SNARE proteins are known to play a role in regulating intracellular protein transport between donor and target membranes. This docking and fusion process involves the interaction of specific vesicle-SNAREs (e.g. VAMP) with specific cognate target-SNAREs (e.g. syntaxin and SNAP-23). Using human SNAP-23 as the bait in a yeast two-hybrid screen of a human B-lymphocyte cDNA library, we have identified the 287-amino-acid SNARE protein syntaxin 11. Like other syntaxin family members, syntaxin 11 binds to the SNARE proteins VAMP and SNAP-23 in vitro and also exists in a complex with SNAP-23 in transfected HeLa cells and in native human B lymphocytes. Unlike other syntaxin family members, no obvious transmembrane domain is present in syntaxin 11. Nevertheless, syntaxin 11 is predominantly membrane-associated and colocalizes with the mannose 6-phosphate receptor on late endosomes and the trans-Golgi network. These data suggest that syntaxin 11 is a SNARE that acts to regulate protein transport between late endosomes and the trans-Golgi network in mammalian cells.

The highly conserved retromer complex has been linked to cargo retrieval from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. In this issue, Kvainickas et al. (2017. J.

Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201703015) fundamentally question the current retromer model and demonstrate that in mammalian cells, the individual retromer subcomplexes have functionally diverged to organize multiple distinct sorting pathways.

The GGA proteins are a novel family of proteins that were discovered nearly simultaneously by several labs studying very different aspects of membrane trafficking. Since then, several studies have described the GGA proteins and their functions in yeast and mammalian cells. Four protein domains are present in all GGA proteins, as defined by sequence homology and function. These different domains interact directly with ARF proteins, cargo and clathrin. Alteration of the levels of GGA proteins by gene knockout or overexpression affects specific trafficking events between the trans-Golgi network and endosomes. These data suggest that GGAs function as ARF-dependent, monomeric clathrin adaptors to facilitate cargo sorting and vesicle formation at the trans-Golgi network.

Rab6 protein belongs to the Sec4/Ypt/rab subfamily of small GTP-binding proteins involved in intracellular membrane trafficking in yeast and mammalian cells. Its localization both in medial and trans-Golgi network prompted us to study the effects of brefeldin A (BFA) on rab6p redistribution. By two techniques, indirect immunofluorescence and cell fractionation, we investigated the fate of rab6p and compared it to other Golgi or trans-Golgi network markers in BHK-21 and NIH-3T3 cells. BFA, at 5 micrograms/ml, induced redistribution of rab6p according to a biphasic process: during the first 10–15 minutes, tubulo-vesicular structures--colabelled with a bona fide medial Golgi marker called CTR 433--were observed; these structures were then replaced by punctate diffuse staining, which was stable for up to 3 hours. The 110 kDa peripheral membrane protein beta-COP was released much more rapidly from the Golgi membranes, whereas the trans-Golgi network marker TGN 38 relocated to the microtubule organizing center. The kinetics of reversion of BFA action on these antigens was also followed by immunofluorescence. Consistent with these results, rab6 antigen, originally found as 40% in the cytosolic versus 60% in the particulate (P 150,000 g) fraction, became almost entirely cytosolic; moreover, it partitioned in the aqueous phase of Triton X-114 whereas the membrane fraction was detergent-soluble. Rab6p did not become part of the coatomers after its BFA-induced release from Golgi structures. Three requirements seemed to be necessary for such a release: integrity of the microtubules, presence of energy, and a hypothetical trimeric G protein, as revealed by the respective roles of nocodazole, ATP depletion, and sensitivity to aluminium fluoride. Finally, we have shown that BFA does not prevent attachment of newly synthesized rab6p to membranes.

The specific transfer of vesicles between organelles is critical in generating and maintaining the organization of membrane compartments within cells. Syntaxin 6 is a recently discovered member of the syntaxin family, whose constituents are required components of several vesicle trafficking pathways. To better understand the function of syntaxin 6, we generated a panel of monoclonal antibodies that specifically recognize different epitopes of the protein. Immunoelectron microscopy shows syntaxin 6 primarily on the trans-Golgi network (TGN), where is partially colocalizes with the TGN adapter protein AP-1 on clathrin-coated membranes. Additional label is present on small vesicles in the vicinity of endosome-like structures. Immunoprecipitation of syntaxin 6 revealed that it is present in a complex or complexes with alpha-soluble NSF attachment protein, vesicle-associated membrane protein 2, or cellubrevin and a mammalian homologue of VPS45, which is a member of the sec1 family implicated in Golgi to prevacuolar compartment trafficking in yeast. We show that mammalian VPS45 is found in multiple tissues, is partially membrane associated, and is enriched in the Golgi region. Converging lines of evidence suggest that syntaxin 6 mediates a TGN trafficking event, perhaps targeting to endosomes in mammalian cells.

Planar cell polarity (PCP) requires the asymmetric sorting of distinct signaling receptors to distal and proximal surfaces of polarized epithelial cells. We have examined the transport of one PCP signaling protein, Vangl2, from the trans Golgi network (TGN) in mammalian cells. Using siRNA knockdown experiments, we find that the GTP-binding protein, Arfrp1, and the clathrin adaptor complex 1 (AP-1) are required for Vangl2 transport from the TGN. In contrast, TGN export of Frizzled 6, which localizes to the opposing epithelial surface from Vangl2, does not depend on Arfrp1 or AP-1. Mutagenesis studies identified a YYXXF sorting signal in the C-terminal cytosolic domain of Vangl2 that is required for Vangl2 traffic and interaction with the μ subunit of AP-1. We propose that Arfrp1 exposes a binding site on AP-1 that recognizes the Vangl2 sorting motif for capture into a transport vesicle destined for the proximal surface of a polarized epithelial cell.

Knockdown of the actin-severing protein actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin inhibited export of an exogenously expressed soluble secretory protein from Golgi membranes in Drosophila melanogaster and mammalian tissue culture cells. A stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture mass spectrometry–based protein profiling revealed that a large number of endogenous secretory proteins in mammalian cells were not secreted upon ADF/cofilin knockdown. Although many secretory proteins were retained, a Golgi-resident protein and a lysosomal hydrolase were aberrantly secreted upon ADF/cofilin knockdown. Overall, our findings indicate that inactivation of ADF/cofilin perturbed the sorting of a subset of both soluble and integral membrane proteins at the trans-Golgi network (TGN). We suggest that ADF/cofilin-dependent actin trimming generates a sorting domain at the TGN, which filters secretory cargo for export, and that uncontrolled growth of this domain causes missorting of proteins. This type of actin-dependent compartmentalization and filtering of secretory cargo at the TGN by ADF/cofilin could explain sorting of proteins that are destined to the cell surface.

We have previously identified a novel family of proteins called the GGAs (Golgi-localized, γ-ear-containing, ADP-ribosylation factor-binding proteins). These proteins consist of an NH2-terminal VHS domain, followed by a GAT domain, a variable domain, and a γ-adaptin ear homology domain. Studies from our own laboratory and others, making use of both yeast and mammals cells, indicate that the GGAs facilitate trafficking from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes. Here we have further investigated the function of the GGAs. We find that GGA-deficient yeast are not only defective in vacuolar protein sorting but they are also impaired in their ability to process α-factor. Using deletion mutants and chimeras, we show that the VHS domain is required for GGA function and that the VHS domain from Vps27p will not substitute for the GGA VHS domain. In contrast, the γ-adaptin ear homology domain contributes to GGA function but is not absolutely required, and full function can be restored by replacing the GGA ear domain with the γ-adaptin ear domain. Deleting the γ-adaptin gene together with the twoGGA genes exacerbates the phenotype in yeast, suggesting that they function on parallel pathways. In mammalian cells, the association of GGAs with the membrane is extremely unstable, which may account for their absence from purified clathrin-coated vesicles. Double- and triple-labeling immunofluorescence experiments indicate that the GGAs and AP-1 are associated with distinct populations of clathrin-coated vesicles budding from the trans-Golgi network. Together with results from other studies, our findings suggest that the GGAs act as monomeric adaptors, with the four domains involved in cargo selection, membrane localization, clathrin binding, and accessory protein recruitment.

Exocytic Pathway

Sec6/8 complex regulates delivery of exocytic vesicles to plasma membrane docking sites, but how it is recruited to specific sites in the exocytic pathway is poorly understood. We identified an Sec6/8 complex on trans-Golgi network (TGN) and plasma membrane in normal rat kidney (NRK) cells that formed either fibroblast- (NRK-49F) or epithelial-like (NRK-52E) intercellular junctions. At both TGN and plasma membrane, Sec6/8 complex colocalizes with exocytic cargo protein, vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSVG)-tsO45. Newly synthesized Sec6/8 complex is simultaneously recruited from the cytosol to both sites. However, brefeldin A treatment inhibits recruitment to the plasma membrane and other treatments that block exocytosis (e.g., expression of kinase-inactive protein kinase D and low temperature incubation) cause accumulation of Sec6/8 on the TGN, indicating that steady-state distribution of Sec6/8 complex depends on continuous exocytic vesicle trafficking. Addition of antibodies specific for TGN- or plasma membrane–bound Sec6/8 complexes to semiintact NRK cells results in cargo accumulation in a perinuclear region or near the plasma membrane, respectively. These results indicate that Sec6/8 complex is required for several steps in exocytic transport of vesicles between TGN and plasma membrane.

Furin is a dibasic endopeptidase responsible for the proteolytic maturation of many precursor proteins in the secretory and endocytic pathways of mammalian cells. The levels of furin expression in most cells are very low, and this has hampered attempts to identify the intracellular compartments in which endogenous furin is localized. We have used a specific antibody reagent to a sequence in the carboxy terminus of furin to perform immunofluorescent staining of mammalian cell lines. This antibody was sensitive enough to detect staining for furin in various cell lines. For the most part, furin staining was confined to a juxtanuclear structure characteristic of the Golgi complex. Analyses by video microscopy and confocal microscopy showed that the distribution of furin was distinct from that of mannosidase II, a marker of the Golgi stack, and most closely resembled that of TGN38, a marker of the trans-Golgi network. Therefore, our results suggest that endogenous furin is predominantly localized to the area of the Golgi complex, most likely within the trans-Golgi network.
