Abstract
Emerging as a potent anticancer treatment, subcellular targeted cancer therapy has drawn increasing attention, bringing great opportunities for clinical application. Here, two targeting strategies for four main subcellular organelles (mitochondria, lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum, and nucleus), including molecule- and nanomaterial (inorganic nanoparticles, micelles, organic polymers, and others)-based targeted delivery or therapeutic strategies, are summarized. Phototherapy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and "all-in-one" combination therapy are among the strategies covered in detail. Such materials are constructed based on the specific properties and relevant mechanisms of organelles, enabling the elimination of tumors by inducing dysfunction in the corresponding organelles or destroying specific structures. The challenges faced by organelle-targeting cancer therapies are also summarized. Looking forward, a paradigm for organelle-targeting therapy with enhanced therapeutic efficacy compared to current clinical approaches is envisioned.

Branched Actin Maintains Acetylated Microtubule Network in the Early Secretory Pathway. Cells 2021; 11:cells11010015. [PMID: 35011578 PMCID: PMC8750537 DOI: 10.3390/cells11010015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2021] [Revised: 12/12/2021] [Accepted: 12/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
In the early secretory pathway, the delivery of anterograde cargoes from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites (ERES) to the Golgi apparatus is a multi-step transport process occurring via the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC, also called ERGIC). While the role microtubules in ER-to-Golgi transport has been well established, how the actin cytoskeleton contributes to this process remains poorly understood. Here, we report that Arp2/3 inhibition affects the network of acetylated microtubules around the Golgi and induces the accumulation of unusually long RAB1/GM130-positive carriers around the centrosome. These long carriers are less prone to reach the Golgi apparatus, and arrival of anterograde cargoes to the Golgi is decreased upon Arp2/3 inhibition. Our data suggest that Arp2/3-dependent actin polymerization maintains a stable network of acetylated microtubules, which ensures efficient cargo trafficking at the late stage of ER to Golgi transport.

Abstract
Plasmodium falciparum extensively remodels human erythrocytes by exporting hundreds of parasite proteins. This remodeling is closely linked to the Plasmodium virulence-related functions and immune evasion. The N-terminal export signal named PEXEL (Plasmodium export element) was identified to be important for the export of proteins beyond the PVM, however, the issue of how these PEXEL-positive proteins are transported and regulated by Rab GTPases from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cell surface has remained poorly understood. Previously, we identified new aspects of the trafficking of N-myristoylated adenylate kinase 2 (PfAK2), which lacks the PEXEL motif and is regulated by the PfRab5b GTPase. Overexpression of PfRab5b suppressed the transport of PfAK2 to the parasitophorous vacuole membrane and PfAK2 was accumulated in the punctate compartment within the parasite. Here, we report the identification of PfRab5b associated proteins and dissect the pathway regulated by PfRab5b. We isolated two membrane trafficking GTPases PfArf1 and PfRab1b by coimmunoprecipitation with PfRab5b and via mass analysis. PfArf1 and PfRab1b are both colocalized with PfRab5b adjacent to the ER in the early erythrocytic stage. A super-resolution microgram of the indirect immunofluorescence assay using PfArf1 or PfRab1b- expressing parasites revealed that PfArf1 and PfRab1b are localized to different ER subdomains. We used a genetic approach to expresses an active or inactive mutant of PfArf1 that specifically inhibited the trafficking of PfAK2 to the parasitophorous vacuole membrane. While expression of PfRab1b mutants did not affect in the PfAK2 transport. In contrast, the export of the PEXEL-positive protein Rifin was decreased by the expression of the inactive mutant of PfRab1b or PfArf1. These data indicate that the transport of PfAK2 and Rifin were recognized at the different ER subdomain by the two independent GTPases: PfAK2 is sorted by PfArf1 into the pathway for the PV, and the export of Rifin might be sequentially regulated by PfArf1 and PfRab1b.

Abstract
A characteristic feature of vertebrate cells is a Golgi ribbon consisting of multiple cisternal stacks connected into a single-copy organelle next to the centrosome. Despite numerous studies, the mechanisms that link the stacks together and the functional significance of ribbon formation remain poorly understood. Nevertheless, these questions are of considerable interest, since there is increasing evidence that Golgi fragmentation – the unlinking of the stacks in the ribbon – is intimately connected not only to normal physiological processes, such as cell division and migration, but also to pathological states, including neurodegeneration and cancer. Challenging a commonly held view that ribbon architecture involves the formation of homotypic tubular bridges between the Golgi stacks, we present an alternative model, based on direct interaction between the biosynthetic (pre-Golgi) and endocytic (post-Golgi) membrane networks and their connection with the centrosome. We propose that the central domains of these permanent pre- and post-Golgi networks function together in the biogenesis and maintenance of the more transient Golgi stacks, and thereby establish “linker compartments” that dynamically join the stacks together. This model provides insight into the reversible fragmentation of the Golgi ribbon that takes place in dividing and migrating cells and its regulation along a cell surface – Golgi – centrosome axis. Moreover, it helps to understand transport pathways that either traverse or bypass the Golgi stacks and the positioning of the Golgi apparatus in differentiated neuronal, epithelial, and muscle cells.

Abstract
Despite its discovery more than three decades ago and well-established role in protein sorting and trafficking in the early secretory pathway, the intermediate compartment (IC) has remained enigmatic. The prevailing view is that the IC evolved as a specialized organelle to mediate long-distance endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–Golgi communication in metazoan cells, but is lacking in other eukaryotes, such as plants and fungi. However, this distinction is difficult to reconcile with the high conservation of the core machineries that regulate early secretory trafficking from yeast to man. Also, it has remained unclear whether the pleiomorphic IC components—vacuoles, tubules and vesicles—represent transient transport carriers or building blocks of a permanent pre-Golgi organelle. Interestingly, recent studies have revealed that the IC maintains its compositional, structural and spatial properties throughout the cell cycle, supporting a model that combines the dynamic and stable aspects of the organelle. Moreover, the IC has been assigned novel functions, such as cell signaling, Golgi-independent trafficking and autophagy. The emerging permanent nature of the IC and its connections with the centrosome and the endocytic recycling system encourage reconsideration of its relationship with the Golgi ribbon, role in Golgi biogenesis and ubiquitous presence in eukaryotic cells.

Abstract
Although there have been advances in our understanding of carcinogenesis and development of new treatments, cancer remains a common cause of death. Many regulatory pathways are incompletely understood in cancer development and progression, with a prime example being those related to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The pathological sequelae that arise from disruption of ER homeostasis are not well defined. The ER is an organelle that is responsible for secretory protein biosynthesis and the quality control of protein folding. The ER triggers an unfolded protein response (UPR) when misfolded proteins accumulate, and while the UPR acts to restore protein folding and ER homeostasis, this response can work as a switch to determine the death or survival of cells. The treatment of cancer with agents that target the UPR has shown promising outcomes. The UPR has wide crosstalk with other signaling pathways. Multi-targeted cancer therapies which target the intersections within signaling networks have shown synergistic tumoricidal effects. In the present review, the basic cellular and signaling pathways of the ER and UPR are introduced; then the crosstalk between the ER and other signaling pathways is summarized; and ultimately, the evidence that the UPR is a potential target for cancer therapy is discussed. Regulation of the UPR downstream signaling is a common therapeutic target for different tumor types. Tumoricidal effects achieved from modulating the UPR downstream signaling could be enhanced by phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Largely untapped by Western medicine for cancer therapies are Chinese herbal medicines. This review explores and discusses the value of some Chinese herbal extracts as PDE5 inhibitors.

Abstract
For many genomic loci, there are more than one potential cleavage and polyadenylation site, resulting in the generation of multiple distinct transcripts. When the proximal polyadenylation site is present within the coding region of the transcript, alternative polyadenylation can result in proteins with distinct amino acid sequences and potentially distinct functions. In most cases, the different possible polyadenylation sites are all present within the 3' untranslated regions (UTRs), and the amino acid sequence of the encoded proteins are not affected by polyadenylation site selection. In individual instances, the selection of the proximal versus distal polyadenylation site in the 3'UTR can dramatically affect transcript stability and translatability. In some instances, UTR alternative polyadenylation generates RNA isoforms that have distinct subcellular localization patterns, and that can regulate the location of the encoded protein in an RNA-guided manner. In a recent paper, the laboratory of Christine Mayr demonstrated that alternative polyadenylation of the transmembrane protein CD47 results in transcripts with the same localization pattern, but the encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum when it is encoded by the transcript generated by using the proximal polyadenylation site in 3'UTR, and the identical protein localizes to the plasma membrane when the transcript is encoded by the distal polyadenylation site, also in the 3' UTR. Unlike previous studies, the mechanism of localization does not rely on differential trafficking of the mRNA and is instead, based on RNA-mediated recruitment of proteins to the cytoplasmic side of CD47 that support its plasma membrane localization. Other transmembrane proteins were discovered to be regulated similarly. The results demonstrate that the choice of polyadenylation site can affect protein localization and function, even when the sequence of the protein is unaffected. Further, the transcript encoding a protein can serve as a scaffold to recruit additional proteins that affect the protein's fate.

Abstract
Summary
Macroautophagy is a bulk degradation process characterised by the formation of double-membrane vesicles, called autophagosomes, which deliver cytoplasmic substrates for degradation in the lysosome. It has become increasingly clear that autophagy intersects with multiple steps of the endocytic and exocytic pathways, sharing many molecular players. A number of Rab and Arf GTPases that are involved in the regulation of the secretory and the endocytic membrane trafficking pathways, have been shown to play key roles in autophagy, adding a new level of complexity to its regulation. Studying the regulation of autophagy by small GTPases that are known to be involved in membrane trafficking is becoming a scientific hotspot and may provide answers to various crucial questions currently debated in the autophagy field, such as the origins of the autophagosomal membrane. Thus, this Commentary highlights the recent advances on the regulation of autophagy by membrane-trafficking small GTPases (Rab, Arf and RalB GTPases) and discusses their putative roles in the regulation of autophagosome formation, autophagosome-dependent exocytosis and autophagosome-lysosome fusion.

Abstract
As mammalian cells prepare for mitosis, the Golgi ribbon is first unlinked into its constituent stacks and then transformed into spindle-associated, pleiomorphic membrane clusters in a process that remains enigmatic. Also, it remains unclear whether Golgi inheritance involves the incorporation of Golgi enzymes into a pool of coat protein I (COPI) vesicles, or their COPI-independent transfer to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Based on the observation that the intermediate compartment (IC) at the ER-Golgi boundary is connected to the centrosome, we examined its mitotic fate and possible role in Golgi breakdown. The use of multiple imaging techniques and markers revealed that the IC elements persist during the M phase, maintain their compositional and structural properties and remain associated with the mitotic spindle, forming circular arrays at the spindle poles. At G2/M transition, the movement of the pericentrosomal domain of the IC (pcIC) to the cell centre and its expansion coincide with the unlinking of the Golgi ribbon. At prophase, coupled to centrosome separation, the pcIC divides together with recycling endosomes, providing novel landmarks for mitotic entry. We provide evidence that the permanent IC elements function as way stations during the COPI-dependent dispersal of Golgi components at prometa- and metaphase, indicating that they correspond to the previously described Golgi clusters. In addition, they continue to communicate with the vesicular 'Golgi haze' and thus are likely to provide templates for Golgi reassembly. These results implicate the IC in mitotic Golgi inheritance, resulting in a model that integrates key features of the two previously proposed pathways.

Abstract
Despite more than six decades of successful Golgi research, the fundamental question as to how biosynthetic material is transported through the secretory pathway remains unanswered. New technologies such as live cell imaging and correlative microscopy have highlighted the plastic nature of the Golgi, one that is sensitive to perturbation yet highly efficient in regaining both structure and function. Single molecule-microscopy and super resolution-microscopy further adds to this picture. Various models for protein transport have been put forward, each with its own merits and pitfalls but we are far from resolving whether one is more correct than the other. As such, our laboratory considers multiple mechanisms of Golgi transport until proven otherwise. This includes the two classical modes of transport, vesicular transport and cisternal progression/maturation as well as more recent models such as tubular inter- and intra-cisternal connections (long lasting or transient) and inter-Golgi stack transport. In this article, we focus on an emerging inductive technology, mass spectrometry-based proteomics that has already enabled insight into the relative composition of compartments and subcompartments of the secretory pathway including mechanistic aspects of protein transport. We note that proteomics, as with any other technology, is not a stand-alone technology but one that works best alongside complementary approaches.

Abstract
Cytotoxic lymphocyte-mediated apoptosis is dependent on the delivery of perforin to secretory granules and its ability to form calcium-dependent pores in the target cell after granule exocytosis. It is unclear how cytotoxic lymphocytes synthesize and store perforin without incurring damage or death. We discovered that the extreme C terminus of perforin was essential for rapid trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi compartment. Substitution of the C-terminal tryptophan residue resulted in retention of perforin in the ER followed by calcium-dependent toxic activity that eliminated host cells. We also found that N-linked glycosylation of perforin was critical for transport from the Golgi to secretory granules. Overall, an intact C terminus and N-linked glycosylation provide accurate and efficient export of perforin from the endoplasmic reticulum to the secretory granules and are critical for cytotoxic lymphocyte survival.

Abstract
Autophagy is an important cellular degradation pathway present in all eukaryotic cells. Via this pathway, portions of the cytoplasm and/or organelles are sequestered in double-membrane structures called autophagosomes. In spite of the significant advance achieved in autophagy, the long-standing question about the source of the autophagic membrane remains unsolved. We have investigated the role of the secretory pathway in autophagosome biogenesis. Sar1 and Rab1b are monomeric GTPases that control traffic from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi. We present evidence indicating that the activity of both proteins is required for autophagosome formation. Overexpression of dominant-negative mutants and the use of siRNAs impaired autophagosome generation as determined by LC3 puncta formation and light chain 3 (LC3)-II processing. In addition, our results indicate that the autophagic and secretory pathways intersect at a level preceding the brefeldin A blockage, suggesting that the transport from the cis/medial Golgi is not necessary for autophagosome biogenesis. Our present results highlight the role of transport from the ER in the initial events of the autophagic vacuole development.

Abstract
The intermediate compartment (IC) between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus appears to constitute an autonomous organelle composed of spatially and functionally distinct, but interconnected, vacuolar and tubular subdomains. In mammalian cells the IC network is stably anchored at the cell center, communicating directly with the endocytic pathway via a pericentrosomal membrane system (PCMS). This finding suggests that the secretory pathway divides at the level of the IC, which functions as a sorting station both in Golgi-dependent and -independent trafficking. The tubular subdomain of the IC is capable of expansion in accordance with its proposed biosynthetic functions such as cholesterol synthesis.

Abstract
Because the functional borders of the intermediate compartment (IC) are not well defined, the spatial map of the transport machineries operating between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus remains incomplete. Our previous studies showed that the IC consists of interconnected vacuolar and tubular parts with specific roles in pre-Golgi trafficking. Here, using live cell imaging, we demonstrate that the tubules containing the GTPase Rab1A create a long-lived membrane compartment around the centrosome. Separation of this pericentrosomal domain of the IC from the Golgi ribbon, due to centrosome motility, revealed that it contains a distinct pool of COPI coats and acts as a temperature-sensitive way station in post-ER trafficking. However, unlike the Golgi, the pericentrosomal IC resists the disassembly of COPI coats by brefeldin A, maintaining its juxtaposition with the endocytic recycling compartment, and operation as the focal point of a dynamic tubular network that extends to the cell periphery. These results provide novel insight into the compartmental organization of the secretory pathway and Golgi biogenesis. Moreover, they reveal a direct functional connection between the IC and the endosomal system, which evidently contributes to unconventional transport of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator to the cell surface.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a key organelle of the secretion pathway involved in the synthesis of both proteins and lipids destined for multiple sites within and without the cell. The ER functions to both co- and post-translationally modify newly synthesized proteins and lipids and sort them for housekeeping within the ER and for transport to their sites of function away from the ER. In addition, the ER is involved in the metabolism and degradation of specific xenobiotics and endogenous biosynthetic products. A variety of proteomics studies have been reported on different subcompartments of the ER providing an ER protein dictionary with new data being made available on many protein complexes of relevance to the biology of the ER including the ribosome, the translocon, coatomer proteins, cytoskeletal proteins, folding proteins, the antigen-processing machinery, signaling proteins and proteins involved in membrane traffic. This review examines proteomics and cytological data in support of the presence of specific molecular machines at specific sites or subcompartments of the ER.

Abstract
In higher eukaryotic cells pleiomorphic compartments composed of vacuoles, tubules and vesicles move from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the plasma membrane to the cell center, operating in early biosynthetic trafficking and endocytosis, respectively. Besides transporting cargo to the Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, a major task of these compartments is to promote extensive membrane recycling. The endocytic membrane system is traditionally divided into early (sorting) endosomes, late endosomes and the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC). Recent studies on the intermediate compartment (IC) between the ER and the Golgi apparatus suggest that it also consists of peripheral ("early") and centralized ("late") structures, as well as a third component, designated here as the biosynthetic recycling compartment (BRC). We propose that the ERC and the BRC exist as long-lived "mirror compartments" at the cell center that also share the ability to expand and become mobilized during cell activation. These considerations emphasize the functional symmetry of endomembrane compartments, which provides a basis for the membrane rearrangements taking place during cell division, polarization, and differentiation.

Abstract
Under artificial conditions Golgi enzymes have the capacity to rapidly accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These observations prompted the idea that Golgi enzymes constitutively recycle through the ER. We have tested this hypothesis under physiological conditions through use of a procedure that captures Golgi enzymes in the ER. In the presence of rapamycin, which induces a tight association between FKBP (FK506-binding protein) and FRAP (FKBP-rapamycin-associated protein), an FKBP-tagged Golgi enzyme can be trapped when it visits the ER by an ER-retained protein fused to FRAP. We find that although FKBP-ERGIC-53 of the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) rapidly cycles through the ER (30 min), FKBP-Golgi enzyme chimeras remain stably associated with Golgi membranes. We also demonstrate that Golgi dispersion upon nocodazole treatment mainly occurs through a mechanism that does not involve the recycling of Golgi membranes through the ER. Our findings suggest that the Golgi apparatus, as defined by its collection of resident enzymes, exists independent of the ER.

Abstract
The function of the pre-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC) and its relationship with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi remain only partially understood. Here, we report striking segregation of IC domains in polarized PC12 cells that develop neurite-like processes. Differentiation involves expansion of the IC and movement of Rab1-containing tubules to the growth cones of the neurites, whereas p58- and COPI-positive IC elements, like rough ER and Golgi, remain in the cell body. Exclusion of Rab1 effectors p115 and GM130 from the neurites further indicated that the centrifugal, Rab1-mediated pathway has functions that are not directly related to ER-to-Golgi trafficking. Disassembly of COPI coats did not affect this pathway but resulted in missorting of p58 to the neurites. Live cell imaging showed that green fluorescent protein (GFP)-Rab1A-containing IC elements move bidirectionally both within the neurites and cell bodies, interconnecting different ER exit sites and the cis-Golgi region. Moreover, in nonpolarized cells GFP-Rab1A-positive tubules moved centrifugally towards the cell cortex. Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase, the key enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis, colocalized with slowly sedimenting, Rab1-enriched membranes when the IC subdomains were separated by velocity sedimentation. These results reveal a novel pathway directly connecting the IC with the cell periphery and suggest that this Rab1-mediated pathway is linked to the dynamics of smooth ER.

Abstract
Classically, the secretory pathway has been studied using a combination of electron microscopic, biochemical and genetic approaches. In the last 20 years with the arrival of molecular biology and epitope tagging, fluorescence microscopy has become more important than previously. Moreover, with the common availability of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) and confocal microscopes in the last 10 years, live cell imaging has become a major experimental approach. This review highlights the impact of the recent introduction of single-cell quantitative time-lapse imaging and photobleach techniques on the study of the secretory pathway, and the potential impact of those optical techniques which may play a significant future role in the study of the Golgi apparatus and the secretory pathway. Particular attention is paid to techniques (Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer, Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy) which can monitor protein-protein interactions in living cells.

Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinases/extracellular signal regulated kinases (MAPKs/ERKs) are typically thought to be soluble cytoplasmic enzymes that translocate to the nucleus subsequent to their phosphorylation by their activating kinases or mitogen-activated protein/extracellular signal regulated kinase kinase. We report here the first example of nuclear translocation of a MAPK that occurs via temporally regulated exit from a membranous organelle. Confocal microscopy examining the subcellular localization of ERK3 in several cell lines indicated that this enzyme was targeted to the Golgi/endoplasmic reticulum Golgi intermediate compartment. Deletion analysis of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-ERK3 uncovered a nuclear form that was carboxy-terminally truncated and established a Golgi targeting motif at the carboxy terminus. Immunoblot analysis of cells treated with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 further revealed two cleavage products, suggesting that in vivo, carboxy-terminal cleavage of the full-length protein controls its subcellular localization. In support of this hypothesis, we found that deletion of a small region rich in acidic residues within the carboxy terminus eliminated both the cleavage and nuclear translocation of GFP-ERK3. Finally, cell cycle synchronization studies revealed that the subcellular localization of ERK3 is temporally regulated. These data suggest a novel mechanism for the localization of an MAPK family member, ERK3, in which cell cycle-regulated, site-specific proteolysis generates the nuclear form of the protein.

Abstract
A missense mutation of the insulin 2 gene (Cys96Tyr) in Akita mice disrupting one of the two interchain disulfide bonds results in intracellular accumulation of misfolded proinsulin. We analyzed the secretory pathway of pancreatic beta cells by electron microscopy and morphometry and identified sites of proinsulin accumulation by quantitative immunogold electron microscopy in this protein-folding disease. In Akita mice beta cells, the volume density of dilated endoplasmic reticulum subdomains was increased by 2.9-fold, resulting in a 1.7-fold increased volume density of the entire rough endoplasmic reticulum. The volume density of pre-Golgi intermediates was increased by 4.9-fold, and that of the Golgi apparatus was increase by 3.4-fold. The relative labeling intensity for proinsulin was 2.1-fold higher in dilated endoplasmic reticulum subdomains and 2.9-fold higher in pre-Golgi intermediates as compared with narrow endoplasmic reticulum, resulting in a significantly different distribution pattern between Akita and control mice beta cells (Chi2= 29.97, P<0.001). The numerical density of insulin secretory granules was equal in Akita and control mice beta cells. However, their volume density and average volume were reduced to 20% and their average diameter to 58% in Akita mice. Together, these data demonstrate that misfolded proinsulin accumulates mainly in pre-Golgi intermediates and to a lesser extent in dilated endoplasmic reticulum subdomains, providing evidence for the importance of pre-Golgi intermediates in a protein folding disease.

Abstract
The secretory and endocytic pathways of eukaryotic organelles consist of multiple compartments, each with a unique set of proteins and lipids. Specific transport mechanisms are required to direct molecules to defined locations and to ensure that the identity, and hence function, of individual compartments are maintained. The localisation of proteins to specific membranes is complex and involves multiple interactions. The recent dramatic advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms of membrane transport has been due to the application of a multi-disciplinary approach, integrating membrane biology, genetics, imaging, protein and lipid biochemistry and structural biology. The aim of this review is to summarise the general principles of protein sorting in the secretory and endocytic pathways and to highlight the dynamic nature of these processes. The molecular mechanisms involved in this transport along the secretory and endocytic pathways are discussed along with the signals responsible for targeting proteins to different intracellular locations.

Abstract
The budding yeast Pichia pastoris contains ordered Golgi stacks next to discrete transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER) sites, making this organism ideal for structure-function studies of the secretory pathway. Here, we have used P. pastoris to test various models for Golgi trafficking. The experimental approach was to analyze P. pastoris tER-Golgi units by using cryofixed and freeze-substituted cells for electron microscope tomography, immunoelectron microscopy, and serial thin section analysis of entire cells. We find that tER sites and the adjacent Golgi stacks are enclosed in a ribosome-excluding "matrix." Each stack contains three to four cisternae, which can be classified as cis, medial, trans, or trans-Golgi network (TGN). No membrane continuities between compartments were detected. This work provides three major new insights. First, two types of transport vesicles accumulate at the tER-Golgi interface. Morphological analysis indicates that the center of the tER-Golgi interface contains COPII vesicles, whereas the periphery contains COPI vesicles. Second, fenestrae are absent from cis cisternae, but are present in medial through TGN cisternae. The number and distribution of the fenestrae suggest that they form at the edges of the medial cisternae and then migrate inward. Third, intact TGN cisternae apparently peel off from the Golgi stacks and persist for some time in the cytosol, and these "free-floating" TGN cisternae produce clathrin-coated vesicles. These observations are most readily explained by assuming that Golgi cisternae form at the cis face of the stack, progressively mature, and ultimately dissociate from the trans face of the stack.

Abstract
Quality control in the secretory pathway limits forward transport of newly synthesized cargo proteins to those that have acquired their fully folded conformation. To determine which organelles participate in this conformation-dependent sorting process, we analyzed the trafficking of the temperature-sensitive, thermo-reversible folding mutant of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (tsO45 G protein) in VERO cells. Using temperature blocks, the G protein could be localized to the ER (39.5 degrees C), to the vesiculo-tubular clusters (VTCs, 15 degrees C), and to the trans-Golgi network (TGN, 20 degrees C). To localize the G protein specifically to ER exit sites, we incubated cells at 10 degrees C. The exit sites contained Sec13p, a COPII component, and were devoid of calnexin and other ER chaperones. We found that if the G protein in the exit sites was misfolded by a temperature shift from 10 degrees C to 39.5 degrees C, it failed to enter the VTCs. Instead, it was returned to the reticular ER where it associated with calnexin. However, if the G protein was in the VTCs or beyond, its folding status no longer affected further transport. The observations indicate that quality control took place in the ER and in the ER transitional elements, but not in the VTCs or the Golgi complex. The results provide a way to discriminate biochemically between exit sites and VTCs, two related structures that are difficult to distinguish from each other.

Abstract
We have studied the localization of functional components of cellular Ca2+ transport and storage and the effects of thapsigargin (TG), a specific inhibitor of the sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA), with respect to the p58-containing pre-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC). The depletion of Ca2+ stores in normal rat kidney (NRK) cells by TG abolished the retention of the KDEL-containing, Ca2+-binding, luminal ER chaperones GRP94/endoplasmin and GRP78/BiP, and resulted in the appearance of the proteins in the culture medium before inducing their synthesis. Immunolocalization of GRP94 in TG-treated cells showed that the protein was transported to the Golgi complex and, in parallel, the KDEL receptor was redistributed from the Golgi to p58-positive IC structures, but was not transported further to the ER. Similarly, p58 that normally cycles between the ER, IC, and cis-Golgi, was largely depleted from the cell periphery and arrested in large-sized IC elements and numerous vesicles or buds in the Golgi region, showing that TG selectively blocks its recycling from the IC back to the ER. Importantly, cell fractionation analyses and confocal fluorescence microscopy provided evidence that the IC elements in unperturbed cells contain SERCA and a considerable pool of GRP94. Thus, the observed effects of TG on protein retention and recycling can be explained by a change in the luminal Ca2+ concentration of the IC. Moreover, the compositional properties of the IC elements suggest that they participate in intracellular Ca2+ storage.

Abstract
Vaccinia virus (VV) has a complex morphogenetic pathway whose first steps are poorly characterized. We have studied the early phase of VV assembly, when viral factories and spherical immature viruses (IVs) form in the cytoplasm of the infected cell. After freeze-substitution numerous cellular elements are detected around assembling viruses: membranes, ribosomes, microtubules, filaments, and unidentified structures. A double membrane is clearly resolved in the VV envelope for the first time, and freeze fracture reveals groups of tubules interacting laterally on the surface of the viroplasm foci. These data strongly support the hypothesis of a cellular tubulovesicular compartment, related to the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC), as the origin of the first VV envelope. Moreover, the cytoskeletal vimentin intermediate filaments are found around viral factories and inside the viroplasm foci, where vimentin and the VV core protein p39 colocalize in the areas where crescents protrude. Confocal microscopy showed that ERGIC elements and vimentin filaments concentrate in the viral factories. We propose that modified cellular ERGIC membranes and vimentin intermediate filaments act coordinately in the construction of viral factories and the first VV form through a unique mechanism of viral morphogenesis from cellular elements.

Abstract
The gap junctional intercellular communication-deficient mouse skin papilloma cell line P3/22 expresses Cx43 but not E-cadherin. The E-cadherin gene-transfected cells (P3E1) communicate in a calcium-dependent manner and they were used to study how E-cadherin restores the function of connexins. At low calcium, Cx43 molecules remain in the cytoplasm of P3E1 cells and appear at cell-cell contact areas only in high-calcium medium. While Cx43 is unphosphorylated in P3E1 cells in low-calcium medium, two phosphorylated bands appeared at high calcium. However, when Cx26, which has no C-terminal tail that can undergo phosphorylation, was expressed in P3E1 cells, this connexin also moved to the plasma membrane after the calcium shift and partly colocalized with Cx43, suggesting that C-terminal phosphorylation is not essential for E-cadherin-mediated intracellular transport of connexins. In low calcium, both Cx26 and Cx43 remained and colocalized in the endoplasmic reticulum. As early as 30 min after the shift to high-calcium medium, both Cx43 and Cx26 began to accumulate in the Golgi apparatus. Intracellular movement of connexins to the cytoplasmic membrane at high calcium was effectively blocked by cytochalasin D and brefeldin A. These results suggest that E-cadherin junction formation at high calcium leads to formation of actin cables, which directly or indirectly transport connexins from the cytoplasm to the cell-cell contact membranes via the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Trimming of N-linked oligosaccharides by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) glucosidase II is implicated in quality control of protein folding. An alternate glucosidase II-independent deglucosylation pathway exists, in which endo-alpha-mannosidase cleaves internally the glucose-substituted mannose residue of oligosaccharides. By immunogold labeling, we detected most endomannosidase in cis/medial Golgi cisternae (83.8% of immunogold labeling) and less in the intermediate compartment (15.1%), but none in the trans-Golgi apparatus and ER, including its transitional elements. This dual localization became more pronounced under 15 degrees C conditions indicative of two endomannosidase locations. Under experimental conditions when the intermediate compartment marker p58 was retained in peripheral sites, endomannosidase was redistributed to the Golgi apparatus. Double immunogold labeling established a mutually exclusive distribution of endomannosidase and glucosidase II, whereas calreticulin was observed in endomannosidase-reactive sites (17.3% in intermediate compartment, 5.7% in Golgi apparatus) in addition to the ER (77%). Our results demonstrate that glucose trimming of N-linked oligosaccharides is not limited to the ER and that protein deglucosylation by endomannosidase in the Golgi apparatus and intermediate compartment additionally ensures that processing to mature oligosaccharides can continue. Thus, endomannosidase localization suggests that a quality control of N-glycosylation exists in the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
We have studied the structural and functional properties of the pre-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC) in normal rat kidney cells using analytical cell fractionation with p58 as the principal marker. The sedimentation profile (sediterm) of p58, obtained by analytical differential centrifugation, revealed in steady-state cells the presence of two main populations of IC elements whose average sedimentation coefficients, s(H)=1150+/-58S (‘heavy’) and s(L)=158+/-8S (‘light’), differed from the s-values obtained for elements of the rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum. High resolution analysis of these subpopulations in equilibrium density gradients further revealed that the large difference in their s-values was mainly due to particle size. The ‘light’ particle population contained the bulk of COPI and COPII coats, and redistribution of p58 to these particles was observed in transport-arrested cells, showing that the two types of elements are also compositionally distinct and have functional counterparts in intact cells. Using a specific antibody against the 16 kDa proteolipid subunit of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, an enrichment of the V(o)domain of the ATPase was observed in the p58-positive IC elements. Interestingly, these elements could contain both COPI and COPII coats and their density distribution was markedly affected by GTP(γ)S. Together with morphological observations, these results demonstrate that, in addition to clusters of small tubules and vesicles, the IC also consists of large-sized structures and corroborate the proposal that the IC elements contain an active vacuolar H(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
A typical vertebrate cell contains several hundred sites of transitional ER (tER). Presumably, tER sites generate elements of the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC), and ERGIC elements then generate Golgi cisternae. Therefore, characterizing the mechanisms that influence tER distribution may shed light on the dynamic behavior of the Golgi. We explored the properties of tER sites using Sec13 as a marker protein. Fluorescence microscopy confirmed that tER sites are long-lived ER subdomains. tER sites proliferate during interphase but lose Sec13 during mitosis. Unlike ERGIC elements, tER sites move very little. Nevertheless, when microtubules are depolymerized with nocodazole, tER sites redistribute rapidly to form clusters next to Golgi structures. Hence, tER sites have the unusual property of being immobile, yet dynamic. These findings can be explained by a model in which new tER sites are created by retrograde membrane traffic from the Golgi. We propose that the tER-Golgi system is organized by mutual feedback between these two compartments.

Abstract
Transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER) consists of confluent rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) domains. In a cell-free incubation system, low-density microsomes (1.17 g cc(-1)) isolated from rat liver homogenates reconstitute tER by Mg(2+)GTP- and Mg(2+)ATP-hydrolysis-dependent membrane fusion. The ATPases associated with different cellular activities protein p97 has been identified as the relevant ATPase. The ATP depletion by hexokinase or treatment with either N-ethylmaleimide or anti-p97 prevented assembly of the smooth ER domain of tER. High-salt washing of low-density microsomes inhibited assembly of the smooth ER domain of tER, whereas the readdition of purified p97 with associated p47 promoted reconstitution. The t-SNARE syntaxin 5 was observed within the smooth ER domain of tER, and antisyntaxin 5 abrogated formation of this same membrane compartment. Thus, p97 and syntaxin 5 regulate assembly of the smooth ER domain of tER and hence one of the earliest membrane differentiated components of the secretory pathway.

Abstract
When co-translationally inserted into endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes, newly synthesized proteins encounter the lumenal environment of the ER, which contains chaperone proteins that facilitate the folding reactions necessary for protein oligomerization, maturation and export from the ER. Here we show, using a temperature-sensitive variant of vesicular stomatitis virus G protein tagged with green fluorescent protein (VSVG-GFP), and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP), the dynamics of association of folded and misfolded VSVG complexes with ER chaperones. We also investigate the potential mechanisms underlying protein retention in the ER. Misfolded VSVG-GFP complexes at 40 degrees C are highly mobile in ER membranes and do not reside in post-ER compartments, indicating that they are not retained in the ER by immobilization or retrieval mechanisms. These complexes are immobilized in ATP-depleted or tunicamycin-treated cells, in which VSVG-chaperone interactions are no longer dynamic. These results provide insight into the mechanisms of protein retention in the ER and the dynamics of protein-folding complexes in native ER membranes.

Abstract
Down-regulated by mos (Drm)/Gremlin is a highly conserved protein whose properties and expression pattern suggest a role in early development, tissue-specific differentiation, and cell transformation. We have investigated the biosynthesis and processing of Drm expressed endogenously in rat fibroblasts or overexpressed following transient or stable transfection. Analysis of metabolically labeled cells revealed that Drm exists in secreted and cell-associated forms that exhibit similar mobilities in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Protein analysis indicated that Drm is present in two major species: a slow migrating glycosylated form and a nonglycosylated form. Both forms of Drm are able to undergo phosphorylation. Drm is released into the media within 30 min of synthesis and is detectable for up to 4-5 h, whereas the cell-associated form has a half-life of about 1 h. Confocal immunofluorescent microscopy indicates that Drm is present both on the external surface of expressing cells, as well as within the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi. Both glycosylated and nonglycosylated forms of Drm exhibit identical distributions and are able to antagonize bone morphogenetic protein signaling. Like the soluble form, the cell-associated forms are capable of binding (125)I-bone morphogenetic protein-4. These properties are consistent with a role for Drm in interfering with signaling and indicate that Drm may act at the cell surface during tissue development and transformation.

Abstract
Type II NaPi cotransporters mediate epithelial phosphate (P(i)) reabsorption. In mammals the type IIb protein is expressed in the small intestinal apical membrane and other epithelia; it is not expressed in the renal proximal tubule where we find the type IIa isoform. To look for molecular determinant(s) involved in apical expression of type IIb cotransporters, we have made deletion mutations within the C-terminal tails of mouse IIb (mIIb) and human IIb (hIIb) transporter proteins. The constructs were fused to the enhanced green fluorescent protein and transiently transfected into intestinal CaCo2-cells. Both mIIb and hIIb were located exclusively in the apical membrane of the cells. For mIIb, the removal of a cysteine cluster or the last three amino acids (TVF) had no effect on the location of the protein. However, truncation at the level of the conserved L691/689 prevented the apical membrane expression of both mIIb and hIIb, respectively, and the mutated proteins were located in endosomal and lysosomal structures. A similar expression pattern of the mIIb and hIIb constructs was found in renal proximal tubular opossum kidney cells. Our data suggest that L691/689 is involved in mechanisms leading to an apical expression of type IIb NaPi cotransporters.

Abstract
The ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) marker ERGIC-53 is a mannose-specific membrane lectin operating as a cargo receptor for the transport of glycoproteins from the ER to the ERGIC. Lack of functional ERGIC-53 leads to a selective defect in secretion of glycoproteins in cultured cells and to hemophilia in humans. Beyond its interest as a transport receptor, ERGIC-53 is an attractive probe for studying numerous aspects of protein trafficking in the secretory pathway, including traffic routes, mechanisms of anterograde and retrograde traffic, retention of proteins in the ER, and the function of the ERGIC. Understanding these fundamental processes of cell biology will be crucial for the elucidation and treatment of many inherited and acquired diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer's disease and viral infections.

Abstract
Green fluorescent protein chimerae acting as reporters for protein localization and trafficking within the secretory membrane system of living cells have been used in a wide variety of applications, including time-lapse imaging, double-labeling, energy transfer, quantitation, and photobleaching experiments. Results from this work are clarifying the steps involved in the formation, translocation, and fusion of transport intermediates; the organization and biogenesis of organelles; and the mechanisms of protein retention, sorting, and recycling in the secretory pathway. In so doing, they are broadening our thinking about the temporal and spatial relationships among secretory organelles and the membrane trafficking pathways that operate between them.

Abstract
During the life cycle of the transmissible gastroenteritis coronavirus (TGEV), two types of virus-related particles are detected in infected swine testis cells: large annular viruses and small dense viruses. We have studied the relationships between these two types of particles. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that they are closely related, since both large and small particles reacted equally with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies specific for TGEV proteins. Monensin, a drug that selectively affects the Golgi complex, caused an accumulation of large annular viral particles in perinuclear elements of the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. A partial reversion of the monensin blockade was obtained in both the absence and presence of cycloheximide, a drug that prevented the formation of new viral particles. After removal of monensin, the Golgi complex recovered its perinuclear location, and a decrease in the number of perinuclear large viral particles was observed. The release of small dense viral particles into secretory vesicles and the extracellular medium was also observed, as was a partial recovery of infectivity in culture supernatants. Small viral particles started to be seen between the third and the fourth Golgi cisternae of normally infected cells. All of these data strongly indicate that the large annular particles are the immature precursors of the small dense viruses, which are the infectious TGEV virions. The immature viral particles need to reach a particular location at the trans side of the Golgi stack to complete their morphological maturation.

Abstract
A two-step reconstitution system for the generation of ER cargo exit sites from starting ER-derived low density microsomes (LDMs; 1.17 g/cc) is described. The first step is mediated by the hydrolysis of Mg(2+)ATP and Mg(2+)GTP, leading to the formation of a transitional ER (tER) with the soluble cargo albumin, transferrin, and the ER-to-Golgi recycling membrane proteins alpha(2)p24 and p58 (ERGIC-53, ER-Golgi intermediate compartment protein) enriched therein. Upon further incubation (step two) with cytosol and mixed nucleotides, interconnecting smooth ER tubules within tER transforms into vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs). The cytosolic domain of alpha(2)p24 and cytosolic COPI coatomer affect VTC formation. This is deduced from the effect of antibodies to the COOH-terminal tail of alpha(2)p24, but not of antibodies to the COOH-terminal tail of calnexin on this reconstitution, as well as the demonstrated recruitment of COPI coatomer to VTCs, its augmentation by GTPgammaS, inhibition by Brefeldin A (BFA), or depletion of beta-COP from cytosol. Therefore, the p24 family member, alpha(2)p24, and its cytosolic coat ligand, COPI coatomer, play a role in the de novo formation of VTCs and the generation of ER cargo exit sites.

Abstract
The Golgi complex of mammalian cells is composed of cisternal stacks that function in processing and sorting of membrane and luminal proteins during transport from the site of synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum to lysosomes, secretory vacuoles, and the cell surface. Even though exceptions are found, the Golgi stacks are usually arranged as an interconnected network in the region around the centrosome, the major organizing center for cytoplasmic microtubules. A close relation thus exists between Golgi elements and microtubules (especially the stable subpopulation enriched in detyrosinated and acetylated tubulin). After drug-induced disruption of microtubules, the Golgi stacks are disconnected from each other, partly broken up, dispersed in the cytoplasm, and redistributed to endoplasmic reticulum exit sites. Despite this, intracellular protein traffic is only moderately disturbed. Following removal of the drugs, scattered Golgi elements move along reassembling microtubules back to the centrosomal region and reunite into a continuous system. The microtubule-dependent motor proteins cytoplasmic dynein and kinesin bind to Golgi membranes and have been implicated in vesicular transport to and from the Golgi complex. Microinjection of dynein heavy chain antibodies causes dispersal of the Golgi complex, and the Golgi complex of cells lacking cytoplasmic dynein is likewise spread throughout the cytoplasm. In a similar manner, kinesin antibodies have been found to inhibit Golgi-to-endoplasmic reticulum transport in brefeldin A-treated cells and scattering of Golgi elements along remaining microtubules in cells exposed to a low concentration of nocodazole. The molecular mechanisms in the interaction between microtubules and membranes are, however, incompletely understood. During mitosis, the Golgi complex is extensively reorganized in order to ensure an equal partitioning of this single-copy organelle between the daughter cells. Mitosis-promoting factor, a complex of cdc2 kinase and cyclin B, is a key regulator of this and other events in the induction of cell division. Cytoplasmic microtubules depolymerize in prophase and as a result thereof, the Golgi stacks become smaller, disengage from each other, and take up a perinuclear distribution. The mitotic spindle is thereafter put together, aligns the chromosomes in the metaphase plate, and eventually pulls the sister chromatids apart in anaphase. In parallel, the Golgi stacks are broken down into clusters of vesicles and tubules and movement of protein along the exocytic and endocytic pathways is inhibited. Using a cell-free system, it has been established that the fragmentation of the Golgi stacks is due to a continued budding of transport vesicles and a concomitant inhibition of the fusion of the vesicles with their target membranes. In telophase and after cytokinesis, a Golgi complex made up of interconnected cisternal stacks is recreated in each daughter cell and intracellular protein traffic is resumed. This restoration of a normal interphase morphology and function is dependent on reassembly of a radiating array of cytoplasmic microtubules along which vesicles can be carried and on reactivation of the machinery for membrane fusion.

Abstract
The effect of the vacuolar H+-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1 (Baf A1) on the localization of pre-Golgi intermediate compartment (IC) and Golgi marker proteins was used to study the role of acidification in the function of early secretory compartments. Baf A1 inhibited both brefeldin A- and nocodazole-induced retrograde transport of Golgi proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), whereas anterograde ER-to-Golgi transport remained largely unaffected. Furthermore, p58/ERGIC-53, which normally cycles between the ER, IC, and cis-Golgi, was arrested in pre-Golgi tubules and vacuoles, and the number of p58-positive approximately 80-nm Golgi (coatomer protein I) vesicles was reduced, suggesting that the drug inhibits the retrieval of the protein from post-ER compartments. In parallel, redistribution of beta-coatomer protein from the Golgi to peripheral pre-Golgi structures took place. The small GTPase rab1p was detected in short pre-Golgi tubules in control cells and was efficiently recruited to the tubules accumulating in the presence of Baf A1. In contrast, these tubules showed no enrichment of newly synthesized, anterogradely transported proteins, indicating that they participate in retrograde transport. These results suggest that the pre-Golgi structures contain an active H+-ATPase that regulates retrograde transport at the ER-Golgi boundary. Interestingly, although Baf A1 had distinct effects on peripheral pre-Golgi structures, only more central, p58-containing elements accumulated detectable amounts of 3-(2, 4-dinitroanilino)-3'-amino-N-methyldipropylamine (DAMP), a marker for acidic compartments, raising the possibility that the lumenal pH of the pre-Golgi structures gradually changes in parallel with their translocation to the Golgi region.

Abstract
To establish recycling routes in the early secretory pathway we have studied the recycling of the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) marker ERGIC-53 in HepG2 cells. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed progressive concentration of ERGIC-53 in the Golgi area at 15 degreesC. Upon rewarming to 37 degreesC ERGIC-53 redistributed into the cell periphery often via tubular processes that largely excluded anterograde transported albumin. Immunogold labeling of cells cultured at 37 degreesC revealed ERGIC-53 predominantly in characteristic beta-COP-positive tubulo-vesicular clusters both near the Golgi apparatus and in the cell periphery. Concentration of ERGIC-53 at 15 degreesC resulted from both accumulation of ERGIC-53 in the ERGIC and movement of ERGIC membranes closer to the Golgi apparatus. Upon rewarming to 37 degreesC the labeling of ERGIC-53 in the ERGIC rapidly returned to normal levels whereas ERGIC-53's labeling in the cis-Golgi was unchanged. Temperature manipulations had no effect on the average number of ERGIC-53 clusters. Density gradient centrifugation indicated that the surplus ERGIC-53 accumulating in the ERGIC at 15 degreesC was rapidly transported to the ER upon rewarming. These results suggest that the ERGIC is a dynamic membrane system composed of a constant average number of clusters and that the major recycling pathway of ERGIC-53 bypasses the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Synaptosomal-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) is a palmitoylated membrane protein essential for neurotransmitter release from synaptic terminals. We used neuronal cell lines to study the biosynthesis and posttranslational processing of SNAP-25 to investigate how palmitoylation contributes to the subcellular localization of the protein. SNAP-25 was synthesized as a soluble protein that underwent palmitoylation approximately 20 min after synthesis. Palmitoylation of the protein coincided with its stable membrane association. Treatment of cells with brefeldin A or other disrupters of transport inhibited palmitoylation of newly synthesized SNAP-25 and abolished membrane association. These results demonstrate that the processing of SNAP-25 and its targeting to the plasma membrane depend on an intact transport mechanism along the exocytic pathway. The kinetics of SNAP-25 palmitoylation and membrane association and the sensitivity of these parameters to brefeldin A suggest a novel trafficking pathway for targeting proteins to the plasma membrane. In vitro, SNAP-25 stably associated with membranes was not released from the membrane after chemical deacylation. We propose that palmitoylation of SNAP-25 is required for initial membrane targeting of the protein but that other interactions can maintain membrane association in the absence of fatty acylation.

Abstract
During mitosis, not only the genetic material stored in the nucleus but also the constituents of the cytoplasm should be equally partitioned between the daughter cells. For this sake, the dividing cell goes through an extensive structural reorganization and transport along the endocytic and exocytic pathways is temporarily arrested. Early in prophase, the radiating array of cytoplasmic microtubules disassembles and the membrane systems of the secretory apparatus start to split up. In metaphase, the nuclear envelope fragments and the condensing chromosomes associate with the forming mitotic spindle. The cisternal and tubular elements of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex break down into small vesicles, presumably as the result of an imbalance between vesicle budding and fusion. In anaphase, the two sets of chromosomes are pulled apart and a cleavage furrow forms halfway between the spindle poles. Since most organelles occur in multiple and widely dispersed copies at this stage, they will be evenly distributed between the daughter cells. During telophase and cytokinesis, the preceding fragmentation process is reversed. A nuclear envelope reappears around the chromosomes and cytoplasmic microtubules reassemble. The endoplasmic reticulum is rebuilt as a continuous system of flattened cisternae and tubules. Stacks of Golgi cisternae arise from small vesicles and are rearranged in an interconnected network. In parallel, the biosynthetic functions of the cell are normalized and intracellular membrane traffic is resumed.

Abstract
Sec7 protein (Sec7p) is required for membrane traffic in the yeast secretory pathway. Because Sec7p regulates more than one stage in the pathway, it has been difficult to assign the most proximal requirement for Sec7p action. We have engineered a novel mutant whose Sec7p levels are regulated by growth conditions and by selective protein destabilization according to the N-end rule. Sec7p depletion causes cell growth arrest and accumulation of transport proteins with post-translational modifications indicative of Sec7p dependence for ER-to-Golgi traffic, in addition to the already characterized Golgi requirements. Immuno-EM of sec7 revealed exaggeration of ER and Golgi membranes with protein accumulation in these exaggerated structures, suggesting that these regions may represent staging areas for cargo sorting and vesicle assembly.

Abstract
Association of the Golgi complex with cytoskeletal elements, in particular microtubules, is required for maintenance of the Golgi's characteristic spatial location within cells and for efficient delivery of proteins and lipids to diverse cellular sites. Recent work has suggested the mechanisms underlying this association involve components, such as ankyrin and spectrin, that facilitate Golgi membrane association with motor proteins, including cytoplasmic dynein, kinesin and myosin. Understanding how these associations are regulated and what roles they play in Golgi trafficking and dynamics is fundamental for insight into the spatial and functional integration of secretory membrane traffic.
