Transport vesicle formation requires the association of cytosolic proteins with the membrane. We have previously described a brefeldin-A sensitive, hydrophilic protein (p230), containing a very high frequency of heptad repeats, found in the cytosol and associated with Golgi membranes. We show here that p230 is localised on the trans-Golgi network, by immunogold labeling of HeLa cell cryosections using alpha 2,6 sialyltransferase as a compartment-specific marker. The role of G protein activators on the binding of p230 to Golgi membranes and in vesicle biogenesis has been investigated. Treatment of streptolysin-O permeabilised HeLa cells with either GTP gamma S or AlF4- resulted in accumulation of p230 on Golgi membranes. Furthermore, immunolabeling of isolated Golgi membranes treated with AlF4-, to induce the accumulation of vesicles, showed that p230 is predominantly localised to the cytoplasmic surface of trans-Golgi network-derived budding structures and small coated vesicles. p230-labeled vesicles have a thin (approximately 10 nm) electron dense cytoplasmic coat and could be readily distinguished from clathrin-coated vesicles. Dual immunogold labeling of perforated cells, or of cryosections of treated Golgi membranes, revealed that p230 and the trans-Golgi network-associated p200, which we show here to be distinct molecules, appear to be localised on separate populations of vesicles budding from the trans-Golgi network. These results strongly suggest the presence of distinct populations of non-clathrin coated vesicles derived from the trans-Golgi network. As p230 recycles between the cytosol and buds/vesicles of TGN membranes, a process regulated by G proteins, we propose that p230 is involved in the biogenesis of a specific population of non-clathrin coated vesicles.

Cells that express multiple connexins have the capacity to form heteromeric (mixed) gap junction hemichannels. We used a dominant negative connexin construct, consisting of bacterial β-galactosidase fused to the C terminus of connexin43 (Cx43/β-gal), to examine connexin compatibility in NIH 3T3 cells. Cx43/β-gal is retained in a perinuclear compartment and inhibits Cx43 transport to the cell surface. The intracellular connexin pool induced by Cx43/β-gal colocalized with a medial Golgi apparatus marker and was readily disassembled by treatment with brefeldin A. This was unexpected, since previous studies indicated that Cx43 assembly into hexameric hemichannels occurs in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and is sensitive to brefeldin A. Further analysis by sucrose gradient fractionation showed that Cx43 and Cx43/β-gal were assembled into a subhexameric complex. Cx43/β-gal also specifically interacted with Cx46, but not Cx32, consistent with the ability of Cx43/β-gal to simultaneously inhibit multiple connexins. We confirmed that interactions between Cx43/β-gal and Cx46 reflect the ability of Cx43 and Cx46 to form heteromeric complexes, using HeLa and alveolar epithelial cells, which express both connexins. In contrast, ROS osteoblastic cells, which differentially sort Cx43 and Cx46, did not form Cx43/Cx46 heteromers. Thus, cells have the capacity to regulate whether or not compatible connexins intermix.

The effects of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on glucose and amino acid uptake were investigated in fully differentiated L6 muscle cells, in order to determine whether the two processes are functionally related. Transport of both glucose and amino acid (methylaminoisobutyric acid, MeAIB) was activated rapidly in response to IGF-I. Stimulation reached a peak within 30 min and was sustained for up to 90 min. Maximal activation of either glucose or MeAIB transport was achieved at 3 nM IGF-I; the half-maximal activation (ED50) of glucose transport was at 107 pM and that of MeAIB transport was at 36 pM. Stimulation of amino acid uptake occurred in the absence or presence of glucose, suggesting that this response is not secondary to increased glucose intake. Incubation of cells for 1 h with Brefeldin A (5 micrograms/ml), which disassembles the Golgi apparatus and inhibits the secretory pathway in eukaryotic cells, had no effect on the acute IGF-I activation of glucose and MeAIB transport. Moreover, Brefeldin A caused wide redistribution of the trans-Golgi antigen TGN38, as assessed by subcellular fractionation, without affecting the distribution of glucose transporters. The finding that the degree of activation, time response and sensitivity to IGF-I and Brefeldin A were similar for both glucose and MeAIB transport suggests commonalities in the IGF-I mechanism of recruitment of glucose transporters and stimulation of amino acid transport through System A. An integral trans-Golgi network does not appear to be required for the acute IGF-I stimulation of glucose or amino acid transport, even though stimulation of glucose transport occurs through recruitment of glucose transporters from intracellular stores in these cells. We propose that the donor site of glucose transporters (and perhaps of amino acid transporters) involved in the acute response to IGF-I lies beyond the trans-Golgi network, perhaps in an endosomal compartment in close proximity to the plasma membrane.

We have previously shown that two serine residues present in two conserved regions of the bovine cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) cytoplasmic domain are phosphorylated in vivo (residues 2421 and 2492 of the full length bovine CI-MPR precursor). In this study, we have used CHO cells to investigate the phosphorylation state of these two serines along the different steps of the CI-MPR exocytic and endocytic recycling pathways. Transport and phosphorylation of the CI-MPR in the biosynthetic pathway were examined using deoxymannojirimycin (dMM), a specific inhibitor of the cis-Golgi processing enzyme alpha-mannosidase I which leads to the accumulation of N-linked high mannose oligosaccharides on glycoproteins. Upon removal of dMM, normal processing to complex-type oligosaccharides (galactosylation and then sialylation) occurs on the newly synthesized glycoproteins, including the CI-MPR which could then be purified and analyzed on lectin affinity columns. Phosphorylation of the newly synthesized CI-MPR was concomitant with the sialylation of its oligosaccharides and appeared as a major albeit transient modification. Phosphorylation of the cell surface CI-MPR was examined during its endocytosis as well as its return to the Golgi using antibody tagging and exogalactosylation. The cell surface CI-MPR was not phosphorylated when it entered clathrin-coated pits or when it moved to the early and late endosomes. In contrast, the surface CI-MPR was phosphorylated when it had been resialylated upon its return to the trans-Golgi network. Subcellular fractionation experiments showed that the phosphorylated CI-MPR and the corresponding kinase were found in clathrin-coated vesicles. Collectively, these results indicate that phosphorylation of the two serines in the CI-MPR cytoplasmic domain is associated with a single step of transport of its recycling pathways and occurs when this receptor is in the trans-Golgi network and/or has left this compartment via clathrin-coated vesicles.

Brefeldin A (BFA) has a dramatic effect on the morphology of the Golgi apparatus and induces a rapid redistribution of Golgi proteins into the ER (Lippincott-Schwartz, J., L. C. Yuan, J. S. Bonifacino, and R. D. Klausner. 1989. Cell. 56:801-813). To date, no evidence that BFA affects the morphology of the trans-Golgi network (TGN) has been presented. We describe the results of experiments, using a polyclonal antiserum to a TGN specific integral membrane protein (TGN38) (Luzio, J.P., B. Brake, G. Banting, K. E. Howell, P. Braghetta, and K. K. Stanley. 1990. Biochem. J. 270:97-102), which demonstrate that incubation of cells with BFA does induce morphological changes to the TGN. However, rather than redistributing to the ER, the majority of the TGN collapses around the microtubule organizing center (MTOC). The effect of BFA upon the TGN is (a) independent of protein synthesis, (b) fully reversible (c) microtubule dependent (as shown in nocodazole-treated cells), and (d) relies upon the hydrolysis of GTP (as shown by performing experiments in the presence of GTP gamma S). ATP depletion reduces the ability of BFA to induce a redistribution of Golgi proteins into the ER; however, it has no effect upon the BFA-induced relocalizations of the TGN. These data confirm that the TGN is an organelle which is independent of the Golgi, and suggest a dynamic interaction between the TGN and microtubules which is centered around the MTOC.

In eukaryotes, clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) facilitate the internalization of material from the cell surface as well as the movement of cargo in post-Golgi trafficking pathways. This diversity of functions is partially provided by multiple monomeric and multimeric clathrin adaptor complexes that provide compartment and cargo selectivity. The adaptor-protein AP-1 complex operates as part of the secretory pathway at the trans-Golgi network, while the AP-2 complex and the TPLATE complex (TPC) jointly operate at the plasma membrane to execute clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Key to our further understanding of clathrin-mediated trafficking in plants will be the comprehensive identification and characterization of the network of evolutionarily conserved and plant-specific core and accessory machinery involved in the formation and targeting of CCVs. To facilitate these studies, we have analyzed the proteome of enriched trans-Golgi network/early endosome-derived and endocytic CCVs isolated from dividing and expanding suspension-cultured Arabidopsis cells. Tandem mass spectrometry analysis results were validated by differential chemical labeling experiments to identify proteins co-enriching with CCVs. Proteins enriched in CCVs included previously characterized CCV components and cargos such as the vacuolar sorting receptors in addition to conserved and plant-specific components whose function in clathrin-mediated trafficking has not been previously defined. Notably, in addition to AP-1 and AP-2, all subunits of the AP-4 complex, but not AP-3 or AP-5, were found to be in high abundance in the CCV proteome. The association of AP-4 with suspension-cultured Arabidopsis CCVs is further supported via additional biochemical data.

The 100-110-kD proteins (alpha-, beta-, beta'-, and gamma-adaptins) of clathrin-coated vesicles and the 110-kD protein (beta-COP) of the nonclathrin-coated vesicles that mediate constitutive transport through the Golgi have homologous protein sequences. To determine whether homologous processes are involved in assembly of the two types of coated vesicles, the membrane binding properties of their coat proteins were compared. After treatment of MDBK cells with the fungal metabolite Brefeldin A (BFA), beta-COP was redistributed to the cytoplasm within 15 s, gamma-adaptin and clathrin in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) dispersed within 30 s, but the alpha-adaptin and clathrin present on coated pits and vesicles derived from the plasma membrane remained membrane associated even after a 15-min exposure to BFA. In PtK1 cells and MDCK cells, BFA did not affect beta-COP binding or Golgi morphology but still induced redistribution of gamma-adaptin and clathrin from TGN membranes to the cytoplasm. Thus BFA affects the binding of coat proteins to membranes in the Golgi region (Golgi apparatus and TGN) but not plasma membranes. However, the Golgi binding interactions of beta-COP and gamma-adaptin are distinct and differentially sensitive to BFA. BFA treatment did not release gamma-adaptin or clathrin from purified clathrin-coated vesicles, suggesting that their distribution to the cytoplasm after BFA treatment of cells was due to interference with their rebinding to TGN membranes after a normal cycle of disassembly. This was confirmed using an in vitro assay in which gamma-adaptin binding to TGN membranes was blocked by BFA and enhanced by GTP gamma S, similar to the binding of beta-COP to Golgi membranes. These results suggest the involvement of GTP-dependent proteins in the association of the 100-kD coat proteins with membranes in the Golgi region of the cell.

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.

Although uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles is a key event in clathrin-mediated endocytosis it is unclear what prevents uncoating of clathrin-coated pits before they pinch off to become clathrin-coated vesicles. We have shown that the J-domain proteins auxilin and GAK are required for uncoating by Hsc70 in vitro. In the present study, we expressed auxilin in cultured cells to determine if this would block endocytosis by causing premature uncoating of clathrin-coated pits. We found that expression of auxilin indeed inhibited endocytosis. However, expression of auxilin with its J-domain mutated so that it no longer interacted with Hsc70 also inhibited endocytosis as did expression of the clathrin-assembly protein, AP180, or its clathrin-binding domain. Accompanying this inhibition, we observed a marked decrease in clathrin associated with the plasma membrane and the trans-Golgi network, which provided us with an opportunity to determine whether the absence of clathrin from clathrin-coated pits affected the distribution of the clathrin assembly proteins AP1 and AP2. Surprisingly we found almost no change in the association of AP2 and AP1 with the plasma membrane and the trans-Golgi network, respectively. This was particularly obvious when auxilin or GAK was expressed with functional J-domains since, in these cases, almost all of the clathrin was sequestered in granules that also contained Hsc70 and auxilin or GAK. We conclude that expression of clathrin-binding proteins inhibits clathrin-mediated endocytosis by sequestering clathrin so that it is no longer available to bind to nascent pits but that assembly proteins bind to these pits independently of clathrin.

The trans-Golgi network (TGN) of MDCK cells is exquisitely sensitive to the fungal metabolite brefeldin A (BFA), in contrast to the refractory Golgi stack of these cells. At a concentration of 1 microgram/ml, BFA promoted extensive tubulation of the TGN while the medical Golgi marker alpha-mannosidase II was not affected. Tubules emerging minutes after addition of the drug contained both the apical marker influenza hemagglutinin (HA), previously accumulated at 20 degrees C, and the fusion protein interleukin receptor/TGN38 (TGG), a TGN marker that recycles basolaterally, indicating that, in contrast to TGN vesicles, TGN-derived tubules cannot sort apical and basolateral proteins. After 60 minutes treatment with BFA, HA and TGG tubules formed extensive networks widely spread throughout the cell, different from the focused centrosomal localization previously described in non-polarized cells. The TGG network partially codistributed with an early endosomal tubular network loaded with transferrin, suggesting that the TGG and endosomal networks had fused or that TGG had entered the endosomal network via surface recycling and endocytosis. The extensive structural alterations of the TGN were accompanied by functional disruptions, such as the extensive mis-sorting of influenza HA, and by the release of the TGN marker gamma-adaptin. Our results suggest the involvement of BFA-sensitive adaptor proteins in TGN-->surface transport.
