Abstract
The small GTPase Arf6 is transiently associated with the ingressing cleavage furrow and subsequently targeted to the Flemming body during cytokinesis, suggesting its activation around the cleavage furrow. Here, we show that EFA6 (exchange factor for Arf6) localizes on the cleavage furrow through its PH domain. Time-lapse analysis showed that both EFA6 and Arf6 are transiently localized around the ingressing cleavage furrow, but only Arf6 is subsequently targeted to the Flemming body. Expression of an EFA6 mutant suppresses Arf6 recruitment onto the Flemming body. These results suggest that EFA6 participates in activation of Arf6 around the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis.

Abstract
In developing brains, neural progenitors exhibit cell cycle-dependent nuclear movement within the ventricular zone [interkinetic nuclear migration (INM)] and actively proliferate to produce daughter progenitors and/or neurons, whereas newly generated neurons exit from the cell cycle and begin pial surface-directed migration and maturation. Dysregulation of the balance between the proliferation and the cell cycle exit in neural progenitors is one of the major causes of microcephaly (small brain). Recent studies indicate that cell cycle machinery influences not only the proliferation but also INM in neural progenitors. Furthermore, several cell cycle-related proteins, including p27(kip1) , p57(kip2) , Cdk5, and Rb, regulate the migration of neurons in the postmitotic state, suggesting that the growth arrest confers dual functions on cell cycle regulators. Consistently, several types of microcephaly occur in conjunction with neuronal migration disorders, such as periventricular heterotopia and lissencephaly. However, cell cycle re-entry by disturbance of growth arrest in mature neurons is thought to trigger neuronal cell death in Alzheimer's disease. In this review, we introduce the cell cycle protein-mediated regulation of two types of nuclear movement, INM and neuronal migration, during cerebral cortical development, and discuss the roles of growth arrest in cortical development and neurological disorders.

Abstract
Three Sec7 guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) activate ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) to facilitate coating of transport vesicles within the secretory and endosomal pathways. GBF1 recruits COPI to pre-Golgi and Golgi compartments, whereas BIG1 and BIG2 recruit AP1 and GGA clathrin adaptors to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. Here, we report a functional cascade between these GEFs by showing that GBF1-activated ARFs (ARF4 and ARF5, but not ARF3) facilitate BIG1 and BIG2 recruitment to the TGN. We localize GBF1 ultrastructurally to the pre-Golgi, the Golgi, and also the TGN. Our findings suggest a model in which GBF1 localized within pre-Golgi and Golgi compartments mediates ARF activation to facilitate recruitment of COPI to membranes, whereas GBF1 localized at the TGN mediates ARF activation that leads to the recruitment of BIG1 and BIG2 to the TGN. Membrane-associated BIG1/2 then activates ARFs that recruit clathrin adaptors. In this cascade, an early acting GEF (GBF1) activates ARFs that mediate recruitment of late acting GEFs (BIG1/2) to coordinate coating events within the pre-Golgi/Golgi/TGN continuum. Such coordination may optimize the efficiency and/or selectivity of cargo trafficking through the compartments of the secretory pathway.

Abstract
Upon cell division, not only cells themselves but also their organelles undergo drastic shape changes, although the behaviors of organelles other than the Golgi apparatus remain poorly understood. We followed the spatiotemporal changes in the localization of transferrin receptor (TfnR) and other proteins. In early mitotic phases, a population of proteins cycling through the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC) exhibits a distinct spatiotemporal change from that of Golgi proteins. In prophase/prometaphase, when the cell surface-to-volume ratio is reaching its minimum, the ERC proteins are transiently assembled around the centrated centrosome in a microtubule- and dynein-dependent manner, and soon separated polewards into two clusters concomitant with separation of duplicated centrosomes. Electron microscopic analysis revealed that endosomal vesicles containing endocytosed transferrin cluster tightly around centrosomes without fusing with one another. As cytokinesis proceeds, the clusters gradually collapse, and the ERC proteins reassemble around the furrowing equatorial region. FRAP (fluorescence recovery after photobleaching) analyses of EGFP-TfnR-expressing cells revealed minimal membrane exchange between the endosomal clusters and other cellular compartments until anaphase/telophase, when membrane traffic resumes. Our observations indicate that ERC clustering around centrosomes plays a fundamental role in restricting membrane delivery to the plasma membrane during early mitotic phases, when the cell surface-to-volume ratio reaches its minimum.

Abstract
During cortical development, proliferating neural progenitors exhibit polarized apical and basolateral membranes that are maintained by tightly controlled and membrane-specific vesicular trafficking pathways. Disruption of polarity through impaired delivery of proteins can alter cell fate decisions and consequent expansion of the progenitor pool, as well as impact the integrity of the neuroependymal lining. Loss of neuroependymal integrity disrupts radial glial scaffolding and alters initial neuronal migration from the ventricular zone. Vesicle trafficking is also required for maintenance of lipid and protein cycling within the leading and trailing edge of migratory neurons, as well as dendrites and synapses of mature neurons. Defects in this transport machinery disrupt neuronal identity, migration, and connectivity and give rise to a malformation of cortical development termed as periventricular heterotopia (PH). PH is characterized by a reduction in brain size, ectopic clusters of neurons localized along the lateral ventricle, and epilepsy and dyslexia. These anatomical anomalies correlate with developmental impairments in neural progenitor proliferation and specification, migration from loss of neuroependymal integrity and neuronal motility, and aberrant neuronal process extension. Genes causal for PH regulate vesicle-mediated endocytosis along an actin cytoskeletal network. This paper explores the role of these dynamic processes in cortical development and disease.

Abstract
Small GTPases ARF1 and ARF3 localize mainly to the Golgi apparatus, where they trigger formation of coated carrier vesicles. We previously showed that BIG2, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor specific for ARF1 and ARF3, localizes not only to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) but also to recycling endosomes, where it is involved in regulating the integrity of recycling endosomes. However, it is not yet clear whether ARF1 and ARF3 act downstream of BIG2 to ensure endosome integrity. In this study, we show that EGFP-tagged ARF1 and ARF3 localize to endosomal compartments containing endocytosed transferrin. We further demonstrate that simultaneous depletion of ARF1 and ARF3 induces tubulation of recycling endosomal compartments positive for transferrin receptor, Rab4, and Rab11, but does not significantly affect the integrity of the Golgi apparatus or early or late endosomes. Moreover, the simultaneous depletion of ARF1 and ARF3 suppresses recycling of transferrin but does not affect either its endocytosis or the retrograde transport of TGN38 from early/recycling endosomes to the TGN. In addition, depletion of ARF1 and ARF3 does not affect retrograde transport of CD4-furin from late endosomes to the TGN, or of endocytosed EGF from late endosomes to lysosomes. These results indicate that ARF1 and ARF3 are redundantly required for the integrity of recycling endosomes, and that they regulate transferrin recycling from endosomes to the plasma membrane, but not retrograde transport from endosomal compartments to the TGN.

Abstract
Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein (BIG)2 activates ADP-ribosylation factors, ∼20-kDa GTPase proteins critical for continuity of intracellular vesicular trafficking by accelerating the replacement of ADP-ribosylation factor-bound GDP with GTP. Mechanisms of additional BIG2 function(s) are less clear. Here, the participation of BIG2 in integrin β1 cycling through actin dynamics during cell migration was identified using small interfering RNA (siRNA) and difference gel electrophoresis analyses. After a 72-h incubation with BIG2 siRNA, levels of cytosolic Arp2, Arp3, cofilin-1, phosphocofilin, vinculin, and Grb2, known to be involved in the effects of integrin β1-extracellular matrix interactions on actin function and cell translocation, were increased. Treatment of HeLa cells with BIG2 siRNA resulted in perinuclear accumulation of integrin β1 and its delayed return to the cell surface. Motility of BIG2-depleted cells was simultaneously decreased, as were actin-based membrane protrusions and accumulations of Arp2, Arp3, cofilin, and phosphocofilin at the leading edges of migrating cells, in wound-healing assays. Taken together, these data reveal a mechanism(s) through which BIG2 may coordinate actin cytoskeleton mechanics and membrane traffic in cell migration via integrin β1 action and actin functions.

Abstract
In neutrophils, Arf1 is activated upon GPCR stimulation. GBF1, a GEF for Arf, is primarily responsible for Arf1 activation upon GPCR stimulation and is important for chemotaxis and superoxide production. GBF1 also binds to products of PI3Kγ . The results indicate a novel mechanism that links PI3Kγ with chemotaxis and superoxide production. Most chemoattractants for neutrophils bind to the Gαi family of heterotrimeric G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) and release Gβγ subunits to activate chemotaxis and superoxide production. GIT2, a GTPase-activating protein for Arf1, forms a complex with Gβγ and is integral for directional sensing and suppression of superoxide production. Here we show that GBF1, a guanine nucleotide exchanging factor for Arf-GTPases, is primarily responsible for Arf1 activation upon GPCR stimulation and is important for neutrophil chemotaxis and superoxide production. We find that GBF1 bears a novel module, namely binding to products of phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3K), which binds to products of PI3Kγ. Through this binding, GBF1 is translocated from the Golgi to the leading edge upon GPCR stimulation to activate Arf1 and recruit p22phox and GIT2 to the leading edge. Moreover, GBF1-mediated Arf1 activation is necessary to unify cell polarity during chemotaxis. Our results identify a novel mechanism that links PI3Kγ activity with chemotaxis and superoxide production in GPCR signaling.

Abstract
A small GTPase, Arf6, is involved in cytokinesis by localizing to the Flemming body (the midbody). However, it remains unknown how Arf6 contributes to cytokinesis. Here, we demonstrate that Arf6 directly interacts with mitotic kinesin-like protein 1 (MKLP1), a Flemming body-localizing protein essential for cytokinesis. The crystal structure of the Arf6-MKLP1 complex reveals that MKLP1 forms a homodimer flanked by two Arf6 molecules, forming a 2:2 heterotetramer containing an extended β-sheet composed of 22 β-strands that spans the entire heterotetramer, suitable for interaction with a concave membrane surface at the cleavage furrow. We show that, during cytokinesis, Arf6 is first accumulated around the cleavage furrow and, prior to abscission, recruited onto the Flemming body via interaction with MKLP1. We also show by structure-based mutagenesis and siRNA-mediated knockdowns that the complex formation is required for completion of cytokinesis. A model based on these results suggests that the Arf6-MKLP1 complex plays a crucial role in cytokinesis by connecting the microtubule bundle and membranes at the cleavage plane.

Abstract
Protein trafficking through the secretory pathway plays a key role in epithelial organ development and function. The expansion of tracheal tubes in Drosophila depends on trafficking of coatomer protein complex I (COPI)-coated vesicles between the Golgi complex and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). However, it is not clear how this pathway is regulated. Here we describe an essential function of the Sec7 domain guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) gartenzwerg (garz) in epithelial tube morphogenesis and protein secretion. garz is essential for the recruitment of COPI components and for normal Golgi organization. A GFP-Garz fusion protein is distributed in the cytoplasm and accumulates at the cis-Golgi. Localization to the Golgi requires the C-terminal part of Garz. Conversely, blocking the GDP-GTP nucleotide exchange reaction leads to constitutive Golgi localization, suggesting that Garz cycles in a GEF-activity-dependent manner between cytoplasmic and Golgi-membrane-localized pools. The related human ARF-GEF protein GBF1 can substitute for garz function in Drosophila tracheal cells, indicating that the relevant functions of these proteins are conserved. We show that garz interacts genetically with the ARF1 homolog ARF79F and with the ARF1-GAP homolog Gap69C, thus placing garz in a regulatory circuit that controls COPI trafficking in Drosophila. Interestingly, overexpression of garz causes accumulation of secreted proteins in the ER, suggesting that excessive garz activity leads to increased retrograde trafficking. Thus, garz might regulate epithelial tube morphogenesis and secretion by controlling the rate of trafficking of COPI vesicles.

Abstract
Brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein (BIG) 1 activates class I ADP ribosylation factors (ARFs) by accelerating the replacement of bound GDP with GTP to initiate recruitment of coat proteins for membrane vesicle formation. Among proteins that interact with BIG1, kinesin family member 21A (KIF21A), a plus-end-directed motor protein, moves cargo away from the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) on microtubules. Because KANK1, a protein containing N-terminal KN, C-terminal ankyrin-repeat, and intervening coiled-coil domains, has multiple actions in cells and also interacts with KIF21A, we explored a possible interaction between it and BIG1. We obtained evidence for a functional and physical association between these proteins, and found that the effects of BIG1 and KANK1 depletion on cell migration in wound-healing assays were remarkably similar. Treatment of cells with BIG1- or KANK1-specific siRNA interfered significantly with directed cell migration and initial orientation of Golgi/MTOC toward the leading edge, which was not mimicked by KIF21A depletion. Although colocalization of overexpressed KANK1 and endogenous BIG1 in HeLa cells was not clear microscopically, their reciprocal immunoprecipitation (IP) is compatible with the presence of small percentages of each protein in the same complexes. Depletion or overexpression of BIG1 protein appeared not to affect KANK1 distribution. Our data identify actions of both BIG1 and KANK1 in regulating cell polarity during directed migration; these actions are consistent with the presence of both BIG1 and KANK1 in dynamic multimolecular complexes that maintain Golgi/MTOC orientation, differ from those that might contain all three proteins (BIG1, KIF21A, and KANK1), and function in directed transport along microtubules.

Abstract
The Golgi serves as a hub for intracellular membrane traffic in the eukaryotic cell. Transport within the early secretory pathway, that is within the Golgi and from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum, is mediated by COPI-coated vesicles. The COPI coat shares structural features with the clathrin coat, but differs in the mechanisms of cargo sorting and vesicle formation. The small GTPase Arf1 initiates coating on activation and recruits en bloc the stable heptameric protein complex coatomer that resembles the inner and the outer shells of clathrin-coated vesicles. Different binding sites exist in coatomer for membrane machinery and for the sorting of various classes of cargo proteins. During the budding of a COPI vesicle, lipids are sorted to give a liquid-disordered phase composition. For the release of a COPI-coated vesicle, coatomer and Arf cooperate to mediate membrane separation.

Abstract
Type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases) are putative phospholipid flippases that translocate phospholipids from the exoplasmic (lumenal) to the cytoplasmic leaflet of lipid bilayers and are believed to function in complex with CDC50 proteins. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, five P4-ATPases are localized to specific cellular compartments and are required for vesicle-mediated protein transport from these compartments, suggesting a role for phospholipid translocation in vesicular transport. The human genome encodes 14 P4-ATPases and three CDC50 proteins. However, the subcellular localization of human P4-ATPases and their interactions with CDC50 proteins are poorly understood. Here, we show that class 5 (ATP10A, ATP10B, and ATP10D) and class 6 (ATP11A, ATP11B, and ATP11C) P4-ATPases require CDC50 proteins, primarily CDC50A, for their exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and final subcellular localization. In contrast, class 2 P4-ATPases (ATP9A and ATP9B) are able to exit the ER in the absence of exogenous CDC50 expression: ATP9B, but not ATP11B, was able to exit the ER despite depletion of CDC50 proteins by RNAi. Although ATP9A and ATP9B show a high overall sequence similarity, ATP9A localizes to endosomes and the trans-Golgi network (TGN), whereas ATP9B localizes exclusively to the TGN. A chimeric ATP9 protein in which the N-terminal cytoplasmic region of ATP9A was replaced with the corresponding region of ATP9B was localized exclusively to the Golgi. These results indicate that ATP9B is able to exit the ER and localize to the TGN independently of CDC50 proteins and that this protein contains a Golgi localization signal in its N-terminal cytoplasmic region.

Abstract
Inhibition in the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) is mediated by γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The fast inhibitory actions of GABA are mediated by GABA type A receptors (GABA(A)Rs); they mediate both phasic and tonic inhibition in the brain and are the principle sites of action for anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, and sedative-hypnotic agents that include benzodiazepines, barbiturates, neurosteroids, and some general anesthetics. GABA(A)Rs are heteropentameric ligand-gated ion channels that are found concentrated at inhibitory postsynaptic sites where they mediate phasic inhibition and at extrasynaptic sites where they mediate tonic inhibition. The efficacy of inhibition and thus neuronal excitability is critically dependent on the accumulation of specific GABA(A)R subtypes at inhibitory synapses. Here we evaluate how neurons control the number of GABA(A)Rs on the neuronal plasma membrane together with their selective stabilization at synaptic sites. We then go on to examine the impact that these processes have on the strength of synaptic inhibition and behavior.

Abstract
We screened a panel of compounds derived from Exo2 - a drug that perturbs post-Golgi compartments and trafficking in mammalian cells - for their effect on the secretory pathway in Arabidopsis root epidermal cells. While Exo2 and most related compounds had no significant effect, one Exo2 derivative, named LG8, induced severe morphological alterations in both the Golgi (at high concentrations) and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). LG8 causes the ER to form foci of interconnecting tubules, which at the ultrastructural level appear similar to those previously reported in Arabidopsis roots after treatment with the herbicide oryzalin. In cotyledonary leaves, LG8 causes redistribution of a trans Golgi network (TGN) marker to the vacuole. LG8 affects the anterograde secretory pathway by inducing secretion of vacuolar cargo and preventing the brassinosteroid receptor BRI1 from reaching the plasma membrane. Uptake and arrival at the TGN of the endocytic marker FM4-64 is not affected. Unlike the ADP ribosylation factor-GTP exchange factor (ARF-GEF) inhibitor brefeldin A (BFA), LG8 affects these post-Golgi events without causing the formation of BFA bodies. Up to concentrations of 50 µm, the effects of LG8 are reversible.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) and their activating guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) play key roles in membrane traffic and signaling. All ARF GEFs share a ∼200-residue Sec7 domain (Sec7d) that alone catalyzes the GDP to GTP exchange that activates ARF. We determined the crystal structure of human BIG2 Sec7d. A C-terminal loop immediately following helix J (loop>J) was predicted to form contacts with helix H and the switch I region of the cognate ARF, suggesting that loop>J may participate in the catalytic reaction. Indeed, we identified multiple alanine substitutions within loop>J of the full length and/or Sec7d of two large brefeldin A-sensitive GEFs (GBF1 and BIG2) and one small brefeldin A-resistant GEF (ARNO) that abrogated binding of ARF and a single alanine substitution that allowed ARF binding but inhibited GDP to GTP exchange. Loop>J sequences are highly conserved, suggesting that loop>J plays a crucial role in the catalytic activity of all ARF GEFs. Using GEF mutants unable to bind ARF, we showed that GEFs associate with membranes independently of ARF and catalyze ARF activation in vivo only when membrane-associated. Our structural, cell biological, and biochemical findings identify loop>J as a key regulatory motif essential for ARF binding and GDP to GTP exchange by GEFs and provide evidence for the requirement of membrane association during GEF activity.

Abstract
Rab11 family interacting protein 3/arfophilin-1 is a dual effector of Rab11 and Arf6 and exhibits Rab11-dependent localization to recycling endosomes in interphase. Furthermore, FIP3 undergoes dynamic redistribution to the intercellular bridge during cytokinesis. However, regulation of FIP3 redistribution and its local function by Rab11 and Arf6 has remained controversial. In this study, we developed a procedure for detecting endogenous FIP3, Arf6, and Rab11 and determined that FIP3 is localized near the intercellular bridge during cytokinesis, and to the Flemming body (the midbody) immediately before abscission; Rab11 is localized near the intercellular bridge, but not to the Flemming body; and Arf6 is localized to the Flemming body. Time-lapse analyses showed that FIP3 is transported to the intercellular bridge during cytokinesis, together with Rab11; before abscission, FIP3 becomes localized to the Flemming body, where Arf6 is already present. After abscission, FIP3 and Arf6 are incorporated into one of the daughter cells as a Flemming body remnant. Based on these observations, we propose that FIP3 localization to recycling endosomes in interphase and their transport to the intercellular bridge during cytokinesis depend on Rab11, and targeting of FIP3-positive endosomal vesicles to the Flemming body in the abscission phase depends on Arf6.

Abstract
Proper developmental, neural cell-type-specific, and activity-dependent regulation of GABAergic transmission is essential for virtually all aspects of CNS function. The number of GABA(A) receptors in the postsynaptic membrane directly controls the efficacy of GABAergic synaptic transmission. Thus, regulated trafficking of GABA(A) receptors is essential for understanding brain function in both health and disease. Here we summarize recent progress in the understanding of mechanisms that allow dynamic adaptation of cell surface expression and postsynaptic accumulation and function of GABA(A) receptors. This includes activity-dependent and cell-type-specific changes in subunit gene expression, assembly of subunits into receptors, as well as exocytosis, endocytic recycling, diffusion dynamics, and degradation of GABA(A) receptors. In particular, we focus on the roles of receptor-interacting proteins, scaffold proteins, synaptic adhesion proteins, and enzymes that regulate the trafficking and function of receptors and associated proteins. In addition, we review neuropeptide signaling pathways that affect neural excitability through changes in GABA(A)R trafficking.

Abstract
Arfaptins (arfaptin-1 and arfaptin-2/POR1) were originally identified as binding partners of the Arf small GTPases. Both proteins contain a BAR (Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs) domain, which participates in membrane deformation. Here we show that arfaptins associate with trans-Golgi membranes. Unexpectedly, Arl1 (Arf-like 1), but not Arfs, determines the trans-Golgi association of arfaptins. We also demonstrate that arfaptins interact with Arl1 through their BAR domain-containing region and compete for Arl1 binding with golgin-97 and golgin-245/p230, both of which also bind to Arl1 through their GRIP (golgin-97/RanBP2/Imh1p/p230) domains. However, arfaptins and these golgins show only limited colocalization at the trans-Golgi. Time-lapse imaging of cells overexpressing fluorescent protein-tagged arfaptins and golgin-97 reveals that arfaptins, but not golgin-97, are included in vesicular and tubular structures emanating from the Golgi region. These observations indicate that arfaptins are recruited onto trans-Golgi membranes by interacting with Arl1, and capable of inducing membrane deformation via their BAR domains.

Abstract
Brefeldin A-mediated inhibition of ADP ribosylation factor (Arf) GTPases and their guanine nucleotide exchange factors, Arf-GEFs, has been a cornerstone of membrane trafficking research for many years. Brefeldin A (BFA) is relatively non-selective inhibiting at least three targets in human cells, Golgi brefeldin A resistance factor 1 (GBF1), brefeldin A inhibited guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (BIG1) and brefeldin A inhibited guanine nucleotide exchange factor 2 (BIG2). Here, we show that the previously described compound Exo2 acts through inhibition of Arf-GEF function, but causes other phenotypic changes that are not GBF1 related. We describe the engineering of Exo2 to produce LG186, a more selective, reversible inhibitor of Arf-GEF function. Using multiple-cell-based assays and GBF1 mutants, our data are most consistent with LG186 acting by selective inhibition of GBF1. Unlike other Arf-GEF and reported GBF1 inhibitors including BFA, Exo2 and Golgicide A, LG186 induces disassembly of the Golgi stack in both human and canine cells.

Abstract
Although membrane trafficking pathways are involved in basic cellular functions, the evolutionally expanded number of their related family proteins suggests additional roles for membrane trafficking in higher organisms. Here, we show that several Rab-dependent trafficking pathways differentially participate in neuronal migration, an essential step for the formation of the mammalian-specific six-layered brain structure. In vivo electroporation-mediated suppression of Rab5 or dynamin to block endocytosis caused a severe neuronal migration defect in mouse cerebral cortex. Among many downstream endocytic pathways, suppression of Rab11-dependent recycling pathways exhibited a similar migration disorder, whereas inhibition of Rab7-dependent lysosomal degradation pathways affected only the final phase of neuronal migration and dendrite morphology. Inhibition of Rab5 or Rab11 perturbed the trafficking of N-cadherin, whose suppression also disturbed neuronal migration. Taken together, our findings reveal physiological roles of endocytic pathways, each of which has specific functions in distinct steps of neuronal migration and maturation during mammalian brain formation.

Abstract
Rab14 binds in a GTP-dependent manner to RUFY1/Rabip4, which had been originally identified as a Rab4 effector. We suggest that Rab14 and Rab4 act sequentially; Rab14 is required for recruitment of RUFY1 onto endosomes and subsequent RUFY1 interaction with Rab4 may allow endosomal tethering and fusion. The small GTPase Rab14 localizes to early endosomes and the trans-Golgi network, but its cellular functions on endosomes and its functional relationship with other endosomal Rab proteins are poorly understood. Here, we report that Rab14 binds in a GTP-dependent manner to RUFY1/Rabip4, which had been originally identified as a Rab4 effector. Rab14 colocalizes well with Rab4 on peripheral endosomes. Depletion of Rab14, but not Rab4, causes dissociation of RUFY1 from endosomal membranes. Coexpression of RUFY1 with either Rab14 or Rab4 induces clustering and enlargement of endosomes, whereas a RUFY1 mutant lacking the Rab4-binding region does not induce a significant morphological change in the endosomal structures even when coexpressed with Rab14 or Rab4. These findings suggest that Rab14 and Rab4 act sequentially, together with RUFY1; Rab14 is required for recruitment of RUFY1 onto endosomal membranes, and subsequent RUFY1 interaction with Rab4 may allow endosomal tethering and fusion. Depletion of Rab14 or RUFY1, as well as Rab4, inhibits efficient recycling of endocytosed transferrin, suggesting that Rab14 and Rab4 regulate endosomal functions through cooperative interactions with their dual effector, RUFY1.

Abstract
Arf3 associates with the TGN in a manner that is both temperature-sensitive and uniquely dependent on BIGs. TGN localization and release at 20°C are readily separated and depend on pairs of residues absolutely conserved and unique to Arf3 present at opposite ends of the protein. These results suggest that Arf3 plays a unique function at the TGN. It is widely assumed that class I and II Arfs function interchangeably throughout the Golgi complex. However, we report here that in vivo, Arf3 displays several unexpected properties. Unlike other Golgi-localized Arfs, Arf3 associates selectively with membranes of the trans-Golgi network (TGN) in a manner that is both temperature-sensitive and uniquely dependent on guanine nucleotide exchange factors of the BIGs family. For example, BIGs knockdown redistributed Arf3 but not Arf1 from Golgi membranes. Furthermore, shifting temperature to 20°C, a temperature known to block cargo in the TGN, selectively redistributed Arf3 from Golgi membranes. Arf3 redistribution occurred slowly, suggesting it resulted from a change in membrane composition. Arf3 knockdown and overexpression experiments suggest that redistribution is not responsible for the 20°C block. To investigate in more detail the mechanism for Arf3 recruitment and temperature-dependent release, we characterized several mutant forms of Arf3. This analysis demonstrated that those properties are readily separated and depend on pairs of residues present at opposite ends of the protein. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis established that all four critical residues were absolutely conserved and unique to Arf3. These results suggest that Arf3 plays a unique function at the TGN that likely involves recruitment by a specific receptor.

Abstract
Background Transport of molecules from one subcellular compartment to another involves the recruitment of cytosolic coat protein complexes to a donor membrane to concentrate cargo, deform the membrane and ultimately to form an independent carrier. Small-GTP-binding proteins of the Arf family are central to many membrane trafficking events. Arfs are activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) which results in their recruitment to membranes and subsequent engagement with Arf-effectors, many of which are coat proteins. Among the human BFA-sensitive large Arf-GEFs, the function of the two closely related BIG1 and BIG2 is still not clear, and recent studies have raised the question of functional redundancy between the two proteins. Methodology/Principal Findings Here we have used small-interfering RNA on human cells and a combination of fixed and live-cell imaging to investigate the differential functions of BIG1 and BIG2 in endomembrane organization and function. Importantly, in this direct comparative study, we show discrete functions for BIG1 and BIG2. Our results show that depletion of BIG2 but not of BIG1 induces a tubulation of the recycling endosomal compartment, consistent with a specific role for BIG2 here. In contrast, suppression of BIG1 induces the formation of Golgi mini-stacks still polarized and functional in terms of cargo export. Conclusions A key finding from our work is that suppression of BIG1 expression results in a fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus. Our data indicate that the human BFA-sensitive large Arf-GEFs have non-redundant functions in cell organization and membrane trafficking. BIG1 is required to maintain the normal morphology of the Golgi; BIG2 is important for endosomal compartment integrity and cannot replace the function of BIG1 in Golgi organization.

Abstract
Newly synthesized secretory cargo molecules pass through the Golgi apparatus while resident Golgi proteins remain in the organelle. However, the pathways of membrane traffic within the Golgi are still uncertain. Most of the available data can be accommodated by the cisternal maturation model, which postulates that Golgi cisternae form de novo, carry secretory cargoes forward and ultimately disappear. The entry face of the Golgi receives material that has been exported from transitional endoplasmic reticulum sites, and the exit face of the Golgi is intimately connected with endocytic compartments. These conserved features are enhanced by cell-type-specific elaborations such as tubular connections between mammalian Golgi cisternae. Key mechanistic questions remain about the formation and maturation of Golgi cisternae, the recycling of resident Golgi proteins, the origins of Golgi compartmental identity, the establishment of Golgi architecture, and the roles of Golgi structural elements in membrane traffic.

Abstract
The Sec7 domain ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) are found in all eukaryotes, and are involved in membrane remodeling processes throughout the cell. This review is focused on members of the GBF/Gea and BIG/Sec7 subfamilies of Arf GEFs, all of which use the class I Arf proteins (Arf1-3) as substrates, and play a fundamental role in trafficking in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)—Golgi and endosomal membrane systems. Members of the GBF/Gea and BIG/Sec7 subfamilies are large proteins on the order of 200 kDa, and they possess multiple homology domains. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that both of these subfamilies of Arf GEFs have members in at least five out of the six eukaryotic supergroups, and hence were likely present very early in eukaryotic evolution. The homology domains of the large Arf1 GEFs play important functional roles, and are involved in interactions with numerous protein partners. The large Arf1 GEFs have been implicated in several human diseases. They are crucial host factors for the replication of several viral pathogens, including poliovirus, coxsackievirus, mouse hepatitis coronavirus, and hepatitis C virus. Mutations in the BIG2 Arf1 GEF have been linked to autosomal recessive periventricular heterotopia, a disorder of neuronal migration that leads to severe malformation of the cerebral cortex. Understanding the roles of the Arf1 GEFs in membrane dynamics is crucial to a full understanding of trafficking in the secretory and endosomal pathways, which in turn will provide essential insights into human diseases that arise from misregulation of these pathways.

Abstract
ArfGAP1 is a prototype of GTPase-activating proteins for ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) and has been proposed to be involved in retrograde transport from the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by regulating the uncoating of coat protein I (COPI)-coated vesicles. Depletion of ArfGAP1 by RNA interference, however, causes neither a discernible phenotypic change in the COPI localization nor a change in the Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport. Therefore, we also examined ArfGAP2 and ArfGAP3, closely related homologues of ArfGAP1. Cells in which ArfGAP1, ArfGAP2, and ArfGAP3 are simultaneously knocked down show an increase in the GTP-bound ARF level. Furthermore, in these cells proteins resident in or cycling through the cis-Golgi, including ERGIC-53, beta-COP, and GM130, accumulate in the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment, and Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport is blocked. The phenotypes observed in the triple ArfGAP knockdown cells are similar to those seen in beta-COP-depleted cells. Both the triple ArfGAP- and beta-COP-depleted cells accumulate characteristic vacuolar structures that are visible under electron microscope. Furthermore, COPI is concentrated at rims of the vacuolar structures in the ArfGAP-depleted cells. On the basis of these observations, we conclude that ArfGAP1, ArfGAP2, and ArfGAP3 have overlapping roles in regulating COPI function in Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport.

XLGalpha(olf) was identified as a transcriptional variant of the heterotrimeric G protein, Galpha(olf). Previous work showed that XLGalpha(olf) couples with adenosine A2a receptor and dopamine D1 receptor in vitro. However, physiological functions of XLGalpha(olf) remain to be elucidated. In this study, we performed indirect immunofluorescence confocal analyses to examine the subcellular localization of XLGalpha(olf). With overexpression, surprisingly, many large endosomes resulted. We also observed that XLGalpha(olf) localizes at the Golgi apparatus. The N-terminal region of XLGalpha(olf) appears necessary for both endosome formation and the Golgi localization. The results indicate that XLGalpha(olf) and Galpha(olf) play distinctly separate roles. Moreover, XLGalpha(olf) colocalized with Rab3A and Rab8A, as well as partially with Rab11A, but not with other endocytotic endosomes. We could confirm the interaction between XLGalpha(olf) and Rab3A/Rab8A by co-immunoprecipitation experiments. Our study provides important clues toward understanding physiological functions of XLGalpha(olf).

Abstract
ARFRP1 and ARL1, which are both ARF-like small GTPases, are mammalian orthologs of yeast Arl3p and Arl1p, respectively. In yeast, Arl3p targeted to trans-Golgi network (TGN) membranes activates Arl1p, and the activated Arl1p in turn recruits a GRIP domain-containing protein; this complex regulates retrograde transport to the TGN and anterograde transport from the TGN. In the present study, using RNA interference-mediated knockdown of ARFRP1 and ARL1, we have examined whether the orthologs of Arl3p-Arl1p-GRIP story serve similar functions in mammalian cells. However, we have unexpectedly found differential roles of ARL1 and ARFRP1. Specifically, ARL1 and ARFRP1 regulate retrograde transport of Shiga toxin to the TGN and anterograde transport of VSVG from the TGN, respectively. Furthermore, we have obtained evidence suggesting that a SNARE complex containing Vti1a, syntaxin 6, and syntaxin 16 is involved in Shiga toxin transport downstream of ARL1.

Abstract
Arf GTPases control vesicle formation from different intracellular membranes and are regulated by Arf guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs). Outside of their conserved catalytic domains, known as Sec7 domains, little is known about Arf GEFs. Rsp5 is a yeast ubiquitin ligase that regulates numerous membrane trafficking events and carries a C2 domain that is specifically required for trans-Golgi network to vacuole transport. In a screen for proteins that interact with the Rsp5 C2 domain we identified Sec7, the GEF that acts on Golgi-associated Arfs. The Rsp5-Sec7 interaction is direct, occurs in vivo, and is conserved among mammalian Rsp5 and Sec7 homologues. A 50-amino acid region near the Sec7 C terminus is required for Rsp5 binding and for normal Sec7 localization. Binding of Sec7 to Rsp5 is dependent on the presence of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase Vps34, suggesting that phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI(3)P) plays a role in regulating this interaction. Overexpression of Sec7 significantly suppresses the growth and sorting defects of an rsp5 C2 domain point mutant. These observations identify a new functional region within the Sec7/BIG family of Arf GEFs that is required for trans-Golgi network localization.

Abstract
Glutamate uptake by the Na(+)-dependent glutamate transporter GLT-1, which is predominantly expressed in astrocytes, is crucial for regulating glutamate concentration at the synaptic cleft and achieving proper excitatory neurotransmission. A body of evidence suggests that GLT-1 constitutively traffics between the plasma membrane and endosomes via an endocytosis/recycling pathway, and forms a cluster. Here, we report substrate transport via GLT-1-induced formation of GLT-1 cluster accompanied by intracellular trafficking in rat astroglial-neuronal cultures. We constructed a recombinant adenovirus expressing enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)-tagged GLT-1. Adenoviral infection resulted in the expression of functional GLT-1-EGFP preferentially in astrocytes, partly as clusters. Treatment with glutamate, but not N-methyl-D-aspartate, dramatically increased the number of GLT-1 clusters within 1 h. The estimated EC(50) value of glutamate was 240 microm. In addition, glutamate decreased the cell surface expression and increased the intracellular expression of GLT-1. The GLT-1 clusters were found in early and recycling endosomes and partly in lysosomes, and were inhibited by blockade of endocytotic pathways. Ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonists had no effect on glutamate-induced GLT-1 clustering. The non-transportable glutamate uptake inhibitors (2S,3S)-3-[3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoylamino]benzyloxy]aspartate and dihydrokainate, as well as Na(+)-free conditions, prevented the glutamate-induced GLT-1 clustering, whereas the competitive substrates, aspartate and L-trans-pyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylate, induced GLT-1 clustering. Furthermore, the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor, ouabain, and the Na(+) ionophores, gramicidin and monensin, produced GLT-1 clustering. Modulators of intracellular Ca(2+)signaling or membrane depolarization had no effect on GLT-1 clustering. Taken together, these results suggest that Na(+) influx associated with GLT-1 substrate transport triggers the formation of GLT-1 clusters accompanied by intracellular trafficking via endocytotic pathways in astrocytes.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) and Arf GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) are key regulators of membrane trafficking and the actin cytoskeleton. The Arf GAP ASAP1 contains an N-terminal BAR domain, which can induce membrane tubulation. Here, we report that the BAR domain of ASAP1 can also function as a protein binding site. Two-hybrid screening identified FIP3, which is a putative Arf6- and Rab11-effector, as a candidate ASAP1 BAR domain-binding protein. Both coimmunoprecipitation and in vitro pulldown assays confirmed that ASAP1 directly binds to FIP3 through its BAR domain. ASAP1 formed a ternary complex with Rab11 through FIP3. FIP3 binding to the BAR domain stimulated ASAP1 GAP activity against Arf1, but not Arf6. ASAP1 colocalized with FIP3 in the pericentrosomal endocytic recycling compartment. Depletion of ASAP1 or FIP3 by small interfering RNA changed the localization of transferrin receptor, which is a marker of the recycling endosome, in HeLa cells. The depletion also altered the trafficking of endocytosed transferrin. These results support the conclusion that ASAP1, like FIP3, functions as a component of the endocytic recycling compartment.

Abstract
GABAA receptors are located on the majority of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous system, where they mediate important actions of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid. Early in development the trophic properties of GABA allow a healthy development of the nervous system. Most neurons have a high intracellular Cl-concentration early in life due to the late functional expression of the Cl-pump KCC2, therefore GABA has excitatory effects at this stage. Upon higher expression and activation of KCC2 GABA takes on its inhibitory effects while glutamate functions as the major excitatory neurotransmitter. Like all multisubunit membrane proteins the GABAA receptor is assembled in the ER and travels through the Golgi and remaining secretory pathway to the cell surface, where it mediates GABA actions either directly at the synapses or at extrasynaptic sites responding to ambient GABA to provide a basal tonic inhibitory state. In order to adapt to changing needs and information states, the GABAergic system is highly dynamic. That includes subtype specific trafficking to different locations in the cell, regulation of mobility by interaction with scaffold molecules, posttranslational modifications, that either directly affect channel function or the interaction with other proteins and finally the dynamic exchange between surface and intracellular receptor pools, that either prepare receptors for recycling to the surface or degradation. Here we give an overview of the current understanding of GABAA receptor functional and molecular dynamics that play a major part in maintaining the balance between excitation and inhibition and in changes in network activity.

Abstract
BIG2 and BIG1 are closely related guanine-nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) and are involved in the regulation of membrane traffic through activating ARFs and recruiting coat protein complexes, such as the COPI complex and the AP-1 clathrin adaptor complex. Although both ARF-GEFs are associated mainly with the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and BIG2 is also associated with recycling endosomes, it is unclear whether BIG2 and BIG1 share some roles in membrane traffic. We here show that knockdown of both BIG2 and BIG1 by RNAi causes mislocalization of a subset of proteins associated with the TGN and recycling endosomes and blocks retrograde transport of furin from late endosomes to the TGN. Similar mislocalization and protein transport block, including furin, were observed in cells depleted of AP-1. Taken together with previous reports, these observations indicate that BIG2 and BIG1 play redundant roles in trafficking between the TGN and endosomes that involves the AP-1 complex.

Abstract
Tom1 (target of Myb 1) and its related proteins (Tom1L1/Srcasm and Tom1L2) constitute a protein family, which share an N-terminal VHS (Vps27, Hrs and STAM) domain and a following GAT (GGA and Tom1) domain. Tom1L1 has potential binding sequences for Tsg101, which is one of key regulators of the multivesicular body (MVB) formation. To obtain a clue to the role of Tom1L1 in the MVB formation, we have characterized the Tom1L1-Tsg101 interaction. We have found that not only the PTAP sequence in the GAT domain but also the PSAP sequence in the C-terminal region of Tom1L1 is responsible for its interaction with the UEV domain of Tsg101 and competes with the HIV-1 Gag protein for the Tsg101 interaction. Furthermore, we show that, by means of Tsg101, Tom1L1 associates with the midbody during cytokinesis as well as endosomes. Taken into account the topological equivalency among the events of the MVB formation, viral egress from the cell, and cytokinesis, the data obtained here suggest that Tom1L1 is implicated in these three distinct cellular processes.

Abstract
ATP-binding cassette protein A1 (ABCA1) mediates transfer of cellular free cholesterol and phospholipids to apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), an extracellular acceptor in plasma, to form high-density lipoprotein (HDL). It is currently unknown to what extent ABCA1 endocytosis and recycling contribute to the HDL formation. To address this issue, we expressed human ABCA1 constructs with either an extracellular HA tag or an intracellular GFP tag in cells, and used this system to characterize endocytosis and recycling of ABCA1 and apoA-I. Under basal conditions, ABCA1 and apoA-I are endocytosed via a clathrin- and Rab5-mediated pathway and recycled rapidly back to the cell surface, at least in part via a Rab4-mediated route; approximately 30% of the endocytosed ABCA1 is recycled back to the cell surface. When receptor-mediated endocytosis is inhibited, the level of ABCA1 at the cell surface increases and apoA-I internalization is blocked. Under these conditions, apoA-I mediated cholesterol efflux from cells that have accumulated lipoprotein-derived cholesterol is decreased, whereas efflux from cells without excess cholesterol is increased. These results suggest that the retroendocytosis pathway of ABCA1/apoA-I contributes to HDL formation when excess lipoprotein-derived cholesterol has accumulated in cells.

Abstract
Small G proteins play a central role in the organization of the secretory and endocytic pathways. The majority of such small G proteins are members of the Rab family, which are anchored to the bilayer by C-terminal prenyl groups. However, the recruitment of some effectors, including vesicle coat proteins, is mediated by a second class of small G proteins that is unique in having an N-terminal amphipathic helix that becomes available for membrane insertion upon GTP binding. Sar1, Arf1, and Arf6 are the best-characterized members of this ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) family. In addition, all eukaryotes contain additional distantly related G proteins, often called Arf like, or Arls. The complete Arf family in humans has 29 members. The roles of these related G proteins are poorly understood, but recent work has shown that some are involved in membrane traffic or organizing the cytoskeleton. Here we review what is known about all the members of the Arf family, along with the known regulatory molecules that convert them between GDP- and GTP-bound states.

Abstract
Endocytosis of glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) and the fluid phase takes place primarily through a dynamin- and clathrin-independent, Cdc42-regulated pinocytic mechanism. This mechanism is mediated by primary carriers called clathrin-independent carriers (CLICs), which fuse to form tubular early endocytic compartments called GPI-AP enriched endosomal compartments (GEECs). Here, we show that reduction in activity or levels of ARF1 specifically inhibits GPI-AP and fluid-phase endocytosis without affecting other clathrin-dependent or independent endocytic pathways. ARF1 is activated at distinct sites on the plasma membrane, and by the recruitment of RhoGAP domain-containing protein, ARHGAP10, to the plasma membrane, modulates cell-surface Cdc42 dynamics. This results in the coupling of ARF1 and Cdc42 activity to regulate endocytosis at the plasma membrane. These findings provide a molecular basis for a crosstalk of endocytosis with secretion by the sharing of a key regulator of secretory traffic, ARF1.

Abstract
We found that wortmannin, a potent phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, markedly induced the formation of Rab21-positive tubular compartments in A431 cells. By time-lapse fluorescence microscopy of live cells co-expressing fluorescent protein-fused Rab21 and other marker proteins, it was shown that the Rab21-positive tubules in wortmannin-treated cells were derived from Rab5-positive early endosomes, but not from late endosomes, recycling endosomes, lysosomes or the trans-Golgi network. The formation of Rab21-positive tubules was very dynamic and required microtubules. Rab21-positive tubules were also formed by the treatment of cells with 3-methyladenine (3-MA), which inhibits class III PI3K rather than class I PI3K. Furthermore, the loss of PI(3)P correlated with the tubulation of Rab21-positive endosomes in cells co-expressing fluorescent protein-fused Rab21 and a tandem FYVE domain. These results suggest that the lowering of PI(3)P as a result of class III PI3K inhibition may be an important cue for the morphological change of Rab21-positive early endosomes from vesicular to tubular form.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab6 regulates retrograde membrane traffic from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus and from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We examined the role of a Rab6-binding protein, TMF/ARA160 (TATA element modulatory factor/androgen receptor-coactivator of 160 kDa), in this process. High-resolution immunofluorescence imaging revealed that TMF signal surrounded Rab6-positive Golgi structures and immunoelectron microscopy revealed that TMF is concentrated at the budding structures localized at the tips of cisternae. The knockdown of either TMF or Rab6 by RNA interference blocked retrograde transport of endocytosed Shiga toxin from early/recycling endosomes to the trans-Golgi network, causing missorting of the toxin to late endosomes/lysosomes. However, the TMF knockdown caused Rab6-dependent displacement of N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-2 (GalNAc-T2), but not beta1,4-galactosyltransferase (GalT), from the Golgi. Analyses using chimeric proteins, in which the cytoplasmic regions of GalNAc-T2 and GalT were exchanged, revealed that the cytoplasmic region of GalNAc-T2 plays a crucial role in its TMF-dependent Golgi retention. These observations suggest critical roles for TMF in two Rab6-dependent retrograde transport processes: one from endosomes to the Golgi and the other from the Golgi to the ER.

Abstract
The ADP ribosylation factors (Arfs) are a family of small, ubiquitously expressed and evolutionarily conserved guanosine triphosphatases that are key regulators of vesicular transport in eukaryotic cells (D'Souza-Schorey C, Chavrier P. ARF proteins: roles in membrane traffic and beyond. Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 2006;7:347-358). Although Arfs are best known for their role in the nucleation of coat protein assembly at a variety of intracellular locations, it is increasingly apparent that they are also integral components in a number of important signaling pathways that are regulated by extracellular cues. The activation of Arfs is catalyzed by a family of guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), referred to as the Sec7 family, based on homology of their catalytic domains to the yeast Arf GEF, sec7p. While there are only six mammalian Arfs, the human genome encodes 15 Sec7 family members, which can be divided into five classes based on related domain organization. Some of this diversity arises from the tissue-specific expression of certain isoforms, but all mammalian cells appear to express at least six Arf GEFs, suggesting that Arf activation is under extensive regulatory control. Here we review recent progress in our understanding of the structure, localization and biology of the different classes of Arf GEFs.

Abstract
Guanine nucleotide exchange factors carrying a Sec7 domain (ArfGEFs) activate the small GTP-binding protein Arf, a major regulator of membrane remodeling and protein trafficking in eukaryotic cells. Only two of the seven subfamilies of ArfGEFs (GBF and BIG) are found in all eukaryotes. In addition to the Sec7 domain, which catalyzes GDP/GTP exchange on Arf, the GBF and BIG ArfGEFs have five common homology domains. Very little is known about the functions of these noncatalytic domains, but it is likely that they serve to integrate upstream signals that define the conditions of Arf activation. Here we describe interactions between two conserved domains upstream of the Sec7 domain (DCB and HUS) that determine the architecture of the N-terminal regions of the GBF and BIG ArfGEFs using a combination of biochemical, yeast two-hybrid, and cellular assays. Our data demonstrate a strong interaction between DCB domains within GBF1, BIG1, and BIG2 to maintain homodimers and an interaction between DCB and HUS domains within each homodimer. The DCB/HUS interaction is mediated by the HUS box, the most conserved motif in large ArfGEFs after the Sec7 domain. In support of the in vitro data, we show that both the DCB and the HUS domains are necessary for GBF1 dimerization in mammalian cells and that the DCB domain is essential for yeast viability. We propose that the dimeric DCB-HUS structural unit exists in all members of the GBF and BIG ArfGEF groups and in the related Mon2p family and probably serves an important regulatory role in Arf activation.

Abstract
Guanine-nucleotide exchange factors on ADP-ribosylation factor GTPases (ARF-GEFs) regulate vesicle formation in time and space by activating ARF substrates on distinct donor membranes. Mammalian GBF1 (ref. 2) and yeast Gea1/2 (ref. 3) ARF-GEFs act at Golgi membranes, regulating COPI-coated vesicle formation. In contrast, their Arabidopsis thaliana homologue GNOM (GN) is required for endosomal recycling, playing an important part in development. This difference indicates an evolutionary divergence of trafficking pathways between animals and plants, and raised the question of how endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi transport is regulated in plants. Here we demonstrate that the closest homologue of GNOM in Arabidopsis, GNOM-LIKE1 (GNL1; NM_123312; At5g39500), performs this ancestral function. GNL1 localizes to and acts primarily at Golgi stacks, regulating COPI-coated vesicle formation. Surprisingly, GNOM can functionally substitute for GNL1, but not vice versa. Our results suggest that large ARF-GEFs of the GBF1 class perform a conserved role in endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi trafficking and secretion, which is done by GNL1 and GNOM in Arabidopsis, whereas GNOM has evolved to perform an additional plant-specific function of recycling from endosomes to the plasma membrane. Duplication and diversification of ARF-GEFs in plants contrasts with the evolution of entirely new classes of ARF-GEFs for endosomal trafficking in animals, which illustrates the independent evolution of complex endosomal pathways in the two kingdoms.

Abstract
The lysosomal trafficking of the mannose 6-phosphate receptor and sortilin require that the Golgi-localized, gamma-ear-containing, ADP ribosylation factor (Arf)-binding proteins (GGAs) be recruited to Golgi membranes where they bind a signal in the cytosolic tail of the receptors and recruit clathrin to form trafficking vesicles. GGA recruitment to membranes requires Arf1, a protein that cycles between a GDP-bound inactive state and GTP-bound active state. The guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) promote the formation of Arf-GTP, while the GTPase activating proteins induce hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. We provide evidence that the GEF, GBF1, colocalizes with the GGAs and interacts with the GGAs. Depletion of GBF1 or expression of an inactive mutant prevents recruitment of the GGAs to Golgi membranes and results in the improper sorting of cargo. In summary, we show that GBF1 is required for GGA recruitment to Golgi membranes and plays a role in the proper processing and sorting of lysosomal cargo.

Abstract
The type I, 55-kDa tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR1) is released from cells to the extracellular space where it can bind and modulate TNF bioactivity. Extracellular TNFR1 release occurs by two distinct pathways: the inducible proteolytic cleavage of TNFR1 ectodomains and the constitutive release of full-length TNFR1 in exosome-like vesicles. Regulation of both TNFR1 release pathways appears to involve the trafficking of cytoplasmic TNFR1 vesicles. Vesicular trafficking is controlled by ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs), which are active in the GTP-bound state and inactive when bound to GDP. ARF activation is enhanced by guanine nucleotide-exchange factors that catalyze replacement of GDP by GTP. We investigated whether the brefeldin A (BFA)-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange proteins, BIG1 and/or BIG2, are required for TNFR1 release from human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Effects of specific RNA interference (RNAi) showed that BIG2, but not BIG1, regulated the release of TNFR1 exosome-like vesicles, whereas neither BIG2 nor BIG1 was required for the IL-1beta-induced proteolytic cleavage of TNFR1 ectodomains. BIG2 co-localized with TNFR1 in diffusely distributed cytoplasmic vesicles, and the association between BIG2 and TNFR1 was disrupted by BFA. Consistent with the preferential activation of class I ARFs by BIG2, ARF1 and ARF3 participated in the extracellular release of TNFR1 exosome-like vesicles in a nonredundant and additive fashion. We conclude that the association between BIG2 and TNFR1 selectively regulates the extracellular release of TNFR1 exosome-like vesicles from human vascular endothelial cells via an ARF1- and ARF3-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
Family of Rab11-interacting protein (FIP)3/Arfophlin-1 and FIP4/Arfophilin-2 are dual effectors for Rab11 and ADP ribosylation factor (ARF)5/ARF6, which are involved in membrane delivery from recycling endosomes to the plasma membrane during cytokinesis. Here, we define the distinct C-terminal binding regions of FIP3 and FIP4 for Rab11 and ARF5/ARF6. Furthermore, we determined the crystal structure of Rab11 in complex with the Rab11-binding domain (RBD) of FIP3. The long amphiphilic alpha-helix of FIP3-RBD forms a parallel coiled-coil homodimer, with two symmetric interfaces with two Rab11 molecules. The hydrophobic side of the RBD helix is involved in homodimerization and mediates the interaction with the Rab11 switch 1 region, whereas the opposite hydrophilic side interacts with the Rab11 switch 2 and is the major factor contributing to the binding specificity. The bivalent interaction of FIP3 with Rab11 at the C terminus allows FIP3 to coordinately function with other binding partners, including ARFs.

Abstract
AMY-1 (associate of Myc-1) was originally identified as a c-Myc-binding protein that enhances the c-Myc transcription activity, and subsequently found to interact with A-kinase-anchoring proteins (AKAPs), including AKAP149, S-AKAP84 and AKAP95. We show here that, using anti-AMY-1 antibodies we raised, AMY-1 localizes to the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and the nucleus. To explore the possible function of AMY-1, we have undertaken a search for interacting partners by co-immunoprecipitation experiments using cells stably expressing FLAG-tagged AMY-1. Interestingly, we have found that AMY-1 interacts with BIG2 and BIG1, both of which are high molecular weight guanine-nucleotide exchange factors for ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs) and mainly localize to the TGN. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that AMY-1 is associated with the TGN through interacting with BIG2 but not with BIG1 using an RNA interference approach, although AMY-1 can interact with both BIG1 and BIG2 in vitro. Taken together with the facts that BIG2 contains domains that bind to regulatory subunits of protein kinase A and that recruitment of ARF1 onto Golgi membranes is mediated, at least in part, by activation of protein kinase A, these results suggest that BIG2 alone or in concert with recruited AMY-1 coordinates ARF-mediated membrane trafficking and signaling pathways.
