Steady-state localization of a medial-Golgi glycosyltransferase involves transit through the trans-Golgi network.

ABSTRACT: The steady-state localization of medial-Golgi enzymes is likely to involve retrograde transport pathways; however, the trafficking of these resident enzymes through the Golgi stack is unclear. To investigate if the medial-Golgi enzyme beta-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GlcNAc-TI) is transported to the late Golgi, a modified GlcNAc-TI bearing an N-glycan site on the C-terminus was constructed. The modified GlcNAc-TI was demonstrated to be functionally active in vivo, and was localized to the Golgi stack of transfected cells. In stable Chinese-hamster ovary (CHO) cell clones, the N-glycosylated GlcNAc-TI carried sialylated complex N-glycan chains. Pulse-chase studies showed that the majority of GlcNAc-TI was sialylated within 60 min of synthesis. Treatment of transfected CHO cells with Brefeldin A resulted in the glycosylated GlcNAc-TI bearing endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H resistant chains; however, the sialylation of glycosylated GlcNAc-TI was dramatically reduced. These data imply that, in CHO cells, newly synthesized GlcNAc-TI is transported rapidly through the Golgi stack to the trans-Golgi network, suggesting that GlcNAc-TI continuously recycles from the late Golgi. Furthermore, this data suggests that retrograde transport pathways play an important role in establishing the asymmetric distribution of GlcNAc-TI within the Golgi stack.

bicoid RNA localization requires the trans-Golgi network.

Project description:BackgroundThe formation of the bicoid (bcd) mRNA gradient is a crucial step for Bcd protein gradient formation in Drosophila. In the past, a microtubule (MT)-based cortical network had been shown to be indispensable for bcd mRNA transport to the posterior.ResultsWe report the identification of a MT-binding protein CLASP/Chb as the first component associated with this cortical MT network. Since CLASPs in vertebrates were shown to serve as an acentriolar microtubule organization center (aMTOC) in concert with trans-Golgi proteins, we examined the effect of the Drosophila trans-Golgins on bcd localization and gradient formation. Using a genetic approach, we demonstrate that the Drosophila trans-Golgins dGCC88, dGolgin97 and dGCC185 indeed affect bcd mRNA localization during oocyte development. Consequently, the bcd mRNA is already mislocalized before the egg is fertilized. The expression domains of genes downstream of the hierarchy of bcd, e.g. of the gap gene empty spiracles or of the pair-rule gene even-skipped are changed, indicating an altered segmental anlagen, due to a faulty bcd gradient. Thus, at the end of embryogenesis, trans-Golgin mutants show bcd-like cuticle phenotypes.ConclusionsOur data provides evidence that the Golgi as a cellular member of the secretory pathway exerts control on bcd localization which indicates that bcd gradient formation is probably more intricate than previously presumed.

Localization of human heparan glucosaminyl N-deacetylase/N-sulphotransferase to the trans-Golgi network.

Project description:In order to determine the intracellular location of heparan N-deacetylase/N-sulphotransferase, cDNAs encoding human heparan glucosaminyl N-deacetylase/N-sulphotransferase were cloned from human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The deduced amino acid sequence was identical to that of the human heparan N-sulphotransferase cloned previously [Dixon, Loftus, Gladwin, Scambler, Wasmuth and Dixon (1995) Genomics 26, 239-244]. RNA blot analysis indicated that two heparan N-sulphotransferase transcripts of approx. 8.5 and 4 kb were produced in all tissues. Expression was most abundant in heart, liver and pancreas. A cDNA encoding a Flag-tagged human heparan N-sulphotransferase (where Flag is an epitope with the sequence DYKDDDDK) was transfected into mouse LTA cells. Immunofluorescence detection using anti-Flag monoclonal antibodies demonstrated that the enzyme was localized to the trans-Golgi network. A truncated Flag-tagged heparan N-sulphotransferase was also retained in the Golgi, indicating that, as for many other Golgi enzymes, the N-terminal region of heparan N-sulphotransferase is sufficient for retention in the Golgi apparatus.

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.

Single-molecule localization microscopy reveals STING clustering at the trans-Golgi network through palmitoylation-dependent accumulation of cholesterol.

Project description:Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is critical for the type I interferon response to pathogen- or self-derived DNA in the cytosol. STING may function as a scaffold to activate TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), but direct cellular evidence remains lacking. Here we show, using single-molecule imaging of STING with enhanced time resolutions down to 5 ms, that STING becomes clustered at the trans-Golgi network (about 20 STING molecules per cluster). The clustering requires STING palmitoylation and the Golgi lipid order defined by cholesterol. Single-molecule imaging of TBK1 reveals that STING clustering enhances the association with TBK1. We thus provide quantitative proof-of-principle for the signaling STING scaffold, reveal the mechanistic role of STING palmitoylation in the STING activation, and resolve the long-standing question of the requirement of STING translocation for triggering the innate immune signaling.

Beta-catenin phosphorylated at threonine 120 antagonizes generation of active beta-catenin by spatial localization in trans-Golgi network.

Project description:The stability and subcellular localization of beta-catenin, a protein that plays a major role in cell adhesion and proliferation, is tightly regulated by multiple signaling pathways. While aberrant activation of beta-catenin signaling has been implicated in cancers, the biochemical identity of transcriptionally active beta-catenin (ABC), commonly known as unphosphorylated serine 37 (S37) and threonine 41 (T41) β-catenin, remains elusive. Our current study demonstrates that ABC transcriptional activity is influenced by phosphorylation of T120 by Protein Kinase D1 (PKD1). Whereas the nuclear β-catenin from PKD1-low prostate cancer cell line C4-2 is unphosphorylated S37/T41/T120 with high transcription activity, the nuclear β-catenin from PKD1-overexpressing C4-2 cells is highly phosphorylated at T120, S37 and T41 with low transcription activity, implying that accumulation of nuclear β-catenin alone cannot be simply used as a read-out for Wnt activation. In human normal prostate tissue, the phosphorylated T120 β-catenin is mainly localized to the trans-Golgi network (TGN, 22/30, 73%), and this pattern is significantly altered in prostate cancer (14/197, 7.1%), which is consistent with known down regulation of PKD1 in prostate cancer. These in vitro and in vivo data unveil a previously unrecognized post-translational modification of ABC through T120 phosphorylation by PKD1, which alters subcellular localization and transcriptional activity of β-catenin. Our results support the view that β-catenin signaling activity is regulated by spatial compartmentation and post-translational modifications and protein level of β-catenin alone is insufficient to count signaling activity.

Glycosyltransferase-specific Golgi-targeting mechanisms.

Project description:Glycosylation of secreted and membrane-bound mucins is carried out by glycosyltransferases localized to specific Golgi compartments according to the step in which each enzyme participates. However, the Golgi-targeting mechanisms of these enzymes are not clear. Herein, we investigate the Golgi-targeting mechanisms of core 1 ?3 galactosyltransferase (C1GalT1) and core 2 ?1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-2 or mucus type (C2GnT-M), which participate in the early O-glycosylation steps. siRNAs, co-immunoprecipitation, and confocal fluorescence microscopy were employed to identify the golgins involved in the Golgi docking of vesicular complexes (VCs) that carry these two enzymes. We have found that these VCs use different golgins for docking: C2GnT-M-carrying VC (C2GnT-M-VC) utilizes Giantin, whereas C1GalT1-VC employs GM130-GRASP65 complex. However, in the absence of GRASP65, C1GalT1-VC utilizes GM130-Giantin complex. Also, we have found that these VCs are 1.1-1.2 ?m in diameter, specific for each enzyme, and independent of coat protein complex II and I (COPII and COPI). These two fluorescently tagged enzymes exhibit different fluorescence recovery times in the Golgi after photobleaching. Thus, novel enzyme-specific Golgi-targeting mechanisms are employed by glycosyltransferases, and multiple Golgi docking strategies are utilized by C1GalT1.

Transport of LDL-derived cholesterol from the NPC1 compartment to the ER involves the trans-Golgi network and the SNARE protein complex.

Project description:Mammalian cells acquire cholesterol mainly from LDL. LDL enter the endosomes, allowing cholesteryl esters to be hydrolyzed by acid lipase. The hydrolyzed cholesterol (LDL-CHOL) enters the Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1)-containing endosomal compartment en route to various destinations. Whether the Golgi is involved in LDL-CHOL transport downstream of the NPC1 compartment has not been demonstrated. Using subcellular fractionation and immunoadsorption to enrich for specific membrane fractions, here we show that, when parental Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are briefly exposed to (3)H-cholesteryl linoleate (CL) labeled-LDL, newly liberated (3)H-LDL-CHOL appears in membranes rich in trans-Golgi network (TGN) long before it becomes available for re-esterification at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or for efflux at the plasma membrane. In mutant cells lacking NPC1, the appearance of newly liberated (3)H-LDL-CHOL in the TGN-rich fractions is much reduced. We next report a reconstituted transport system that recapitulates the transport of LDL-CHOL to the TGN and to the ER. The transport system requires ATP and cytosolic factors and depends on functionality of NPC1. We demonstrate that knockdown by RNAi of 3 TGN-specific SNAREs (VAMP4, syntaxin 6, and syntaxin 16) reduces >/=50% of the LDL-CHOL transport in intact cells and in vitro. These results show that vesicular trafficking is involved in transporting a significant portion of LDL-CHOL from the NPC1-containing endosomal compartment to the TGN before its arrival at the ER.

Golgi-localized LOT regulates trans-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.

Intracellular traffic of herpes simplex virus glycoprotein gE: characterization of the sorting signals required for its trans-Golgi network localization.

Project description:Herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) are two pathogenic human alphaherpesviruses whose intracellular assembly is thought to follow different pathways. VZV presumably acquires its envelope in the trans-Golgi network (TGN), and it has recently been shown that its major envelope glycoprotein, VZV-gE, accumulates in this compartment when expressed alone. In contrast, the envelopment of HSV has been proposed to occur at the inner nuclear membrane, although to which compartment the gE homolog (HSV-gE) is transported is unknown. For this reason, we have studied the intracellular traffic of HSV-gE and have found that this glycoprotein accumulates at steady state in the TGN, both when expressed from cloned cDNA and in HSV-infected cells. In addition, HSV-gE cycles between the TGN and the cell surface and requires a conserved tyrosine-containing motif within its cytoplasmic tail for proper trafficking. These results show that VZV-gE and HSV-gE have similar intracellular trafficking pathways, probably reflecting the presence of similar sorting signals in the cytoplasmic domains of both molecules, and suggest that the respective viruses, VZV and HSV, could use the same subcellular organelle, the TGN, for their envelopment.
