Abstract
The GGAs (Golgi-localized, γ ear–containing, ADP ribosylation factor–binding proteins) are multidomain proteins implicated in protein trafficking between the Golgi and endosomes. We examined whether the three mammalian GGAs act independently or together to mediate their functions. Using cryo-immunogold electron microscopy, the three GGAs were shown to colocalize within coated buds and vesicles at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) of HeLa cells. In vitro binding experiments revealed multidomain interactions between the GGAs, and chemical cross-linking experiments demonstrated that GGAs 1 and 2 form a complex on Golgi membranes. RNA interference of each GGA resulted in decreased levels of the other GGAs and their redistribution from the TGN to cytosol. This was associated with impaired incorporation of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor into clathrin-coated vesicles at the TGN, partial redistribution of the receptor to endosomes, and missorting of cathepsin D. The morphology of the TGN was also altered. These findings indicate that the three mammalian GGAs cooperate to sort cargo and are required for maintenance of TGN structure.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis starts by a recruitment of endocytic proteins to the plasma membrane to induce invagination of lipid bilayer and subsequent vesicule formation. The recruitment of these components requires PtdIns(4,5)P2, a phosphoinositide on the plasma membrane. Although it is well known that the synthesis as well as the disruption of this lipid is important, recent studies have revealed the indispensable roles of direct interaction between PtdIns(4,5)P2 and the endocytic machinery. The ENTH domain is a newly found PtdIns(4,5)P2 binding unit conserved among endocytic proteins like epsins, AP180, and the Hip1/Sla2 family. This review focuses on the essential roles of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and its specific binding partner, the ENTH domain, in clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Abstract
The epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain is an evolutionarily conserved protein module found primarily in proteins that participate in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Structural analyses and ligand-binding studies have shown that a set of proteins previously designated as harboring an ENTH domain in fact contain a highly similar, yet unique module referred to as an AP180 N-terminal homology (ANTH) domain. ENTH and ANTH (E/ANTH) domains bind both inositol phospholipids and proteins and contribute to the nucleation and formation of clathrin coats on membranes. ENTH domains also function in the development of membrane curvature through lipid remodeling during the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles. E/ANTH-bearing proteins have recently been shown to function with adaptor protein-1 and GGA adaptors at the trans-Golgi network, which suggests that E/ANTH domains are universal components of the machinery for clathrin-mediated membrane budding.

Abstract
The heterotetrameric adaptor complex 1 (AP-1) and the monomeric Golgi-localized, gamma ear-containing, Arf-binding (GGA) proteins are components of clathrin coats associated with the trans-Golgi network and endosomes. The carboxyl-terminal ear domains (or gamma-adaptin ear (GAE) domains) of two gamma-adaptin subunit isoforms of AP-1 and of the GGAs are structurally similar and bind to a common set of accessory proteins. In this study, we have systematically defined a core tetrapeptide motif PsiG(P/D/E)(Psi/L/M) (where Psi is an aromatic residue), which is responsible for the interactions of accessory proteins with GAE domains. The definition of this motif has allowed us to identify novel GAE-binding partners named NECAP and aftiphilin, which also contain clathrin-binding motifs. These findings shed light on the mechanism of accessory protein recruitment to trans-Golgi network and endosomal clathrin coats.

Abstract
Most epithelial cells contain two AP-1 clathrin adaptor complexes. AP-1A is ubiquitously expressed and involved in transport between the TGN and endosomes. AP-1B is expressed only in epithelia and mediates the polarized targeting of membrane proteins to the basolateral surface. Both AP-1 complexes are heterotetramers and differ only in their 50-kD μ1A or μ1B subunits. Here, we show that AP-1A and AP-1B, together with their respective cargoes, define physically and functionally distinct membrane domains in the perinuclear region. Expression of AP-1B (but not AP-1A) enhanced the recruitment of at least two subunits of the exocyst complex (Sec8 and Exo70) required for basolateral transport. By immunofluorescence and cell fractionation, the exocyst subunits were found to selectively associate with AP-1B–containing membranes that were both distinct from AP-1A–positive TGN elements and more closely apposed to transferrin receptor–positive recycling endosomes. Thus, despite the similarity of the two AP-1 complexes, AP-1A and AP-1B exhibit great specificity for endosomal transport versus cell polarity.

Abstract
Dsl1p is required for Golgi-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retrograde transport in yeast. It interacts with the ER resident protein Tip20p and with delta-COP, a subunit of coatomer, the coat complex of COPI vesicles. To test the significance of these interactions, we mapped the different binding sites and created mutant versions of Dsl1p and delta-COP, which are unable to bind directly to each other. Three domains were identified in Dsl1p: a Tip20p binding region within the N-terminal 200 residues, a highly acidic region in the center of Dsl1p containing crucial tryptophan residues that is required for binding to delta-COP and essential for viability, and an evolutionarily well conserved domain at the C terminus. Most importantly, Dsl1p uses the same central acidic domain to interact not only with delta-COP but also with alpha-COP. Strong interaction with alpha-COP requires the presence of comparable amounts of epsilon-COP or beta' -COP. Thus, the binding characteristics of Dsl1p resemble those of many accessory factors of the clathrin coat. They interact with different layers of the vesicle coat by using tandemly arranged sequence motifs, some of which have dual specificity.

Abstract
Sorting nexin 9 (SNX9) belongs to a family of proteins, the sorting nexins, that are characterized by the presence of a subclass of the phosphoinositide-binding phox domain. SNX9 has in its amino terminus a Src homology 3 domain and a region with predicted low complexity followed by a carboxyl-terminal part containing the phox domain. We previously found that SNX9 is one of the major proteins in hematopoietic cells that binds to the alpha and beta2-appendages of adaptor protein complex 2 (AP-2), a protein with a critical role in the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles at the plasma membrane. In the present study we show that clathrin and dynamin-2, two other essential molecules in the endocytic process, also interact with SNX9. We found that both AP-2 and clathrin bind to the low complexity region in SNX9 in a cooperative manner, whereas dynamin-2 binds to the Src homology 3 domain. In the cytosol, SNX9 is present in a 14.5 S complex containing dynamin-2 and an unidentified 41-kDa protein. In HeLa cells, SNX9 co-localized with both AP-2 and dynamin-2 at the plasma membrane or on vesicular structures derived from it but not with the early endosomal marker EEA1 or with AP-1. The results suggest that SNX9 may be recruited together with dynamin-2 and become co-assembled with AP-2 and clathrin at the plasma membrane. Overexpression in both K562 and HeLa cells of truncated forms of SNX9 interfered with the uptake of transferrin, consistent with a role of SNX9 in endocytosis.

Abstract
Enthoprotin, a newly identified component of clathrin-coated vesicles, interacts with the trans-Golgi network (TGN) clathrin adapters AP-1 and GGA2. Here we perform a multi-faceted analysis of the site in enthoprotin that is responsible for the binding to the gamma-adaptin ear (gamma-ear) domain of AP-1. Alanine scan mutagenesis and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies reveal the full extent of the site as well as critical residues for this interaction. NMR studies of the gamma-ear in complex with a synthetic peptide from enthoprotin provide structural details of the binding site for TGN accessory proteins within the gamma-ear.

Abstract
PtdIns(3,5)P(2) is required for cargo-selective sorting to the vacuolar lumen via the multivesicular body (MVB). Here we show that Ent3p, a yeast epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain-containing protein, is a specific PtdIns(3,5)P(2) effector localized to endosomes. The ENTH domain of Ent3p is essential for its PtdIns(3,5)P(2) binding activity and for its membrane interaction in vitro and in vivo. Ent3p is required for protein sorting into the MVB but not for the internalization step of endocytosis. Ent3p is associated with clathrin and is necessary for normal actin cytoskeleton organization. Our results show that Ent3p is required for protein sorting into intralumenal vesicles of the MVB through PtdIns(3,5)P(2) binding via its ENTH domain.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4 phosphate [PI(4)P] is essential for secretion in yeast, but its role in mammalian cells is unclear. Current paradigms propose that PI(4)P acts primarily as a precursor to phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate (PIP2), an important plasma membrane regulator. We found that PI(4)P is enriched in the mammalian Golgi, and used RNA interference (RNAi) of PI4KIIalpha, a Golgi resident phosphatidylinositol 4 kinase, to determine whether PI(4)P directly regulates the Golgi. PI4KIIalpha RNAi decreases Golgi PI(4)P, blocks the recruitment of clathrin adaptor AP-1 complexes to the Golgi, and inhibits AP-1-dependent functions. This AP-1 binding defect is rescued by adding back PI(4)P. In addition, purified AP-1 binds PI(4)P, and anti-PI(4)P inhibits the in vitro recruitment of cytosolic AP-1 to normal cellular membranes. We propose that PI4KIIalpha establishes the Golgi's unique lipid-defined organelle identity by generating PI(4)P-rich domains that specify the docking of the AP-1 coat machinery.

Abstract
The Golgi-associated, gamma-adaptin-related, ADP-ribosylation-factor binding proteins (GGAs) and adaptor protein (AP)-1 are adaptors involved in clathrin-mediated transport between the trans-Golgi network and endosomal system. The appendage domains of GGAs and the AP-1 gamma-adaptin subunit are structurally homologous and have been proposed to bind to accessory proteins via interaction with short sequences containing phenylalanines and acidic residues. Here we present the structure of the human GGA1 appendage in complex with its cognate binding peptide from the p56 accessory protein (DDDDFGGFEAAETFD) as determined by X-ray crystallography. The interaction is governed predominantly by packing of the first two phenylalanine residues of the peptide with conserved basic and hydrophobic residues from GGA1. Additionally, several main chain hydrogen bonds cause the peptide to form an additional beta-strand on the edge of the preexisting beta-sheet of the protein. Isothermal titration calorimetry was used to assess the affinities of different peptides for the GGA and gamma-appendage domains.

Abstract
The epsin N-terminal homology (ENTH) domain is a protein module of approximately 150 amino acids found at the N terminus of a variety of proteins identified in yeast, plants, nematode, frog, and mammals. ENTH domains comprise multiple alpha-helices folded upon each other to form a compact globular structure that has been implicated in interactions with lipids and proteins. In characterizing this evolutionarily conserved domain, we isolated and identified tubulin as an ENTH domain-binding partner. The interaction, which is direct and has a dissociation constant of approximately 1 microm, was observed with ENTH domains of proteins present in various species. Tubulin is co-immunoprecipitated from rat brain extracts with the ENTH domain-containing proteins, epsins 1 and 2, and punctate epsin staining is observed along the microtubule cytoskeleton of dissociated cortical neurons. Consistent with a role in microtubule processes, the over-expression of epsin ENTH domain in PC12 cells stimulates neurite outgrowth. These data demonstrate an evolutionarily conserved property of ENTH domains to interact with tubulin and microtubules.

Abstract
The adaptor appendage domains are believed to act as binding platforms for coated vesicle accessory proteins. Using glutathione S-transferase pulldowns from pig brain cytosol, we find three proteins that can bind to the appendage domains of both the AP-1 gamma subunit and the GGAs: gamma-synergin and two novel proteins, p56 and p200. p56 elicited better antibodies than p200 and was generally more tractable. Although p56 and gamma-synergin bind to both GGA and gamma appendages in vitro, immunofluorescence labeling of nocodazole-treated cells shows that p56 colocalizes with GGAs on TGN46-positive membranes, whereas gamma-synergin colocalizes with AP-1 primarily on a different membrane compartment. Furthermore, in AP-1-deficient cells, p56 remains membrane-associated whereas gamma-synergin becomes cytosolic. Thus, p56 and gamma-synergin show very strong preferences for GGAs and AP-1, respectively, in vivo. However, the GGA and gamma appendages share the same fold as determined by x-ray crystallography, and mutagenesis reveals that the same amino acids contribute to their binding sites. By overexpressing wild-type GGA and gamma appendage domains in cells, we can drive p56 and gamma-synergin, respectively, into the cytosol, suggesting a possible mechanism for selectively disrupting the two pathways.

Abstract
Clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) play important roles in nutrient uptake, downregulation of signaling receptors, pathogen invasion and biogenesis of endosomes and lysosomes. Although detailed models for endocytic CCV formation have emerged, the process of CCV formation at the Golgi and endosomes has been less clear. Key to endocytic CCV formation are proteins containing related phosphoinositide-binding ENTH and ANTH domains. Now, recent studies have identified novel ENTH/ANTH proteins that participate in CCV-mediated traffic between the trans-Golgi Network (TGN) and endosomes and have defined a molecular basis for interaction with AP-1 and GGA adaptors in clathrin coats of the TGN/endosomes. Thus, ENTH/ANTH domain proteins appear to be universal elements in nucleation of clathrin coats.

Abstract
EpsinR is a clathrin-coated vesicle (CCV) enriched 70-kD protein that binds to phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate, clathrin, and the gamma appendage domain of the adaptor protein complex 1 (AP1). In cells, its distribution overlaps with the perinuclear pool of clathrin and AP1 adaptors. Overexpression disrupts the CCV-dependent trafficking of cathepsin D from the trans-Golgi network to lysosomes and the incorporation of mannose-6-phosphate receptors into CCVs. These biochemical and cell biological data point to a role for epsinR in AP1/clathrin budding events in the cell, just as epsin1 is involved in the budding of AP2 CCVs. Furthermore, we show that two gamma appendage domains can simultaneously bind to epsinR with affinities of 0.7 and 45 microM, respectively. Thus, potentially, two AP1 complexes can bind to one epsinR. This high affinity binding allowed us to identify a consensus binding motif of the form DFxDF, which we also find in gamma-synergin and use to predict that an uncharacterized EF-hand-containing protein will be a new gamma binding partner.

Abstract
GGAs (Golgi-localizing, gamma-adaptin ear homology domain, ARF-binding proteins) are a family of monomeric clathrin adaptor proteins that are conserved from yeasts to humans. Data published during the past four years have provided detailed pictures of the localization, domain organization and structure-function relationships of GGAs. GGAs possess four conserved functional domains, each of which interacts with cargo proteins including mannose 6-phosphate receptors, the small GTPase ARF, clathrin, or accessory proteins including Rabaptin-5 and gamma-synergin. Together with or independent of the adaptor protein complex AP-1, GGAs regulate selective transport of cargo proteins, such as mannose 6-phosphate receptors, from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes mediated by clathrin-coated vesicles.
