[PMID: 38964379 DOI: 10.1080/15548627.2024.2367907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Macroautophagic/autophagic and endocytic pathways play essential roles in maintaining homeostasis at different levels. It remains poorly understood how both pathways are coordinated and fine-tuned for proper lysosomal degradation of diverse cargoes. We and others recently identified a Golgi-resident RAB GTPase, RAB2A, as a positive regulator that controls both autophagic and endocytic pathways. In the current study, we report that TBC1D4 (TBC1 domain family member 4), a TBC domain-containing protein that plays essential roles in glucose homeostasis, suppresses RAB2A-mediated autophagic and endocytic pathways. TBC1D4 bound to RAB2A through its N-terminal PTB2 domain, which impaired RAB2A-mediated autophagy at the early stage by preventing ULK1 complex activation. During the late stage of autophagy, TBC1D4 impeded the association of RUBCNL/PACER and RAB2A with STX17 on autophagosomes by direct interaction with RUBCNL via its N-terminal PTB1 domain. Disruption of the autophagosomal trimeric complex containing RAB2A, RUBCNL and STX17 resulted in defective HOPS recruitment and eventually abortive autophagosome-lysosome fusion. Furthermore, TBC1D4 inhibited RAB2A-mediated endocytic degradation independent of RUBCNL. Therefore, TBC1D4 and RAB2A form a dual molecular switch to modulate autophagic and endocytic pathways. Importantly, hepatocyte- or adipocyte-specific tbc1d4 knockout in mice led to elevated autophagic flux and endocytic degradation and tissue damage. Together, this work establishes TBC1D4 as a critical molecular brake in autophagic and endocytic pathways, providing further mechanistic insights into how these pathways are intertwined both in vitro and in vivo.Abbreviations: ACTB: actin beta; ATG9: autophagy related 9; ATG14: autophagy related 14; ATG16L1: autophagy related 16 like 1; CLEM: correlative light electron microscopy; Ctrl: control; DMSO: dimethyl sulfoxide; EGF: epidermal growth factor; EGFR: epidermal growth factor receptor; FL: full length; GAP: GTPase-activating protein; GFP: green fluorescent protein; HOPS: homotypic fusion and protein sorting; IP: immunoprecipitation; KD: knockdown; KO: knockout; LAMP1: lysosomal associated membrane protein 1; MAP1LC3B/LC3B: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; OE: overexpression; PG: phagophore; PtdIns3K: class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; SLC2A4/GLUT4: solute carrier family 2 member 4; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1; RUBCNL/PACER: rubicon like autophagy enhancer; STX17: syntaxin 17; TAP: tandem affinity purification; TBA: total bile acid; TBC1D4: TBC1 domain family member 4; TUBA1B: tubulin alpha 1b; ULK1: unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1; VPS39: VPS39 subunit of HOPS complex; WB: western blot; WT: wild type.

Abstract
The Golgi complex is a highly dynamic organelle that regulates various cellular activities and yet maintains a distinct structure. Multiple proteins participate in Golgi structure/organization including the small GTPase Rab2. Rab2 is found on the cis/medial Golgi compartments and the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Interestingly, Rab2 gene amplification occurs in a wide range of human cancers and Golgi morphological alterations are associated with cellular transformation. To learn how Rab2 'gain of function' influences the structure/activity of membrane compartments in the early secretory pathway that may contribute to oncogenesis, NRK cells were transfected with Rab2B cDNA. We found that Rab2B overexpression had a dramatic effect on the morphology of pre- and early Golgi compartments that resulted in a decreased transport rate of VSV-G in the early secretory pathway. We monitored the cells for the autophagic marker protein LC3 based on the findings that depressed membrane trafficking affects homeostasis. Morphological and biochemical studies confirmed that Rab2 ectopic expression stimulated LC3-lipidation on Rab2-containing membranes that was dependent on GAPDH and utilized a non-canonical LC3-conjugation mechanism that is nondegradative. Golgi structural alterations are associated with changes in Golgi-associated signalling pathways. Indeed, Rab2 overexpressing cells had elevated Src activity. We propose that increased Rab2 expression facilitates cis Golgi structural changes that are maintained and tolerated by the cell due to LC3 tagging, and subsequent membrane remodeling triggers Golgi associated signaling pathways that may contribute to oncogenesis.

Abstract
The coat protein complex I (COPI) is an essential, highly conserved pathway that traffics proteins and lipids between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi. Many aspects of the COPI machinery are well understood at the structural, biochemical and genetic levels. However, we know much less about how cells dynamically modulate COPI trafficking in response to changing signals, metabolic state, stress or other stimuli. Recently, post-translational modifications (PTMs) have emerged as one common theme in the regulation of the COPI pathway. Here, we review a range of modifications and mechanisms that govern COPI activity in interphase cells and suggest potential future directions to address as-yet unanswered questions.

Abstract
This study reports an unexpected role of late endosome–lysosome fusion in early endosome-to-Golgi trafficking of Shiga toxins and identifies tamoxifen to be a potent inhibitor of Shiga toxicosis. Shiga toxin 1 (STx1) and 2 (STx2), produced by Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli, cause lethal untreatable disease. The toxins invade cells via retrograde trafficking. Direct early endosome-to-Golgi transport allows the toxins to evade degradative late endosomes. Blocking toxin trafficking, particularly at the early endosome-to-Golgi step, is appealing, but transport mechanisms of the more disease-relevant STx2 are unclear. Using data from a genome-wide siRNA screen, we discovered that disruption of the fusion of late endosomes, but not autophagosomes, with lysosomes blocked the early endosome-to-Golgi transport of STx2. A subsequent screen of clinically approved lysosome-targeting drugs identified tamoxifen (TAM) to be a potent inhibitor of the trafficking and toxicity of STx1 and STx2 in cells. The protective effect was independent of estrogen receptors but dependent on the weak base property of TAM, which allowed TAM to increase endolysosomal pH and alter endosomal dynamics. Importantly, TAM treatment enhanced survival of mice injected with a lethal dose of STx1 or STx2. Thus, it may be possible to repurpose TAM for treating Shiga toxin–producing E. coli infections.

Multilevel Differential Control of Hormone Gene Expression Programs by hnRNP L and LL in Pituitary Cells. Mol Cell Biol 2018; 38:MCB.00651-17.

Abstract
The pituitary-derived somatolactotrophe GH3 cells secrete both growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL). We have found that the hnRNP L and L-like (LL) paralogs differentially regulate alternative splicing of genes in these cells. Here, we show that hnRNP L is essential for PRL only, but LL is essential for both PRL and GH production. Transcriptome-wide RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis indicates that they differentially control groups of hormone or hormone-related genes involved in hormone production/regulation at total transcript and alternative exon levels. Interestingly, hnRNP L also specifically binds and prevents the aberrant usage of a nonconserved CA-rich intron piece of Prl pre-mRNA transcripts, and many others involved in endocrine functions, to prevent mostly cryptic last exons and mRNA truncation. Essential for the full hnRNP L effect on specific exons is a proline-rich region that emerged during evolution in vertebrate hnRNP L only but not LL. Together, our data demonstrate that the hnRNP L and its paralog, LL, differentially control hormone gene expression programs at multiple levels, and hnRNP L in particular is critical for protecting the transcriptome from aberrant usage of intronic sequences. The multilevel differential control by hnRNPs likely tailors the transcriptome to help refine and safeguard the different gene expression programs for different hormones.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) undergoes numerous post-translational modifications, which impart new function and influence intracellular location. For example, atypical PKC ι/λ phosphorylates GAPDH that locates to vesicular tubular clusters and is required for retrograde membrane trafficking in the early secretory pathway. GAPDH is also required in the endocytic pathway; substitution of Pro234 to Ser (Pro234Ser) rendered CHO cells defective in endocytosis. To determine if GAPDH (Pro234Ser) could inhibit endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi trafficking, we introduced the recombinant mutant enzyme into several biochemical and morphological transport assays. The mutant protein efficiently blocked vesicular stomatitis virus-G protein transport. Because GAPDH binds to microtubules (MTs), we evaluated MT binding and MT intracellular distribution in the presence of the mutant. Although these properties were not changed relative to wild-type, GAPDH (Pro234Ser) altered Golgi complex morphology. We determined that the GAPDH point mutation disrupted association between the enzyme and the serine/threonine kinase Akt. Interestingly Rab1, which functions in anterograde-directed trafficking, stimulates GAPDH-Akt association with membranes in a quantitative binding assay. In contrast, Rab2 does not stimulate GAPDH-Akt membrane binding but instead recruits GAPDH-aPKC. We propose a mechanism whereby the association of GAPDH with Akt or with aPKC serves as a switch to discriminate between anterograde directed cargo and recycling cargo retrieved back to the ER, respectively.

Abstract
The Rab family of small GTPases play fundamental roles in the regulation of trafficking pathways between intracellular membranes in eukaryotic cells. In this short commentary we highlight a recent high-content screening study that investigates the roles of Rab proteins in retrograde trafficking from the Golgi complex to the endoplasmic reticulum, and we discuss how the findings of this work and other literature might influence our thoughts on how the architecture of the Golgi complex is regulated.

A Kinome-Wide Small Interfering RNA Screen Identifies Proviral and Antiviral Host Factors in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Replication, Including Double-Stranded RNA-Activated Protein Kinase and Early Secretory Pathway Proteins. J Virol 2015; 89:8318-33. [PMID: 26041291 DOI: 10.1128/jvi.01029-15] [Citation(s) in RCA: 56] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2015] [Accepted: 05/22/2015] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
UNLABELLED To identify host factors relevant for severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV) replication, we performed a small interfering RNA (siRNA) library screen targeting the human kinome. Protein kinases are key regulators of many cellular functions, and the systematic knockdown of their expression should provide a broad perspective on factors and pathways promoting or antagonizing coronavirus replication. In addition to 40 proteins that promote SARS-CoV replication, our study identified 90 factors exhibiting an antiviral effect. Pathway analysis grouped subsets of these factors in specific cellular processes, including the innate immune response and the metabolism of complex lipids, which appear to play a role in SARS-CoV infection. Several factors were selected for in-depth validation in follow-up experiments. In cells depleted for the β2 subunit of the coatomer protein complex (COPB2), the strongest proviral hit, we observed reduced SARS-CoV protein expression and a >2-log reduction in virus yield. Knockdown of the COPB2-related proteins COPB1 and Golgi-specific brefeldin A-resistant guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (GBF1) also suggested that COPI-coated vesicles and/or the early secretory pathway are important for SARS-CoV replication. Depletion of the antiviral double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR) enhanced virus replication in the primary screen, and validation experiments confirmed increased SARS-CoV protein expression and virus production upon PKR depletion. In addition, cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) was identified as a novel antiviral host factor in SARS-CoV replication. The inventory of pro- and antiviral host factors and pathways described here substantiates and expands our understanding of SARS-CoV replication and may contribute to the identification of novel targets for antiviral therapy. IMPORTANCE Replication of all viruses, including SARS-CoV, depends on and is influenced by cellular pathways. Although substantial progress has been made in dissecting the coronavirus replicative cycle, our understanding of the host factors that stimulate (proviral factors) or restrict (antiviral factors) infection remains far from complete. To study the role of host proteins in SARS-CoV infection, we set out to systematically identify kinase-regulated processes that influence virus replication. Protein kinases are key regulators in signal transduction, controlling a wide variety of cellular processes, and many of them are targets of approved drugs and other compounds. Our screen identified a variety of hits and will form the basis for more detailed follow-up studies that should contribute to a better understanding of SARS-CoV replication and coronavirus-host interactions in general. The identified factors could be interesting targets for the development of host-directed antiviral therapy to treat infections with SARS-CoV or other pathogenic coronaviruses.

Abstract
Golgins are coiled-coil proteins that participate in membrane-tethering events at the Golgi complex. Golgin-mediated tethering is thought to be important for vesicular trafficking and Golgi organization. However, the degree to which individual golgins contribute to these processes is poorly defined, and it has been proposed that golgins act in a largely redundant manner. Previous studies on the golgin GMAP-210 (also known as TRIP11), which is mutated in the rare skeletal disorder achondrogenesis type 1A, have yielded conflicting results regarding its involvement in trafficking. Here, we re-investigated the trafficking role of GMAP-210, and found that it is indeed required for efficient trafficking in the secretory pathway. GMAP-210 acts at both the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) and Golgi complex during anterograde trafficking, and is also required for retrograde trafficking to the ER. Using co-depletion experiments, we also found that GMAP-210 acts in a partially redundant manner with the golgin GM130 to ensure efficient anterograde cargo delivery to the cis-Golgi. In summary, our results indicate a role for GMAP-210 in several trafficking steps at the ER–Golgi interface, some of which are partially redundant with another golgin, namely GM130 (also known as GOLGA2).

Abstract
PKCι is essential for the establishment of epithelial polarity and the normal assembly of tight junctions. We find that PKCι knockdown does not compromise the steady-state distribution of most tight junction proteins but results in increased transepithelial resistance (TER) and decreased paracellular permeability. Analysis of the levels of tight junction components demonstrates that claudin-2 protein levels are decreased. However, other tight junction proteins, such as claudin-1, ZO-1, and occludin, are unchanged. Incubation with an aPKC pseudosubstrate recapitulates the phenotype of PKCι knockdown, including increased TER and decreased levels of claudin-2. In addition, overexpression of PKCι results in increased claudin-2 levels. ELISA and coimmunoprecipitation show that the TGN/endosomal small GTPase Rab14 and PKCι interact directly. Immunolabeling shows that PKCι and Rab14 colocalize in both intracellular puncta and at the plasma membrane and that Rab14 expression is required for normal PKCι distribution in cysts in 3D culture. We showed previously that knockdown of Rab14 results in increased TER and decreased claudin-2. Our results suggest that Rab14 and aPKC interact to regulate trafficking of claudin-2 out of the lysosome-directed pathway.

Abstract
Rab GTPases belong to the large family of Ras proteins. They act as key regulators of membrane organization and intracellular trafficking. Functionally, they act as switches. In the active GTP-bound form they can bind to effector proteins to facilitate the delivery of transport vesicles. Upon stimulation, the GTP is hydrolyzed and the Rab proteins undergo conformational changes in their switch regions. This study focuses on Rab2 and Rab3 from Drosophila melanogaster. Whereas Rab2 is involved in vesicle transport between the Golgi and the endoplasmatic reticulum, Rab3 is a key player in exocytosis, and in the synapse it is involved in the assembly of the presynaptic active zone. Here, high-resolution crystal structures of Rab2 and Rab3 in complex with GMPPNP and Mg2+ are presented. In the structure of Rab3 a modified cysteine residue is observed with an enigmatic electron density attached to its thiol function.

Abstract
Atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) is the first recognized kinase oncogene. However, the specific contribution of aPKC to cancer progression is unclear. The pseudosubstrate domain of aPKC is different from the other PKC family members, and therefore a synthetic peptide corresponding to the aPKC pseudosubstrate (aPKC-PS) sequence, which specifically blocks aPKC kinase activity, is a valuable tool to assess the role of aPKC in various cellular processes. Here, we learned that HeLa cells incubated with membrane permeable aPKC-PS peptide displayed dilated heterogeneous vesicles labeled with peptide that were subsequently identified as macropinosomes. A quantitative membrane binding assay revealed that aPKC-PS peptide stimulated aPKC recruitment to membranes and activated Src. Similarly, aPKC overexpression in transfected HeLa cells activated Src and induced macropinosome formation. Src-aPKC interaction was essential; substitution of the proline residues in aPKC that associate with the Src-SH3 binding domain rendered the mutant kinase unable to induce macropinocytosis in transfected cells. We propose that aPKC overexpression is a contributing factor to cell transformation by interacting with and consequently promoting Src activation and constitutive macropinocytosis, which increases uptake of extracellular factors, required for altered cell growth and accelerated cell migration.

Abstract
Protein kinase inhibitors represent a major class of targeted therapeutics that has made a positive impact on treatment of cancer and other disease indications. Among the promising kinase targets for further therapeutic development are members of the Protein Kinase C (PKC) family. The PKCs are central components of many signaling pathways that regulate diverse cellular functions including proliferation, cell cycle, differentiation, survival, cell migration, and polarity. Genetic manipulation of individual PKC isozymes has demonstrated that they often fulfill distinct, nonredundant cellular functions. Participation of PKC members in different intracellular signaling pathways reflects responses to varying extracellular stimuli, intracellular localization, tissue distribution, phosphorylation status, and intermolecular interactions. PKC activity, localization, phosphorylation, and/or expression are often altered in human tumors, and PKC isozymes have been implicated in various aspects of transformation, including uncontrolled proliferation, migration, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, and resistance to apoptosis. Despite the strong relationship between PKC isozymes and cancer, to date only atypical PKCiota has been shown to function as a bona fide oncogene, and as such is a particularly attractive therapeutic target for cancer treatment. In this review, we discuss the role of PKCiota in transformation and describe mechanism-based approaches to therapeutically target oncogenic PKCiota signaling in cancer.

Abstract
The components that control trafficking between organelles of the secretory pathway as well as their architecture were uncovered to a reasonable extent in the past decades. However, only recently did we begin to explore the regulation of the secretory pathway by cellular signaling. In the current review, we focus on trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. We highlight recent advances that have been made toward a better understanding of how the secretory pathway is regulated by signaling and discuss how this knowledge is important to obtain an integrative view of secretion in the context of other homeostatic processes such as growth and proliferation.

Abstract
Whereas most of what we know today about the Ras-related small GTPases of the Rab family stems from observations made on Golgi complex, endosome and plasma membrane trafficking, a subset of Rabs localizes in part or predominantly to the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). Here, Rabs such as Rab1, Rab2, Rab6 and Rab33 can regulate the anterograde and retrograde trafficking of vesicles between the Golgi complex, the ERGIC (ER-Golgi intermediate compartment) and the ER itself. However, among the ER-associated Rabs, some Rabs appear to perform roles not directly related to trafficking: these Rabs (e.g. Rab32 or Rab24) could aid proteins of the atlastin and reticulon families in determining the extent and direction of ER tubulation. In so doing, these Rabs regulate not only ER contacts with other organelles such as mitochondria, but also the formation of autophagosomes.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to clarify the role of diacylglycerol kinase (DGK)γ in vascular endothelial cells. The mRNA and protein expression of DGKγ and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in rat aortic endothelial cells (RAECs) were investigated using RT-PCR, immunocytochemical, and immunoblot analyses. In RAECs, immunoreactivity of DGKγ was detected in the cytoplasm as a tubular or reticular structure. DGKγ immunoreactivity colocalized with those for GM130 and Golgin 97 but not with that for protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). In the presence of brefeldin A, DGKγ immunoreactivity was markedly decreased and displayed an aggregation-like pattern. After treatment of RAECs with nocodazole, DGKγ immunoreactivity was detected in Golgi stacks, which were severely segmented and appeared in vesicular shape. Stimulation with IL-1β increased mRNA expression of DGKγ, which was strongly attenuated by SB203580, a p38 MAPK inhibitor. IL-1β also induced expression of iNOS, which was observed as a tubular structure, and this distribution coincided with DGKγ immunoreactivity. Brefeldin A reduced both iNOS immunoreactivity and DGKγ immunoreactivity. iNOS expression was impaired by DGK inhibitors, R59022 and R59949. These results suggest that DGKγ is upregulated by IL-1β through the p38 MAPK pathway and may be involved in protein trafficking of iNOS in vascular endothelial cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND INFORMATION Rab11 is a small GTPase that controls diverse intracellular trafficking pathways. However, the molecular machinery that regulates the participation of Rab11 in those different transport events is poorly understood. In resting cells, Rab11 localizes at the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC), whereas the different protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms display a cytosolic distribution. RESULTS Sustained phorbol ester stimulation induces the translocation of the classical PKCα and PKCβII isoenzymes to the ERC enriched in Rab11, and results in transferrin recycling inhibition. In contrast, novel PKCε and atypical PKCζ isoenzymes neither redistribute to the perinucleus nor modify transferrin recycling transport after phorbol ester stimulation. Although several Rabs have been shown to be phosphorylated, there is to date no evidence indicating Rab11 as a kinase substrate. In this report, we show that Rab11 appears phosphorylated in vivo in phorbol ester-stimulated cells. A bioinformatic analysis of Rab11 allowed us to identify several high-probability Ser/Thr kinase phosphorylation sites. Our results demonstrate that classical PKC (PKCα and PKCβII but not PKCβI) directly phosphorylate Rab11 in vitro. In addition, novel PKCε and PKCη but not PKCδ isoenzymes also phosphorylate Rab11. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed that Ser 177 is the Rab11 residue to be phosphorylated in vitro by either PKCβII or PKCε. In agreement, the phosphomimetic mutant, Rab11 S177D, retains transferrin at the ERC in the absence of phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate stimulus. CONCLUSIONS This report shows for the first time that Rab11 is differentially phosphorylated by distinct PKC isoenzymes and that this post-translational modification might be a regulatory mechanism of intracellular trafficking.

Abstract
Phenotypic differences in Schwann cells (SCs) may help to guide axonal regeneration down motor or sensory specific pathways following peripheral nerve injury. The goal of this study was to identify phenotypic markers for SCs harvested from the cutaneous (sensory) and quadriceps (motor) branches of the rat femoral nerve and to study the effects of expansion culture on the expression patterns of these motor or sensory phenotypic markers. RNA was extracted from SCs harvested from the motor and sensory branches of the rat femoral nerve and analyzed using Affymetrix Gene Chips (Rat Genome 230 v2.0 Array A). Genes that were upregulated in motor SCs compared with the sensory SCs or vice versa were identified, and the results were verified for a subset of genes using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The expression levels of the "phenotype-specific" genes were then evaluated in SC expansion cultures at various time points over 30 days by qRT-PCR to determine the effect of expansion on SC phenotype. Expression levels of the phenotype-specific genes were significantly altered after expansion culture for both the motor and the sensory markers compared with fresh nerve tissue. These results indicate that both motor and sensory SC gene expression patterns are disrupted during expansion in vitro and may affect the ability of SCs to express phenotype-specific genes after transplantation.

Abstract
Rab2 requires glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and atypical protein kinase Ciota (aPKCiota) for retrograde vesicle formation from vesicular tubular clusters that sort secretory cargo from recycling proteins returned to the endoplasmic reticulum. However, the precise role of GAPDH and aPKCiota in the early secretory pathway is unclear. GAPDH was the first glycolytic enzyme reported to co-purify with microtubules (MTs). Similarly, aPKC associates directly with MTs. To learn whether Rab2 also binds directly to MTs, a MT binding assay was performed. Purified Rab2 was found in a MT-enriched pellet only when both GAPDH and aPKCiota were present, and Rab2-MT binding could be prevented by a recombinant fragment made to the Rab2 amino terminus (residues 2-70), which directly interacts with GAPDH and aPKCiota. Because GAPDH binds to the carboxyl terminus of alpha-tubulin, we characterized the distribution of tyrosinated/detyrosinated alpha-tubulin that is recruited by Rab2 in a quantitative membrane binding assay. Rab2-treated membranes contained predominantly tyrosinated alpha-tubulin; however, aPKCiota was the limiting and essential factor. Tyrosination/detyrosination influences MT motor protein binding; therefore, we determined whether Rab2 stimulated kinesin or dynein membrane binding. Although kinesin was not detected on membranes incubated with Rab2, dynein was recruited in a dose-dependent manner, and binding was aPKCiota-dependent. These combined results suggest a mechanism by which Rab2 controls MT and motor recruitment to vesicular tubular clusters.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a well-studied glycolytic protein with energy production as its implied occupation. It has established itself lately as a multifunctional protein. Recent studies have found GAPDH to be involved in a variety of nuclear and cytosolic pathways ranging from its role in apoptosis and regulation of gene expression to its involvement in regulation of Ca2+ influx from endoplasmic reticulum. Numerous studies also indicate that GAPDH interacts with microtubules and participates in cell membrane fusion. This review is focused on the cytosolic functions of the protein related to vesicular transport. Suggestions for future directions as well as the model of protein polymer structure and possible post-translational modifications as a basis for its multifunctional activities in the early secretory pathway are given.

Abstract
Dietary triacylglycerols are absorbed by enterocytes and packaged in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in the intestinal specific lipoprotein, the chylomicron, for export into mesenteric lymph. Chylomicrons exit the ER in an ER-to-Golgi transport vesicle, the pre-chylomicron transport vesicle (PCTV), which is the rate-limiting step in the transit of chylomicrons across the cell. Here, we focus on potential mechanisms of control of the PCTV-budding step from the intestinal ER. We incubated intestinal ER with intestinal cytosol and ATP to cause PCTV budding. The budding reaction was inhibited by 60 nM of the PKC inhibitor Gö 6983, suggesting the importance of PKCzeta in the generation of PCTV. Immunodepletion of PKCzeta from the cytosol and the use of washed ER greatly inhibited the generation of PCTVs, but was restored following the addition of recombinant PKCzeta. Intestinal ER incubated with intestinal cytosol and [gamma-(32)P]ATP under conditions supporting the generation of PCTVs showed the phosphorylation of a 9-kDa band following autoradiography. The phosphorylation of this protein correlated with the generation of PCTVs but not the formation of protein vesicles and was inhibited by depletion of PKCzeta. Phosphorylation of the 9-kDa protein was restored following the addition of recombinant PKCzeta. The association of the 9-kDa protein with proteins that are important for PCTV budding was phosphorylation dependent. We conclude that PKCzeta activity is required for PCTV budding from intestinal ER, and is associated with phosphorylation of a 9-kDa protein that might regulate PCTV budding.

Abstract
The inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase INPP5B is closely related to the Lowe syndrome protein OCRL1, sharing a similar substrate specificity, domain organisation and an ability to compensate for loss of OCRL1 in knockout mice. The cellular localisation and functions of INPP5B have remained poorly defined until recently, when a role within the endocytic pathway was suggested. Here, we report that INPP5B is also localised to the early secretory pathway including the Golgi apparatus and ER-to-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC). Consistent with this localisation, INPP5B binds to specific RAB proteins within the secretory pathway, and mutational analysis indicates that RAB binding is required for efficient Golgi targeting of INPP5B. Unlike OCRL1, INPP5B interacts with neither clathrin nor α-adaptin and is largely absent from clathrin-coated intermediates. Expression of INPP5B but not OCRL1 alters the distribution of the cycling protein ERGIC53 when cells are incubated at low temperature (15°C) or in the presence of brefeldin A, causing ERGIC53 to accumulate in the ERGIC, with a concomitant loss from the ER. Our data suggest a role for INPP5B in retrograde ERGIC-to-ER transport and imply that it has functions distinct from those of OCRL1 within both the secretory and endocytic pathways.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) has multiple intracellular activities in addition to its role in gluconeogenesis. Indeed, we have reported that GAPDH is required for Rab2-mediated retrograde transport from vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs). These diverse GAPDH activities are the result of posttranslational modifications that confer a new function to the enzyme. In that regard, GAPDH is tyrosine phosphorylated by Src. To establish the functional significance of this modification for GAPDH activity in Rab2-dependent events, an amino acid substitution was made at tyrosine 41 (GAPDH Y41F). The inability of Src to phosphorylate purified recombinant GAPDH Y41F was confirmed in an in vitro kinase assay. The mutant was then employed in a quantitative membrane-binding assay that measures Rab2 recruitment of soluble components to VTCs. As we observed with GAPDH wild type, Rab2 promoted GAPDH Y41F binding to membranes in a dose-dependent manner, indicating that GAPDH tyrosine phosphorylation is not required for VTC association. However, GAPDH was tyrosine phosphorylated on VTCs. Importantly, GAPDH Y41F blocked vesicular stomatitis virus-G transport in an assay that reconstitutes endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi trafficking, indicating that phosphorylation of tyrosine 41 is essential for GAPDH activity in the early secretory pathway. The block in transport is because of the decreased binding of atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda to GAPDH Y41F, which reduces beta-coat protein association with the VTC and subsequent formation of Rab2-mediated retrograde vesicles. Our results suggest that Src plays a pivotal role in regulating the interaction of Rab2 effectors on the VTC.

Abstract
Some of the important open questions concerning the physiology of the secretory pathway relate to its homeostasis. Secretion involves a number of separate compartments for which their transport activities should be precisely cross-coordinated to avoid gross imbalances in the trafficking system. Moreover, the membrane fluxes across these compartments should be able to adapt to environmental 'requests' and to respond to extracellular signals. How is this regulation effected? Here, we consider evidence that endomembrane-based signalling cascades that are similar in organization to those used at the plasma membrane coordinate membrane traffic. If this is the case, this would also represent a model for a more general inter-organelle signalling network for functionally interconnecting different intracellular activities, a necessity for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and to express harmonic global cellular responses.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab2 is required for membrane transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi complex. Rab2 associates with pre-Golgi intermediates (also termed vesicular tubular clusters; VTCs) that sort cargo to the anterograde pathway from recycling proteins retrieved to the ER. Our previous studies have shown that Rab2 stimulates atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (aPKCiota/lambda) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) recruitment to VTCs. Both aPKCiota/lambda and GAPDH bind directly to Rab2 and aPKCiota/lambda and GAPDH interact. Based on the reports demonstrating aPKCiota-Src interaction and Src activity in the retrograde pathway (Golgi-ER), studies were initiated to learn whether Rab2 also promoted Src recruitment to VTCs. Using a quantitative membrane binding assay, we found that Rab2-stimulated Src membrane association in a dose-dependent manner. The recruited Src binds to aPKCiota/lambda and GAPDH on the membrane; however, Src does not interact with Rab2. The membrane-associated Src tyrosine phosphorylates aPKCiota/lambda on the VTC. To determine the consequence of aPKCiota/lambda tyrosine phosphorylation, the membrane binding assay was supplemented with the Src-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor 4-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo(3,4-d)pyrimidine (PP2). Although Rab2, Src, and GAPDH recruitment was not affected, the Rab2-PP2-treated membranes contained a negligible amount of aPKCiota/lambda. Since Rab2 requires aPKCiota/lambda for the downstream recruitment of beta-coat protein (beta-COP) to VTCs, the Rab2-PP2-treated membranes were evaluated for the presence of beta-COP. Like aPKCiota/lambda, the membranes contained a negligible amount of beta-COP that was reflected by the drastic reduction in Rab2-dependent vesicle formation. These data suggest that Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of aPKCiota/lambda facilitates aPKCiota/lambda association with Rab2-Src-GAPDH on VTCs, which is ultimately necessary for the downstream recruitment of beta-COP and release of Rab2-mediated retrograde-directed vesicles.

Abstract
Rab proteins are small GTPases involved in the regulation of vesicular membrane traffic. Research done in the past years has demonstrated that some of these proteins are under the control of signal transduction pathways. Still, several recent papers point out to a new unexpected role for this family of Ras-related proteins, as potential regulators of intracellular signaling pathways. In particular, several evidence indicate that members of the Rab family of small GTPases, through their effectors, are key molecules participating to the regulation of numerous signal transduction pathways profoundly influencing cell proliferation, cell nutrition, innate immune response, fragmentation of compartments during mitosis and apoptosis. Even more surprisingly, direct involvement of Rab proteins in signaling to the nucleus has been demonstrated. This review will focus on aspects of Rab proteins function connected to signal transduction and, in particular, connections between membrane traffic and other cell pathways will be examined.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab2 is essential for membrane trafficking in the early secretory pathway. Rab2 associates with vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs) located between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi complex. VTCs function as transport intermediates and sort anterograde-directed cargo from recycling proteins. Rab2 selectively recruits atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (aPKCiota/lambda) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAPDH) to VTCs where aPKCiota/lambda phosphorylates GAPDH. Both aPKCiota/lambda and GAPDH bind directly to Rab2 and this interaction ultimately results in COPI recruitment and the release of retrograde-directed vesicles. This chapter describes a protocol to purify recombinant Rab2 from Rab2 cDNA transformed bacteria and methods to assess recombinant Rab2 biological activity. Additionally, in vivo and in vitro assays are outlined that are employed to demonstrate Rab2 interaction with the downstream effectors aPKCiota/lambda and GAPDH.

Abstract
Rab2 requires atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (aPKC iota/lambda) to promote vesicle formation from vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs). The Rab2-generated vesicles are enriched in recycling proteins suggesting that the carriers are retrograde-directed and retrieve transport machinery back to the endoplasmic reticulum. These vesicles also contained the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). We have previously established that GAPDH is required for membrane transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex. Moreover, GAPDH is phosphorylated by aPKC iota/lambda and binds to the aPKC iota/lambda regulatory domain. In this study, we employed a combination of in vivo and in vitro assays and determined that GAPDH also interacts with Rab2. The site of GAPDH interaction was mapped to Rab2 residues 20-50. In addition to its glycolytic function, GAPDH has multiple intracellular roles. However, the function of GAPDH in the early secretory pathway is unknown. One possibility is that GAPDH ultimately provides energy in the form of ATP. To determine whether GAPDH catalytic activity was critical for transport in the early secretory pathway, a conservative substitution was made at Cys-149 located at the active site, and the mutant was biochemically characterized in a battery of assays. Although GAPDH (C149G) has no catalytic activity, Rab2 recruited the mutant protein to membranes in a quantitative binding assay. GAPDH (C149G) is phosphorylated by aPKC iota/lambda and binds directly to Rab2 when evaluated in an overlay binding assay. Importantly, VSV-G transport between the ER and Golgi complex is restored when an in vitro trafficking assay is performed with GAPDH-depleted cytosol and GAPDH (C149G). These data suggest that GAPDH imparts a unique function necessary for membrane trafficking from VTCs that does not require GAPDH glycolytic activity.

Abstract
Atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (PKCiota/lambda) is essential for protein transport in the early secretory pathway. The small GTPase Rab2 selectively recruits the kinase to vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs) where PKCiota/lambda phosphorylates glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). VTCs are composed of small vesicles and tubules and serve as transport intermediates that shuttle cargo from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. These structures are the first site of segregation of the anterograde and retrograde pathways. When Rab2 binds to a VTC subcompartment, the subsequent recruitment of PKCiota/lambda and soluble components, including COPI (coatomer and ADP-ribosylation factor), results in the release of retrograde-directed vesicles. Because Rab2 stimulates PKCiota/lambda membrane association in a dose-dependent manner, we investigated whether the two proteins physically interact. Using a combination of in vivo and in vitro assays, we found that Rab2 interacts directly with PKCiota/lambda and that this interaction occurs through the Rab2 amino terminus (residues 1-19) and the PKCiota/lambda regulatory domain. A mutant lacking the PKCiota/lambda binding domain (Rab2N'Delta19) was functionally characterized. In contrast to Rab2, Rab2N'Delta19 failed to recruit PKCiota/lambda to normal rat kidney microsomes in a quantitative binding assay. To determine whether Rab2 modulates the ability of PKCiota/lambda to phosphorylate GAPDH, an in vitro kinase assay was supplemented with Rab2 or Rab2N'Delta19. Rab2 inhibited PKCiota/lambda-dependent GAPDH phosphorylation, whereas no effect was observed when the assay was performed with the aminoterminal truncation mutant. These results suggest that a downstream effector recruited to the VTC stimulates PKCiota/lambda-mediated GAPDH phosphorylation by alleviating the inhibition imposed by Rab2-PKCiota/lambda interaction.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab2 requires atypical protein kinase C iota/lambda (PKCiota/lambda) kinase activity to promote vesicle budding from normal rat kidney cell microsomes (Tisdale, E. J. (2000) Traffic 1, 702-712). The released vesicles lack anterograde-directed cargo but contain coat protein I (COPI) and the recycling protein p53/p58, suggesting that the vesicles traffic in the retrograde pathway. In this study, we have directly characterized the role of PKCiota/lambda in the early secretory pathway. A peptide corresponding to the unique PKCiota/lambda pseudosubstrate domain was introduced into an in vitro assay that efficiently reconstitutes transport of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cis-medial Golgi compartments. This peptide blocked transport in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, normal rat kidney cells incubated with Rab2 and the pseudosubstrate peptide displayed abundant swollen or dilated vesicles that contained Rab2, PKCiota/lambda, beta-COP, and p53/p58. Because Rab2, beta-COP, and p53/p58 are marker proteins for pre-Golgi intermediates (vesicular tubular clusters,VTCs), most probably the swollen vesicles are derived from VTCs. Similar results were obtained when the assays were supplemented with kinase-dead PKCiota/lambda (W274K). Both the pseudosubstrate peptide and kinase-dead PKCiota/lambda in tandem with Rab2 caused sustained membrane association of PKCiota/lambda, suggesting that reverse translocation was inhibited. Importantly, the inhibitory phenotype of kinase-dead PKCiota/lambda was reversed by PKCiota/lambda wild type. These combined results indicate that PKCiota/lambda is essential for protein transport in the early secretory pathway and suggest that PKCiota/lambda kinase activity is required to promote Rab2-mediated vesicle budding at a VTC subcompartment enriched in recycling cargo.

Abstract
Intracellular trafficking of membranes plays an essential role in the biogenesis and maintenance of myelin. The requisite proteins and lipids are transported from their sites of synthesis to myelin via vesicles. Vesicle transport is tightly coordinated with synthesis of lipids and proteins. To maintain the structural and functional organization of oligodendrocytes it is essential synchronize the various pathways of vesicle transport and to coordinate vesicle transport with reorganization of cytoskeleton. The systems that regulate the targeting of protein to myelin by vesicle transport are now being described. Here we review the current knowledge of these systems including those involved in (a) protein folding, (b) protein sorting and formation of carrier vesicles, (c) vesicle transport along elements of the cytoskeleton, and (d) vesicle targeting/fusion.

Abstract
Vesicular transport is the predominant mechanism for exchange of proteins and lipids between membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotic cells. Golgi-derived COPI-coated vesicles are involved in several vesicular transport steps, including bidirectional transport within the Golgi and recycling to the ER. Recent work has shed light on the mechanism of COPI vesicle biogenesis, in particular the machinery required for vesicle formation. The new findings have allowed us to generate a model that covers the cycle of coat recruitment, coat polymerization, vesicle budding and uncoating.

Abstract
Rab22a is a small GTPase that is expressed ubiquitously in mammalian tissues and displays the highest sequence homology to Rab5. In BHK-21 cells,overexpression of the wild-type Rab22a caused formation of abnormally large vacuole-like structures containing the early-endosomal antigen EEA1 but not Rab11, a marker of recycling endosomes or the late-endosomal/lysosomal markers LAMP-1 and lyso-bis-phosphatidic acid. In HeLa cells, overexpressed Rab22a was found on smaller EEA1-positive endosomes, but a portion of the protein was also found in the Golgi complex. Using the yeast two-hybrid system and a biochemical pull-down assay, the GTP-bound form of Rab22a was found to interact with the N-terminus of EEA1. In HeLa cells overexpressing Rab22a or its mutants affected in the GTPase cycle, no significant changes were observed in the uptake of Alexa-transferrin. However, the GTPase-deficient Rab22a Q64L mutant caused a redistribution of transferrin-positive endosomes to the leading edges of cells and a fragmentation of the Golgi complex. In BHK cells,the Q64L mutant caused the accumulation of a fluid phase marker,TRITC-dextran, and a lysosomal hydrolase, aspartylglucosaminidase, in abnormal vacuole-like structures that contained both early and late endosome markers. Both the wild-type Rab22a and the Q64L mutant were found to interfere with the degradation of EGF. These results suggest that Rab22a may regulate the dynamic interactions of endosomal compartments and it may be involved in the communication between the biosynthetic and early endocytic pathways.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab2 immunolocalizes to vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs) that function as transport complexes carrying cargo between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex. Our previous studies showed that Rab2 promotes vesicle formation from VTCs and that the released vesicles are enriched in beta-coat protein, protein kinase C iota/lambda (PKCiota/lambda), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and the recycling protein p53/gp58. Because PKCiota/lambda kinase activity was necessary for vesicle formation, a search was initiated to identify the substrate(s) that potentiate Rab2 function within VTCs. In this study, we found that PKCiota/lambda phosphorylates GAPDH. Moreover, GAPDH interacts directly with the PKCiota/lambda regulatory domain. Based on numerous observations that show (beta-COP) GAPDH associates with cytoskeletal elements, we examined the role of phospho-GAPDH in promoting microtubule (MT) binding to membrane. Using a quantitative microsomal binding assay, we found that membrane association of beta-tubulin was dependent on phospho-GAPDH and was blocked by reagents that interfere with Rab2-dependent GAPDH membrane recruitment or with PKCiota/lambda kinase activity. Furthermore, normal rat kidney cells transfected with a constitutively activated form of Rab2 (Q65L) or with our anti-GAPDH polyclonal antibody displayed a dramatic change in MT organization. These combined results suggest that Rab2 stimulated PKCiota/lambda and GAPDH recruitment to VTCs, and the subsequent PKCiota/lambda phosphorylation of GAPDH ultimately influences MT dynamics in the early secretory pathway.

Abstract
The efficient exit of HIV-1 particles from cells requires the action of the viral encoded protein Vpu. Vpu-binding protein (Ubp) is a cellular protein that interacts with both Vpu and the major structural component of the viral capsid (Gag) and appears to affect the efficiency of particle exit. Elucidation of the function of Ubp and characterization of the spatial distribution of Ubp may provide information pertinent to understanding the role of Ubp in virus replication. To investigate the subcellular location of Ubp, and to see whether Vpu affects the intracellular distribution of Gag, we carried out immunofluorescence localization in conjunction with confocal microscopy. Based on this analysis Ubp is present in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, Ubp appeared to be associated with microtubules as evidenced by cofluorescence with tubulin in the absence and in the presence of colchicine. However, cytoskeletal isolation and detergent extraction of cells resulted in association of Ubp with the soluble fractions, indicating that Ubp is not in tight association with microtubules. Moreover, flotation gradient analysis demonstrated that Ubp is cytoplasmic and not stably associated with the plasma membrane. Interestingly, expression of Vpu in cells resulted in redistribution of both Ubp and Gag to a location near the periphery of the cell. The effect of Vpu on both Ubp and Gag protein has implications for Vpu-mediated particle exit from cells.

Abstract
Protein transport in the early secretory pathway requires Rab2 GTPase. This protein promotes the recruitment of soluble components that participate in protein sorting and recycling from pre-Golgi intermediates (vesicular tubular clusters (VTCs)). We previously reported that a constitutively activated form of Rab2 (Q65L) as well as Rab2 wild type promoted vesicle formation from VTCs. These vesicles contained Rab2, beta-COP, p53/gp58, and protein kinase Ciota/lambda but lacked anterograde-directed cargo. To identify other candidate Rab2 effectors, the polypeptide composition of the vesicles was further analyzed. We found that vesicles released in response to Rab2 also contained the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). To study the relationship of this enzyme to Rab2 function, we performed a quantitative binding assay to measure recruitment of GAPDH to membrane when incubated with Rab2. Rab2-treated microsomes showed a 5-10-fold increase in the level of membrane-associated GAPDH. We generated an affinity-purified anti-GAPDH polyclonal to study the biochemical role of GAPDH in the early secretory pathway. The antibody arrests transport of a reporter molecule in an assay that reconstitutes ER to Golgi traffic. Furthermore, the affinity-purified antibody blocked the ability of Rab2 to recruit GAPDH to membrane. However, the antibody did not interfere with Rab2 stimulated vesicle release. These data suggest that GAPDH is required for ER to Golgi transport. We propose that membranes incubated with anti-GAPDH and Rab2 form "dead end" vesicles that are unable to transport and fuse with the acceptor compartment.
