Okadaic acid treatment leads to a fragmentation of the trans-Golgi network and an increase in expression of TGN38 at the cell surface.

ABSTRACT: Okadaic acid (OA) is a protein phosphatase inhibitor which has, among other properties, previously been shown to induce a fragmentation of the cisternae of the Golgi stack [for review, see Lucocq (1992) J. Cell Sci. 103, 875-880]. The effects of OA an reversible and mimic intracellular events which occur during mitosis. To date, due to a lack of endogenous marker proteins, the effects of OA on the trans-Golgi network (TGN) has not been studied. Certain drugs, e.g. Brefeldin A (BFA), have different effects on the morphology of the Golgi stack and the TGN; it is therefore relevant to ask what effect(s) OA has on the TGN. We now present data from a study in which we have used antibodies to TGN38, an integral membrane protein predominantly localized to the TGN of rat NRK cells [Luzio, Brake, Banting, Howell, Braghetta and Stanley (1990) Biochem. J. 270, 97-102], to investigate the effects of OA on this organelle. OA induces a reversible fragmentation of the TGN. This fragmentation occurs with similar kinetics to that observed within the Golgi stack, and is independent of protein synthesis. The sensitivity of the TGN to OA is similar to that of the Golgi stack. The fragmentation of the TGN induced by OA also leads to a 10-fold increase in the level of TGN38 expressed at the plasma membrane.

Identification, sequencing and expression of an integral membrane protein of the trans-Golgi network (TGN38).

Project description:Organelle-specific integral membrane proteins were identified by a novel strategy which gives rise to monospecific antibodies to these proteins as well as to the cDNA clones encoding them. A cDNA expression library was screened with a polyclonal antiserum raised against Triton X-114-extracted organelle proteins and clones were then grouped using antibodies affinity-purified on individual fusion proteins. The identification, molecular cloning and sequencing are described of a type 1 membrane protein (TGN38) which is located specifically in the trans-Golgi network.

Selective fragmentation of the trans-Golgi apparatus by Rickettsia rickettsii.

Project description:Fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus is observed during a number of physiological processes including mitosis and apoptosis, but also occurs in pathological states such as neurodegenerative diseases and some infectious diseases. Here we show that highly virulent strains of Rickettsia rickettsii, the causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, induce selective fragmentation of the trans-Golgi network (TGN) soon after infection of host cells by secretion of the effector protein Rickettsial Ankyrin Repeat Protein 2 (RARP2). Remarkably, this fragmentation is pronounced for the trans-Golgi network but the cis-Golgi remains largely intact and appropriately localized. Thus R. rickettsii targets specifically the TGN and not the entire Golgi apparatus. Dispersal of the TGN is mediated by the secreted effector protein RARP2, a recently identified type IV secreted effector that is a member of the clan CD cysteine proteases. Site-directed mutagenesis of a predicted cysteine protease active site in RARP2 prevents TGN disruption. General protein transport to the cell surface is severely impacted in cells infected with virulent strains of R. rickettsii. These findings suggest a novel manipulation of cellular organization by an obligate intracellular bacterium to determine interactions with the host cell.

Identification, molecular characterization and immunolocalization of an isoform of the trans-Golgi-network (TGN)-specific integral membrane protein TGN38.

Project description:TGN38 is an integral membrane protein previously shown to be predominantly localized to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) of cells by virtue of a signal contained within its cytoplasmic 'tail' [Luzio, Brake, Banting, Howell, Braghetta & Stanley (1990) Biochem. J. 270, 97-102]. We now (i) describe the isolation of cDNA clones encoding an isoform of TGN38, (ii) present the sequence of that isoform and (iii) describe the production and use of antibodies which specifically recognize the new isoform. This isoform, designated TGN41, is also predominantly localized to the TGN. The only sequence differences between the protein coding regions of cDNA clones encoding TGN38 and those encoding TGN41 occur within the region specifying the cytoplasmic tails of the two proteins. The TGN localization signal is shown to be within the sequence common to both proteins.

Transition of galactosyltransferase 1 from trans-Golgi cisterna to the trans-Golgi network is signal mediated.

Project description:The Golgi apparatus (GA) is the organelle where complex glycan formation takes place. In addition, it is a major sorting site for proteins destined for various subcellular compartments or for secretion. Here we investigate beta1,4-galactosyltransferase 1 (galT) and alpha2,6-sialyltransferase 1 (siaT), two trans-Golgi glycosyltransferases, with respect to their different pathways in monensin-treated cells. Upon addition of monensin galT dissociates from siaT and the GA and accumulates in swollen vesicles derived from the trans-Golgi network (TGN), as shown by colocalization with TGN46, a specific TGN marker. We analyzed various chimeric constructs of galT and siaT by confocal fluorescence microscopy and time-lapse videomicroscopy as well as Optiprep density gradient fractionation. We show that the first 13 amino acids of the cytoplasmic tail of galT are necessary for its localization to swollen vesicles induced by monensin. We also show that the monensin sensitivity resulting from the cytoplasmic tail can be conferred to siaT, which leads to the rapid accumulation of the galT-siaT chimera in swollen vesicles upon monensin treatment. On the basis of these data, we suggest that cycling between the trans-Golgi cisterna and the trans-Golgi network of galT is signal mediated.

AtVPS45 complex formation at the trans-Golgi network.

Project description:The Sec1p family of proteins are thought to be involved in the regulation of vesicle fusion reactions through interaction with t-SNAREs (target soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) at the target membrane. AtVPS45 is a member of this family from Arabidopsis thaliana that we now demonstrate to be present on the trans-Golgi network (TGN), where it colocalizes with the vacuolar cargo receptor AtELP. Unlike yeast Vps45p, AtVPS45 does not interact with, or colocalize with, the prevacuolar t-SNARE AtPEP12. Instead, AtVPS45 interacts with two t-SNAREs, AtTLG2a and AtTLG2b, that show similarity to the yeast t-SNARE Tlg2p. AtTLG2a and -b each colocalize with AtVPS45 at the TGN; however, AtTLG2a is in a different region of the TGN than AtTLG2b by immunogold electron microscopy. Therefore, we propose that complexes containing AtVPS45 and either AtTLG2a or -b define functional subdomains of the TGN and may be required for different trafficking events. Among other Arabidopsis SNAREs, AtVPS45 antibodies preferentially coprecipitate AtVTI1b over the closely related isoform AtVTI1a, implying that AtVTI1a and AtVTI1b also have distinct functions within the cell. These data point to a functional complexity within the plant secretory pathway, where proteins encoded by gene families have specialized functions, rather than functional redundancy.

Analysis of the co-localization of the insulin-responsive glucose transporter (GLUT4) and the trans Golgi network marker TGN38 within 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Project description:The exposure of isolated adipocytes to insulin results in an approximately 20-fold increase in the rate of glucose transport into the cell. This increase is mediated by the movement of a pool of intracellular vesicles containing the so-called insulin-responsive glucose transporter (GLUT4) to the cell surface. In the resting state, most of the GLUT4 molecules are sequestered inside the adipocyte in an as yet unidentified intracellular compartment. TGN38 is an integral membrane protein which has been shown to be predominantly localized to the trans Golgi network [Luzio, Brake, Banting, Howell, Braghetta and Stanley (1990) Biochem. J. 270, 97-102]. Here we investigate whether GLUT4 and TGN38 are co-localized in the murine 3T3-L1 adipocyte cell line. Immuno-adsorption of intracellular vesicles containing GLUT4 with an anti-peptide antibody specific for this isoform did not deplete the low-density microsomal fraction of TGN38 in these cells; moreover, no TGN38 was detected in the GLUT4-containing vesicles by immunoblotting with a TGN38-specific antiserum. Immuno-adsorption of TGN38-containing vesicles and subsequent analysis of the proteins in these vesicles revealed that a detectable amount of GLUT4 (5-10%) did co-localise with TGN38. The amount of GLUT4 in the TGN38-containing vesicles did not change in response to insulin. Immunofluorescence analysis of TGN38 and GLUT4 in these cells revealed markedly different staining patterns. Reversal of insulin-stimulated glucose transport and subsequent analysis of the TGN38-containing vesicles demonstrated that during the re-cycling of GLUT4 to the intracellular storage site there was no increase in the amount of GLUT4 co-localized with TGN38. Taken together, these results suggest that the trans Golgi network is not the major site of the intracellular GLUT4 pool within 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

A new class of carriers that transport selective cargo from the trans Golgi network to the cell surface.

Project description:We have isolated a membrane fraction enriched in a class of transport carriers that form at the trans Golgi network (TGN) and are destined for the cell surface in HeLa cells. Protein kinase D (PKD) is required for the biogenesis of these carriers that contain myosin II, Rab6a, Rab8a, and synaptotagmin II, as well as a number of secretory and plasma membrane-specific cargoes. Our findings reveal a requirement for myosin II in the migration of these transport carriers but not in their biogenesis per se. Based on the cargo secreted by these carriers we have named them CARTS for CARriers of the TGN to the cell Surface. Surprisingly, CARTS are distinct from the carriers that transport vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-G protein and collagen I from the TGN to the cell surface. Altogether, the identification of CARTS provides a valuable means to understand TGN to cell surface traffic.

Kinesin-5/Eg5 is important for transport of CARTS from the trans-Golgi network to the cell surface.

Project description:Here we report that the kinesin-5 motor Klp61F, which is known for its role in bipolar spindle formation in mitosis, is required for protein transport from the Golgi complex to the cell surface in Drosophila S2 cells. Disrupting the function of its mammalian orthologue, Eg5, in HeLa cells inhibited secretion of a protein called pancreatic adenocarcinoma up-regulated factor (PAUF) but, surprisingly, not the trafficking of vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSV-G) to the cell surface. We have previously reported that PAUF is transported from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the cell surface in specific carriers called CARTS that exclude VSV-G. Inhibition of Eg5 function did not affect the biogenesis of CARTS; however, their migration was delayed and they accumulated near the Golgi complex. Altogether, our findings reveal a surprising new role of Eg5 in nonmitotic cells in the facilitation of the transport of specific carriers, CARTS, from the TGN to the cell surface.

Low Rho activity in hepatocytes prevents apical from basolateral cargo separation during trans-Golgi network to surface transport.

Project description:Hepatocytes, the main epithelial cells of the liver, organize their polarized membrane domains differently from ductal epithelia. They also differ in their biosynthetic delivery of single-membrane-spanning and glycophosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins to the apical domain. While ductal epithelia target apical proteins to varying degrees from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the apical surface directly, hepatocytes target them first to the basolateral domain, from where they undergo basolateral-to-apical transcytosis. How TGN-to-surface transport differs in both scenarios is unknown. Here, we report that the basolateral detour of a hepatocyte apical protein is due, in part, to low RhoA activity at the TGN, which prevents its segregation from basolateral transport carriers. Activating Rho in hepatocytic cells, which switches their polarity from hepatocytic to ductal, also led to apical-basolateral cargo segregation at the TGN as is typical for ductal cells, affirming a central role for Rho-signaling in different aspects of the hepatocytic polarity phenotype. Nevertheless, Rho-induced cargo segregation was not sufficient to target the apical protein directly; thus, failure to recruit apical targeting machinery also contributes to its indirect itinerary.

Golgi-localized LOT regulates <i>trans</i>-Golgi network biogenesis and pollen tube growth.

Project description:The trans-Golgi network (TGN) is an essential tubular-vesicular organelle derived from the Golgi and functions as an independent sorting and trafficking hub within the cell. However, the molecular regulation of TGN biogenesis remains enigmatic. Here we identified an Arabidopsis mutant loss of TGN (lot) that is defective in TGN formation and sterile due to impaired pollen tube growth in the style. The mutation leads to overstacking of the Golgi cisternae and significant reduction in the number of TGNs and vesicles surrounding the Golgi in pollen, which is corroborated by the dispersed cytosolic distribution of TGN-localized proteins. Consistently, deposition of extracellular pectin and plasma membrane localization of kinases and phosphoinositide species are also impaired. Subcellular localization analysis suggests that LOT is localized on the periphery of the Golgi cisternae, but the mutation does not affect the localization of Golgi-resident proteins. Furthermore, the yeast complementation result suggests that LOT could functionally act as a component of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) complex of small Rab GTPase Ypt6. Taken together, these findings suggest that LOT is a critical player for TGN biogenesis in the plant lineage.
