Ch 13 Pt 1 Flashcards
Endocytosis and Exocytosis
Cells continually adjust composition of their plasma membrane and internal compartments in response to need
Exocytosis - adds to membrane
endocytosis - removes some of membrane
Transport vesicle contains ___ transports___
membrane components and soluble lumenal molecules (called cargo)
Transport vesicles bud from one compartment and fuse to another; selective process
Two selectivity steps in vesicle transport
Captures right material
fuse to right membrane
Organized routes of vesicular traffic
Secretory Pathway (red arrows)
Endocytic Pathway (green arrows)
Retrieval Pathways (blue arrows)
Secretory Pathway
Red
leads outward from the ER to the Golgi apparatus and cell surface, with a side route leading to lysosomes
Endocytic Pathway
green
leads inward from plasma membrane
Retrieval Pathways
Blue
balance flow of membrane between compartments (opposite direction)
Structure of Golgi
Consists of ___
each golgi stack typically consists of___
Consists of a collection of flattened, membrane-enclosed compartments called cisternae (stack of pancakes),
each golgi stack typically consists of 4-6 cisternae
Has cis side - incoming material
Trans side - vesicle bud off from
In animal cells, tubular connections between corresponding cisternae link stacks. This forms
a single complex (near cell nucleus)
Functions of the Golgi Apparatus
Transporting, modifying, and packaging proteins and lipids into vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations.
Glycoproteins formed
Golgi Vesicles come into the cis face from the ER and leave from the trans face to the plasma membrane or lysosomes.
Functions of coated vesicles
Coat: 2 layered structure performs 2 functions:
Inner coat layer concentrates specific membrane proteins in patch, selects membrane molecules for transport (very specific to what captured)
Outer coat assembles into basketlike lattice, deforms the membrane patch and shapes the vesicle (Shape of vesicle, assembles to form shape)
Three main types of coated vesicles
Clathrin coated -from PM and between endosomal and Golgi compartments
COPI coated - (Coat proteins)-from Golgi to ER
COPII coated (Coat proteins)- bud from ER
Clathrin coated vesicles
clathrin subunit consists of ___ which assembles into ___ to ___
Clathrin (outer layer of coat)
Each clathrin subunit consists of triskelion (three legged structure)
Clathrin triskelions assemble into basketlike framework (ie hexagons) to form coated pits (buds) on cytosolic surface of membranes
Adaptor proteins in clathrin coated vesicles
form a discrete inner layer of the coat (between clathrin cage and membrane)
Bind coat to membrane and trap cargo receptors (select for specific set of proteins) and package them into vesicles
associate with PIP in membrane
AP2 - adapter proteins - associates with PIP in membrane - once bind- enhance/selective for cargo receptors
PIPs makes/identity tags for membranes (different kinds in different membranes)
PIP- phosphoglyceride - modified with phosphate groups
to fuse with target membrane the vesicle must be
uncoated
Dynamin
soluble cytoplasmic protein that assembles at the neck of each bud
regulates the timing of when vesicle buds by GTPase activity
Coat complex, termed:
Coatomer or COP complex
Non-clathrin coat observed on
isolated Golgi membranes and vesicles in transport assays.
ARF proteins assemble
COPI and clathrin coats at Golgi
ARF proteins are GTPases
Sar1 proteins assemble
COPII coats at ER membrane
(Sar1 proteins are GTPases)
