De novo formation, fusion and fission of mammalian COPII-coated endoplasmic reticulum exit sites.

ABSTRACT: Transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi is mediated by the sequential action of the COPII and COPI coat complexes. COPII subunits are recruited to the ER membrane where they mediate the selection of cargo for transport to the Golgi, and also membrane deformation and vesicle formation. New ER exit sites can be generated by lateral growth and medial fission (in Pythium sp.) or by de novo formation (in Pichia pastoris) but it is not known how mammalian ER exit sites form. Here, time-lapse imaging of COPII-coated structures in live mammalian cells reveals that the number of ER export sites increases greatly during interphase by de novo formation. These results show the fusion of pre-existing ER export sites and the fission of larger structures. These three mechanisms of de novo formation, fusion and fission probably cooperate to regulate the size of these sites in mammalian cells.

EDEM1 reveals a quality control vesicular transport pathway out of the endoplasmic reticulum not involving the COPII exit sites.

Project description:Immature and nonnative proteins are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the quality control machinery. Folding-incompetent glycoproteins are eventually targeted for ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD). EDEM1 (ER degradation-enhancing alpha-mannosidase-like protein 1), a putative mannose-binding protein, targets misfolded glycoproteins for ERAD. We report that endogenous EDEM1 exists mainly as a soluble glycoprotein. By high-resolution immunolabeling and serial section analysis, we find that endogenous EDEM1 is sequestered in buds that form along cisternae of the rough ER at regions outside of the transitional ER. They give rise to approximately 150-nm vesicles scattered throughout the cytoplasm that are lacking a recognizable COPII coat. About 87% of the immunogold labeling was over the vesicles and approximately 11% over the ER lumen. Some of the EDEM1 vesicles also contain Derlin-2 and the misfolded Hong Kong variant of alpha-1-antitrypsin, a substrate for EDEM1 and ERAD. Our results demonstrate the existence of a vesicle budding transport pathway out of the rough ER that does not involve the canonical transitional ER exit sites and therefore represents a previously unrecognized passageway to remove potentially harmful misfolded luminal glycoproteins from the ER.

Biogenesis of cytoplasmic membranous vesicles for plant potyvirus replication occurs at endoplasmic reticulum exit sites in a COPI- and COPII-dependent manner.

Project description:Single-stranded positive-sense RNA viruses induce the biogenesis of cytoplasmic membranous vesicles, where viral replication takes place. However, the mechanism underlying this characteristic vesicular proliferation remains poorly understood. Previously, a 6-kDa potyvirus membrane protein (6K) was shown to interact with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and to induce the formation of the membranous vesicles. In this study, the involvement of the early secretory pathway in the formation of the 6K-induced vesicles was investigated in planta. By means of live-cell imaging, it was found that the 6K protein was predominantly colocalized with Sar1, Sec23, and Sec24, which are known markers of ER exit sites (ERES). The localization of 6K at ERES was prevented by the coexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of Sar1 that disables the COPII activity or by the coexpression of a mutant of Arf1 that disrupts the COPI complex. The secretion of a soluble secretory marker targeting the apoplast was arrested at the level of the ER in cells overexpressing 6K or infected by a potyvirus. This blockage of protein trafficking out of the ER by 6K and the distribution of 6K toward the ERES may account for the aggregation of the 6K-bound vesicles. Finally, virus infection was reduced when the accumulation of 6K at ERES was inhibited by impairing either the COPI or COPII complex. Taken together, these results imply that the cellular COPI and COPII coating machineries are involved in the biogenesis of the potyvirus 6K vesicles at the ERES for viral-genome replication.

mGluR long-term depression regulates GluA2 association with COPII vesicles and exit from the endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:mGluR long-term depression (mGluR-LTD) is a form of synaptic plasticity induced at excitatory synapses by metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). mGluR-LTD reduces synaptic strength and is relevant to learning and memory, autism, and sensitization to cocaine; however, the mechanism is not known. Here we show that activation of Group I mGluRs in medium spiny neurons induces trafficking of GluA2 from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the synapse by enhancing GluA2 binding to essential COPII vesicle proteins, Sec23 and Sec13. GluA2 exit from the ER further depends on IP3 and Ryanodine receptor-controlled Ca2+ release as well as active translation. Synaptic insertion of GluA2 is coupled to removal of high-conducting Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors from synapses, resulting in synaptic depression. This work demonstrates a novel mechanism in which mGluR signals release AMPA receptors rapidly from the ER and couple ER release to GluA2 synaptic insertion and GluA1 removal.

Influenza A virus ribonucleoproteins form liquid organelles at endoplasmic reticulum exit sites.

Project description:Influenza A virus has an eight-partite RNA genome that during viral assembly forms a complex containing one copy of each RNA. Genome assembly is a selective process driven by RNA-RNA interactions and is hypothesized to lead to discrete punctate structures scattered through the cytosol. Here, we show that contrary to the accepted view, formation of these structures precedes RNA-RNA interactions among distinct viral ribonucleoproteins (vRNPs), as they assemble in cells expressing only one vRNP type. We demonstrate that these viral inclusions display characteristics of liquid organelles, segregating from the cytosol without a delimitating membrane, dynamically exchanging material and adapting fast to environmental changes. We provide evidence that viral inclusions develop close to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites, depend on continuous ER-Golgi vesicular cycling and do not promote escape to interferon response. We propose that viral inclusions segregate vRNPs from the cytosol and facilitate selected RNA-RNA interactions in a liquid environment.

Ceramide chain length-dependent protein sorting into selective endoplasmic reticulum exit sites.

Project description:Protein sorting in the secretory pathway is crucial to maintain cellular compartmentalization and homeostasis. In addition to coat-mediated sorting, the role of lipids in driving protein sorting during secretory transport is a longstanding fundamental question that still remains unanswered. Here, we conduct 3D simultaneous multicolor high-resolution live imaging to demonstrate in vivo that newly synthesized glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins having a very long chain ceramide lipid moiety are clustered and sorted into specialized endoplasmic reticulum exit sites that are distinct from those used by transmembrane proteins. Furthermore, we show that the chain length of ceramide in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane is critical for this sorting selectivity. Our study provides the first direct in vivo evidence for lipid chain length-based protein cargo sorting into selective export sites of the secretory pathway.

cTAGE5 mediates collagen secretion through interaction with TANGO1 at endoplasmic reticulum exit sites.

Project description:Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma-associated antigen 5 (cTAGE5), an originally identified tumor antigen, is overexpressed in various cancer cell lines. The cDNA encodes an integral membrane protein containing two coiled-coil motifs and a proline-rich domain. We show that cTAGE5 specifically localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites. In addition, cTAGE5 forms a complex with TANGO1 (MIA3), a previously characterized cargo receptor for collagen VII, by the interaction of their coiled-coil motifs. Of interest, cTAGE5, as well as TANGO1, is capable of interacting with the inner-layer coatomer of COPII Sec23/24 complex through their C-terminal proline-rich domains and required for collagen VII secretion. We propose that cTAGE5 acts as a coreceptor of TANGO1 for collagen VII export from the ER.

Dynamic Capture and Release of Endoplasmic Reticulum Exit Sites by Golgi Stacks in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi stacks is mediated by the coat protein complex COPII, which is assembled at an ER subdomain called ER exit site (ERES). However, the dynamic relationship between ERESs and Golgi stacks is unknown. Here, we propose a dynamic capture-and-release model of ERESs by Golgi stacks in Arabidopsis thaliana. Using variable-angle epifluorescence microscopy with high-temporal-resolution imaging, COPII-component-bound ERESs were detected as punctate structures with sizes of 300-500 nm. Some punctate ERESs are distributed on ER tubules and sheet rims, whereas others gather around a Golgi stack in an ER-network cavity to form a beaded-ring structure. Free ERESs that wander into an ER cavity are captured by a Golgi stack in a cytoskeleton-independent manner. Then, they are released by the Golgi stack for recycling. The dynamic ERES cycling might contribute to efficient transfer of de novo synthesized cargo proteins from the ER to Golgi stacks.

Diffusion of Exit Sites on the Endoplasmic Reticulum: A Random Walk on a Shivering Backbone.

Project description:Major parts of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in eukaryotic cells are organized as a dynamic network of membrane tubules connected by three-way junctions. On this network, self-assembled membrane domains, called ER exit sites (ERES), provide platforms at which nascent cargo proteins are packaged into vesicular carriers for subsequent transport along the secretory pathway. Although ERES appear stationary and spatially confined on long timescales, we show here via single-particle tracking that they exhibit a microtubule-dependent and heterogeneous anomalous diffusion behavior on short and intermediate timescales. By quantifying key parameters of their random walk, we show that the subdiffusive motion of ERES is distinct from that of ER junctions, i.e., ERES are not tied to junctions but rather are mobile on ER tubules. We complement and corroborate our experimental findings with model simulations that also indicate that ERES are not actively moved by microtubules. Altogether, our study shows that ERES perform a random walk on the shivering ER backbone, indirectly powered by microtubular activity. Similar phenomena can be expected for other domains on subcellular structures, setting a caveat for the interpretation of domain-tracking data.

Blocking variant surface glycoprotein synthesis alters endoplasmic reticulum exit sites/Golgi homeostasis in Trypanosoma brucei.

Project description:The predominant secretory cargo of bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei is variant surface glycoprotein (VSG), comprising ~10% total protein and forming a dense protective layer. Blocking VSG translation using Morpholino oligonucleotides triggered a precise pre-cytokinesis arrest. We investigated the effect of blocking VSG synthesis on the secretory pathway. The number of Golgi decreased, particularly in post-mitotic cells, from 3.5 ± 0.6 to 2.0 ± 0.04 per cell. Similarly, the number of endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES) in post-mitotic cells dropped from 3.9 ± 0.6 to 2.7 ± 0.1 eight?hours after blocking VSG synthesis. The secretory pathway was still functional in these stalled cells, as monitored using Cathepsin L. Rates of phospholipid and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor biosynthesis remained relatively unaffected, except for the level of sphingomyelin which increased. However, both endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi morphology became distorted, with the Golgi cisternae becoming significantly dilated, particularly at the trans-face. Membrane accumulation in these structures is possibly caused by reduced budding of nascent vesicles due to the drastic reduction in the total amount of secretory cargo, that is, VSG. These data argue that the total flux of secretory cargo impacts upon the biogenesis and maintenance of secretory structures and organelles in T. brucei, including the ERES and Golgi.

Cis-Golgi matrix proteins move directly to endoplasmic reticulum exit sites by association with tubules.

Project description:The role of cis-medial Golgi matrix proteins in retrograde traffic is poorly understood. We have used imaging techniques to understand the relationship between the cis-medial Golgi matrix and transmembrane proteins during retrograde traffic in control and brefeldin A (BFA)-treated cells. All five of the cis-medial matrix proteins tested were associated with retrograde tubules within 2-3 min of initiation of tubule formation. Then, at later time points (3-10 min), transmembrane proteins are apparent in the same tubules. Strikingly, both the matrix proteins and the transmembrane proteins moved directly to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites labeled with p58 and Sec13, and there seemed to be a specific interaction between the ER exit sites and the tips or branch points of the tubules enriched for the matrix proteins. After the initial interaction, Golgi matrix proteins accumulated rapidly (5-10 min) at ER exit sites, and Golgi transmembrane proteins accumulated at the same sites approximately 2 h later. Our data suggest that Golgi cis-medial matrix proteins participate in Golgi-to-ER traffic and play a novel role in tubule formation and targeting.
