Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation of misfolded or misprocessed glycoproteins in mammalian cells is prevented by inhibitors of class I alpha-mannosidases implicating mannose trimming from the precursor oligosaccharide Glc3Man9GlcNAc2 as an essential step in this pathway. However, the extent of mannose removal has not been determined. We show here that glycoproteins subject to endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation undergo reglucosylation, deglucosylation, and mannose trimming to yield Man6GlcNAc2 and Man5GlcNAc2. These structures lack the mannose residue that is the acceptor of glucose transferred by UDP-Glc:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase. This could serve as a mechanism for removal of the glycoproteins from folding attempts catalyzed by cycles of reglucosylation and calnexin/calreticulin binding and result in targeting of these molecules for proteasomal degradation.

Abstract
Membrane proteins exit the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in COPII-transport vesicles. ER export is a selective process in which transport signals present in the cytoplasmic tail (CT) of cargo membrane proteins must be recognized by coatomer proteins for incorporation in COPII vesicles. Two classes of ER export signals have been described for type I membrane proteins, the diacidic and the dihydrophobic motifs. Both motifs participate in the Sar1-dependent binding of Sec23p-Sec24p complex to the CTs during early steps of cargo selection. However, information concerning the amino acids in the CTs that interact with Sar1 is lacking. Herein, we describe a third class of ER export motif, [RK](X)[RK], at the CT of Golgi resident glycosyltransferases that is required for these type II membrane proteins to exit the ER. The dibasic motif is located proximal to the transmembrane border, and experiments of cross-linking in microsomal membranes and of binding to immobilized peptides showed that it directly interacts with the COPII component Sar1. Sar1GTP-bound to immobilized peptides binds Sec23p. Collectively, the present data suggest that interaction of the dibasic motif with Sar1 participates in early steps of selection of Golgi resident glycosyltransferases for transport in COPII vesicles.

Abstract
We investigated the relative distributional persistence of Golgi "matrix" proteins and glycosyltransferases to an endoplasmic reticulum exit block induced by expression of a GDP-restricted Sar1p. HeLa cells were microinjected with plasmid encoding the GDP-restricted mutant (T39N) of Sar1p to block endoplasmic reticulum exit and then scored for the distribution of GM130 (Golgi matrix protein of 130 kDa), a cis located golgin; p27, a member of the p24 family of proteins; giantin, a protein that interacts indirectly with GM130; and the Golgi glycosyltransferase, N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-2 (GalNAcT2). All of these proteins lost their compact, juxtanuclear distribution and displayed characteristics of endoplasmic reticulum/cytoplasmic accumulation with the same dependence on plasmid concentration. The kinetics of redistribution of GM130 and GalNAcT2 were identical. Expression of Sar1pT39N displaced the COPII coat protein Sec13p from endoplasmic reticulum exit sites consistent with disruption of these sites. This occurred without disturbing the overall distribution of endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Furthermore, the reassembly of a juxtanuclear Golgi matrix as assayed by the distribution of GM130 following washout of the Golgi disrupting drug, brefeldin A, was blocked by microinjected Sar1pT39N plasmids. We conclude that the persistence, i.e. stability and maintenance, of Golgi matrix distribution and its reassembly following drug disruption are exquisitely dependent on Sar1p activity.

Abstract
The KDEL receptor is a Golgi/intermediate compartment-located integral membrane protein that carries out the retrieval of escaped ER proteins bearing a C-terminal KDEL sequence. This occurs throughout retrograde traffic mediated by COPI-coated transport carriers. The role of the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of the KDEL receptor in this process has been investigated. Deletion of this domain did not affect receptor subcellular localization although cells expressing this truncated form of the receptor failed to retain KDEL ligands intracellularly. Permeabilized cells incubated with ATP and GTP exhibited tubular processes-mediated redistribution from the Golgi area to the ER of the wild-type receptor, whereas the truncated form lacking the C-terminal domain remained concentrated in the Golgi. As revealed with a peptide-binding assay, this domain did not interact with both coatomer and ARF-GAP unless serine 209 was mutated to aspartic acid. In contrast, alanine replacement of serine 209 inhibited coatomer/ARF-GAP recruitment, receptor redistribution into the ER, and intracellular retention of KDEL ligands. Serine 209 was phosphorylated by both cytosolic and recombinant protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit. Inhibition of endogenous PKA activity with H89 blocked Golgi-ER transport of the native receptor but did not affect redistribution to the ER of a mutated form bearing aspartic acid at position 209. We conclude that PKA phosphorylation of serine 209 is required for the retrograde transport of the KDEL receptor from the Golgi complex to the ER from which the retrieval of proteins bearing the KDEL signal depends.

Abstract
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is involved in a variety of biological processes. Inclusion bodies associated with intermediate filaments (IFs) and ubiquitin are observed in various diseases; however, the precise mechanisms of formation and the pathological significance of inclusion bodies have not been fully understood. We examined the effect of proteasome inhibitors on the structure of IF using anti-cytokeratin antibodies or transfection of green fluorescent protein-fused cytokeratin 18 in a hepatoma cell line, Huh7. Intracellular organelles were visualized by immunofluorescent and electron microscopies. Proteasome inhibitors induced IF inclusions associated with ubiquitin. Electron microscopic examination revealed inclusion bodies surrounded by filamentous structures. Autophagic vacuoles and lysosomes were frequently observed, and the organization of the Golgi apparatus was disrupted in these cells. After the removal of the proteasome inhibitors, the IF network and organization of the Golgi apparatus were restored. The IF inclusions could be induced by inhibition of the proteasome function. IF inclusions induced fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus and might inhibit the function of this important station of membrane traffic. The IF inclusions disappeared by restoring proteasome function, and autophagy and lysosomal degradation might be, at least in part, associated with the elimination of inclusion bodies.

Abstract
'No cellular organelle has been the subject of as many, as long-lasting or as diverse polemics as the Golgi apparatus'. This statement was made by Whaley almost 30 years ago in the book The Golgi Apparatus and still holds true today, perhaps more then ever. Why is this? How come something as mundane as a series of intracellular membrane bound structures continues to fascinate and captivate a large section of the cell biology community? One simple reason (putting polemics aside) is that the secretory pathway appears deceptively simple. Once probed, however, it has a persistent habit of developing into an enigma. Is one then not closer than 30 years ago? In a sense yes, in that one has more components and a better understanding of inherent membrane dynamics, but it is still not known how newly synthesized proteins and lipids make their way from the ER to the plasma membrane. Is it by vesicles, cisternal carriers or transient tubular connections? It has also been learned that newly synthesized proteins are segregated away from the resident components throughout the pathway, but not how. Do coat proteins hold the key? It is understood that the cytoskeleton is important, but not really why. It is known that each Golgi stack is a fully functional unit, but not why stacks are connected laterally into a large ribbon (the Golgi apparatus). This review focuses on how proteins make their way through the pathway, a basic question that remains to be answered.

Abstract
We investigate the challenges and limitations that are encountered when studying membrane protein dynamics in vivo by means of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS). Based on theoretical arguments and computer simulations, we show that, in general, the fluctuating fluorescence has a fractal dimension D(0) >or= 1.5, which is determined by the anomality alpha of the diffusional motion of the labeled particles, i.e., by the growth of their mean square displacement as (Deltax)(2) approximately t(alpha). The fractality enforces an initial power-law behavior of the autocorrelation function and related quantities for small times. Using this information, we show by FCS that Golgi resident membrane proteins move subdiffusively in the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus in vivo. Based on Monte Carlo simulations for FCS on curved surfaces, we can rule out that the observed anomalous diffusion is a result of the complex topology of the membrane. The apparent mobility of particles as determined by FCS, however, is shown to depend crucially on the shape of the membrane and its motion in time. Due to this fact, the hydrodynamic radius of the tracked particles can be easily overestimated by an order of magnitude.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab1b is essential for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi transport, but its exact function remains unclear. We have examined the effects of wild-type and three mutant forms of Rab1b in vivo. We show that the inactive form of Rab1b (the N121I mutant with impaired guanine nucleotide binding) blocks forward transport of cargo and induces Golgi disruption. The phenotype is analogous to that induced by brefeldin A (BFA): it causes resident Golgi proteins to relocate to the ER and induces redistribution of ER-Golgi intermediate compartment proteins to punctate structures. The COPII exit machinery seems to be functional in cells expressing the N121I mutant, but COPI is compromised, as shown by the release of beta-COP into the cytosol. Our results suggest that Rab1b function influences COPI recruitment. In support of this, we show that the disruptive effects of N121I can be reversed by expressing known mediators of COPI recruitment, the GTPase ARF1 and its guanine nucleotide exchange factor GBF1. Further evidence is provided by the finding that cells expressing the active form of Rab1b (the Q67L mutant with impaired GTPase activity) are resistant to BFA. Our data suggest a novel role for Rab1b in ARF1- and GBF1-mediated COPI recruitment pathway.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of proteins to distinct plasma membrane domains is critical to the development and maintenance of polarity in epithelial cells. We used confocal and time-lapse total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIR-FM) to study changes in localization and exocytic sites of post-Golgi transport intermediates (PGTIs) carrying GFP-tagged apical or basolateral membrane proteins during epithelial polarization. In non-polarized Madin Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells, apical and basolateral PGTIs were present throughout the cytoplasm and were observed to fuse with the basal domain of the plasma membrane. During polarization, apical and basolateral PGTIs were restricted to different regions of the cytoplasm and their fusion with the basal membrane was completely abrogated. Quantitative analysis suggested that basolateral, but not apical, PGTIs fused with the lateral membrane in polarized cells, correlating with the restricted localization of Syntaxins 4 and 3 to lateral and apical membrane domains, respectively. Microtubule disruption induced Syntaxin 3 depolarization and fusion of apical PGTIs with the basal membrane, but affected neither the lateral localization of Syntaxin 4 or Sec6, nor promoted fusion of basolateral PGTIs with the basal membrane.

Abstract
Intermediate filaments are one of the three major cytoskeletons. Some roles of intermediate filaments in cellular functions have emerged based on various diseases associated with mutations of cytokeratins. However, the precise functions of intermediate filament are still unclear. To resolve this, we manipulated intermediate filaments of cultured cells by expressing a mutant cytokeratin. Arginine 89 of cytokeratin18 plays an important role in intermediate filament assembly. The expression of green fluorescent protein-tagged cytokeratin18 arg89cys induced aggregations and loss of the intermediate filament network composed of cytokeratins in liver-derived epithelial cells, Huh7 and OUMS29, but only induced the formation of cytokeratin aggregates and did not affect the intermediate filament network of endogenous vimentin in HEK293. The expression of this mutant affected the distribution of Golgi apparatus and the reassembly of Golgi apparatus after perturbations by nocodazole or brefeldin A in both Huh7 and OUMS29, but not in HEK293. Our data show that loss of the original intermediate filament network, but not the existence of cytokeratin aggregates, induces redistribution of the Golgi apparatus. The original intact intermediate filament network is necessary for the organization of Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Furin catalyses a simple biochemical reaction--the proteolytic maturation of proprotein substrates in the secretory pathway. But the simplicity of this reaction belies furin's broad and important roles in homeostasis, as well as in diseases ranging from Alzheimer's disease and cancer to anthrax and Ebola fever. This review summarizes various features of furin--its structural and enzymatic properties, intracellular localization, trafficking, substrates, and roles in vivo.

Abstract
Most models put forward to explain cellular processes do not stand the test of time. The 'lucky' few that are able to survive extensive experimental tests and peer critique may eventually become dogmas or paradigms. When this happens, the amount of experimental data required to overturn the paradigm is extensive. To some, such inertia may seem prohibitive to scientific progress but rather, in our opinion, this helps to maintain a degree of coherence. It is needed so that experiments and interpretations may be conducted within relatively safe boundaries. In the field of protein transport in the secretory pathway, we have enjoyed a relatively stable and productive period for quite some time (more than 30 years!). It is only very recently that the field has entered into a phase where all bets seem to be off. As in any paradigm shift, the accumulation of experimental observations inconsistent with the old dogma eventually reached a critical point. As we 'reluctantly' dispense with the long-standing paradigm of forward vesicular transport, we face a time that is bound to be trying as well as exciting.

Abstract
Formation of coated carrier vesicles, such as COPI-coated vesicles from the cis-Golgi, is triggered by membrane binding of the GTP-bound form of ADP-ribosylation factors. This process is blocked by brefeldin A, which is an inhibitor of guanine nucleotide exchange factors for ADP-ribosylation factor. GBF1 is one of the guanine nucleotide-exchange factors for ADP-ribosylation factor and is localized in the Golgi region. In the present study, we have determined the detailed subcellular localization of GBF1. Immunofluorescence microscopy of cells treated with nocodazole or incubated at 15 degrees C has suggested that GBF1 behaves similarly to proteins recycling between the cis-Golgi and the endoplasmic reticulum. Immunoelectron microscopy has revealed that GBF1 localizes primarily to vesicular and tubular structures apposed to the cis-face of Golgi stacks and minor fractions to the Golgi stacks. GBF1 overexpressed in cells causes recruitment of class I and class II ADP-ribosylation factors onto Golgi membranes. Furthermore, overexpressed GBF1 antagonizes various effects of brefeldin A, such as inhibition of membrane recruitment of ADP-ribosylation factors and the COPI coat, and redistribution of Golgi-resident and itinerant proteins. These observations indicate that GBF1 is involved in the formation of COPI-coated vesicles from the cis-Golgi or the pre-Golgi intermediate compartment through activating ADP-ribosylation factors.

Abstract
Actin is involved in the organization of the Golgi complex and Golgi-to-ER protein transport in mammalian cells. Little, however, is known about the regulation of the Golgi-associated actin cytoskeleton. We provide evidence that Cdc42, a small GTPase that regulates actin dynamics, controls Golgi-to-ER protein transport. We located GFP-Cdc42 in the lateral portions of Golgi cisternae and in COPI-coated and non-coated Golgi-associated transport intermediates. Overexpression of Cdc42 and its activated form Cdc42V12 inhibited the retrograde transport of Shiga toxin from the Golgi complex to the ER, the redistribution of the KDEL receptor, and the ER accumulation of Golgi-resident proteins induced by the active GTP-bound mutant of Sar1 (Sar1[H79G]). Coexpression of wild-type or activated Cdc42 and N-WASP also inhibited Golgi-to-ER transport, but this was not the case in cells expressing Cdc42V12 and N-WASP(Delta WA), a mutant form of N-WASP that lacks Arp2/3 binding. Furthermore, Cdc42V12 recruited GFP-N-WASP to the Golgi complex. We therefore conclude that Cdc42 regulates Golgi-to-ER protein transport in an N-WASP-dependent manner.

Abstract
Tissue-non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) is an ectoenzyme anchored to the plasma membrane via glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). A TNSALP mutant with an Asn(153)-->Asp (N153D) substitution was reported in a foetus diagnosed with perinatal hypophosphatasia (Mornet, Taillandier, Peyramaure, Kaper, Muller, Brenner, Bussiere, Freisinger, Godard, Merrer et al. (1998) Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 6, 308-314). When expressed ectopically in COS-1 cells, the wild-type TNSALP formed active non-covalently associated dimers, whereas TNSALP (N153D) formed aberrant disulphide-bonded high-molecular-mass aggregates devoid of enzyme activity. Cell-surface biotinylation and digestion with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C showed that TNSALP (N153D) failed to reach the cell surface. Instead, double immunofluorescence demonstrated that TNSALP (N153D) partially co-localized with a cis-Golgi marker (GM-130) at the steady-state. Upon treatment with brefeldin A, TNSALP (N153D) was still co-localized with GM-130, further supporting the finding that this mutant is localized in the cis-Golgi. Consistent with morphological results, pulse-chase experiments showed that newly synthesized TNSALP (N153D) remained endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H-sensitive throughout the chase. Eventually, after a prolonged chase time, the mutant was found to be partly degraded in a proteasome-dependent manner. Since the mutant TNSALP was significantly labelled with [3H]ethanolamine, a component of GPI, comparable with the wild-type enzyme, it is unlikely that the abortive synthesis of the mutant is due to a defect in GPI-attachment. Interestingly, when asparagine was replaced by glutamine at position 153 (N153D), TNSALP (N153Q) was indistinguishable from the wild-type enzyme in terms of its molecular properties, suggesting the possible importance of amino acids with a polar amide group at position 153. Taken together, these findings indicate that replacing asparagine with aspartic acid at position 153 causes misfolding and incorrect assembly of TNSALP, which results in its retention at the cis-Golgi en route to the cell surface, followed by a delayed degradation, presumably as part of a quality-control process. We postulate that the molecular basis of the perinatal hypophosphatasia associated with TNSALP (N153D) is due to the absence of mature TNSALP at the cell surface.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is partitioned during mitosis in animal cells by a process of fragmentation, dispersal, and reassembly in each daughter cell. We fractionated the Golgi apparatus in vivo using the drug brefeldin A or a dominant-negative mutant of the Sar1p protein. After these treatments, Golgi enzymes moved back to the endoplasmic reticulum, leaving behind a matrix of Golgi structural proteins. Under these conditions, cells still entered and exited mitosis normally, and their Golgi matrix partitioned in a manner very similar to that of the complete organelle. Thus, the matrix may be the partitioning unit of the Golgi apparatus and may carry the Golgi enzyme-containing membranes into the daughter cells.

Abstract
Cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion is a dynamic process that is regulated during embryonic development, cell migration, and differentiation. Different cadherins are expressed in specific tissues consistent with their roles in cell type recognition. In this study, we examine the formation of N-cadherin-dependent cell-cell contacts in fibroblasts and myoblasts. In contrast to E-cadherin, both endogenous and ectopically expressed N-cadherin shuttles between an intracellular and a plasma membrane pool. Initial formation of N-cadherin-dependent cell-cell contacts results from the recruitment of the intracellular pool of N-cadherin to the plasma membrane. N-cadherin also localizes to the Golgi apparatus and both secretory and endocytotic vesicles. We demonstrate that the intracellular pool of N-cadherin is tightly associated with the microtubule (MT) network and that junction formation requires MTs. In addition, localization of N-cadherin to the cortex is dependent on an intact F-actin cytoskeleton. We show that N-cadherin transport requires the MT network as well as the activity of the MT-associated motor kinesin. In conclusion, we propose that N-cadherin distribution is a regulated process promoted by cell-cell contact formation, which controls the biogenesis and turnover of the junctions through the MT network.

Abstract
We report here that the anterograde transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi was markedly suppressed by diacylglycerol kinase delta (DGKdelta) that uniquely possesses a pleckstrin homology (PH) and a sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain. A low-level expression of DGKdelta in NIH3T3 cells caused redistribution into the ER of the marker proteins of the Golgi membranes and the vesicular-tubular clusters (VTCs). In this case DGKdelta delayed the ER-to-Golgi traffic of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV G) and also the reassembly of the Golgi apparatus after brefeldin A (BFA) treatment and washout. DGKdelta was demonstrated to associate with the ER through its C-terminal SAM domain acting as an ER-targeting motif. Both of the SAM domain and the N-terminal PH domain of DGKdelta were needed to exert its effects on ER-to-Golgi traffic. Kinase-dead mutants of DGKdelta were also effective as the wild-type enzyme, suggesting that the catalytic activity of DGK was not involved in the present observation. Remarkably, the expression of DGKdelta abrogated formation of COPII-coated structures labeled with Sec13p without affecting COPI structures. These findings indicate that DGKdelta negatively regulates ER-to-Golgi traffic by selectively inhibiting the formation of ER export sites without significantly affecting retrograde transport.

Abstract
A cisternal progression mode of intra-Golgi transport requires that Golgi resident proteins recycle by peri-Golgi vesicles, whereas the alternative model of vesicular transport predicts anterograde cargo proteins to be present in such vesicles. We have used quantitative immuno-EM on NRK cells to distinguish peri-Golgi vesicles from other vesicles in the Golgi region. We found significant levels of the Golgi resident enzyme mannosidase II and the transport machinery proteins giantin, KDEL-receptor, and rBet1 in coatomer protein I-coated cisternal rims and peri-Golgi vesicles. By contrast, when cells expressed vesicular stomatitis virus protein G this anterograde marker was largely absent from the peri-Golgi vesicles. These data suggest a role of peri-Golgi vesicles in recycling of Golgi residents, rather than an important role in anterograde transport.

Abstract
Arl1 is a member of the ARF-like protein (Arl) subfamily of small GTPases. Nothing is known about the function of Arl1 except for the fact that it is essential for normal development in Drosophila and that it is associated with the Golgi apparatus. In this study, we first demonstrate that Arl1 is enriched at the trans side of the Golgi, marked by AP-1. Association of Arl1 with the Golgi is saturable in intact cells and depends on N-terminal myristoylation. Over-expression of Arl1(T31N), which is expected to be restricted to the GDP-bound form and thus function as a dominant-negative mutant, causes the disappearance of the Golgi apparatus (marked by Golgi SNARE GS28), suggesting that Arl1 is necessary for maintaining normal Golgi structure. Overexpression of Arl1(Q71L), a mutant restricted primarily to the activated GTP-bound form, causes an expansion of the Golgi apparatus with massive and stable Golgi association of COPI and AP-1 coats. Interestingly, Golgi ARFs also become stably associated with the expanded Golgi. Transport of the envelope protein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G) along the secretory pathway is arrested at the expanded Golgi upon expression of Arl1(Q71L). The structure of stacked cisternae of the Golgi is disrupted in cells expressing Arl1(Q71L), resulting in the transformation of the Golgi into an extensive vesicule-tubule network. In addition, the GTP form of Arl1 interacts with arfaptin-2/POR1 but not GGA1, both of which interact with GTP-restricted ARF1, suggesting that Arl1 and ARF1 share some common effectors in regulating cellular events. On the basis of these observations, we propose that one of the mechanisms for the cell to regulate the structure and function of the Golgi apparatus is through the action of Arl1.

Abstract
Golgi inheritance during cell division involves Golgi disassembly but it remains unclear whether the breakdown product is dispersed vesicles, clusters of vesicles or a fused ER/Golgi network. Evidence against the fused ER/Golgi hypothesis was previously obtained from subcellular fractionation studies, but left concerns about the means used to obtain and disrupt mitotic cells. Here, we performed velocity gradient analysis on otherwise untreated cells shaken from plates 9 h after release from an S-phase block. In addition, we used digitonin and freeze/thaw permeabilization as alternatives to mechanical homogenization. Under each of these conditions, approximately 75% of the Golgi was recovered in a population of small vesicles that lacked detectable ER. We also used multilabel fluorescent microscopy with optical sectioning by deconvolution to compare the 3D metaphase staining pattern of endogenous Golgi and ER markers. Although both ER and Golgi staining were primarily diffuse, only the ER was excluded from the mitotic spindle region. Surprisingly, only 2% of the Golgi fluorescence was present as resolvable structures previously characterized as vesicle clusters. These were not present in the ER pattern. Significantly, a portion of the diffuse Golgi fluorescence, presumably representing dispersed 60-nm vesicles, underwent an apparent rapid aggregation with the larger Golgi structures upon treatments that impaired microtubule integrity. Therefore, mitotic Golgi appears to be in a dynamic equilibrium between clustered and free vesicles, and accurate partitioning may be facilitated by microtubule-based motors acting on the clusters to insure random and uniform distribution of the vesicles.

Abstract
Mutations in the genes that encode the presenilin 1 and 2 (PS1 and PS2) proteins cause the majority of familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD). Differential cleavage of the presenilins results in a generation of at least two C-terminal fragments (CTFs). An increase in the smaller of these two CTFs is one of the few changes in presenilin processing associated with FAD mutations in both PS1 and PS2. Interestingly, the phosphorylation of PS2 modulates the production of the smaller, caspase-derived PS2 CTF, which indicates that the generation of this fragment is a regulated, physiologic event. To date, there is no data concerning the subcellular distribution of the caspase-derived PS2 CTF. Because this fragment is normally present at levels that are difficult to detect, we have used cell lines in which the production of wild-type or N141I mutant PS2 is controlled by a tetracycline-regulated promoter in order to assess the subcellular localization of the caspase CTF in relation to the larger, constitutive PS2 CTF and to PS2 holoprotein. We have found that when levels of PS2 are low, the constitutive CTF colocalizes with markers consistent with localization in the early Golgi-ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) while the caspase CTF colocalizes with markers for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Following induction of wild-type or mutant PS2, when the levels of PS2 are high, the primary localization of the constitutive CTF appears to shift from the early Golgi-ERGIC in addition to the ER. Interestingly, while the induction of wild-type PS2 resulted in the localization of the caspase CTF primarily in the ER, the induction of mutant PS2 resulted in the localization of the caspase CTF to both the ER and the early Golgi-ERGIC. In summary, these data suggest that the two presenilin 2 CTFs have different patterns of subcellular localization and that the N141I PS2 mutation alters the localization pattern of the PS2 caspase fragment.

Abstract
The role of rab33b, a Golgi-specific rab protein, was investigated. Microinjection of rab33b mutants stabilised in the GTP-specific state resulted in a marked inhibition of anterograde transport within the Golgi and in the recycling of glycosyltransferases from the Golgi to the ER, respectively. A GST-rab33b fusion protein stabilised in its GTP form was found to interact by Western blotting or mass spectroscopy with Golgi protein GM130 and rabaptin-5 and rabex-5, two rab effector molecules thought to function exclusively in the endocytic pathway. A similar binding was seen to rab1 but not to rab6, both Golgi rabs. In contrast, rab5 was as expected, shown to bind rabaptin-5 and rabex-5 as well as the endosomal effector protein EEA1 but not GM130. No binding of EEA1 was seen to any of the Golgi rabs.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus comprises an enormous array of components that generate its unique architecture and function within cells. Here, we use quantitative fluorescence imaging techniques and ultrastructural analysis to address whether the Golgi apparatus is a steady-state or a stable organelle. We found that all classes of Golgi components are dynamically associated with this organelle, contrary to the prediction of the stable organelle model. Enzymes and recycling components are continuously exiting and reentering the Golgi apparatus by membrane trafficking pathways to and from the ER, whereas Golgi matrix proteins and coatomer undergo constant, rapid exchange between membrane and cytoplasm. When ER to Golgi transport is inhibited without disrupting COPII-dependent ER export machinery (by brefeldin A treatment or expression of Arf1[T31N]), the Golgi structure disassembles, leaving no residual Golgi membranes. Rather, all Golgi components redistribute into the ER, the cytoplasm, or to ER exit sites still active for recruitment of selective membrane-bound and peripherally associated cargos. A similar phenomenon is induced by the constitutively active Sar1[H79G] mutant, which has the additional effect of causing COPII-associated membranes to cluster to a juxtanuclear region. In cells expressing Sar1[T39N], a constitutively inactive form of Sar1 that completely disrupts ER exit sites, Golgi glycosylation enzymes, matrix, and itinerant proteins all redistribute to the ER. These results argue against the hypothesis that the Golgi apparatus contains stable components that can serve as a template for its biogenesis. Instead, they suggest that the Golgi complex is a dynamic, steady-state system, whose membranes can be nucleated and are maintained by the activities of the Sar1-COPII and Arf1-coatomer systems.

Abstract
We tested whether the entire Golgi apparatus is a dynamic structure in interphase mammalian cells by assessing the response of 12 different Golgi region proteins to an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit block. The proteins chosen spanned the Golgi apparatus and included both Golgi glycosyltransferases and putative matrix proteins. Protein exit from ER was blocked either by microinjection of a GTP-restricted Sar1p mutant protein in the presence of a protein synthesis inhibitor, or by plasmid-encoded expression of the same dominant negative Sar1p. All Golgi region proteins examined lost juxtanuclear Golgi apparatus-like distribution as scored by conventional and confocal fluorescence microscopy in response to an ER exit block, albeit with a differential dependence on Sar1p concentration. Redistribution of GalNAcT2 was more sensitive to low Sar1p(dn) concentrations than giantin or GM130. Redistribution was most rapid for p27, COPI, and p115. Giantin, GM130, and GalNAcT2 relocated with approximately equal kinetics. Distinct ER accumulation could be demonstrated for all integral membrane proteins. ER-accumulated Golgi region proteins were functional. Photobleaching experiments indicated that Golgi-to-ER protein cycling occurred in the absence of any ER exit block. We conclude that the entire Golgi apparatus is a dynamic structure and suggest that most, if not all, Golgi region-integral membrane proteins cycle through ER in interphase cells.

Abstract
Although all mammalian COPII components have now been cloned, little is known of their interactions with other regulatory proteins involved in exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We report here that a mammalian protein (Yip1A) that is about 31% identical to S. cerevisiae and which interacts with and modulates COPII-mediated ER-Golgi transport. Yip1A transcripts are ubiquitously expressed. Transcripts of a related mammalian homologue, Yip1B, are found specifically in the heart. Indirect immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that Yip1A is localized to vesicular structures that are concentrated at the perinuclear region. The structures marked by Yip1A co-localized with Sec31A and Sec13, components of the COPII coat protein complex. Immunoelectron microscopy also showed that Yip1A co-localizes with Sec13 at ER exit sites. Overexpression of the hydrophilic N terminus of Yip1A arrests ER-Golgi transport of the vesicular stomatitis G protein and causes fragmentation and dispersion of the Golgi apparatus. A glutathione S-transferase fusion protein with the hydrophilic N terminus of Yip1A (GST-Yip1A) is able to bind to and deplete vital components from rat liver cytosol that is essential for in vitro vesicular stomatitis G transport. Peptide sequence analysis of cytosolic proteins that are specifically bound to GST-Yip1A revealed, among other proteins, mammalian COPII components Sec23 and Sec24. A highly conserved domain at the N terminus of Yip1A is required for Sec23/Sec24 interaction. Our results suggest that Yip1A is involved in the regulation of ER-Golgi traffic at the level of ER exit sites.

Abstract
Inhibition of the putative coatomer protein I (COPI) vesicle tethering complex, giantin-p115-GM130, may contribute to mitotic Golgi breakdown. However, neither this, nor the role of the giantin-p115-GM130 complex in the maintenance of Golgi structure has been demonstrated in vivo. Therefore, we generated antibodies directed against the mapped binding sites in each protein of the complex and injected these into mammalian tissue culture cells. Surprisingly, the injected anti-p115 and antigiantin antibodies caused proteasome-mediated degradation of the corresponding antigens. Reduction of p115 levels below detection led to COPI-dependent Golgi fragmentation and apparent accumulation of Golgi-derived vesicles. In contrast, neither reduction of giantin below detectable levels, nor inhibition of p115 binding to GM130, had any detectable effect on Golgi structure or Golgi reassembly after cell division or brefeldin A washout. These observations indicate that inhibition of p115 can induce a mitotic-like Golgi disassembly, but its essential role in Golgi structure is independent of its Golgi-localized binding partners giantin and GM130.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To maintain organelle integrity, resident proteins must segregate from itinerant cargo during secretory transport. However, Golgi resident enzymes must have intimate access to secretory cargo in order to carry out glycosylation reactions. The amount of cargo and associated membrane may be significant compared to the amount of Golgi membrane and resident protein, but upon Golgi exit, cargo and resident are efficiently sorted. How this occurs in live cells is not known. RESULTS We observed partitioning of the fluorescent Golgi resident T2-CFP and fluorescent cargo proteins VSVG3-YFP or VSVG3-SP-YFP upon Golgi exit after a synchronous pulse of cargo was released from the ER. Golgi elements remained stable in overall size, shape and relative position as cargo emptied. Cargo segregated from resident rapidly by blebbing into micron-sized domains that contained little or no detectable resident protein and that appeared to be continuous with the parent Golgi element. Post-Golgi transport carriers (TCs) exited repeatedly from these domains. Alternatively, entire cargo domains exited Golgi elements, forming large TCs that fused directly with the plasma membrane. However, domain formation did not appear to be an absolute prerequisite for TC exit, since TCs also exited directly from Golgi elements in the absence of large domains. Quantitative cargo-specific photobleaching experiments revealed transfer of cargo between Golgi regions, but no discrete intra-Golgi TCs were observed. CONCLUSIONS Our results establish domain formation via rapid lateral partitioning as a general cellular strategy for segregating different transmembrane proteins along the secretory pathway and provide a framework for consideration of molecular mechanisms of secretory transport.

Abstract
Eukaryotes are characterized by endomembranes that are connected by vesicular transport along secretory and endocytic pathways. The compositional differences between the various cellular membranes are maintained by sorting events, and it has long been believed that sorting is based solely on protein-protein interactions. However, the central sorting station along the secretory pathway is the Golgi apparatus, and this is the site of synthesis of the sphingolipids. Sphingolipids are essential for eukaryotic life, and this review ascribes the sorting power of the Golgi to its capability to act as a distillation apparatus for sphingolipids and cholesterol. As Golgi cisternae mature, ongoing sphingolipid synthesis attracts endoplasmic reticulum-derived cholesterol and drives a fluid-fluid lipid phase separation that segregates sphingolipids and sterols from unsaturated glycerolipids into lateral domains. While sphingolipid domains move forward, unsaturated glycerolipids are retrieved by recycling vesicles budding from the sphingolipid-poor environment. We hypothesize that by this mechanism, the composition of the sphingolipid domains, and the surrounding membrane changes along the cis-trans axis. At the same time the membrane thickens. These features are recognized by a number of membrane proteins that as a consequence of partitioning between domain and environment follow the domains but can enter recycling vesicles at any stage of the pathway. The interplay between protein- and lipid-mediated sorting is discussed.

Abstract
To quantitatively investigate the trafficking of the transmembrane lectin VIP36 and its relation to cargo-containing transport carriers (TCs), we analyzed a C-terminal fluorescent-protein (FP) fusion, VIP36-SP-FP. When expressed at moderate levels, VIP36-SP-FP localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and intermediate transport structures, and colocalized with epitope-tagged VIP36. Temperature shift and pharmacological experiments indicated VIP36-SP-FP recycled in the early secretory pathway, exhibiting trafficking representative of a class of transmembrane cargo receptors, including the closely related lectin ERGIC53. VIP36-SP-FP trafficking structures comprised tubules and globular elements, which translocated in a saltatory manner. Simultaneous visualization of anterograde secretory cargo and VIP36-SP-FP indicated that the globular structures were pre-Golgi carriers, and that VIP36-SP-FP segregated from cargo within the Golgi and was not included in post-Golgi TCs. Organelle-specific bleach experiments directly measured the exchange of VIP36-SP-FP between the Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Fitting a two-compartment model to the recovery data predicted first order rate constants of 1.22 +/- 0.44%/min for ER --> Golgi, and 7.68 +/- 1.94%/min for Golgi --> ER transport, revealing a half-time of 113 +/- 70 min for leaving the ER and 1.67 +/- 0.45 min for leaving the Golgi, and accounting for the measured steady-state distribution of VIP36-SP-FP (13% Golgi/87% ER). Perturbing transport with AlF(4)(-) treatment altered VIP36-SP-GFP distribution and changed the rate constants. The parameters of the model suggest that relatively small differences in the first order rate constants, perhaps manifested in subtle differences in the tendency to enter distinct TCs, result in large differences in the steady-state localization of secretory components.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells use a variety of strategies to inherit the Golgi apparatus. During vertebrate mitosis, the Golgi reorganizes dramatically in a process that seems to be driven by the reversible fragmentation of existing Golgi structures and the temporary redistribution of Golgi components to the endoplasmic reticulum. Several proteins that participate in vertebrate Golgi inheritance have been identified, but their detailed functions remain unknown. A comparison between vertebrates and other eukaryotes reveals common mechanisms of Golgi inheritance. In many cell types, Golgi stacks undergo fission early in mitosis. Some cells exhibit a further Golgi breakdown that is probably due to a mitotic inhibition of membrane traffic. In all eukaryotes examined, Golgi inheritance involves either the partitioning of pre-existing Golgi elements between the daughter cells or the emergence of new Golgi structures from the endoplasmic reticulum, or some combination of these two pathways.

Abstract
The transcription factor Pit-1/GHF-1 plays an important role in regulating the prolactin (Prl) and growth hormone (GH) genes in mammals. In this study, the role that Pit-1 plays in regulating the prolactin and growth hormone genes in avian species was examined by cotransfection assays and immunofluorescence staining of pituitary sections. In cotransfection assays, turkey Pit-1 activated the turkey Prl, turkey GH, and rat Prl promoters 3.8-, 3.7-, and 12.5-fold, respectively. This activation was comparable to rat Pit-1 activation of these same promoters. A point mutation in the turkey Pit-1 cDNA, which changed leu-219 to ser-219, resulted in a 2-, 2-, and 10-fold reduction in the activation of the turkey Prl, turkey GH, and rat Prl promoters, respectively. Unexpectedly, coexpression of tPit-1 (leu-219) and tPit-1(ser-219) activated turkey Prl and rat Prl promoters 9.4- and 35.9-fold, respectively, but had no effect on the turkey GH promoter. Dual-label immunofluorescence analysis of turkey pituitary sections revealed that Pit-1 was not detectable in prolactin-staining cells but was detectable in GH-staining cells. Taken together, these data indicate that in the domestic turkey, Pit-1 can activate the turkey Prl promoter in vitro, but does not appear to play a role in regulating Prl gene expression in vivo. Pit-1, however, still likely plays a role in regulating GH gene expression.

Abstract
The steady-state localization of medial-Golgi enzymes is likely to involve retrograde transport pathways; however, the trafficking of these resident enzymes through the Golgi stack is unclear. To investigate if the medial-Golgi enzyme beta-1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase I (GlcNAc-TI) is transported to the late Golgi, a modified GlcNAc-TI bearing an N-glycan site on the C-terminus was constructed. The modified GlcNAc-TI was demonstrated to be functionally active in vivo, and was localized to the Golgi stack of transfected cells. In stable Chinese-hamster ovary (CHO) cell clones, the N-glycosylated GlcNAc-TI carried sialylated complex N-glycan chains. Pulse-chase studies showed that the majority of GlcNAc-TI was sialylated within 60 min of synthesis. Treatment of transfected CHO cells with Brefeldin A resulted in the glycosylated GlcNAc-TI bearing endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H resistant chains; however, the sialylation of glycosylated GlcNAc-TI was dramatically reduced. These data imply that, in CHO cells, newly synthesized GlcNAc-TI is transported rapidly through the Golgi stack to the trans-Golgi network, suggesting that GlcNAc-TI continuously recycles from the late Golgi. Furthermore, this data suggests that retrograde transport pathways play an important role in establishing the asymmetric distribution of GlcNAc-TI within the Golgi stack.

Abstract
We examined the functional co-localization and continuity of glycosyltransferases and sugar nucleotide transporters in the Golgi of two Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines that synthesize different types of O-linked oligosaccharides. CHO cells normally synthesize primarily Sia2,3Galbeta1,3GalNAc- on glycoproteins. CHO cells transfected with core-2 GlcNAc transferase (Core 2) can synthesize glycoproteins containing branched O-linked oligosaccharides with poly-N-acetyllactosamines. CHO lines incubated with [(3)H]galactose and GalNAc-alpha-phenyl (GAP) as a primer, synthesize labeled glycoside products that faithfully resemble those found on the endogenous acceptors: CHO cells make Sia2,3[(3)H]Gal(beta)1,3GAP, while CHO Core2 cells synthesize GAPs with complex branched chains including poly-N-acetyllactosamines. To determine if isolated Golgi preparations make similar products, we prepared Golgi by established homogenization methods, documented their intactness, and added tracer UDP-[(3)H]Gal, unlabeled sugar nucleotides, and GAP. CHO Golgi preparations synthesized only Sia2,3[(3)H]Gal(beta)1,3GAP. CHO Core2, also made this product and a small amount of Core-2 GlcNAc transferase-dependent products. No endogenous glycoproteins were labeled. However, when either cell line was gently permeabilized with streptolysin-O or given hypo-osmotic shock, both GAP and endogenous acceptors were efficiently glycosylated within an intact functional Golgi lumen and remained there. Significantly, Golgi from CHO Core2 cells made mostly branched GAP products including some with poly-N-acetyllactosamines as complex as those made and secreted by living cells incubated with GAP. These results suggest that the lumen of the Golgi apparatus is functionally continuous or interconnected. Once glycosides diffuse into the Golgi lumen, they have access to all the sugar nucleotide transporters and glycosyltransferases used for complex GAP-based products without requiring metabolic energy or inter-vesicular transport. Glycosylation of artificial acceptors could be used to track the functional continuity or co-localization of multiple glycosyltransferases and transporters under conditions where Golgi morphology disintegrates and/or reappears.

Abstract
The localisation of glycosylation enzymes within the Golgi apparatus is fundamental to the regulation of glycoprotein and glycolipid biosynthesis. Regions responsible for specifying Golgi localisation have been identified in numerous Golgi resident enzymes. The transmembrane domain of Golgi glycosyltransferases provides a dominant localisation signal and in many cases there are also major contributions from the lumenal domain. The mechanism by which these targeting domains function in maintaining an asymmetric distribution of Golgi resident glycosylation enzymes has been intensely debated in recent years. It is now clear that the targeting of Golgi resident enzymes is intimately associated with the organisation of Golgi membranes and the control of protein and lipid traffic in both anterograde and retrograde directions. Here we discuss the recent advances into how Golgi targeting signals of glycosylation enzymes function, and propose a model for maintaining the steady-state localisation of Golgi glycosyltransferases.

Abstract
Vaccinia virus (VV) egress has been studied using confocal, video, and electron microscopy. Previously, intracellular-enveloped virus (IEV) particles were proposed to induce the polymerization of actin tails, which propel IEV particles to the cell surface. However, data presented support an alternative model in which microtubules transport virions to the cell surface and actin tails form beneath cell-associated enveloped virus (CEV) particles at the cell surface. Thus, VV is unique in using both microtubules and actin filaments for egress. The following data support this proposal. (a) Microscopy detected actin tails at the surface but not the center of cells. (b) VV mutants lacking the A33R, A34R, or A36R proteins are unable to induce actin tail formation but produce CEV and extracellular-enveloped virus. (c) CEV formation is inhibited by nocodazole but not cytochalasin D or 4-amino-5-(4-methylphenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo(3,4-d)pyrimidine (PP1). (d) IEV particles tagged with the enhanced green fluorescent protein fused to the VV B5R protein moved inside cells at 60 microm/min. This movement was stop-start, was along defined pathways, and was inhibited reversibly by nocodazole. This velocity was 20-fold greater than VV movement on actin tails and consonant with the rate of movement of organelles along microtubules.

Abstract
We have examined the fate of Golgi membranes during mitotic inheritance in animal cells using four-dimensional fluorescence microscopy, serial section reconstruction of electron micrographs, and peroxidase cytochemistry to track the fate of a Golgi enzyme fused to horseradish peroxidase. All three approaches show that partitioning of Golgi membranes is mediated by Golgi clusters that persist throughout mitosis, together with shed vesicles that are often found associated with spindle microtubules. We have been unable to find evidence that Golgi membranes fuse during the later phases of mitosis with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as a strategy for Golgi partitioning (Zaal, K.J., C.L. Smith, R.S. Polishchuk, N. Altan, N.B. Cole, J. Ellenberg, K. Hirschberg, J.F. Presley, T.H. Roberts, E. Siggia, et al. 1999. Cell. 99:589-601) and suggest that these results, in part, are the consequence of slow or abortive folding of GFP-Golgi chimeras in the ER. Furthermore, we show that accurate partitioning is accomplished early in mitosis, by a process of cytoplasmic redistribution of Golgi fragments and vesicles yielding a balance of Golgi membranes on either side of the metaphase plate before cell division.

Abstract
The yeast SNARE Ykt6p has been implicated in several trafficking steps, including vesicular transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi, intra-Golgi transport, and homotypic vacuole fusion. The functional role of its mammalian homologue (Ykt6) has not been established. Using antibodies specific for mammalian Ykt6, it is revealed that it is found mainly in Golgi-enriched membranes. Three SNAREs, syntaxin 5, GS28, and Bet1, are specifically associated with Ykt6 as revealed by co-immunoprecipitation, suggesting that these four SNAREs form a SNARE complex. Double labeling of Ykt6 and the Golgi marker mannosidase II or the ER-Golgi recycling marker KDEL receptor suggests that Ykt6 is primarily associated with the Golgi apparatus. Unlike the KDEL receptor, Ykt6 does not cycle back to the peripheral ER exit sites. Antibodies against Ykt6 inhibit in vitro ER-Golgi transport of vesicular stomatitis virus envelope glycoprotein (VSVG) only when they are added before the EGTA-sensitive stage. ER-Golgi transport of VSVG in vitro is also inhibited by recombinant Ykt6. In the presence of antibodies against Ykt6, VSVG accumulates in peri-Golgi vesicular structures and is prevented from entering the mannosidase II compartment, suggesting that Ykt6 functions at a late stage in ER-Golgi transport. Golgi apparatus marked by mannosidase II is fragmented into vesicular structures in cells microinjected with Ykt6 antibodies. It is concluded that Ykt6 functions in a late step of ER-Golgi transport, and this role may be important for the integrity of the Golgi complex.

Abstract
We show that the Golgi complex can directly stimulate microtubule nucleation in vivo and in vitro and thus behaves as a potent microtubule-organizing organelle in interphase cells. With the use of nocodazole wash-out experiments in hepatic cells, we found that the occurrence of noncentrosomal, early stabilized microtubules is highly correlated with the subcellular localization of Golgi membranes. With the use of in vitro reconstituted microtubule assembly systems with or without cytosol, we also found that, in contrast to centrosomally attached microtubules, the distal ends of Golgi-attached microtubules are remotely stabilized in a way that requires additional cytosolic component(s). Finally, we demonstrate that Golgi-based microtubule nucleation is direct and involves a subset of gamma-tubulin bound to the cytoplasmic face of the organelle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epithelial cells in the renal inner medulla accumulate osmolytes such as betaine to maintain normal cell volume during prolonged extracellular hypertonic stress. Betaine accumulation is the result of activation of transcription of the BGT1 transporter gene followed by increased betaine transport. METHODS We studied the possible role of microtubules in this adaptive mechanism using renal cells in culture. RESULTS.: In cultured renal cell lines [Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and mouse inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD-3)], up-regulation of BGT1 activity was maximal after 24 to 30 hours in growth medium made hypertonic (510 mOsm/kg) by the addition of sucrose or NaCl. Up-regulation was reversed within 24 to 36 hours after returning cells to isotonic medium. Both cycloheximide (20 micromol/L) and nocodazole (20 micromol/L) blocked the hypertonic up-regulation of BGT1. Nocodazole was partially effective even when added 16 to 20 hours after the switch to hypertonic medium. Recovery from nocodazole action was rapid, and there was full activation of BGT1 transport within three to six hours after nocodazole removal, suggesting rapid trafficking to the cell surface once microtubules repolymerized. Hypertonic activation of BGT1 transport was detected in an isolated membrane fraction and was blocked by cycloheximide but not by nocodazole. Confocal microscopy confirmed the increased abundance of BGT1 proteins in the plasma membrane of hypertonic cells and showed that BGT1 remained intracellular during nocodazole treatment. CONCLUSIONS Hypertonic activation of BGT1 in renal cells requires de novo protein synthesis and microtubule-dependent trafficking of additional transporters to the cell surface. The apparent resistance of membrane BGT1 to nocodazole blockade is likely due to the presence in the membrane fraction of an increased intracellular pool of active BGT1 transporters.

Abstract
Since the advent of the green fluorescent protein, the subcellular localization, mobility, transport routes and binding interactions of proteins can be studied in living cells. Live cell imaging, in combination with photobleaching, energy transfer or fluorescence correlation spectroscopy are providing unprecedented insights into the movement of proteins and their interactions with cellular components. Remarkably, these powerful techniques are accessible to non-specialists using commercially available microscope systems.

Abstract
Transport of BPV-1 virus from the cell membrane to the nucleus was studied in vitro in CV-1 cells. At reduced temperature (4 degrees C), BPV-1 binding to CV-1 cells was unaffected but there was no transport of virions across the cytosol. Electron microscopy showed BPV-1 virions in association with microtubules in the cytoplasm, a finding confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation of L1 protein and tubulin. Internalization of virus was unimpaired in cells treated with the microtubule-depolymerizing drug nocodazole but virions were retained in cytoplasmic vesicles and not transported to the nucleus. We conclude that a microtubule transport mechanism in CV-1 cells moves intact BPV-1 virions from the cell surface to the nuclear membrane.

Abstract
During skeletal muscle differentiation, the Golgi complex (GC) undergoes a dramatic reorganization. We have now visualized the differentiation and fusion of living myoblasts of the mouse muscle cell line C2, permanently expressing a mannosidase-green fluorescent protein (GFP) construct. These experiments reveal that the reorganization of the GC is progressive (1-2 h) and is completed before the cells start fusing. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP), immunofluorescence, and immunogold electron microscopy demonstrate that the GC is fragmented into elements localized near the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites. FRAP analysis and the ER relocation of endogenous GC proteins by phospholipase A2 inhibitors demonstrate that Golgi-ER cycling of resident GC proteins takes place in both myoblasts and myotubes. All results support a model in which the GC reorganization in muscle reflects changes in the Golgi-ER cycling. The mechanism is similar to that leading to the dispersal of the GC caused, in all mammalian cells, by microtubule-disrupting drugs. We propose that the trigger for the dispersal results, in muscle, from combined changes in microtubule nucleation and ER exit site localization, which place the ER exit sites near microtubule minus ends. Thus, changes in GC organization that initially appear specific to muscle cells, in fact use pathways common to all mammalian cells.

Abstract
Microtubules are central to the spatial organization of diverse membrane-trafficking systems. Here, we report that Hook proteins constitute a novel family of cytosolic coiled coil proteins that bind to organelles and to microtubules. The conserved NH(2)-terminal domains of Hook proteins mediate attachment to microtubules, whereas the more divergent COOH-terminal domains mediate the binding to organelles. Human Hook3 bound to Golgi membranes in vitro and was enriched in the cis-Golgi in vivo. Unlike other cis-Golgi-associated proteins, however, a large fraction of Hook3 maintained its juxtanuclear localization after Brefeldin A treatment, indicating a Golgi-independent mechanism for Hook3 localization. Because overexpression of Hook3 caused fragmentation of the Golgi complex, we propose that Hook3 participates in defining the architecture and localization of the mammalian Golgi complex.

Abstract
People homozygous for mutations in the Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) gene have physiological defects, including excess accumulation of intracellular cholesterol and other lipids, that lead to drastic neural and liver degeneration. The NPC1 multipass transmembrane protein is resident in late endosomes and lysosomes, but its functions are unknown. We find that organelles containing functional NPC1-fluorescent protein fusions undergo dramatic movements, some in association with extending strands of endoplasmic reticulum. In NPC1 mutant cells the NPC1-bearing organelles that normally move at high speed between perinuclear regions and the periphery of the cell are largely absent. Pulse-chase experiments with dialkylindocarbocyanine low-density lipoprotein showed that NPC1 organelles function late in the endocytic pathway; NPC1 protein may aid the partitioning of endocytic and lysosomal compartments. The close connection between NPC1 and the drug U18666A, which causes NPC1-like organelle defects, was established by rescuing drug-treated cells with overproduced NPC1. U18666A inhibits outward movements of NPC1 organelles, trapping membranes and cholesterol in perinuclear organelles similar to those in NPC1 mutant cells, even when cells are grown in lipoprotein-depleted serum. We conclude that NPC1 protein promotes the creation and/or movement of particular late endosomes, which rapidly transport materials to and from the cell periphery.

Abstract
The biogenesis and maintenance of asymmetry is crucial to many cellular functions including absorption and secretion, signalling, development and morphogenesis. Here we have directly visualized the segregation and trafficking of apical (glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol-anchored) and basolateral (vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein) cargo in living cells using multicolour imaging of green fluorescent protein variants. Apical and basolateral cargo segregate progressively into large domains in Golgi/trans-Golgi network structures, exclude resident proteins, and exit in separate transport containers. These remain distinct and do not merge with endocytic structures suggesting that lateral segregation in the trans-Golgi network is the primary sorting event. Fusion with the plasma membrane was detected by total internal reflection microscopy and reveals differences between apical and basolateral carriers as well as new 'hot spots' for exocytosis.

Abstract
Mnn9p is a component of two distinct multiprotein complexes in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cis-Golgi that have both been shown to have alpha-1,6-mannosyltransferase activity in vitro. In one of these complexes, Mnn9p associates with four other membrane proteins, Anp1p, Mnn10p, Mnn11p, and Hoc1p, whereas the other complex consists of Mnn9p and Van1p. Members of the Mnn9p-containing complexes were incorporated into COPII vesicles made in vitro from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes isolated from cycloheximide-treated cells. This behavior is consistent with an active Golgi to ER recycling process. To examine this path in vivo, we monitored retrograde transport of subunits of the complex in cells blocked in anterograde transport from the ER. In this situation, specific relocation of the proteins from the Golgi to the ER was observed in the absence of new protein synthesis. Conversely, when retrograde transport was blocked in vivo, subunits of the mannosyltransferase complex accumulated in the vacuole. Packaging of Mnn9p in COPI-coated vesicles from purified Golgi membranes was also investigated using a coatomer-dependent vesicle budding assay. Gradient fractionation experiments showed that Mnn9p and the retrograde v-SNARE, Sec22p, were incorporated into COPI-coated vesicles. These observations indicate that the Mnn9p-containing mannosyltransferase complexes cycle back and forth between the ER and Golgi.
