Structure-Function Relationships of the CMP-Sialic Acid Transporter through Analysis of a Pathogenic Variant in an Alternatively Spliced Functional Isoform. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:50622-50633. [PMID: 39741807 PMCID: PMC11683650 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c08466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2024] [Revised: 10/24/2024] [Accepted: 11/14/2024] [Indexed: 01/03/2025]
Abstract
The human CMP-sialic acid transporter (hCST) is a mammalian highly conserved type III antiporter that translocates CMP-sialic acid into the Golgi lumen, supporting sialylation. Although different works have focused on elucidating structure-function relationships in the hCST, this is the first study to address them in an alternatively spliced isoform. We have previously reported the expression of a functional human del177 isoform that has skipping of exon 6, resulting in a loss of 59 amino acids, without change in the open reading frame and conserving its C-terminal region. To elucidate structure-function relationships, we interrogated this isoform with a known pathogenic variant c.303C>T (p.Q101H) for the wt isoform, showing that its pathogenicity is significatively reduced in the mutated del177 isoform (del177Q101H). This is further explained by using a homology model based on previously reported mouse and maize crystal structures.

Forebrain Eml1 depletion reveals early centrosomal dysfunction causing subcortical heterotopia. J Cell Biol 2024; 223:e202310157.

Abstract
Subcortical heterotopia is a cortical malformation associated with epilepsy, intellectual disability, and an excessive number of cortical neurons in the white matter. Echinoderm microtubule-associated protein like 1 (EML1) mutations lead to subcortical heterotopia, associated with abnormal radial glia positioning in the cortical wall, prior to malformation onset. This perturbed distribution of proliferative cells is likely to be a critical event for heterotopia formation; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unexplained. This study aimed to decipher the early cellular alterations leading to abnormal radial glia. In a forebrain conditional Eml1 mutant model and human patient cells, primary cilia and centrosomes are altered. Microtubule dynamics and cell cycle kinetics are also abnormal in mouse mutant radial glia. By rescuing microtubule formation in Eml1 mutant embryonic brains, abnormal radial glia delamination and heterotopia volume were significantly reduced. Thus, our new model of subcortical heterotopia reveals the causal link between Eml1's function in microtubule regulation and cell position, both critical for correct cortical development.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, the Golgi exists in ribbon architecture-individual stacks laterally linked to each other by tubular structures. Golgi architecture changes dynamically to cater to cellular needs. Loss of architecture is linked with pathological conditions like cancer and neurodegeneration. Not much is known about the regulators of Golgi dynamics. Here, we demonstrate that CARP2 (caspase-8- and caspase-10-associated RING-containing protein 2), an endosomal ubiquitin ligase and a known regulator of cell migration, modulates Golgi dynamics. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) treatment modestly increases CARP2 protein and disperses Golgi. An exogenous supply of CARP2 also leads to Golgi dispersal. Conversely, Golgi remains intact in CARP2 knockout (KO) cells upon EGF treatment. CARP2 variants defective in either endosomal association or ligase activity are unable to affect Golgi dispersal. Importantly, CARP2 targets Golgin45 for ubiquitination and degradation in EGF-stimulated cells. Collectively, our findings unravel the existence of crosstalk between endosomal ubiquitin signaling and Golgi dynamics.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, the Golgi apparatus undergoes fragmentation for its correct partition into two daughter cells during mitosis. Several Golgi structural proteins have been demonstrated to regulate Golgi disassembly/reassembly and spindle formation. However, it is largely unknown whether Golgi proteins mediate other major events in mitosis. Here, we report that Golgin45, a Golgi tethering protein, participates in recruiting PLK1 to the kinetochores. Upon entry into mitosis, Golgin45 binds PLK1 and a nuclear import protein, importin β2. Enriched RanGTP at kinetochores in prometaphase and metaphase sequesters importin β2 from Golgin45 and liberates Golgin45-PLK1 complex, which then gets further delivered to the kinetochores by Golgin45-KNL1 interaction. R375A mutation in Golgin45 that specifically disrupts Golgin45-importin β2 interaction impairs PLK1 localization to the kinetochores, leading to mitotic arrest. Our findings reveal a novel role of a golgin tether protein in mediating Ran-dependent PLK1 enrichment on the kinetochores for proper progression of mitosis.

Abstract
Rab GTPases control intracellular vesicular transport, including retrograde trafficking of human papillomavirus (HPV) during cell entry, guiding the virus from the endosome to the trans-Golgi network (TGN), the Golgi apparatus, and eventually the nucleus. Rab proteins have been identified that act prior to the arrival of HPV at the TGN, but Rab proteins operating in later stages of entry remain elusive. Here, we report that knockdown of Rab6a impairs HPV entry by preventing HPV exit from the TGN and impeding intra-Golgi transport of the incoming virus. Rab6a supports HPV trafficking by facilitating the association of HPV with dynein, a motor protein complex, and BICD2, a dynein adaptor, in the TGN. L2 can bind directly to GTP-Rab6a in vitro, and excess of either GTP-Rab6a or GDP-Rab6 inhibits HPV entry, suggesting that cycling between GDP-Rab6 and GTP-Rab6 is critical. Notably, Rab6a is crucial for HPV-BICD2 and HPV-dynein association in the TGN of infected cells but not in the endosome. Our findings reveal important features of the molecular basis of HPV infection, including the discovery that HPV uses different mechanisms to engage dynein at different times during entry, and identify potential targets for therapeutic approaches to inhibit HPV infection. IMPORTANCE Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are small, non-enveloped DNA viruses that cause approximately 5% of human cancer. Like most other DNA viruses, HPV traffics to the nucleus during virus entry to successfully infect cells. We show here that HPV utilizes a cellular enzyme, Rab6a, during virus entry to engage the dynein molecular motor for transport along microtubules. Rab6a is required for complex formation between the HPV L2 capsid protein, dynein, and the dynein adaptor BICD2 in the trans-Golgi network (TGN). This complex is required for transport of the incoming virus out of the TGN as it journeys to the nucleus. Our findings identify potential targets for therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Thiol-mediated uptake (TMU) is thought to occur through dynamic covalent cascade exchange networks. Here we show that the cascade accounting for TMU of asparagusic acid derivatives (AspA) ends in the Golgi apparatus (G) and shifts from disulfide to thioester exchange with palmitoyl transferases as the final exchange partner. As a result, AspA combined with pH-sensitive fluoresceins, red-shifted silicon-rhodamines, or mechanosensitive flipper probes selectively labels the Golgi apparatus in fluorescence microscopy images in living and fixed cells. AspA Golgi trackers work without cellular engineering and excel with speed, simplicity, generality, and compatibility with G/ER and cis/trans discrimination, morphological changes, anterograde vesicular trafficking, and superresolution imaging by stimulated emission depletion microscopy. Golgi flippers in particular can image membrane order and tension in the Golgi and, if desired, at the plasma membrane during TMU.

Abstract
Besides acting as an immunological shield, the N-glycans of SARS-CoV-2 are also critical for viral life cycle. As the S2 subunit of spike is highly conserved across beta-coronaviruses, we determined the functional significance of the five 'stem N-glycans' located in S2 between N1098-N1194. Studies were performed with 31 Asn-to-Gln mutants, beta-coronavirus virus-like particles and single-cycle viral replicons. Deletions of stem N-glycans enhanced S1 shedding from trimeric spike, reduced ACE2 binding and abolished syncytia formation. When three or more N-glycans were deleted, spike expression on cell surface and incorporation into virions was both reduced. Viral entry function was progressively lost upon deleting the N1098 glycan in combination with additional glycosite modifications. In addition to SARS-CoV-2, deleting stem N-glycans in SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV spike also prevented viral entry into target cells. These data suggest multiple functional roles for the stem N-glycans, and evolutionarily conserved properties for these complex carbohydrates across human beta-coronaviruses.

Abstract
Organisms experience constant nutritional flux. Mechanisms at the interface of opposing nutritional states-scarcity and surplus-enable organismal energy homeostasis. Contingent on nutritional stores, adipocytes secrete adipokines, such as the fat hormone leptin, to signal nutrient status to the central brain. Increased leptin secretion underlies metabolic dysregulation during common obesity, but the molecular mechanisms regulating leptin secretion from human adipocytes are poorly understood. Here, we report that Atg8/LC3 family proteins, best known for their role in autophagy during nutrient scarcity, play an evolutionarily conserved role during nutrient surplus by promoting adipokine secretion. We show that in a well-fed state, Atg8/LC3 promotes the secretion of the Drosophila functional leptin ortholog unpaired 2 (Upd2) and leptin from human adipocytes. Proteomic analyses reveal that LC3 directs leptin to a secretory pathway in human cells. We identified LC3-dependent extracellular vesicle (EV) loading and secretion (LDELS) as a required step for leptin release, highlighting a unique secretory route adopted by leptin in human adipocytes. In Drosophila, mutations to Upd2's Atg8 interaction motif (AIM) result in constitutive adipokine retention. Atg8-mediated Upd2 retention alters lipid storage and hunger response and rewires the bulk organismal transcriptome in a manner conducive to starvation survival. Thus, Atg8/LC3's bidirectional role in nutrient sensing-conveying nutrient surplus and responding to nutrient deprivation-enables organisms to manage nutrient flux effectively. We posit that decoding how bidirectional molecular switches-such as Atg8/LC3-operate at the nexus of nutritional scarcity and surplus will inform therapeutic strategies to tackle chronic metabolic disorders.

Acta Biomater 2024; 183:235-251. [PMID: 38801870 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.05.034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
The Golgi apparatus (GA) is a vital target for anticancer therapy due to its sensitivity against reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced oxidative stress that could lead to cell death. In this study, we designed a series of aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based photosensitizers (TPAPyTZ, TPAPyTC, TPAPyTM, and TPAPyTI) carrying different ROS with selective GA-targeted ability. The in vitro study showed that TPAPyTZ and TPAPyTC displayed strong AIE characteristics, robust type-I/II ROS production capabilities, specific GA-targeted, high photostability, and high imaging quality. The cell-uptake of TPAPyTZ was found primarily through an energy-dependent caveolae/raft-mediated endocytosis pathway. Remarkably, TPAPyTZ induced GA-oxidative stress, leading to GA fragmentation, downregulation of GM130 expression, and activation of mitochondria caspase-related apoptosis during photodynamic therapy (PDT). In vivo experiments revealed that TPAPyTZ significantly inhibited tumor proliferation under lower-intensity white light irradiation with minimal side effects. Overall, our work presents a promising strategy for designing AIEgens for fluorescence imaging-guided PDT. Additionally, it enriched the collection of GA-targeted leads for the development of cancer theranostics capable of visualizing dynamic changes in the GA during cancer cell apoptosis, which could potentially enable early diagnosis applications in the future. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: AIE luminogens (AIEgens) are potent phototheranostic agents that can exhibit strong fluorescence emission and enhance ROS production in the aggregate states. In this study, through the precise design of photosensitizers with four different electron-acceptors, we constructed a series of potent AIEgens (TPAPyTZ, TPAPyTC, TPAPyTM, and TPAPyTI) with strong fluorescence intensity and ROS generation capacity. Among them, TPAPyTZ with an extended π-conjugation displayed the strongest ROS generation ability and anti-tumor activity, resulting in an 88 % reduction in tumor weight. Our studies revealed that the enhanced activity of TPAPyTZ may be due to its unique Golgi apparatus (GA)-targeted ability, which causes GA oxidative stress followed by effective cancer cell apoptosis. This unique GA-targeted feature of TPAPyTZ remains rare in the reported AIEgens, which mainly target organelles such as lysosome, mitochondria, and cell membrane. The successful design of a GA-targeted and potent AIEgen could enrich the collection of GA-targeted luminogens, providing a lead theranostic for the further development of fluorescence imaging-guided PDT, and serving as a tool to explore the potential mechanism and discover new GA-specific drug targets.

Abstract
The mammalian Golgi is composed of stacks that are laterally connected into a continuous ribbon-like structure. The integrity and function of the ribbon is disrupted under stress conditions, but the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that the ribbon is maintained by biomolecular condensates of RNA and the Golgi matrix protein GM130 (GOLGA2). We identify GM130 as a membrane-bound RNA-binding protein, which directly recruits RNA and associated RNA-binding proteins to the Golgi membrane. Acute degradation of RNA or GM130 in cells disrupts the ribbon. Under stress conditions, RNA dissociates from GM130 and the ribbon is disjointed, but after the cells recover from stress the ribbon is restored. When overexpressed in cells, GM130 forms RNA-dependent liquid-like condensates. GM130 contains an intrinsically disordered domain at its amino terminus, which binds RNA to induce liquid-liquid phase separation. These co-condensates are sufficient to link purified Golgi membranes, reconstructing lateral linking of stacks into a ribbon-like structure. Together, these studies show that RNA acts as a structural biopolymer that together with GM130 maintains the integrity of the Golgi ribbon.

Jarero-Basulto JJ, Gasca-Martínez Y, Rivera-Cervantes MC, Gasca-Martínez D, Carrillo-González NJ, Beas-Zárate C, Gudiño-Cabrera G. Cytotoxic Effect of Amyloid-β1-42 Oligomers on Endoplasmic Reticulum and Golgi Apparatus Arrangement in SH-SY5Y Neuroblastoma Cells. NEUROSCI 2024; 5:141-157. [PMID: 39483494 PMCID: PMC11469764 DOI: 10.3390/neurosci5020010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 04/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 11/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Amyloid-β oligomers are a cytotoxic structure that is key for the establishment of the beginning stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). These structures promote subcellular alterations that cause synaptic dysfunction, loss of cell communication, and even cell death, generating cognitive deficits. The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic effects of amyloid-β1-42 oligomers (AβOs) on the membranous organelles involved in protein processing: the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus (GA). The results obtained with 10 μM AβOs in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells showed that oligomeric structures are more toxic than monomers because they cause cell viability to decrease as exposure time increases. Survivor cells were analyzed to further understand the toxic effects of AβOs on intracellular organelles. Survivor cells showed morphological alterations associated with abnormal cytoskeleton modification 72-96 h after exposure to AβOs. Moreover, the ER and GA presented rearrangement throughout the cytoplasmic space, which could be attributed to a lack of constitutive protein processing or to previous abnormal cytoskeleton modification. Interestingly, the disorganization of both ER and GA organelles exposed to AβOs is likely an early pathological alteration that could be related to aberrant protein processing and accumulation in AD.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus plays a crucial role in mediating the modification, transport, and sorting of intracellular proteins and lipids. The morphological changes occurring in the Golgi apparatus are exceptionally important for maintaining its function. When exposed to external pressure or environmental stimulation, the Golgi apparatus undergoes adaptive changes in both structure and function, which are known as Golgi stress. Although certain signal pathway responses or post-translational modifications have been observed following Golgi stress, further research is needed to comprehensively summarize and understand the related mechanisms. Currently, there is evidence linking Golgi stress to neurodegenerative diseases; however, the role of Golgi stress in the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease remains largely unexplored. This review focuses on the structural and functional alterations of the Golgi apparatus during stress, elucidating potential mechanisms underlying the involvement of Golgi stress in regulating immunity, autophagy, and metabolic processes. Additionally, it highlights the pivotal role of Golgi stress as an early signaling event implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, this study summarizes prospective targets that can be therapeutically exploited to mitigate neurodegenerative diseases by targeting Golgi stress. These findings provide a theoretical foundation for identifying novel breakthroughs in preventing and treating neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) plays an important role in cell metabolism and has been regarded as an indicator of cell survival and damage. Golgi apparatus participates in the signal transduction processes of substance transport, ion homeostasis and stress when extracellular substances enter cells. Till now, there is no fluorescent probe for monitoring Golgi ATP level fluctuation and visualizing the configuration change of the Golgi apparatus during the inhibition of glycolysis. RESULTS Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel water-soluble cationic polythiophene derivative (PEMTEA) that can be employed as a fluorescent sensor for measuring ATP in the Golgi apparatus. PEMTEA self-assembles into PT-NP nanoparticles in aqueous solution with a diameter of approximately 2 nm. PT-NP displays high sensitivity and superb selectivity towards ATP with a detection limit of 90 nM and a linear detection range from 0 to 3.0 μM. The nanoparticles show low toxicity to HepG2 cells and good photostability in the Golgi apparatus. With the stimulation of Ca2+, PT-NP was practically applied to real-time monitor of endogenous ATP levels in the Golgi apparatus through fluorescence microscopy. Finally, we studied the relationship between the concentration of ATP and configuration of the Golgi apparatus during the inhibition of glycolysis using PT-NP. SIGNIFICANCE We have demonstrated that PT-NP can not only indicate the fluctuation and distribution of ATP in the Golgi apparatus, but also give the information of the configuration change of the Golgi apparatus at the single-cell level during the inhibition of glycolysis.

Abstract
Salmonella utilizes a type 3 secretion system to translocate virulence proteins (effectors) into host cells during infection1. The effectors modulate host cell machinery to drive uptake of the bacteria into vacuoles, where they can establish an intracellular replicative niche. A remarkable feature of Salmonella invasion is the formation of actin-rich protuberances (ruffles) on the host cell surface that contribute to bacterial uptake. However, the membrane source for ruffle formation and how these bacteria regulate membrane mobilization within host cells remains unclear. Here, we show that Salmonella exploits membrane reservoirs for the generation of invasion ruffles. The reservoirs are pre-existing tubular compartments associated with the plasma membrane (PM) and are formed through the activity of RAB10 GTPase. Under normal growth conditions, membrane reservoirs contribute to PM homeostasis and are preloaded with the exocyst subunit EXOC2. During Salmonella invasion, the bacterial effectors SipC, SopE2, and SopB recruit exocyst subunits from membrane reservoirs and other cellular compartments, thereby allowing exocyst complex assembly and membrane delivery required for bacterial uptake. Our findings reveal an important role for RAB10 in the establishment of membrane reservoirs and the mechanisms by which Salmonella can exploit these compartments during host cell invasion.

Abstract
Oligoasthenoteratospermia (OAT), characterized by abnormally low sperm count, poor sperm motility, and abnormally high number of deformed spermatozoa, is an important cause of male infertility. Its genetic basis in many affected individuals remains unknown. Here, we found that CCDC157 variants are associated with OAT. In two cohorts, a 21-bp (g.30768132_30768152del21) and/or 24-bp (g.30772543_30772566del24) deletion of CCDC157 were identified in five sporadic OAT patients, and 2 cases within one pedigree. In a mouse model, loss of Ccdc157 led to male sterility with OAT-like phenotypes. Electron microscopy revealed misstructured acrosome and abnormal head-tail coupling apparatus in the sperm of Ccdc157-null mice. Comparative transcriptome analysis showed that the Ccdc157 mutation alters the expressions of genes involved in cell migration/motility and Golgi components. Abnormal Golgi apparatus and decreased expressions of genes involved in acrosome formation and lipid metabolism were detected in Ccdc157-deprived mouse germ cells. Interestingly, we attempted to treat infertile patients and Ccdc157 mutant mice with a Chinese medicine, Huangjin Zanyu, which improved the fertility in one patient and most mice that carried the heterozygous mutation in CCDC157. Healthy offspring were produced. Our study reveals CCDC157 is essential for sperm maturation and may serve as a marker for diagnosis of OAT.

Abstract
Cargo traffic through the Golgi apparatus is mediated by cisternal maturation, but it remains largely unclear how the cis-cisternae, the earliest Golgi sub-compartment, is generated and how the Golgi matures into the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Here, we use high-speed and high-resolution confocal microscopy to analyze the spatiotemporal dynamics of a diverse set of proteins that reside in and around the Golgi in budding yeast. We find many mobile punctate structures that harbor yeast counterparts of mammalian endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) proteins, which we term 'yeast ERGIC'. It occasionally exhibits approach and contact behavior toward the ER exit sites and gradually matures into the cis-Golgi. Upon treatment with the Golgi-disrupting agent brefeldin A, the ERGIC proteins form larger aggregates corresponding to the Golgi entry core compartment in plants, while cis- and medial-Golgi proteins are absorbed into the ER. We further analyze the dynamics of several late Golgi proteins to better understand the Golgi-TGN transition. Together with our previous studies, we demonstrate a detailed spatiotemporal profile of the entire cisternal maturation process from the ERGIC to the Golgi and further to the TGN.

Abstract
Family with sequence similarity 20, member A (FAM20A) is a pseudo-kinase in the secretory pathway and is essential for enamel formation in humans. Here we examine if FAM20A is a membrane-associated protein. We show that the full-length FAM20A can be purified from HEK293 cells transfected with a FAM20A-expresing construct. Further, it is only found in the membrane fraction, but not in the soluble fraction, of cell lysate. Consistently, it is not secreted out of the expressing cells. Moreover, it is co-localized with GM130, a cis-Golgi network marker, and membrane topology analysis indicates that it has its C-terminus oriented towards the lumen of the organelle. Our results support that FAM20A is a Type II transmembrane protein within the secretory compartments.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to investigate the impact of 21 NDP mutations located at the dimer interface, focusing on their potential effects on protein assembly, secretion efficiency, and activation of the Norrin/β-catenin signaling pathway. Methods The expression level, secretion efficiency, and protein assembly of mutations were analyzed using Western blot. The Norrin/β-catenin signaling pathway activation ability after overexpression of mutants or supernatant incubation of mutant proteins was tested in HEK293STF cells. The mutant norrin and wild-type (WT) FZD4 were overexpressed in HeLa cells to observe their co-localization. Immunofluorescence staining was conducted in HeLa cells to analyze the subcellular localization of Norrin and the Retention Using Selective Hook (RUSH) assay was used to dynamically observe the secretion process of WT and mutant Norrin. Results Four mutants (A63S, E66K, H68P, and L103Q) exhibited no significant differences from WT in all evaluations. The other 17 mutants presented abnormalities, including inadequate protein assembly, reduced secretion, inability to bind to FZD4 on the cell membrane, and decreased capacity to activate Norrin/β-catenin signaling pathway. The RUSH assay revealed the delay in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit and impairment of Golgi transport. Conclusions Mutations at the Norrin dimer interface may lead to abnormal protein assembly, inability to bind to FZD4, and decreased secretion, thus contributing to compromised Norrin/β-catenin signaling. Our results shed light on the pathogenic mechanisms behind a significant proportion of NDP gene mutations in familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) or Norrie disease.

Maeda K, Goto S, Miura K, Saito K, Morita E. The incorporation of extracellular vesicle markers varies among vesicles with distinct surface charges. J Biochem 2024; 175:299-312.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of intercellular communication. However, the methods available for distinguishing the heterogeneity of secreted EVs and isolating and purifying them are limited. This study introduced a HiBiT-tag to detect various EV markers, including CD63, CD9, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR), Flotilin1, and Syndecan-1, and investigated whether these marker-containing vesicles were capable of binding to differently charged column carriers. Four column carriers, Diethylaminoethyl (DEAE), Capto Adhere, Blue and Heparin, showed affinity for CD63 containing EVs, but their elution patterns varied. Furthermore, we observed that the elution patterns of the EV markers differed among vesicles with distinct surface charges when a DEAE column was used. This suggests that the incorporation of EV markers varied between these vesicles. The markers showed different subcellular localizations, indicating that the site of vesicle formation may contribute to the production of vesicles with varying charges and marker incorporation. These findings may have implications for the development of methods to purify homogeneous EVs, which could be useful in EV-mediated drug delivery systems.

Abstract
The Golgi Reassembly and Stacking Proteins (GRASPs) are engaged in various functions within the cell, both in unconventional secretion mechanisms and structuring and organizing the Golgi apparatus. Understanding their specific role in each situation still requires more structural and functional data at the molecular level. GRASP55 is one of the GRASP members in mammals, anchored to the membrane via the myristoylation of a Gly residue at its N-terminus. Therefore, co-translational modifications, such as myristoylation, are fundamental when considering a strategy to obtain detailed information on the interactions between GRASP55 and membranes. Despite its functional relevance, the N-terminal myristoylation has been underappreciated in the studies reported to date, compromising the previously proposed models for GRASP-membrane interactions. Here, we investigated the synergy between the presence of the membrane and the formation of oligomeric structures of myristoylated GRASP55, using a series of biophysical techniques to perform the structural characterization of the lipidated GRASP55 and its interaction with biological lipid model membranes. Our data fulfill an unexplored gap: the adequate evaluation of the presence of lipidations and lipid membranes on the structure-function dyad of GRASPs.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Photoreceptor cells in the vertebrate retina have a highly compartmentalized morphology for efficient phototransduction and vision. Rhodopsin, the visual pigment in rod photoreceptors, is densely packaged into the rod outer segment sensory cilium and continuously renewed through essential synthesis and trafficking pathways housed in the rod inner segment. Despite the importance of this region for rod health and maintenance, the subcellular organization of rhodopsin and its trafficking regulators in the mammalian rod inner segment remain undefined. We used super-resolution fluorescence microscopy with optimized retinal immunolabeling techniques to perform a single molecule localization analysis of rhodopsin in the inner segments of mouse rods. We found that a significant fraction of rhodopsin molecules was localized at the plasma membrane, at the surface, in an even distribution along the entire length of the inner segment, where markers of transport vesicles also colocalized. Thus, our results collectively establish a model of rhodopsin trafficking through the inner segment plasma membrane as an essential subcellular pathway in mouse rod photoreceptors.

Abstract
Recently, we demonstrated that the corpora amylacea (CA), a glycoprotein-rich aggregate frequently found in aged brains, accumulates in the ischemic hippocampus and that osteopontin (OPN) mediates the entire process of CA formation. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms by which astrocytes and microglia participate in CA formation during the late phase (4-12 weeks) of brain ischemia. Based on various morphological analyses, including immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, immunoelectron microscopy, and correlative light and electron microscopy, we propose that astrocytes are the primary cells responsible for CA formation after ischemia. During the subacute phase after ischemia, astrocytes, rather than microglia, express Opn messenger ribonucleic acid and OPN protein, a surrogate marker and key component of CA. Furthermore, the specific localization of OPN in the Golgi complex suggests that it is synthesized and secreted by astrocytes. Astrocytes were in close proximity to type I OPN deposits, which accumulated in the mitochondria of degenerating neurons before fully forming the CA (type III OPN deposits). Throughout CA formation, astrocytes remained closely attached to OPN deposits, with their processes exhibiting well-developed gap junctions. Astrocytic cytoplasmic protein S100β, a calcium-binding protein, was detected within the fully formed CA. Additionally, ultrastructural analysis revealed direct contact between astroglial fibrils and the forming facets of the CA. Overall, we demonstrated that astrocytes play a central role in mediating CA formation from the initial stages of OPN deposit accumulation to the evolution of fully formed CA following transient ischemia in the hippocampus.

Abstract
The discovery of a new neurotransmitter, especially one in the central nervous system, is both important and difficult. We have been searching for new neurotransmitters for 12 y. We detected creatine (Cr) in synaptic vesicles (SVs) at a level lower than glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid but higher than acetylcholine and 5-hydroxytryptamine. SV Cr was reduced in mice lacking either arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (a Cr synthetase) or SLC6A8, a Cr transporter with mutations among the most common causes of intellectual disability in men. Calcium-dependent release of Cr was detected after stimulation in brain slices. Cr release was reduced in Slc6a8 and Agat mutants. Cr inhibited neocortical pyramidal neurons. SLC6A8 was necessary for Cr uptake into synaptosomes. Cr was found by us to be taken up into SVs in an ATP-dependent manner. Our biochemical, chemical, genetic, and electrophysiological results are consistent with the possibility of Cr as a neurotransmitter, though not yet reaching the level of proof for the now classic transmitters. Our novel approach to discover neurotransmitters is to begin with analysis of contents in SVs before defining their function and physiology.

Abstract
Increasing evidence has indicated that the Golgi apparatus (GA) is involved in the development of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Finding effective neuroprotective agents targeting GA has become a priority in the treatment of ischemic stroke. GM130, a key structural protein present on the cis-face of the GA, maintains its structure through its phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. However, the molecular mechanisms by which GM130 regulates IR-induced neuronal apoptosis are not well elucidated. Mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2a (N2A) cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion (OGDR) insult. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were determined using MTT assay, TUNEL staining, and flow cytometry. GA morphology was detected by immunocytochemical staining and immunofluorescence microscopy. GA-related protein and mRNA levels were detected by WB and qPCR, respectively. Treatment with Purvalanol A, an effective Cdk1 inhibitor, and transfection of Cdk1-shRNA were carried out to inhibit OGDR-induced Cdk1 elevation. The results demonstrated that OGDR induced Golgi fragmentation, neuronal apoptosis, GM130 phosphorylation, and p115 cleavage in N2A cells. Cdk1 elevation after OGDR was closely correlated with GM130 phosphorylation, not p115. Inhibition of Cdk1 significantly attenuated OGDR-induced Golgi fragmentation and cell apoptosis. Cdk1 interacted with GM130 and decreased its phosphorylation on the serine 25 site in N2A cells exposed to OGDR. The present findings reveal that Cdk1 protects against IR-induced GA fragmentation and apoptosis, likely through the mediation of GM130 phosphorylation. This neuroprotective potential of Cdk1 against IR insult and the underlying mechanism will pave the way for potential clinical applications targeting the GA organelle for cerebral IR-related disorders.

Abstract
During the development of the cerebral cortex, N-cadherin plays a crucial role in facilitating radial migration by enabling cell-to-cell adhesion between migrating neurons and radial glial fibers or Cajar-Reztius cells. ADP ribosylation factor 4 (Arf4) and Arf5, which belong to the Class II Arf small GTPase subfamily, control membrane trafficking in the endocytic and secretory pathways. However, their specific contribution to cerebral cortex development remains unclear. In this study, we sought to investigate the functional involvement of Class II Arfs in radial migration during the layer formation of the cerebral cortex using mouse embryos and pups. Our findings indicate that knock-down of Arf4, but not Arf5, resulted in the stalling of transfected neurons with disorientation of the Golgi in the upper intermediate zone (IZ) and reduction in the migration speed in both the IZ and cortical plate (CP). Migrating neurons with Arf4 knock-down exhibited cytoplasmic accumulation of N-cadherin, along with disturbed organelle morphology and distribution. Furthermore, supplementation of exogenous N-cadherin partially rescued the migration defect caused by Arf4 knock-down. In conclusion, our results suggest that Arf4 plays a crucial role in regulating radial migration via N-cadherin trafficking during cerebral cortical development.

Abstract
Dendrites are specialized neuronal compartments that sense, integrate and transfer information in the neural network. Their development is tightly controlled and abnormal dendrite morphogenesis is strongly linked to neurological disorders. While dendritic morphology ranges from relatively simple to extremely complex for a specified neuron, either requires a functional secretory pathway to continually replenish proteins and lipids to meet dendritic growth demands. The Golgi apparatus occupies the center of the secretory pathway and is regulating posttranslational modifications, sorting, transport, and signal transduction, as well as acting as a non-centrosomal microtubule organization center. The neuronal Golgi apparatus shares common features with Golgi in other eukaryotic cell types but also forms distinct structures known as Golgi outposts that specifically localize in dendrites. However, the organization and function of Golgi in dendrite development and its impact on neurological disorders is just emerging and so far lacks a systematic summary. We describe the organization of the Golgi apparatus in neurons, review the current understanding of Golgi function in dendritic morphogenesis, and discuss the current challenges and future directions.

Abstract
The WD40-repeat containing (WDR) proteins are enriched in the testis and play important roles in spermatogenesis. In the present study, we investigate the expression profile of WDR38, a novel member of the WDR protein family, in humans and mice. RT-qPCR (reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction) results demonstrate that WDR38 mRNA is abundantly expressed in both the human and mouse testis. The expression of mouse Wdr38 is strictly regulated during development. Further immunofluorescence staining results show that WDR38 is located in the equatorial segment of the acrosome in human and mouse mature spermatozoa and is involved in acrosome biogenesis. Subcellular localization analysis reveals that the mouse Wdr38 protein is distributed in the perinuclear cytoplasm of transfected cells and colocalizes with the GTPase protein Rab19 and Golgi protein GM130. Coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) assays demonstrate that Wdr38, Rab19 and GM130 interact with each other in the mouse testis and in HEK293T cells. In acrosome biogenesis, Wdr38, Rab19 and GM130 aggregate at the nuclear membrane to form large vesicles, and GM130 then detaches and moves towards the caudal region of the nucleus, whereas the Wdr38/Rab19 complex spreads along the dorsal nuclear edge and finally docks to the equatorial segment. These results indicate that WDR38 is a novel equatorial segment protein that interacts with the GTPase protein RAB19 and Golgi protein GM130 to play roles in acrosome biogenesis.

[PMID: 37683644 PMCID: PMC10656303 DOI: 10.1016/j.stemcr.2023.08.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 08/10/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The maintenance of germline stem cells (GSCs) is essential for tissue homeostasis. JAK/STAT signaling maintains GSC fate in Drosophila testis. However, how JAK/STAT signaling maintains male GSC fate through its downstream targets remains poorly understood. Here, we identify p115, a tER/cis-Golgi golgin protein, as a putative downstream target of JAK/STAT signaling. p115 maintains GSC fate independent of GM130 and GRASP65. p115 localizes in cytosol, the ER and Golgi apparatus in germline cells and is required for the morphology of the ER and Golgi apparatus. Furthermore, depletion of p115 in GSCs results in aberrant spindle orientation. Mechanistically, p115 associates with and stabilizes STAT. Finally, ectopic expression of STAT completely restores GSC loss caused by p115 depletion. Collectively, JAK/STAT signaling and p115 form a feedforward loop to maintain male GSC fate. Our work provides new insights into the regulatory mechanism of how stem cell maintenance is properly controlled by JAK/STAT signaling.

Abstract
This article critically evaluates the multifunctional role of the Golgi apparatus within neurological paradigms. We succinctly highlight its influence on neuronal plasticity, development, and the vital trafficking and sorting mechanisms for proteins and lipids. The discourse further navigates to its regulatory prominence in neurogenesis and its implications in Alzheimer's Disease pathogenesis. The emerging nexus between the Golgi apparatus and SARS-CoV-2 underscores its potential in viral replication processes. This consolidation accentuates the Golgi apparatus's centrality in neurobiology and its intersections with both neurodegenerative and viral pathologies. In essence, understanding the Golgi's multifaceted functions harbors profound implications for future therapeutic innovations in neurological and viral afflictions.

Abstract
Interest in MHC-E-restricted CD8+ T cell responses has been aroused by the discovery of their efficacy in controlling simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection in a vaccine model. The development of vaccines and immunotherapies utilizing human MHC-E (HLA-E)-restricted CD8+ T cell response requires an understanding of the pathway(s) of HLA-E transport and antigen presentation, which have not been clearly defined previously. We show here that, unlike classical HLA class I, which rapidly exits the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) after synthesis, HLA-E is largely retained because of a limited supply of high-affinity peptides, with further fine-tuning by its cytoplasmic tail. Once at the cell surface, HLA-E is unstable and is rapidly internalized. The cytoplasmic tail plays a crucial role in facilitating HLA-E internalization, which results in its enrichment in late and recycling endosomes. Our data reveal distinctive transport patterns and delicate regulatory mechanisms of HLA-E, which help to explain its unusual immunological functions.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus plays a central role in protein sorting, modification and trafficking within cells; its dysregulation has been implicated in various cancers including those affecting the GI tract. This review highlights two Golgi target proteins, namely GOLPH3 and GOLGA proteins, from this apparatus as they relate to gastroenterological cancers. GOLPH3-a highly conserved protein of the trans-Golgi network-has become a key player in cancer biology. Abnormal expression of GOLPH3 has been detected in various gastrointestinal cancers including gastric, colorectal and pancreatic cancers. GOLPH3 promotes tumor cell proliferation, survival, migration and invasion via various mechanisms including activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway as well as altering Golgi morphology and vesicular trafficking. GOLGA family proteins such as GOLGA1 (golgin-97) and GOLGA7 (golgin-84) have also been implicated in gastroenterological cancers. GOLGA1 plays an essential role in protein trafficking within the Golgi apparatus and has been associated with poor patient survival rates and increased invasiveness; GOLGA7 maintains Golgi structure while having been shown to affect protein glycosylation processes. GOLPH3 and GOLGA proteins play a pivotal role in gastroenterological cancer, helping researchers unlock molecular mechanisms and identify therapeutic targets. Their dysregulation affects various cellular processes including signal transduction, vesicular trafficking and protein glycosylation, all contributing to tumor aggressiveness and progression.

Abstract
Plasmalogen is a major phospholipid of mammalian cell membranes. Recently it is becoming evident that the sn-1 vinyl-ether linkage in plasmalogen, contrasting to the ester linkage in the counterpart diacyl glycerophospholipid, yields differential molecular characteristics for these lipids especially related to hydrocarbon-chain order, so as to concertedly regulate biological membrane processes. A role played by NMR in gaining information in this respect, ranging from molecular to tissue levels, draws particular attention. We note here that a broad range of enzymes in de novo synthesis pathway of plasmalogen commonly constitute that of diacyl glycerophospholipid. This fact forms the basis for systematic crosstalk that not only controls a quantitative balance between these lipids, but also senses a defect causing loss of lipid in either pathway for compensation by increase of the counterpart lipid. However, this inherent counterbalancing mechanism paradoxically amplifies imbalance in differential effects of these lipids in a diseased state on membrane processes. While sharing of enzymes has been recognized, it is now possible to overview the crosstalk with growing information for specific enzymes involved. The overview provides a fundamental clue to consider cell and tissue type-dependent schemes in regulating membrane processes by plasmalogen and diacyl glycerophospholipid in health and disease.

The crescent-like Golgi ribbon is shaped by the Ajuba/PRMT5/Aurora-A complex-modified HURP. Cell Commun Signal 2023; 21:156.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Golgi apparatus (GA) is assembled as a crescent-like ribbon in mammalian cells under immunofluorescence microscope without knowing the shaping mechanisms. It is estimated that roughly 1/5 of the genes encoding kinases or phosphatases in human genome participate in the assembly of Golgi ribbon, reflecting protein modifications play major roles in building Golgi ribbon. METHODS To explore how Golgi ribbon is shaped as a crescent-like structure under the guidance of protein modifications, we identified a protein complex containing the scaffold proteins Ajuba, two known GA regulators including the protein kinase Aurora-A and the protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT5, and the common substrate of Aurora-A and PRMT5, HURP. Mutual modifications and activation of PRMT5 and Aurora-A in the complex leads to methylation and in turn phosphorylation of HURP, thereby producing HURP p725. The HURP p725 localizes to GA vicinity and its distribution pattern looks like GA morphology. Correlation study of the HURP p725 statuses and GA structure, site-directed mutagenesis and knockdown-rescue experiments were employed to identify the modified HURP as a key regulator assembling GA as a crescent ribbon. RESULTS The cells containing no or extended distribution of HURP p725 have dispersed GA membranes or longer GA. Knockdown of HURP fragmentized GA and HURP wild type could, while its phosphorylation deficiency mutant 725A could not, restore crescent Golgi ribbon in HURP depleted cells, collectively indicating a crescent GA-constructing activity of HURP p725. HURP p725 is transported, by GA membrane-associated ARF1, Dynein and its cargo adaptor Golgin-160, to cell center where HURP p725 forms crescent fibers, binds and stabilizes Golgi assembly factors (GAFs) including TRIP11, GRASP65 and GM130, thereby dictating the formation of crescent Golgi ribbon at nuclear periphery. CONCLUSIONS The Ajuba/PRMT5/Aurora-A complex integrates the signals of protein methylation and phosphorylation to HURP, and the HURP p725 organizes GA by stabilizing and recruiting GAFs to its crescent-like structure, therefore shaping GA as a crescent ribbon. Therefore, the HURP p725 fiber serves a template to construct GA according to its shape. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Interferon-induced transmembrane proteins (IFITMs) block the fusion of diverse enveloped viruses, likely through increasing the cell membrane's rigidity. Previous studies have reported that the antiviral activity of the IFITM family member, IFITM3, is antagonized by cell pretreatment with rapamycin derivatives and cyclosporines A and H (CsA and CsH) that promote the degradation of IFITM3. Here, we show that CsA and CsH potently enhance virus fusion with IFITM1- and IFITM3-expressing cells by inducing their rapid relocalization from the plasma membrane and endosomes, respectively, towards the Golgi. This relocalization is not associated with a significant degradation of IFITMs. Although prolonged exposure to CsA induces IFITM3 degradation in cells expressing low endogenous levels of this protein, its levels remain largely unchanged in interferon-treated cells or cells ectopically expressing IFITM3. Importantly, the CsA-mediated redistribution of IFITMs to the Golgi occurs on a much shorter time scale than degradation and thus likely represents the primary mechanism of enhancement of virus entry. We further show that rapamycin also induces IFITM relocalization toward the Golgi, albeit less efficiently than cyclosporines. Our findings highlight the importance of regulation of IFITM trafficking for its antiviral activity and reveal a novel mechanism of the cyclosporine-mediated modulation of cell susceptibility to enveloped virus infection.

Abstract
GM130 is a matrix protein that is conserved in metazoans and involved in the architecture of the Golgi apparatus. In neurons, Golgi apparatus and dendritic Golgi outposts (GOs) have different compartmental organizations, and GM130 localization is present in both, indicating that GM130 has a unique Golgi-targeting mechanism. Here, we investigated the Golgi-targeting mechanism of the GM130 homologue, dGM130, using in vivo imaging of Drosophila dendritic arborization (da) neurons. The results showed that two independent Golgi-targeting domains (GTDs) with different Golgi localization characteristics in dGM130, together determined the precise localization of dGM130 in both the soma and dendrites. GTD1, covering the first coiled-coil region, preferentially targeted to somal Golgi rather than GOs; whereas GTD2, containing the second coiled-coil region and C-terminus, dynamically targeted to Golgi in both soma and dendrites. These findings suggest that there are two distinct mechanisms by which dGM130 targets to the Golgi apparatus and GOs, underlying the structural differences between them, and further provides new insights into the formation of neuronal polarity.

Abstract
Photoreceptor cells in the vertebrate retina have a highly compartmentalized morphology for efficient long-term phototransduction. Rhodopsin, the visual pigment in rod photoreceptors, is densely packaged into the rod outer segment sensory cilium and continuously renewed through essential synthesis and trafficking pathways housed in the rod inner segment. Despite the importance of this region for rod health and maintenance, the subcellular organization of rhodopsin and its trafficking regulators in the mammalian rod inner segment remain undefined. We used super-resolution fluorescence microscopy with optimized retinal immunolabeling techniques to perform a single molecule localization analysis of rhodopsin in the inner segments of mouse rods. We found that a significant fraction of rhodopsin molecules was localized at the plasma membrane in an even distribution along the entire length of the inner segment, where markers of transport vesicles also colocalized. Thus, our results collectively establish a model of rhodopsin trafficking through the inner segment plasma membrane as an essential subcellular pathway in mouse rod photoreceptors.

Abstract
Lanthanum (La) is a natural rare-earth element that can damage the central nervous system and impair learning and memory. However, its neurotoxic mechanism remains unclear. In this study, adult female rats were divided into 4 groups and given distilled water solution containing 0%, 0.125%, 0.25%, and 0.5% LaCl3, respectively, and this was done from conception to the end of the location. Their offspring rats were used to establish animal models to investigate LaCl3 neurotoxicity. Primary neurons cultured in vitro were treated with LaCl3 and infected with LKB1 overexpression lentivirus. The results showed that LaCl3 exposure resulted in abnormal axons in the hippocampus and primary cultured neurons. LaCl3 reduced the expression of LKB1, p-LKB1, STRAD and MO25 proteins, and directly or indirectly affected the expression of LKB1, leading to decreased activity of LKB1-MARK2 and LKB1-STK25-GM130 pathways. This study indicated that LaCl3 exposure could interfere with the normal effects of LKB1 in the brain and downregulate LKB1-MARK2 and LKB1-STK25-GM130 signaling pathways, resulting in abnormal axon in offspring rats.

The small molecule inhibitor NAV-2729 has a complex target profile including multiple ADP-ribosylation factor regulatory proteins. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:102992.

Abstract
The ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) GTPases and their regulatory proteins are implicated in cancer progression. NAV-2729 was previously identified as a specific inhibitor of Arf6 that reduced progression of uveal melanoma in an orthotopic xenograft. Here, our goal was to assess the inhibitory effects of NAV-2729 on the proliferation of additional cell types. We found NAV-2729 inhibited proliferation of multiple cell lines, but Arf6 expression did not correlate with NAV-2729 sensitivity, and knockdown of Arf6 affected neither cell viability nor sensitivity to NAV-2729. Furthermore, binding to native Arf6 was not detected; however, we determined that NAV-2729 inhibited both Arf exchange factors and Arf GTPase-activating proteins. ASAP1, a GTPase-activating protein linked to cancer progression, was further investigated. We demonstrated that NAV-2729 bound to the PH domain of ASAP1 and changed ASAP1 cellular distribution. However, ASAP1 knockdown did not fully recapitulate the cytoskeletal effects of NAV-2729 nor affect cell proliferation. Finally, our screens identified 48 other possible targets of NAV-2729. These results illustrate the complexities of defining targets of small molecules and identify NAV-2729 as a model PH domain-binding inhibitor.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is the major sorting hub in the secretory pathway and particularly important for protein sorting in neurons. Knowledge about protein localization in Golgi compartments is largely based on work in cell lines. Here, we systematically compared protein localization of 21 endogenous proteins in the Golgi apparatus of mouse neurons using confocal microscopy and line scan analysis. We localized these proteins by measuring the distance relative to the canonical TGN marker TGN38. Based on this, proteins fell into three groups: upstream of, overlapping with or downstream of TGN38. Seven proteins showed complete overlap with TGN38, while proteins downstream of TGN38 were located at varying distances from TGN38. Proteins upstream of TGN38 were localized in between TGN38 and the cis-/medial Golgi markers Giantin and GM130. This localization was consistent with protein function. Our data provide an overview of the relative localization of endogenous proteins in the Golgi of primary mouse neurons.

Abstract
Glucose stimulation induces the remodeling of microtubules, which potentiates insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells. CAMSAP2 binds to microtubule minus ends to stabilize microtubules in several cultured clonal cells. Here, we report that the knockdown of CAMSAP2 in primary β-cells reduces total insulin content and attenuates GSIS without affecting the releasability of insulin vesicles. Surprisingly, CAMSAP2 knockdown does not change microtubule stability. Unlike in cultured insulinoma cells, CAMSAP2 in primary β-cells predominantly localizes to the Golgi apparatus instead of microtubule minus ends. This novel localization is specific to primary β- but not α-cells and is independent of microtubule binding. Consistent with its specific localization at the Golgi, CAMSAP2 promotes efficient Golgi-ER trafficking in primary β-cells. Moreover, primary β-cells and insulinoma cells likely express different CAMSAP2 isoforms. We propose that a novel CAMSAP2 isoform in primary β-cells has a non-canonical function, which promotes Golgi-ER trafficking to support efficient production of insulin and secretion.

Abstract
The mechanisms of coordinated changes in proteome composition and their relevance for the differentiation of neutrophil granulocytes are not well studied. Here, we discover 2 novel human genetic defects in signal recognition particle receptor alpha (SRPRA) and SRP19, constituents of the mammalian cotranslational targeting machinery, and characterize their roles in neutrophil granulocyte differentiation. We systematically study the proteome of neutrophil granulocytes from patients with variants in the SRP genes, HAX1, and ELANE, and identify global as well as specific proteome aberrations. Using in vitro differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells and in vivo zebrafish models, we study the effects of SRP deficiency on neutrophil granulocyte development. In a heterologous cell-based inducible protein expression system, we validate the effects conferred by SRP dysfunction for selected proteins that we identified in our proteome screen. Thus, SRP-dependent protein processing, intracellular trafficking, and homeostasis are critically important for the differentiation of neutrophil granulocytes.

Intracellular sites of AQP2 S256 phosphorylation identified using inhibitors of the AQP2 recycling itinerary. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 2023; 324:F152-F167.

Abstract
Vasopressin (VP)-regulated aquaporin-2 (AQP2) trafficking between cytoplasmic vesicles and the plasma membrane of kidney principal cells is essential for water homeostasis. VP affects AQP2 phosphorylation at several serine residues in the COOH-terminus; among them, serine 256 (S256) appears to be a major regulator of AQP2 trafficking. Mutation of this serine to aspartic acid, which mimics phosphorylation, induces constitutive membrane expression of AQP2. However, the intracellular location(s) at which S256 phosphorylation occurs remains elusive. Here, we used strategies to block AQP2 trafficking at different cellular locations in LLC-PK1 cells and monitored VP-stimulated phosphorylation of S256 at these sites by immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis with phospho-specific antibodies. Using methyl-β-cyclodextrin, cold block or bafilomycin, and taxol, we blocked AQP2 at the plasma membrane, in the perinuclear trans-Golgi network, and in scattered cytoplasmic vesicles, respectively. Regardless of its cellular location, VP induced a significant increase in S256 phosphorylation, and this effect was not dependent on a functional microtubule cytoskeleton. To further investigate whether protein kinase A (PKA) was responsible for S256 phosphorylation in these cellular compartments, we created PKA-null cells and blocked AQP2 trafficking using the same procedures. We found that S256 phosphorylation was no longer increased compared with baseline, regardless of AQP2 localization. Taken together, our data indicate that AQP2 S256 phosphorylation can occur at the plasma membrane, in the trans-Golgi network, or in cytoplasmic vesicles and that this event is dependent on the expression of PKA in these cells.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Phosphorylation of aquaporin-2 by PKA at serine 256 (S256) occurs in various subcellular locations during its recycling itinerary, suggesting that the protein complex necessary for AQP2 S256 phosphorylation is present in these different recycling stations. Furthermore, we showed, using PKA-null cells, that PKA activity is required for vasopressin-induced AQP2 phosphorylation. Our data reveal a complex spatial pattern of intracellular AQP2 phosphorylation at S256, shedding new light on the role of phosphorylation in AQP2 membrane accumulation.

Abstract
In the developing cortex, excitatory neurons migrate along the radial fibers to their final destinations and build up synaptic connection with each other to form functional circuitry. The shaping of neuronal morphologies by actin cytoskeleton dynamics is crucial for neuronal migration. However, it is largely unknown how the distribution and assembly of the F-actin cytoskeleton are coordinated. In the present study, we found that an actin regulatory protein, coronin 2B, is indispensable for the transition from a multipolar to bipolar morphology during neuronal migration in ICR mice of either sex. Loss of coronin 2B led to heterotopic accumulation of migrating neurons in the intermediate zone along with reduced dendritic complexity and aberrant neuronal activity in the cortical plate. This was accompanied by increased seizure susceptibility, suggesting the malfunction of cortical development in coronin 2B-deficient brains. Coronin 2B knockdown disrupted the distribution of the F-actin cytoskeleton at the leading processes, while the migration defect in coronin 2B-deficient neurons was partially rescued by overexpression of Rac1 and its downstream actin-severing protein, cofilin. Our results collectively reveal the physiological function of coronin 2B during neuronal migration whereby it maintains the proper distribution of activated Rac1 and the F-actin cytoskeleton.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Deficits in neuronal migration during cortical development result in various neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., focal cortical dysplasia, periventricular heterotopia, epilepsy, etc.). Most signaling pathways that control neuronal migration process converge to regulate actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Therefore, it is important to understand how actin dynamics is coordinated in the critical processes of neuronal migration. Herein, we report that coronin 2B is a key protein that regulates neuronal migration through its ability to control the distribution of the actin cytoskeleton and its regulatory signaling protein Rac1 during the multipolar-bipolar transition in the intermediate zone, providing insights into the molecular machinery that drives the migration process of newborn neurons.

Abstract
Proteins of the secretory pathway undergo glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. Altered protein glycosylation can manifest in serious, sometimes fatal malfunctions. We recently showed that mutations in GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase A (GMPPA) can cause a syndrome characterized by alacrima, achalasia, mental retardation, and myopathic alterations (AAMR syndrome). GMPPA acts as a feedback inhibitor of GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase B (GMPPB), which provides GDP-mannose as a substrate for protein glycosylation. Loss of GMPPA thus enhances the incorporation of mannose into glycochains of various proteins, including α-dystroglycan (α-DG), a protein that links the extracellular matrix with the cytoskeleton. Here, we further characterized the consequences of loss of GMPPA for the secretory pathway. This includes a fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus, which comes along with a regulation of the abundance of several ER- and Golgi-resident proteins. We further show that the activity of the Golgi-associated endoprotease furin is reduced. Moreover, the fraction of α-DG, which is retained in the ER, is increased. Notably, WT cells cultured at a high mannose concentration display similar changes with increased retention of α-DG, altered structure of the Golgi apparatus, and a decrease in furin activity. In summary, our data underline the importance of a balanced mannose homeostasis for the secretory pathway.

Abstract
The Golgi is the central organelle in the secretory pathway, essential for post-translational modifications, sorting and trafficking of secretory and membrane proteins and lipids in all eukaryotic cells. During mitosis, the mammalian Golgi membranes undergo continuous disassembly and reassembly processes which are critical for Golgi biogenesis during the cell division. To better understand the underlying molecular mechanism of this highly dynamic process, we analyzed the proteins that are in or associated with interphase and mitotic Golgi membranes using an in vitro Golgi assembly assay and quantitative proteomics. In this study, by combining an isobaric mass tag labeling strategy with OFFGEL peptide fractionation, LC-MS/MS analyses identified and quantified a total of 1193 Golgi-resident or -associated proteins. These proteins included Golgi structural proteins, Golgi-resident enzymes, Rab GTPases, and SNARE proteins. This systematic quantitative proteomic study revealed the comprehensive molecular machinery of the Golgi and the dynamic protein changes in its disassembly and reassembly processes. Here we describe the detailed procedures and protocols for this analysis.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is a common and highly dynamic organelle in eukaryotic cells. It plays an important role in secretory trafficking and cargo modifications. Increasing evidence suggests that structural changes and functional disorders of the Golgi apparatus are involved in many human diseases, but whether Golgi dysfunction is a causal factor in regard to the progression of these diseases remains unknown. GM130 has been postulated to play roles in Golgi stack formation and vesicular transport based on studies on cultured cells and in vitro reconstitutions. To define the role of GM130 in animal, a GM130 knockout mouse has recently been created. Based on the principle of homologous recombination, the GM130 conditional knockout mouse model was established through gene targeting, stem cell screening, and blastocyst injection. Such model has been successfully applied for studies of physiological functions of GM130 and Golgi apparatus at the cellular and animal levels.

Abstract
Numerous Golgi-resident enzymes implicated in glycosylation are regulated by the conserved intramembrane protease SPPL3. SPPL3-catalyzed endoproteolysis separates Golgi enzymes from their membrane anchors, enabling subsequent release from the Golgi and secretion. Experimentally altered SPPL3 expression changes glycosylation patterns, yet the regulation of SPPL3-mediated Golgi enzyme cleavage is not understood and conflicting results regarding the subcellular localization of SPPL3 have been reported. Here, we used precise genome editing to generate isogenic cell lines expressing N- or C-terminally tagged SPPL3 from its endogenous locus. Using these cells, we conducted co-localization analyses of tagged endogenous SPPL3 and Golgi markers under steady-state conditions and upon treatment with drugs disrupting Golgi organization. Our data demonstrate that endogenous SPPL3 is Golgi-resident and found predominantly in the mid-Golgi. We find that endogenous SPPL3 co-localizes with its substrates but similarly with non-substrate type II proteins, demonstrating that in addition to co-localization in the Golgi other substrate-intrinsic properties govern SPPL3-mediated intramembrane proteolysis. Given the prevalence of SPPL3-mediated cleavage among Golgi-resident proteins our results have important implications for the regulation of SPPL3 and its role in the organization of the Golgi glycosylation machinery.

Dysbindin-1A modulation of astrocytic dopamine and basal ganglia dependent behaviors relevant to schizophrenia. Mol Psychiatry 2022; 27:4201-4217.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying the dichotomic cortical/basal ganglia dopaminergic abnormalities in schizophrenia are unclear. Astrocytes are important non-neuronal modulators of brain circuits, but their role in dopaminergic system remains poorly explored. Microarray analyses, immunohistochemistry, and two-photon laser scanning microscopy revealed that Dys1 hypofunction increases the reactivity of astrocytes, which express only the Dys1A isoform. Notably, behavioral and electrochemical assessments in mice selectively lacking the Dys1A isoform unraveled a more prominent impact of Dys1A in behavioral and dopaminergic/D2 alterations related to basal ganglia, but not cortical functioning. Ex vivo electron microscopy and protein expression analyses indicated that selective Dys1A disruption might alter intracellular trafficking in astrocytes, but not in neurons. In agreement, Dys1A disruption only in astrocytes resulted in decreased motivation and sensorimotor gating deficits, increased astrocytic dopamine D2 receptors and decreased dopaminergic tone within basal ganglia. These processes might have clinical relevance because the caudate, but not the cortex, of patients with schizophrenia shows a reduction of the Dys1A isoform. Therefore, we started to show a hitherto unknown role for the Dys1A isoform in astrocytic-related modulation of basal ganglia behavioral and dopaminergic phenotypes, with relevance to schizophrenia.

Abstract
Prior work has identified signal sequences and motifs that are necessary and sufficient to target proteins to specific subcellular regions and organelles such as the plasma membrane, nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. In contrast, minimal sequence motifs that are sufficient for Golgi localization remain largely elusive. In this work, we identified a 37-amino acid alternative open reading frame (altORF) within the mRNA of the centromere protein CENP-R. This altORF peptide localizes specifically to the cytoplasmic surface of the Golgi apparatus. Through mutational analysis, we identify a minimal 10-amino acid sequence and a critical cysteine residue that are necessary and sufficient for Golgi localization. Pharmacological perturbations suggest that this peptide undergoes lipid modification to promote its localization. Together, our work defines a minimal sequence that is sufficient for Golgi targeting and provide a valuable Golgi marker for live cell imaging.

Abstract
Hibernation in small mammals is a highly regulated process with periods of torpor involving drops in body temperature and metabolic rate, as well as a general decrease in neural activity, all of which proceed alongside complex brain adaptive changes that appear to protect the brain from extreme hypoxia and low temperatures. All these changes are rapidly reversed, with no apparent brain damage occurring, during the short periods of arousal, interspersed during torpor—characterized by transitory and partial rewarming and activity, including sleep activation, and feeding in some species. The orexins are neuropeptides synthesized in hypothalamic neurons that project to multiple brain regions and are known to participate in the regulation of a variety of processes including feeding behavior, the sleep-wake cycle, and autonomic functions such as brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. Using multiple immunohistochemical techniques and quantitative analysis, we have characterized the orexinergic system in the brain of the Syrian hamster—a facultative hibernator. Our results revealed that orexinergic neurons in this species consisted of a neuronal population restricted to the lateral hypothalamic area, whereas orexinergic fibers distribute throughout the rostrocaudal extent of the brain, particularly innervating catecholaminergic and serotonergic neuronal populations. We characterized the changes of orexinergic cells in the different phases of hibernation based on the intensity of immunostaining for the neuronal activity marker C-Fos and orexin A (OXA). During torpor, we found an increase in C-Fos immunostaining intensity in orexinergic neurons, accompanied by a decrease in OXA immunostaining. These changes were accompanied by a volume reduction and a fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus (GA) as well as a decrease in the colocalization of OXA and the GA marker GM-130. Importantly, during arousal, C-Fos and OXA expression in orexinergic neurons was highest and the structural appearance and the volume of the GA along with the colocalization of OXA/GM-130 reverted to euthermic levels. We discuss the involvement of orexinergic cells in the regulation of mammalian hibernation and, in particular, the possibility that the high activation of orexinergic cells during the arousal stage guides the rewarming as well as the feeding and sleep behaviors characteristic of this phase.
