and endoplasmic reticulum. Furthermore, we show that ?-secretase, a cellular membrane-associated protease, is required for entry of the L2 minor capsid protein and viral DNA into the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum. These studies reveal a new pathway of cell entry by DNA viruses and suggest that components of this pathway are candidate antiviral targets.

Project description:Background: Herpesvirus capsids are assembled in the nucleus, translocated to the perinuclear space by budding, acquiring tegument and envelope, or released to the cytoplasm via impaired nuclear envelope. One model proposes that envelopment, "de-envelopment" and "re-envelopment" is essential for production of infectious virus. Glycoproteins gB/gH were reported to be essential for de-envelopment, by fusion of the "primary" envelope with the outer nuclear membrane. Yet, a high proportion of enveloped virions generated from genomes with deleted gB/gH were found in the cytoplasm and extracellular space, suggesting the existence of alternative exit routes. Methods: We investigated the relatedness between the nuclear envelope and membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex, in cells infected with either herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) or a Us3 deletion mutant thereof, or with bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) by transmission and scanning electron microscopy, employing freezing technique protocols. Results: The Golgi complex is a compact entity in a juxtanuclear position covered by a membrane on the cis face. Golgi membranes merge with membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum forming an entity with the perinuclear space. All compartments contained enveloped virions. After treatment with brefeldin A, HSV-1 virions aggregated in the perinuclear space and endoplasmic reticulum, while infectious progeny virus was still produced. Conclusions: The data suggest that virions derived by budding at nuclear membranes are intraluminally transported from the perinuclear space via Golgi -endoplasmic reticulum transitions into Golgi cisternae for packaging. Virions derived by budding at nuclear membranes are infective like Us3 deletion mutants, which accumulate in the perinuclear space. Therefore, i) de-envelopment followed by re-envelopment is not essential for production of infective progeny virus, ii) the process taking place at the outer nuclear membrane is budding not fusion, and iii) naked capsids gain access to the cytoplasmic matrix via impaired nuclear envelope as reported earlier.
