Abstract
The function, stability, and turnover of plasma membrane (PM) proteins are crucial for cellular homeostasis. Compared to soluble proteins, quality control of plasma membrane proteins is extremely challenging. Failure to meet the high quality control standards is detrimental to cellular and organismal health. J-domain proteins (JDPs) are among the most diverse group of chaperones that collaborate with other chaperones and protein degradation machinery to oversee cellular protein quality control (PQC). Although fragmented, the available literature from different models, including yeast, mammals, and plants, suggests that JDPs assist PM proteins with their synthesis, folding, and trafficking to their destination as well as their degradation, either through endocytic or proteasomal degradation pathways. Moreover, some JDPs interact directly with the membrane to regulate the stability and/or functionality of proteins at the PM. The deconvoluted picture emerging is that PM proteins are relayed from one JDP to another throughout their life cycle, further underscoring the versatility of the Hsp70:JDP machinery in the cell.

Abstract
Polarized growth requires the integration of polarity pathways with the delivery of exocytic vesicles for cell expansion and counterbalancing endocytic uptake. In budding yeast, the myosin-V Myo2 is aided by the kinesin-related protein Smy1 in carrying out the essential Sec4-dependent transport of secretory vesicles to sites of polarized growth. Overexpression suppressors of a conditional myo2 smy1 mutant identified a novel F-BAR (Fes/CIP4 homology-Bin-Amphiphysin-Rvs protein)-containing RhoGAP, Rgd3, that has activity primarily on Rho3, but also Cdc42. Internally tagged Rho3 is restricted to the plasma membrane in a gradient corresponding to cell polarity that is altered upon Rgd3 overexpression. Rgd3 itself is localized to dynamic polarized vesicles that, while distinct from constitutive secretory vesicles, are dependent on actin and Myo2 function. In vitro Rgd3 associates with liposomes in a PIP2-enhanced manner. Further, the Rgd3 C-terminal region contains several phosphorylatable residues within a reported SH3-binding motif. An unphosphorylated mimetic construct is active and highly polarized, while the phospho-mimetic form is not. Rgd3 is capable of activating Myo2, dependent on its phospho state, and Rgd3 overexpression rescues aberrant Rho3 localization and cell morphologies seen at the restrictive temperature in the myo2 smy1 mutant. We propose a model where Rgd3 functions to modulate and maintain Rho3 polarity during growth.

Abstract
During growth, filamentous fungi produce polarized cells called hyphae. It is generally presumed that polarization of hyphae is dependent upon secretion through the Spitzenkörper, as well as a mechanism called apical recycling, which maintains a balance between the tightly coupled processes of endocytosis and exocytosis. Endocytosis predominates in an annular domain called the sub-apical endocytic collar, which is located in the region of plasma membrane 1-5 μm distal to the Spitzenkörper. It has previously been proposed that one function of the sub-apical endocytic collar is to maintain the apical localization of polarization proteins. These proteins mark areas of polarization at the apices of hyphae. However, as hyphae grow, these proteins are displaced along the membrane and some must then be removed at the sub-apical endocytic collar in order to maintain the hyphoid shape. While endocytosis is fairly well characterized in yeast, comparatively little is known about the process in filamentous fungi. Here, a bioinformatics approach was utilized to identify 39 Aspergillus nidulans proteins that are predicted to be cargo of endocytosis based on the presence of an NPFxD peptide motif. This motif is a necessary endocytic signal sequence first established in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where it marks proteins for endocytosis through an interaction with the adapter protein Sla1p. It is hypothesized that some proteins that contain this NPFxD peptide sequence in A. nidulans will be potential targets for endocytosis, and therefore will localize either to the endocytic collar or to more proximal polarized regions of the cell, e.g. the apical dome or the Spitzenkörper. To test this, a subset of the motif-containing proteins in A. nidulans was tagged with GFP and the dynamic localization was evaluated. The documented localization patterns support the hypothesis that the motif marks proteins for localization to the polarized cell apex in growing hyphae.

Abstract
The actin cytoskeleton and actin-coupled endocytosis are conserved cellular processes required for the normal growth and pathogenesis of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. We have previously shown that actin regulating kinase MoArk1 regulates actin dynamics and endocytosis to play a key role in virulence of the fungus. To understand the underlying mechanism, we have characterized the actin-binding protein MoAbp1 that interacts with MoArk1 from M. oryzae. The ΔMoabp1 mutant exhibited delayed endocytosis and defects in growth, host penetration, and invasive growth. Consistent with its putative function associated with actin-binding, MoAbp1 regulates the localization of actin patches and plays a role in MoArk1 phosphorylation. In addition, MoAbp1 interacts with MoCap (adenylyl cyclase-associated protein) affecting its normal patch localization pattern and the actin protein MoAct1 through its conserved domains. Taken together, our results support a notion that MoAbp1 functions as a protein scaffold linking MoArk1, MoCap1, and MoAct1 to regulate actin cytoskeleton dynamics critical in growth and pathogenicity of the blast fungus.

Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal motor neuron degenerative disease. ALS-affected motor neurons exhibit aberrant localization of a nuclear RNA binding protein, TDP-43, into cytoplasmic aggregates, which contributes to pathology via unclear mechanisms. Here, we demonstrate that TDP-43 turnover and toxicity depend in part upon the endocytosis pathway. TDP-43 inhibits endocytosis, and co-localizes strongly with endocytic proteins, including in ALS patient tissue. Impairing endocytosis increases TDP-43 toxicity, aggregation, and protein levels, whereas enhancing endocytosis reverses these phenotypes. Locomotor dysfunction in a TDP-43 ALS fly model is also exacerbated and suppressed by impairment and enhancement of endocytic function, respectively. Thus, endocytosis dysfunction may be an underlying cause of ALS pathology. Impaired turnover of TDP-43 by impaired autophagy or proteasomal function have been suggested to be the cause of TDP-43 accumulation, a hallmark of ALS. Here the authors demonstrate that endocytosis is also important for regulating TDP-43 turnover and toxicity.

Abstract
Cell growth necessitates extensive membrane remodeling events including vesicle fusion or fission, processes that are regulated by coat proteins. The hyphal cells of filamentous fungi concentrate both exocytosis and endocytosis at the apex. This investigation focuses on clathrin in Aspergillus nidulans, with the aim of understanding its role in membrane remodeling in growing hyphae. We examined clathrin heavy chain (ClaH-GFP) which localized to three distinct subcellular structures: late Golgi (trans-Golgi equivalents of filamentous fungi), which are concentrated just behind the hyphal tip but are intermittently present throughout all hyphal cells; the region of concentrated endocytosis just behind the hyphal apex (the "endocytic collar"); and small, rapidly moving puncta that were seen trafficking long distances in nearly all hyphal compartments. ClaH localized to distinct domains on late Golgi, and these clathrin "hubs" dispersed in synchrony after the late Golgi marker PHOSBP . Although clathrin was essential for growth, ClaH did not colocalize well with the endocytic patch marker fimbrin. Tests of FM4-64 internalization and repression of ClaH corroborated the observation that clathrin does not play an important role in endocytosis in A. nidulans. A minor portion of ClaH puncta exhibited bidirectional movement, likely along microtubules, but were generally distinct from early endosomes.

Abstract
Vinculin, a 116-kDa membrane cytoskeletal protein, is an important molecule for cell adhesion; however, little is known about its other cellular functions. Here, we demonstrated that vinculin binds to Rab5 and is required for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) uptake in cells. Viunculin directly bound to Rab5 and enhanced the activation of S. aureus uptake. Over-expression of active vinculin mutants enhanced S. aureus uptake, whereas over-expression of an inactive vinculin mutant decreased S. aureus uptake. Vinculin bound to Rab5 at the N-terminal region (1-258) of vinculin. Vinculin and Rab5 were involved in the S. aureus-induced phosphorylation of MAP kinases (p38, Erk, and JNK) and IL-6 expression. Finally, vinculin and Rab5 knockdown reduced infection of S. aureus, phosphorylation of MAPKs and IL-6 expression in murine lungs. Our results suggest that vinculin binds to Rab5 and that these two molecules cooperatively enhance bacterial infection and the inflammatory response.
