Lecture 16
Vesicle transport and targeting in the secretory pathway
COP coated vesicles
SNAREs
Protein sorting
Secretion - Golgi to plasma membrane
Retention in ER
Golgi to lysosome
Transport between organelles is
mediated by coated vesicles
Clathrin coated vesicles mainly involved in endocytosis (next time)
COP coated vesicles mediate ER to Golgi and back
Transport between ER and Golgi compartments
occurs via “COP-coated vesicles”…
Collection of 4-7 “coat proteins” = “COPs”…(aka “Coatomers” )
COP-coated vesicles function in transport between:
ER and Golgi
Golgi and ER (retrieval)
intra-Golgi
TGN and plasma membrane
Cop coated vesicles contain many proteins
COP proteins
More COP proteins
“cargo”
Lipid bilayer
Sar1
COPII-coated vesicles - ER to GolgiSarI in ER membrane
COPI coated vesicles - Golgi to ER
ARF (instead of Sar1) in Golgi membrane
We will only consider Sar1
Sar1 ARF triggers vesicle formation
Sar1:
GTPase switch
on/off
ON: binds membrane
recruits COP proteins
COP proteins then recruit
specific cargo
Sar1 -Similar to RAN in
nuclear import
GTPase (GTP Binding Proteins)
Large family (Ras) of proteins
Molecular “switches”
Pi
GAP
GDP
GTP
Sar1 GTPase
“on”
Bound to
membrane
In cytoplasm,
large amount
in “off” form

Sar1 activation exposes hydrophobic
tail and membrane insertion
Greasy foot
Sar 1 in membrane recruits COP proteins
The Ras “superfamily” of small GTPases…
• Ras: signaling and regulating cell proliferation…
>30% of human tumors have Ras mutations…
Many (not all) Ras family members associated with membranes via
covalent fatty acid tail (“greasy feet”)…
• EF-1/EF-Tu: translation…
• Ran: nuclear transport…
• Rho family (Rho, Rac, cdc42): actin assembly and
organization (in a few lectures)
• Arf/Sar family of “Coat recruitment GTPases:” COP
assembly and vesicle budding…
• Rab family: vesicle targeting and fusion (in a few minutes)
Aside: G-proteins and ATPases as molecular switches
Cells make high-affinity transient molecular complexes as trigger or switch
A paradox:
A B
Bound
GTP
GDP + Pi
A + B
Unbound
High-affinity/high-specificity = stable…
Energy input is required to dissociate high-affinity complexes…
(Example: to remove Sar 1 from membrane)
Translation:
IFs (GTP), EF-1/EF-Tu (GTP)
EF-2/EF-G (GTP)
Chaperones:
HSP70 family (ATP)
HSP60 (ATP)
SRP family:
SRP54 (GTP), SRP-Ra (GTP)
SRP-Rb (GTP)
Polymer dynamics:
Actin (ATP), Tubulin (GTP)
Dynamin (GTP)
Motors:
Myosin (ATP), Dynein (ATP)
Kinesin (ATP)
Signaling:
Heterotrimeric G proteins (GTP)
Ras family (GTP)
Summary of COPII-coated vesicle formation
COP subunits recruit specific cargo proteins…
Vesicle transport is a complex process
2. Formation of coated
transport vesicle…
3. Targeting and docking to
specific compartment…
SNAREs and Rabs

coated buds…
(ATP, GTP, and cytoplasmic
protein factors…)

Coat proteins (“COPs”)
The Snare hypothesis: v- and t-SNAREs target transport
vesicles to the correct membrane
Budding
Cargo
v-SNAREs
Uncoating,
targeting
and docking
t-SNAREs
See ECB figure 15-20
Specific pairing of V-SNAREs with T-SNAREs matches vesicle to target
membrane compartment (>20 known snares in animals cells)
Targeting and docking requires/is facilitated by specific Rab GTPase in vesicle
and Rab effector in target (~30 known Rabs in animal cells)…
Bacterial toxins target the vesicle docking
and fusion machinery of neurons
A small subunit of the toxin acts as a specific protease that cleaves and
inactivates targeting proteins
Botulism A
SNAP25 (t-SNARE)
Botulism B
VAMP (v-SNARE)
Botulism C
Syntaxin (t-SNARE)
Tetanus
VAMP (v-SNARE)
Net result is to block neuronal signaling by blocking neurotransmitter release
(regulated secretory pathway)
Vesicle transport is a multi-step process

4. Uncoating…
Sar 1
Coat proteins (“COPs”)
GTPgS and other non-hydrolyzable GTP analogs block uncoating, resulting in
accumulation of docked, coated vesicles
GTP hydrolysis by Sar1 is required for uncoating
Vesicle transport is a multi-step process

Donor

Coat proteins (“COPs”)
GEF in donor membrane promotes nucleotide exchange, activating Sar1 @ ER,
(ARF @ Golgi) and promoting coat assembly…
GTP hydrolysis serves as “timer” delaying uncoating (GAP in target membrane?)…
GTPase “cycle” provides directionality to vesicle coating/uncoating

5. Fusion…
SNARE plus
other fusion
proteins
SNAREs are necessary for membrane fusion
Much still to learn!!!
ECB 15-21
SNAREs bring two membranes into close apposition
Lipids flow between membranes - fusion
Other proteins cooperate with SNAREs to facilitate
fusion and to pry SNAREs apart

Protein sorting/targeting
Secretion - Golgi to plasma membrane
Retention in ER
Golgi to lysosome
How are proteins sorted to appropriate vesicles so that they are
transported to proper location? What are the address label?
Two secretory pathways; constitutive and regulated
Default
pathway for
ER/Golgi
proteins
If no address
label, then
secrete
ECB 15-28
Signal required to trigger
secretory granule fusion
Inside lumen is equivalent Example - neurotransmitter
to outside of cell
release
However, recent
data suggests
there may be ER
exit sequences..
For now, consider
secretion default
15.9secretory_pathway.mov
Regulated secretion
Secretory granules containing insulin in pancreatic cells
Signal for release is elevated glucose levels in blood
If secretion is default, how are resident ER proteins retained?
They aren’t!
Ex: BiP is a member of the HSP70 family that functions in the ER…

Outside
BiP escapes from ER and must be “retrieved” from the Golgi…
C-terminal KDEL in BiP sequence functions as retrieval signal…
KDEL-receptors in Golgi direct retrieval/recycling…
KKXX at C-terminus of KDEL-R binds COPI coat and targets back to ER…

Golgi to lysosome
How are proteins sorted to vesicles leaving TGN for lysosome?
Lysosomes degrade and recycle macromolecules…
ECB 15-34
Lysosomes in plant and animal cells contain acid hydrolases
(hydrolytic enzymes) for degrading/recycling macromolecules
pH of lumen is about 5 - acidic!
How are hydrolases and other proteins targeted to lysosomes?
I-cell disease helped decipher the signal for
targeting proteins to the lysosome
• Recessive mutation in single gene…
• Fibroblasts of patients contain large inclusions (I-cells)…
• Lysosomes lack normal complement of acid hydrolases…
• All lysosomal enzymes secreted (secretion is the “default” fate for
proteins in the ER-Golgi pathway)…
• Lysosomal enzymes of “wild-type” (normal) cells are modified by
phosphorylation of mannose on oligosaccharide (forming mannose-6phosphate)…
• Lysosomal proteins of I-cells lack M-6-P…
• Lysosomal targeting signal resides in carbohydrate!
Mannose-6-P targets proteins from Golgi to lysosome
