The actin filament severing protein cofilin-1 (CFL-1) is required for actin and P-type ATPase secretory pathway calcium ATPase (SPCA)-dependent sorting of secretory proteins at the trans-Golgi network (TGN). How these proteins interact and activate the pump to facilitate cargo sorting, however, is not known. We used purified proteins to assess interaction of the cytoplasmic domains of SPCA1 with actin and CFL-1. A 132–amino acid portion of the SPCA1 phosphorylation domain (P-domain) interacted with actin in a CFL-1–dependent manner. This domain, coupled to nickel nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) agarose beads, specifically recruited F-actin in the presence of CFL-1 and, when expressed in HeLa cells, inhibited Ca2+ entry into the TGN and secretory cargo sorting. Mutagenesis of four amino acids in SPCA1 that represent the CFL-1 binding site also affected Ca2+ import into the TGN and secretory cargo sorting. Altogether, our findings reveal the mechanism of CFL-1–dependent recruitment of actin to SPCA1 and the significance of this interaction for Ca2+ influx and secretory cargo sorting.

The mechanism of cargo sorting at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) for secretion is poorly understood. We previously reported the involvement of the actin-severing protein cofilin and the Ca2+ ATPase secretory pathway calcium ATPase 1 (SPCA1) in the sorting of soluble secretory cargo at the TGN in mammalian cells. Now we report that cofilin in yeast is required for export of selective secretory cargo at the late Golgi membranes. In cofilin mutant (cof1-8) cells, the cell wall protein Bgl2 was secreted at a reduced rate and retained in a late Golgi compartment, whereas the plasma membrane H+ ATPase Pma1, which is transported in the same class of carriers, reached the cell surface. In addition, sorting of carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) to the vacuole was delayed, and CPY was secreted from cof1-8 cells. Loss of the yeast orthologue of SPCA1 (Pmr1) exhibited similar sorting defects and displayed synthetic sickness with cof1-8. In addition, overexpression of PMR1 restored Bgl2 secretion in cof1-8 cells. These findings highlight the conserved role of cofilin and SPCA1/Pmr1 in sorting of the soluble secretory proteins at the TGN/late Golgi membranes in eukaryotes.

We tested the effect of H-89, a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, on the intracellular transit of the regulated secretory proteins in rat lacrimal glands. We show that H-89, by itself, induces the secretion of newly synthesized proteins trafficking in its presence but not of proteins already stored in the mature secretory granules. This secretion does not depend on the presence of extracellular Ca2+. The proteins released are identical to those secreted after cholinergic stimulation or under the action of the ionophore A-23187, but the secretion level is ∼40% lower. The effect of H-89 seems to be due to PKA inhibition because other protein kinase inhibitors (calphostin C, chelerythrine, H-85) do not induce secretion. We further show that H-89 does not modify the rate of glycoprotein galactosylation but induces the secretion of newly galactosylated glycoproteins. Finally, we used a “20°C block” procedure to show that H-89 affects a trans-Golgi network (TGN) or post-TGN step of the secretory pathway. Our results demonstrate that, in lacrimal cells, H-89 affects the intracellular trafficking of secretory proteins, suggesting a role for PKA in this process.

Sorting and export of transmembrane cargoes and lysosomal hydrolases at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) are well understood. However, elucidation of the mechanism by which secretory cargoes are segregated for their release into the extracellular space remains a challenge. We have previously demonstrated that, in a reaction that requires Ca2+, the soluble TGN-resident protein Cab45 is necessary for the sorting of secretory cargoes at the TGN. Here, we report that Cab45 reversibly assembles into oligomers in the presence of Ca2+. These Cab45 oligomers specifically bind secretory proteins, such as COMP and LyzC, in a Ca2+-dependent manner in vitro. In intact cells, mutation of the Ca2+-binding sites in Cab45 impairs oligomerization, as well as COMP and LyzC sorting. Superresolution microscopy revealed that Cab45 colocalizes with secretory proteins and the TGN Ca2+ pump (SPCA1) in specific TGN microdomains. These findings reveal that Ca2+-dependent changes in Cab45 mediate sorting of specific cargo molecules at the TGN.

Three chaperones, the chaperonins cpn10 and cpn60, and the hsp70 protein, were revealed by immunochemistry and cytochemistry in pancreatic rat acinar cells. Western immunoblotting analysis of rat pancreas homogenates has shown that antibodies against cpn10, cpn60 and hsp70 protein recognize single protein bands of 25 kDa, 60 kDa and 70 kDa, respectively. Single bands for the cpn10 and cpn60 were also detected in pancreatic juice. Immunofluorescence studies on rat pancreatic tissue revealed a strong positive signal in the apical region of the acinar cells for cpn10 and cpn60, while an immunoreaction was detected at the juxtanuclear Golgi region with the anti-hsp70 antibody. Immunocytochemical gold labeling confirmed the presence of these three chaperones in distinct cell compartments of pancreatic acinar cells. Chaperonin 10 and cpn60 were located in the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, condensing vacuoles and secretory granules. Interestingly, the labeling for both cpn10 and cpn60 followed the increasing concentration gradient of secretory proteins along the RER-Golgi-granule secretory pathway. On the contrary, the labeling for hsp70 was mainly concentrated in the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. In the latter, the hsp70 was found to be primary located in the trans-most cisternae and to colocalize with acid phosphatase in the trans-Golgi network. The three chaperones were also present in mitochondria. In view of the role played by the chaperones in the proper folding, sorting and aggregation of proteins, we postulate that hsp70 assists the adequate sorting and packaging of proteins from the ER to the trans-Golgi network while cpn10 and cpn60 play key roles in the proper packaging and aggregation of secretory proteins as well as, most probably, in the prevention of early enzyme activation in secretory granules.

Ca2+ import into the lumen of the trans-Golgi network (TGN) by the secretory pathway calcium ATPase1 (SPCA1) is required for the sorting of secretory cargo. How is Ca2+ retained in the lumen of the Golgi, and what is its role in cargo sorting? We show here that a soluble, lumenal Golgi resident protein, Cab45, is required for SPCA1-dependent Ca2+ import into the TGN; it binds secretory cargo in a Ca2+-dependent reaction and is required for its sorting at the TGN.

Regulated secretory proteins are thought to be sorted in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) via selective aggregation. To elucidate the biogenesis of the secretory granule in the exocrine pancreas, we reconstituted in vitro the conditions of pH and ions believed to exist in the TGN using the end product of this sorting process, the zymogen granule contents. Protein aggregation was dependent on pH (acidic) and on the presence of cations (10 mM Ca2+, 150 mM K+) to reproduce the pattern of proteins found in the granule. The constitutive secretory protein IgG was excluded from these aggregates. Zymogen aggregation correlated with the relative proportion of the major granule membrane protein GP-2 in the assay. These results show that the glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein GP-2 co-aggregates with zymogens in the acidic environment believed to exist in the pancreatic TGN, and thus suggest that GP-2 would function as a membrane anchor for zymogen aggregates, facilitating their entrapment in budding vesicles directed towards the regulated secretory pathway.

AbstractThe trans-Golgi network (TGN) has been known as a key platform to sort and transport proteins to their final destinations in post-Golgi membrane trafficking. However, how the TGN sorts proteins with different destinies still remains elusive. Here, we examined 3D localization and 4D dynamics of TGN-localized proteins of Arabidopsis thaliana that are involved in either secretory or vacuolar trafficking from the TGN, by a multicolor high-speed and high-resolution spinning-disk confocal microscopy approach that we developed. We demonstrate that TGN-localized proteins exhibit spatially and temporally distinct distribution. VAMP721 (R-SNARE), AP (adaptor protein complex)−1, and clathrin which are involved in secretory trafficking compose an exclusive subregion, whereas VAMP727 (R-SNARE) and AP-4 involved in vacuolar trafficking compose another subregion on the same TGN. Based on these findings, we propose that the single TGN has at least two subregions, or “zones”, responsible for distinct cargo sorting: the secretory-trafficking zone and the vacuolar-trafficking zone.

Membrane transporter proteins are essential for the maintenance of cellular ion homeostasis. In the secretory pathway, the P-type ATPase family of transporters is found in every compartment and the plasma membrane. Here, we report the identification of COD1/SPF1(control of HMG-CoA reductase degradation/SPF1) through genetic strategies intended to uncover genes involved in protein maturation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD), a quality control pathway that rids misfolded proteins. Cod1p is a putative ER P-type ATPase whose expression is regulated by the unfolded protein response, a stress-inducible pathway used to monitor and maintain ER homeostasis. COD1 mutants activate the unfolded protein response and are defective in a variety of functions apart from ERAD, which further support a homeostatic role.COD1 mutants display phenotypes similar to strains lacking Pmr1p, a Ca2+/Mn2+pump that resides in the medial-Golgi. Because of its localization, the previously reported role of PMR1 in ERAD was somewhat enigmatic. A clue to their respective roles came from observations that the two genes are not generally required for ERAD. We show that the specificity is rooted in a requirement for both genes in protein-linked oligosaccharide trimming, a requisite ER modification in the degradation of some misfolded glycoproteins. Furthermore, Cod1p, like Pmr1p, is also needed for the outer chain modification of carbohydrates in the Golgi apparatus despite its ER localization. In strains deleted of both genes, these activities are nearly abolished. The presence of either protein alone, however, can support partial function for both compartments. Taken together, our results reveal an interdependent relationship between two P-type ATPases to maintain homeostasis of the organelles where they reside.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a multifunctional organelle responsible for production of both lumenal and membrane components of secretory pathway compartments. Secretory proteins are folded, processed, and sorted in the ER lumen and lipid synthesis occurs on the ER membrane itself. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, synthesis of ER components is highly regulated: the ER-resident proteins by the unfolded protein response and membrane lipid synthesis by the inositol response. We demonstrate that these two responses are intimately linked, forming different branches of the same pathway. Furthermore, we present evidence indicating that this coordinate regulation plays a role in ER biogenesis.

We have reported that p22, an N-myristoylated EF-hand Ca2+-binding protein, associates with microtubules and plays a role in membrane trafficking. Here, we show that p22 also associates with membranes of the early secretory pathway membranes, in particular endoplasmic reticulum (ER). On binding of Ca2+, p22's ability to associate with membranes increases in an N-myristoylation-dependent manner, which is suggestive of a nonclassical Ca2+-myristoyl switch mechanism. To address the intracellular functions of p22, a digitonin-based “bulk microinjection” assay was developed to load cells with anti-p22, wild-type, or mutant p22 proteins. Antibodies against a p22 peptide induce microtubule depolymerization and ER fragmentation; this antibody-mediated effect is overcome by preincubation with the respective p22 peptide. In contrast, N-myristoylated p22 induces the formation of microtubule bundles, the accumulation of ER structures along the bundles as well as an increase in ER network formation. An N-myristoylated Ca2+-binding p22 mutant, which is unable to undergo Ca2+-mediated conformational changes, induces microtubule bundling and accumulation of ER structures along the bundles but does not increase ER network formation. Together, these data strongly suggest that p22 modulates the organization and dynamics of microtubule cytoskeleton in a Ca2+-independent manner and affects ER network assembly in a Ca2+-dependent manner.
