Abstract
The trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes are essential protein sorting stations in the secretory transport pathway. Protein sorting is fundamentally a process of spatial segregation, but the spatial relationships among the proteins that constitute the sorting machinery have not been systematically analyzed at high resolution in mammalian cells. Here, using two-color STORM imaging, we show that the TGN/endosome-localized cargo adaptors, AP-1, GGA2 and epsinR, form elongated structures of over 250 nm in length at the juxta-nuclear Golgi area. Many of these structures are associated with clathrin. We found that AP-1 is spatially segregated from AP-3 and GGA2, whereas a fraction of AP-1 and GGA2 punctae are associated with epsinR. Moreover, we observed that the planar cell polarity cargo proteins, Vangl2 and Frizzled6 associate with different cargo adaptors—AP-1 and GGA2 or epsinR, respectively—when exiting the TGN. Knockdown analysis confirms the functional significance of this segregation. Our data indicates that TGN/endosome-localized cargo adaptors have distinct spatial relationships. The spatially segregated cargo adaptors GGA2 and AP-1 regulate sorting of Frizzled6 and Vangl2, respectively and spatially associated cargo adaptors can cooperatively regulate a specific sorting process.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has indicated a role for autophagy-related (Atgs) proteins in cell regulation which is independent of their autophagic activities. As the only known transmembrane protein essential for autophagy, Atg9 cycles between the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and endosomes. Here, we report a function for mammalian Atg9 (mAtg9) in the transport of lysosomal hydrolases which impacts the lysosomal degradation capacity. Depletion of mAtg9 inhibits the degradation of epidermal growth factor receptor and the maturation of cathepsin D and cathepsin L. mAtg9 interacts with adaptor protein-1 (AP1) and the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor, facilitating AP1 polymerization and the transport of cathepsin D from the TGN. These results suggest that mAtg9 may serve as a coreceptor of lysosomal hydrolases for their TGN export by cycling between the TGN and endosomes.

Abstract
AP-1 is a clathrin adaptor recruited to the trans-Golgi Network where it can interact with specific signals found in the cytosolic tail of cargo proteins to incorporate them into clathrin-coated vesicles for trafficking. The small G protein Arf1 regulates the spatiotemporal recruitment of AP-1 and also drives a conformational change favoring an interaction with cargo proteins. A recent crystal structure and in vitro experiments highlighted potential residues mediating the AP-1/Arf1 interaction and the unlocking of the complex. We have used bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) to study the Arf1/AP-1 interaction and AP-1 conformational changes in vivo. We identified novel residues required for this interaction in addition to those predicted in the crystal structure. We also studied the conformational changes in AP-1 driven by Arf1 in live cells and found that opening of the complex is prerequisite for oligomerization. Using Arf1 knockout cells generated by CRISPR/Cas9, we demonstrated that residue 172 in Arf1 is necessary for AP-1 activation and is required for the efficient sorting of the lysosomal protein prosaposin. We have used BRET to study the in vivo activation of AP-1. The advantages of BRET include expressing full-length proteins in their native environment that have been fully post-translationally modified.

Abstract
Intracellular transport within the cell is generally mediated by membrane vesicles. Their formation is typically initiated by activation of small GTPases that then recruit cytosolic proteins to the membrane surface to form a coat, interact with cargo and accessory proteins, and deform the lipid bilayer to produce a transport vesicle. Liposomes proved to be a useful tool to study the molecular mechanisms of these processes in vitro. Here we describe the use of liposomes and peptidoliposomes presenting lipid-coupled cytosolic tails of cargo proteins for the in vitro analysis of the membrane recruitment of AP-1 adaptors in the process of forming AP-1/clathrin coats. AP-1 recruitment is mediated by the GTPase Arf1 and requires specific lipids and cargo signals. Interaction with cargo induces AP-1 oligomerization already in the absence of clathrin. Without cargo peptides, accessory proteins, such as amphiphysin 2, can be identified that stabilize AP-1 binding to liposomal membranes.

Abstract
The assembly of clathrin/AP (adaptor protein)-1-coated vesicles on the trans-Golgi network and endosomes is much less studied than that of clathrin/AP-2 vesicles at the plasma membrane for endocytosis. In vitro, the association of AP-1 with protein-free liposomes had been shown to require phosphoinositides, Arf1 (ADP-ribosylation factor 1)–GTP and additional cytosolic factor(s). We have purified an active fraction from brain cytosol and found it to contain amphiphysin 1 and 2 and endophilin A1, three proteins known to be involved in the formation of AP-2/clathrin coats at the plasma membrane. Assays with bacterially expressed and purified proteins showed that AP-1 stabilization on liposomes depends on amphiphysin 2 or the amphiphysin 1/2 heterodimer. Activity is independent of the SH3 (Src homology 3) domain, but requires interaction of the WDLW motif with γ-adaptin. Endogenous amphiphysin in neurons and transfected protein in cell lines co-localize perinuclearly with AP-1 at the trans-Golgi network. This localization depends on interaction of clathrin and the adaptor sequence in the amphiphysins and is sensitive to brefeldin A, which inhibits Arf1-dependent AP-1 recruitment. Interaction between AP-1 and amphiphysin 1/2 in vivo was demonstrated by co-immunoprecipitation after cross-linking. These results suggest an involvement of amphiphysins not only with AP-2 at the plasma membrane, but also in AP-1/clathrin coat formation at the trans-Golgi network.

Abstract
The AP-1 complex recycles between membranes and the cytoplasm and dissociates from membranes during clathrin-coated-vesicle uncoating, but also independent of vesicular transport. The μ1A N-terminal seventy amino acids are involved in regulating AP-1 recycling. In a yeast-2-hybrid library screen we identified the cytoplasmic prolyl-oligopeptidase-like protein PREPL as an interaction partner of this domain. PREPL overexpression leads to reduced AP-1 membrane binding, whereas reduced PREPL expression increases membrane binding and it impairs AP-1 recycling. Altered AP-1 membrane binding in PREPL-deficient cells mirrors the membrane binding of the mutant AP-1* complex, not able to bind PREPL. Colocalisation of PREPL with residual membrane bound AP-1 can be demonstrated. Patient cell lines deficient in PREPL have an expanded TGN, which could be rescued by PREPL expression. These data demonstrate PREPL as an AP-1 effector, which takes part in the regulation of AP-1 membrane binding. PREPL is highly expressed in brain, and at lower levels also in muscle and kidney, and its deficiency causes hypotonia and growth hormone hyposecretion supporting essential PREPL functions in AP-1-dependent secretory pathways

Abstract
The ArfGAPs are a family of proteins containing an ArfGAP catalytic domain that induces the hydrolysis of GTP bound to the small guanine nucleotide binding-protein ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf). Functional models for Arfs, which are regulators of membrane traffic, are based on the idea that guanine nucleotide-binding proteins function as switches: Arf with GTP bound is active and binds to effector proteins; the conversion of GTP to GDP inactivates Arf. The cellular activities of ArfGAPs have been examined primarily as regulatory proteins that inactivate Arf; however, Arf function in membrane traffic does not strictly adhere to the concept of a simple switch, adding complexity to models explaining the role of ArfGAPs. Here, we review the literature addressing the function Arf and ArfGAP1 in COPI mediated transport, focusing on two critical and integrated functions of membrane traffic, cargo sorting and vesicle coat polymerization. We briefly discuss other ArfGAPs that may have similar function in Arf-dependent membrane traffic outside the ER-Golgi.

Abstract
Heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70) is a constitutively expressed molecular chaperone which belongs to the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family. HSC70 shares some of the structural and functional similarity with HSP70. HSC70 also has different properties compared with HSP70 and other heat shock family members. HSC70 performs its full functions by the cooperation of co-chaperones. It interacts with many other molecules as well and regulates various cellular functions. It is also involved in various diseases and may become a biomarker for diagnosis and potential therapeutic targets for design, discovery, and development of novel drugs to treat various diseases. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review on HSC70 from the literatures including the basic general information such as classification, structure and cellular location, genetics and function, as well as its protein association and interaction with other proteins. In addition, we also discussed the relationship of HSC70 and related clinical diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular, neurological, hepatic and many other diseases and possible therapeutic potential and highlight the progress and prospects of research in this field. Understanding the functions of HSC70 and its interaction with other molecules will help us to reveal other novel properties of this protein. Scientists may be able to utilize this protein as a biomarker and therapeutic target to make significant advancement in scientific research and clinical setting in the future.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab7b localizes to late endosomes-lysosomes and to the Golgi, regulating the transport between these two intracellular compartments. We have recently demonstrated that depletion of Rab7b causes missorting of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR), suggesting that Rab7b may control the trafficking of this receptor. Here we further investigated the function of this small GTPase with special attention to its role in the trafficking of sorting receptors and dynamics in living cells. Using endosome-to-Golgi retrieval assays we show that Rab7b is involved not only in CI-MPR transport but also in the MPRs independent pathway. Indeed, we find that it regulates and interacts with sortilin, a mannose 6-phosphate-independent sorting receptor. CI-MPR and sortilin are sorted from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) in tubular structures and the expression of Rab7b mutants or its silencing reduces CI-MPR and sortilin tubulation. In addition, the constitutively active mutant Rab7b Q67L impairs the formation of carriers from TGN. Collectively, our observations show for the first time that Rab7b is required for transport from endosomes to the TGN, not only of the CI-MPR, but also of sortilin, and that alterations in this transport result in impaired carrier formation from TGN.

Abstract
Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite that can damage the human brain and eyes. There are no curative medicines. Herein, we describe our discovery of N-benzoyl-2-hydroxybenzamides as a class of compounds effective in the low nanomolar range against T. gondii in vitro and in vivo. Our lead compound, QQ-437, displays robust activity against the parasite and could be useful as a new scaffold for development of novel and improved inhibitors of T. gondii. Our genome-wide investigations reveal a specific mechanism of resistance to N-benzoyl-2-hydroxybenzamides mediated by adaptin-3β, a large protein from the secretory protein complex. N-Benzoyl-2-hydroxybenzamide-resistant clones have alterations of their secretory pathway, which traffics proteins to micronemes, rhoptries, dense granules, and acidocalcisomes/plant-like vacuole (PLVs). N-Benzoyl-2-hydroxybenzamide treatment also alters micronemes, rhoptries, the contents of dense granules, and, most markedly, acidocalcisomes/PLVs. Furthermore, QQ-437 is active against chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum. Our studies reveal a novel class of compounds that disrupts a unique secretory pathway of T. gondii, with the potential to be used as scaffolds in the search for improved compounds to treat the devastating diseases caused by apicomplexan parasites.

Abstract
Vacuolar sorting receptors, BP80/VSRs, play a critical role in vacuolar trafficking of soluble proteins in plant cells. However, the mechanism of action of BP80 is not well understood. Here, we investigate the action mechanism of AtVSR1, a member of BP80 proteins in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), in vacuolar trafficking. AtVSR1 exists as multiple forms, including a high molecular mass homomeric complex in vivo. Both the transmembrane and carboxyl-terminal cytoplasmic domains of AtVSR1 are necessary for the homomeric interaction. The carboxyl-terminal cytoplasmic domain contains specific sequence information, whereas the transmembrane domain has a structural role in the homomeric interaction. In protoplasts, an AtVSR1 mutant, C2A, that contained alanine substitution of the region involved in the homomeric interaction, was defective in trafficking to the prevacuolar compartment and localized primarily to the trans-Golgi network. In addition, overexpression of C2A, but not wild-type AtVSR1, inhibited trafficking of soluble proteins to the vacuole and caused their secretion into the medium. Furthermore, C2A:hemagglutinin in transgenic plants interfered with the homomeric interaction of endogenous AtVSR1 and inhibited vacuolar trafficking of sporamin:green fluorescent protein. These data suggest that homomeric interaction of AtVSR1 is critical for its function as a vacuolar sorting receptor.

Abstract
Arf GAP2 is one of four Arf GAPs that function in the Golgi apparatus. We characterized the kinetics of Arf GAP2 and its regulation. Purified Arf GAP2 had little activity compared to purified Arf GAP1. Of the potential regulators we examined, coatomer had the greatest effect, stimulating activity one to two orders of magnitude. The effect was biphasic, with half-maximal activation observed at 50 nM coatomer and activation peaking at approximately 150 nM coatomer. Activation by coatomer was greater for Arf GAP2 than has been reported for Arf GAP1. The effects of phosphoinositides and changes in vesicle curvature on GAP activity were small compared to coatomer; however, both increased coatomer-dependent activity. Peptides from p24 cargo proteins increased Arf GAP2 activity by an additional 2- to 4-fold. The effect of cargo peptide was dependent on coatomer. Overexpressing the cargo protein p25 decreased cellular Arf1*GTP levels. The differential sensitivity of Arf GAP1 and Arf GAP2 to coatomer could coordinate their activities. Based on the common regulatory features of Arf GAP1 and 2, we propose a mechanism for cargo selection in which GTP hydrolysis triggered by cargo binding to the coat protein is coupled to coat polymerization.

Abstract
Small G-proteins belonging to the Arf (ADP-ribosylation factor) family serve as regulatory proteins for numerous cellular processes through GTP-dependent recruitment of effector molecules. In the present study we demonstrate that proteins in this family regulate, and are regulated by, membrane curvature. Arf1 and Arf6 were shown to load GTP in a membrane-curvature-dependent manner and stabilize, or further facilitate, changes in membrane curvature through the insertion of an amphipathic helix.

Abstract
Adaptor protein-1 (AP-1) is recruited onto the trans-Golgi network via binding to Arf-1.GTP, cargo-sorting signals and phosphoinositides, where it orchestrates the assembly of clathrin-coated vesicular carriers that transport cargo molecules to endosomes. Here we show that cytosolic AP-1 polymerizes when recruited onto enriched Golgi membranes and liposomes containing covalently attached cargo-sorting signal peptides. Incubation of cytosolic or purified AP-1 with soluble sorting signal peptides also resulted in AP-1 polymerization, showing that Arf-1.GTP and membranes are not required for this process. We propose that cargo-induced polymerization of AP-1 contributes to stabilization of the coat complex in the formation of clathrin-coated buds.

Abstract
Intracellular transport between compartments within the cell is generally mediated by membrane vesicles. Their formation is initiated by activation of small GTPases that then recruit cytosolic proteins to the membrane surface to form a coat, interact with cargo proteins, and deform the lipid bilayer. Liposomes proved to be a useful tool to study the molecular mechanisms of these processes in vitro. To analyze the involvement of membrane proteins, the cytosolically exposed sequences may be coupled chemically to reactive lipids in the membrane. Here we describe the use of such peptidoliposomes presenting lipid-coupled cytosolic tails of cargo proteins for the in vitro analysis of the membrane recruitment of AP-1 adaptors in the process of forming AP-1/clathrin coats. AP-1 recruitment is mediated by the GTPase Arf1, requires specific lipids, and cargo signals. Interaction with cargo induces AP-1 oligomerization already in the absence of clathrin.

In coated vesicle formation, coat protein recruitment needs to be spatially and temporally controlled. The coating process involves conformational changes of the coat protein complexes that activate them for interaction with cargo or machinery components and coat polymerization.

Both proteins interact with the monomeric clathrin adaptor Gga2p, but Ent5p also interacts with the clathrin adaptor protein 1 (AP-1) complex, which facilitates retention of proteins such as Chs3p at the TGN. When both ENT3 and ENT5 are mutated, Chs3p is diverted from an intracellular reservoir to the cell surface. However, Ent3p and Ent5p are not required for the function of AP-1, but rather they seem to act in parallel with AP-1 to retain proteins such as Chs3p at the TGN. They have all the properties of clathrin adaptors, because they can both bind to clathrin and to cargo proteins. Like AP-1, Ent5p binds to Chs3p, whereas Ent3p facilitates the interaction between Gga2p and the endosomal syntaxin Pep12p. Thus, Ent3p has an additional function in Gga-dependent transport to the late endosome. Ent3p also facilitates the association between Gga2p and clathrin; however, Ent5p can partially substitute for this function. We conclude that the clathrin adaptors AP-1, Ent3p, Ent5p, and the Ggas cooperate in different ways to sort proteins between the TGN and the endosomes.

Abstract
COPI-coated vesicles are protein and liquid carriers that mediate transport within the early secretory pathway. In this Topical Review, we present their main protein components and discuss current models for cargo sorting. Finally, we describe the striking similarities that exist between the COPI system and the two other characterized types of vesicular carriers: COPII- and clathrin-coated vesicles.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)] is an important factor for a variety of cellular functions ranging from cell signaling to actin cytoskeletal dynamics and endocytic membrane traffic. Here, we have identified the clathrin adaptor complex AP-2 as a regulator of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIPK)-mediated PI(4,5)P(2) synthesis. AP-2 directly interacts with the kinase core domain of type I PIPK isozymes via its mu2-subunit in vitro and in native protein extracts. Endocytic cargo protein binding to mu2 leads to a potent stimulation of PIPK activity. These data thus identify a positive feedback loop consisting of endocytic cargo proteins, AP-2mu, and PIPK type I which may provide a specific pool of PI(4,5)P(2) dedicated to clathrin/AP-2-dependent receptor internalization.

Abstract
The ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) small GTPases regulate vesicular traffic and organelle structure by recruiting coat proteins, regulating phospholipid metabolism and modulating the structure of actin at membrane surfaces. Recent advances in our understanding of the signalling pathways that are regulated by ARF1 and ARF6, two of the best characterized ARF proteins, provide a molecular context for ARF protein function in fundamental biological processes, such as secretion, endocytosis, phagocytosis, cytokinesis, cell adhesion and tumour-cell invasion.

Abstract
Coat components localize to specific membrane domains, where they sort selected transmembrane proteins. To study how clathrin coats are stabilized on such domains and to identify the protein networks involved, we combined proteomic screens and in vitro liposome-based assays that recapitulate the fidelity of protein sorting in vivo. Our study identifying approximately 40 proteins on AP-1A-coated liposomes revealed that AP-1A coat assembly triggers the concomitant recruitment of Rac1, its effectors, and the Wave/Scar complex as well as that of Rab11 and Rab14. The coordinated recruitment of these different machineries requires a mosaic of membrane components comprising the GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 1, sorting signals in selected transmembrane proteins, and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate. These results demonstrate that the combinatorial use of low-affinity binding sites present on the same membrane domain accounts not only for a selective coat assembly but also for the coordinated assembly of selected machineries required for actin polymerization and subsequent membrane fusion.
